Terms of Use

Effective 11 November 2026 · Version 2026-11

These terms are an agreement between you and DVB-TECH L.L.C., operating under the name Circuitus ("Circuitus", "we"), a company registered in Delaware, USA, about your use of circuitus.org. By creating an account or using the site, you accept them. If you don't agree, please don't use Circuitus.

1. What Circuitus is

Circuitus is an online marketplace where people and businesses list vehicles, machinery and boats for sale, and buyers contact them. We are not a party to any sale. We don't own, inspect, buy, sell or broker the vehicles listed, and we don't act as an agent for buyers or sellers. Each sale is a contract only between the buyer and the seller.

2. Who can use Circuitus

• You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into contracts.
• Business accounts must be opened by someone authorised to act for the business.
• You may not use Circuitus if you live in, or act for anyone in, a country or region under US sanctions, or if you appear on a US or EU sanctions list.
• One person or business, one account. Keep your password private; you are responsible for activity on your account.

Verification

To get the "Verified" badge, private sellers upload a photo of an identity document and a selfie, and dealers upload company registration documents; we may also do a short video call. We check them by hand and delete the uploaded images after our decision, keeping only the result and the date. The badge means the identity or company was checked on that date. It is not a guarantee of the person, the vehicle or the deal.

3. Rules for sellers

• You must own the vehicle or have the legal right to sell it, and it must be free of undisclosed loans, liens or legal restrictions.
• Listings must be accurate: real photos of the actual vehicle, correct year, mileage or engine hours, and every defect you know about, using the defect checklist.
• You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to your sale, including export rules, taxes, registration and consumer protection rules.
• Prices shown to buyers must be the real asking price. Your hidden minimum price is never shown to buyers. When a buyer's offer meets it, the offer is accepted automatically, and you agree to honour that acceptance.
• Not allowed: stolen vehicles, vehicles with tampered mileage or identification numbers, weapons or military equipment, and anything illegal to sell in your country or the buyer's.

4. Rules for buyers

• Offers are binding commitments to buy at that price if accepted, subject to the vehicle matching its description.
• You are responsible for checking that you can import and register the vehicle in your country.
• Delivery costs, import taxes, registration fees and exchange rates shown on Circuitus are estimates to help you compare. The actual amounts are set by carriers and authorities and may differ.

5. Payment between buyer and seller

Buyers pay sellers directly. Circuitus never receives, holds or transfers the money for a vehicle, and takes no commission or percentage of any sale. Buyer and seller agree the payment method, timing, delivery and handover between themselves and are each responsible for them.

• Pay only to a bank account in the name of the seller or the seller's company. Never pay by gift cards, cryptocurrency or money-transfer apps, and be wary of prices that look too good to be true.
• See the vehicle, or get an independent inspection, before paying in full.
• For deals between countries we recommend an independent licensed escrow service (for example Escrow.com), which holds the money and pays the seller only after delivery. That service works under its own terms and fees; buyer and seller agree who pays them. Circuitus is not a party to it.

Circuitus is not responsible for payments made between users and cannot recover them. Report suspected fraud to us straight away so we can act on the account.

6. Cross-border sales and sanctions

Some cross-border sales need an export compliance check and a declaration that the vehicle will not be re-exported to a sanctioned country. We may pause, refuse or cancel a listing, offer or account where we believe a transaction could break sanctions or export laws.

7. Fees

Circuitus earns only from services, never from the sale itself. Browsing and buying are free. Private listings are free. Dealer plans, boosts and credit packs are paid as described on the site, by bank transfer against an invoice from DVB-TECH L.L.C. (or by card where offered). A plan starts when payment is received and runs until the date shown in your account; it is not renewed unless you pay the next invoice. Free trial periods end on the date shown; you choose whether to continue on a paid plan. Boosted listings are always labelled "Sponsored". Credits are worth €1 each in Circuitus services, don't expire, have no cash value and can't be refunded or transferred, except where the law requires.

Events

Organisers can pay credits to publish motor-vehicle events. We check every event before publishing and may refuse or remove any event at our discretion. Events must follow the event rules shown on the publishing form, including: lawful events at real venues with any permissions needed; no racing, speed runs, drifting or stunts on public roads; accurate details; no harmful content. Circuitus does not organise, run, insure or sell tickets for events; the organiser alone is responsible for them. If we don't publish an event, the credits are refunded; if a published event is removed for breaking the rules, they are not.

8. Reviews

Only buyers and sellers who completed a deal can review each other. Reviews must be honest and based on your own experience. We give the same credits for every review, whatever the rating. We check reviews before publishing and reject them only if they are fake, spam, abusive, contain personal data, or are not about the deal. See How reviews work.

9. Your content

You keep ownership of the photos and text you upload. You give Circuitus a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to show, translate, resize and promote them on Circuitus and in our marketing for as long as they are listed, and a reasonable time after for archived pages. You confirm you have the right to upload them.

10. Automatic tools

Translations, listing drafts, fair-price scores and the help assistant are produced automatically and may contain mistakes. Check important details with the other party before you rely on them.

11. Our rights

We may remove listings, messages or reviews, and suspend or close accounts, that break these terms or the law, or that put other users at risk. Where reasonable, we will tell you why.

12. Liability

Circuitus is provided "as is". We don't guarantee the condition, legality, value or delivery of any vehicle, or the truth of what users post. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses arising from transactions between users, and our total liability to you is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot be excluded.

13. Disputes

Disputes about a vehicle are between buyer and seller; we may help you communicate but are not obliged to decide them. These terms are governed by the laws of Delaware, USA. If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country and may bring claims in your local courts.

14. Changes

We may update these terms. If changes are significant, we will notify you by email or on the site before they take effect. Continuing to use Circuitus after that means you accept the new version.
