Your service package of the NissanConnect Services will remain in force for an initial term of three years as of the warranty start date of the Vehicle. This means that the duration of the initial term is independent from the date of the date of activation of the NissanConnect Services. These initial terms for the service package is herein referred to as the „Initial Service Period(s)”.

The Initial Service Period is delivered free of charge for a newly purchased Vehicle that is equipped with a telematics control unit.

If you are the second or subsequent owner of the Vehicle then the NissanConnect Services package is available until the end of the complimentary Initial Service Period. If the NissanConnect Services have not been activated by the first owner, you are not entitled to the Initial Service Period.

Approximately 30 days before the expiry of the Initial Service Period for your service package, you will be notified by e-mail and you will be given the opportunity to renew your subscription on-line via the Website under the terms and conditions then in force. In case you decide to renew your subscription, or in case you are not the first owner of the Vehicle and you are activating the NissanConnect Services for the first time, you will be asked to submit an on-line form of payment and pay the subscription fee at the rate then in force („Subscription Fee”).

You will also be given the opportunity to choose an automatic renewal at the time of your first renewal. ONCE YOU HAVE VALIDATED THE RENEWAL OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FOR A ONE-YEAR PERIOD AND IF YOU CHOOSE THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL OPTION, YOUR NISSANCONNECT SERVICES WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW, AS OF THE EXPIRY DATE OF THE INITIAL SERVICE PERIOD OR EACH RENEWAL, FOR SUCCESSIVE ONE-YEAR RENEWAL PERIODS („Renewal Service Period(s)“) UNLESS AND UNTIL THE NISSANCONNECT SERVICES ARE TERMINATED BY YOU OR US AS ALLOWED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

Each year, approximately 30 days before the expiry of each Renewal Service Period, you will be notified by e-mail and you will be given the opportunity to renew your subscription on-line via the Website. In addition, every time you decide to renew the relevant NissanConnect Services packages, your payment account will be automatically charged in consideration of the NissanConnect Services during the Renewal Service Period. By not renewing the NissanConnect services, your subscription will be automatically cancelled at the expiration day.

2.2. Your Termination Rights. You can terminate your NissanConnect Services online via the Website or at any time by contacting us. If you terminate the NissanConnect Services before the end of the Initial Service Period or Renewal Service Period as the case may be, you will not be reimbursed, and in case you choose to re-activate the NissanConnect Services later, you will be charged the full price corresponding to a full Renewal Service Period.

2.3. Our Termination and Suspension Rights.

We may terminate your NissanConnect Services at any time and without cause, in which case we will give you notice 30 days prior to the effective date of termination after which your NissanConnect Services will end. This means that we can decide to cease providing the NissanConnect Services to you at any time and for any reason, even for reasons unrelated to you or your account with us. In case we decide to terminate the NissanConnect Services in the event of termination of any agreement between us and any Service Provider on which we are dependent to provide the NissanConnect Services, we will use our best endeavours to give you the 30-day notice mentioned above.

Also, we may terminate your NissanConnect Services without prior notice to you for any good cause. This means, for example, we can terminate your NissanConnect Services immediately if you breach any part of this Agreement, if you interfere with our efforts to provide the NissanConnect Services, if you interfere with our business, or if your NissanConnect Services is used for illegal or improper purposes. You do not have any right to have NissanConnect Services reactivated, even if you cure any of these problems. We can also suspend your NissanConnect Services for network or system maintenance or improvement, or if there is network congestion, or if we suspect your NissanConnect Services are being used for any purpose that would allow us to terminate it. In such events, we will not reimburse any amounts you have paid in advance for the NissanConnect Services.

We also reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to stop offering the NissanConnect Services and not to accept the renewal of your NissanConnect Services without incurring any liability whatsoever.

2.4. If you sell your Vehicle or purchase a used Vehicle

Notification to us

If you sell your Vehicle or end its lease or if your Vehicle is scrapped or destroyed while you own or hold it prior to the expiration of the Initial Service Period, we ask you to notify us by contacting Nissan Customer Service or by removing directly the Vehicle from your account on the Website.

