Terms of Service
1. About MechanicRank
MechanicRank.com ("MechanicRank", "we", "us", "our") is a service operated by Supercanic LLC, a California limited liability company. Supercanic LLC also operates Supercanic.com and PrePurchaseAuto.com. References to "MechanicRank," "Supercanic," or "PrePurchaseAuto" in these Terms refer to Supercanic LLC and its operations under those brands.
2. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using MechanicRank.com (the "Site") or any service provided through it, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
3. Nature of the Directory
MechanicRank is an online directory of automotive service providers, including mobile mechanics, repair shops, and specialty service businesses. Listings are compiled from publicly available business information and from claims submitted by business owners. MechanicRank does not employ the businesses listed, does not guarantee their work, and does not act as their agent except where expressly stated (e.g., for Supercanic Official locations or, in the future, for businesses participating in the MechanicRank dispatch network).
4. Listing Information & Accuracy
We make reasonable efforts to keep listing information accurate but do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or current availability of any business listed. Customers should independently verify a business's licensing, insurance, hours, and service offerings before transacting. If you are a business owner and find inaccurate information about your business, please claim your listing or contact us.
5. Claiming a Listing
Business owners may claim their listing free of charge to add custom descriptions, logos, services, hours, and contact preferences. By submitting a claim, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to act on behalf of the business and that all information you provide is truthful and accurate. Claims are subject to automated and manual review. We reserve the right to reject, modify, or revoke any claim at any time.
If you add photos to your claim, you confirm that you took them or have the right to share them, and you allow MechanicRank to show them on your listing and to resize them.
6. Customer Inquiries & Bookings
When customers contact a listed business through MechanicRank, the resulting transaction is between the customer and that business. MechanicRank is not a party to the transaction unless explicitly identified as such (for example, in dispatch network jobs where Supercanic LLC acts as the booking party).
7. User Content & Marketing License
"User Content" means anything you submit to us through any channel: business descriptions, logos, photos, videos, reviews, testimonials, ratings, questions and answers, job postings, claim details, survey and interview responses, and messages you send us by form, email, text, or phone.
By submitting User Content, you grant Supercanic LLC a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, excerpt, create derivative works from, publish, publicly display, publicly perform, and distribute that User Content, in whole or in part, in any media now known or later developed.
That license covers marketing and advertising as well as operating the Site. We may use your User Content in paid and organic advertising, social media posts, email and text campaigns, printed material, case studies, sales and training material, press, and on any site or product operated by Supercanic LLC, including Supercanic.com, PrePurchaseAuto.com, Your Shop Desk, and any successor or affiliated brand. We may use your business name, logo, city, and star rating alongside that content to identify it.
We are not obliged to use your User Content, to credit you, or to pay you for any use. You waive any right to inspect or approve a particular use, and any moral rights you may hold in the User Content, to the extent the law allows.
You represent and warrant that you own or otherwise control all rights in the User Content you submit, that it does not infringe anyone else's rights, and that you have permission from any identifiable person appearing in a photo or video you send us. Do not send us anything you are not free to give us these rights in.
Deleting your content or your listing stops future use going forward where we can reasonably do so, but does not require us to recall material already printed, published, or distributed. Reviewer email addresses are never published — see the Privacy Policy for what we do with personal information.
8. Prohibited Conduct
You may not use the Site to: submit false or misleading information; impersonate another business or person; scrape or systematically harvest data; submit spam, malware, or harassing content; attempt to disrupt or compromise Site security; violate any applicable law.
9. Intellectual Property
The MechanicRank name, logo, and Site design are property of Supercanic LLC. The Supercanic name and logo are also property of Supercanic LLC. Business names, logos, and content submitted by claim remain the property of their respective owners.
10. Disclaimers
THE SITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THE QUALITY, SAFETY, OR LEGALITY OF ANY BUSINESS LISTED. CUSTOMERS USE LISTED BUSINESSES AT THEIR OWN RISK.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SUPERCANIC LLC, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR ANY TRANSACTION WITH A LISTED BUSINESS. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Supercanic LLC from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your interaction with any business listed on the Site.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Riverside County, California.