If you sell or transfer your Vehicle and fail to notify us, we will have no way of knowing that the Vehicle is sold and may continue to collect data in the belief that it is data concerning you. In addition, you will remain responsible for any liability incurred under this Agreement based on the use or misuse of the NissanConnect Services. We are not responsible for any privacy-related damages you may suffer if you fail to notify us of your end of lease or sale of your Vehicle. Whether or not you notify us of your end of lease or sale of your Vehicle, you agree that you shall not, nor attempt to, access or use the NissanConnect Services or any of the data relating to your Vehicle following the sale, transfer or end of lease of your Vehicle.

You understand and agree that in case you do not notify us, and in case the subsequent owner of the Vehicle subscribes to the NissanConnect Services related to the Vehicle, the new owner’s profile will overwrite your profile and your NissanConnect Services subscription will automatically end.

You cannot transfer your NissanConnect Services to another vehicle. The NissanConnect Services remain attached to the Vehicle (similar to the warranty). If you sell your Vehicle (or returned it at the end of a lease) without having cancelled your subscription, this subscription will be automatically transferred to the new owner as long as the new owner proves the ownership by calling Nissan Customer Service or by registering the Vehicle on the Website.

Termination of your NissanConnect Services

If you sell your Vehicle or end its lease, you have the opportunity to terminate this Agreement regarding your NissanConnect Services before removing it from your account on the Website but you do not need to do so.

If you do not terminate the Agreement, the subsequent owner of the Vehicle may benefit from the NissanConnect Services for free during the rest of the Initial Services Period or Renewal Service Period. By terminating this Agreement in the course of the Initial Service Period or any Renewal Service Period, the subsequent owner will not leverage the potential remaining period of your NissanConnect Services. We do not recommend such action as it will decrease the attractiveness of your Vehicle.

However, if you sell your Vehicle or end its lease, you undertake to remove the Vehicle from your account as soon as possible on the Website in order to allow the activation of the Vehicles under a new account. If we are otherwise appropriately informed that you have sold your Vehicle and ended your lease, we reserve the right to deregister the Vehicle from your account and allow the new owner or lessee to register the Vehicle on his/her account.

If you sell or transfer your Vehicle and fail to remove the Vehicle from your account, Nissan may continue to collect data in the belief that it is data concerning you. In addition, you will remain responsible for any liability incurred under this Agreement on the use or misuse of NissanConnect. Nissan is not responsible for any privacy-related damages you may suffer if you fail to remove the Vehicle from your account. If you are no longer the owner or the authorized user of the Vehicle you agree that you shall not, nor attempt to, access or use the NissanConnect Services in relation to such Vehicle or any data relating to the Vehicle.

3. FEES, PAYMENT, BILLING AND TAXES POLICY

The NissanConnect Services are free of charge during the relevant Initial Service Period of your service package. After its Initial Service Period, your service package will require a valid subscription; therefore, if the three-year complimentary period of your service package is over or within 30 days of being over, you must pay for the service package to continue your use of the NissanConnect Services.

If you choose not to renew your subscription to the NissanConnect Services prior to the end of the Initial Service Period of the relevant package, your NissanConnect Services will automatically end at the end of the applicable Initial Service Period. If you choose to renew your subscription according to the process described above, you agree to be charged at the then current yearly subscription fee („Subscription Fee”) in consideration of the provision of the NissanConnect Services to your Vehicle during the Renewal Service Period. At the time of the first renewal, you will have the opportunity to set an automatic renewal mechanism for the next Renewal Service Period. In such case, you understand and agree that at the end of the Renewal Service Period, your subscription to the NissanConnect Services will be automatically renewed until you express your willingness to terminate the automatic subscription mechanism or terminate the subscription itself in accordance with this Agreement .

If you are not the first owner of the Vehicle and if the NissanConnect Services had not been activated by the former owner, or if the first owner has terminated his/her subscription agreement, you will have to pay the Subscription Fee at the rate then in force to benefit from the NissanConnect Services.

You understand and agree that the subscription to the NissanConnect Services is attached to your Vehicle and you cannot transfer the NissanConnect Services to another vehicle. If you do not own or use your Vehicle during a given Initial or Renewal Service Period, we will not reimburse any part of your Subscription Fee.

If you purchase or lease a previously owned or leased Vehicle and the former owner’s or lessee’s subscription is still active and within any valid Initial or Renewal Service Period, you should register as the new owner. If you desire to use the NissanConnect Services you should subscribe and activate the NissanConnect Services online via the Website during the Initial Service Period or the Renewal Service Period, as applicable.

The NissanConnect Services are attached to the Vehicle. Once you have paid the Subscription Fee, you cannot be reimbursed for any reason whatsoever.

Your exclusive remedy and the total liability of the mobile service provider in connection with the NissanConnect Services, including failure or disruption of mobile services, is subject to the liability terms set out in this agreement.

7.3. Technology and Communications. The NissanConnect Services cannot work unless your Vehicle is in a place where our network carrier has coverage. The NissanConnect Services that involve location information about your Vehicle cannot work unless GPS satellite signals are unobstructed, available in that place and compatible with the NissanConnect Services hardware as well.

7.4. Telecommunications/GPS Changes. The NissanConnect Services system uses digital wireless telecommunications technology and GPS technology that are outside of our control. Telecommunications technologies have been known to change over time, resulting in the obsolescence of certain telecommunications networks. If the telecommunications infrastructure, the public internet or GPS technology required by the NissanConnect Services system changes in a way that results in incompatibility of those technologies with the NissanConnect Services system, then the NissanConnect Services might not work and we may be forced to terminate your NissanConnect Services. If that happens, we will notify you of the effective date of termination and describe each of our rights and obligations. We are not responsible for and do not provide any guarantee or warranty regarding the telecommunications technology and GPS used to support NissanConnect Services. We are not responsible for any modifications made by those who provide these technologies, and any loss of service resulting from it.

7.5. Content Providers. Certain Service Providers impose further terms and conditions on providing services (for example, the end user terms covering navigation and location data). By using NissanConnect Services, you also agree to be bound by those additional terms and conditions. Nissan makes no representations regarding the availability of any applications or of the content you select when using the NissanConnect Services and cannot be held responsible for application availability or the content provided to you.

7.6. Maps and Navigation. The routing data that we provide to you is based on the map information available to us during the manufacturing process, but may be inaccurate or incomplete when first used by you. For example, our routing data may not include information about one-way roads, turn restrictions, construction projects, seasonal roads, detours or new roads. It may suggest using a road that is now closed for construction or a turn that is prohibited by signs at the intersection. In addition, traffic, weather and other events may cause road conditions to differ from the results generated. Therefore, you should always use good judgment, obey traffic and roadway laws and instructions and evaluate whether it is safe and legal based on current traffic, weather and other conditions to follow the directions provided by the NissanConnect Services or your Vehicle's navigation system. Nissan makes no representations regarding the completeness or accuracy of the map information provided to you other than it is based on the most current map information available to us when you subscribe to the NissanConnect Services. Nissan will not be held responsible for any inaccuracies or incompleteness of the map data provided to you.

7.7. Geography and Environment. There are other circumstances that we do not and cannot control that may prevent us from providing NissanConnect Services to you at any particular time or place, or that may impair the quality of the NissanConnect Services. Some examples are hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather, electrical system design and architecture of your Vehicle, damage to important parts of your Vehicle in an accident, or wireless phone network congestion. Nissan will not be responsible or liable for any inability to use the NissanConnect Services due to any of the above circumstances.

7.8. Outside Our Control. We are not responsible for any delay or failure in performance if such failure or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions. Additionally, we are not responsible if such failure or delay is caused by acts of nature, or forces or causes beyond our reasonable control. Examples include public utility electrical failure, acts of war, government actions, terrorism, civil disturbances, labor shortages or difficulties (regardless of cause), or equipment failures including Internet, computer, telecommunication or other equipment failures.

7.9. Available Information. The NissanConnect Services may be limited to certain geographic areas where map data and/or content providers are available in those areas, which may be less than that which is otherwise generally available.

7.9. Vehicle integrity and information. For use of the NissanConnect Services your Vehicle must have a working electrical system including, in case of an electro vehicle, adequate battery power. The NissanConnect Services may not work if you try to add, connect or modify any equipment or software in your Vehicle (such as plugging devices in to the Vehicle’s electrical system or diagnostic port, or otherwise modifying the Vehicle).

8. WARRANTIES & LIABILTY

8.1. No Warranties. Warranties are special kinds of promises. Your Vehicle's limited warranty or hardware maker's limited warranty (if applicable) includes the NissanConnect Services equipment in your Vehicle, BUT DOES NOT COVER THE NISSANCONNECT SERVICES OR THE WIRELESS SERVICE. In addition, we cannot promise uninterrupted or problem-free service, and cannot promise that the data or information provided to you will be error-free. ALL DATA AND INFORMATION IS PROVIDED TO YOU ON AN „AS IS“ BASIS. NEITHER WE, NOR ANY THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY, MAKE ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT NISSANCONNECT SERVICES OR ABOUT ANY DATA OR INFORMATION OR SERVICES PROVIDED THROUGH IT. THIS MEANS, AMONG OTHER THINGS, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW NO WARRANTIES OF CONTENT, QUALITY, ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, COMPLETENESS, CORRECTNESS, RELIABILITY, NONINFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL SUCH WARRANTIES ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

8.2. Liability. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or exclude our liability for (i) death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or intent; (ii) gross negligence, intent, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by any applicable law, including any mandatory product liability law. Subject to the foregoing, we are not liable to you for any losses, damages, liabilities, claims and expenses (including but not limited to legal costs and defence or settlement costs) whatsoever, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising out of or referable to the provision or use of NissanConnect Services, however caused, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), statute or otherwise. We will not be liable to you for any loss or damage (even if foreseeable) arising under or in connection with use of, or inability to use, the NissanConnect Services or, use of or reliance on the NissanConnect Services.

We will not be liable to you or anyone else for any loss resulting from a cause over which we do not have control. This includes failure of electronic or mechanical equipment or communications lines (including telephone, cable and internet), unauthorised access, viruses, theft, operator errors, severe or extraordinary weather (including flood, earthquake, or other act of God), fire, war, insurrection, terrorist act, riot, labour dispute or other labour problems, accident, emergency or action of government. We will not be liable to you or anyone else for any loss or damage caused by a virus, distributed denial-of-service attack, or other technologically harmful material that may infect devices, equipment, programs, data or other proprietary material due to your use of the NissanConnect Services, our Website or apps, or on any website or apps linked to it.

9. General

9.1. Applicable Law. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and except as explicitly provided otherwise, this Agreement and any disputes arising out of or relating to it will be governed by the laws of Ireland without regard to its conflict of law principles, and by any applicable tariffs, wherever filed. You and we agree that any disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or your use of NissanConnect Services shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ireland.

9.2. We Can Assign these Terms of Use. We can assign this Agreement in whole or in part to anyone we choose. You may not assign these Terms of Use or your obligations to anyone else without Nissan's prior consent.

9.3. This is the Entire Agreement. This Agreement (these terms and conditions and any other Nissan documents incorporated in them) constitute the entire agreement between you and us. It supersedes all other agreements or representations, oral or written, between us, past or present, and may not be amended save as provided in this Agreement. If any part of this Agreement is considered invalid by a court or arbitrator, the rest of it will remain enforceable. Even after these Terms of Use have ended, their provisions will govern any disputes arising out of or relating to it (unless it has been replaced by a new agreement between us). It will also be binding on your heirs and successors and on our successors. No waiver of any part of this Agreement, or of any breach of it, in any one instance will require us to waive any other instance or breach. IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES WE MIGHT DECIDE TO PROVIDE YOU SERVICE VOLUNTARILY EVEN IF YOU WOULD NOT OTHERWISE QUALIFY. THIS WILL NOT BE A WAIVER OR REQUIRE US TO DO SO AGAIN. YOU AGREE WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANYTHING RESULTING FROM OUR PROVISION OF SUCH SERVICE.
