✍️ Terms of Use – SmartVan

1. Purpose

SmartVan is an AI-based assistance system providing indicative information about motorhomes, campervans and caravans, drawing from public manuals and online sources. Our chatbot operates on a third-party platform.

2. Nature of AI

Users acknowledge they are interacting with an artificial intelligence system classified as limited risk under the European artificial intelligence Regulation (AI Act). Responses are automatically generated and may contain errors or inaccuracies.

3. Responsible Use

Users agree to use the system appropriately, acknowledging that:

  • There is no direct human supervision.
  • The information does not replace professional technical advice.
  • Critical decisions (e.g., safety or maintenance) should not be made solely based on SmartVan's information.

4. Limitation of Liability

SmartVan is an automated AI assistance system. The information provided is indicative and may contain errors. It should not be considered definitive technical or legal advice. Users assume full responsibility for decisions made based on SmartVan's responses. The developing company is not responsible for damages arising from the use, interpretation, or application of AI-generated information.

5. Motorhome, campervan and caravan technical information

Users may voluntarily provide information about their motorhome, campervan or caravan and its installed components. This information is used exclusively to personalise SmartVan's assistant responses and offer recommendations tailored to the vehicle's configuration.

Users are responsible for the veracity and accuracy of the data provided. The processing of such information is carried out under the legal basis of legitimate interest and/or user consent, in accordance with Article 6 of the GDPR.

5.1. Assistant setup and changes

Configuration and changes policy updated 16 October 2026. The previous version is retained in the repository history.

Here, “setup” means personalising the SmartVan assistant using information about the vehicle and its equipment. It does not mean physical installation, technical design or vehicle certification.

1. Initial setup and planned equipment

Initial setup covers equipment identified and reported before setup is completed, including items purchased or chosen but not yet installed. Planned and installed equipment are recorded separately. Blank form fields mean information is pending, not that an item does not exist. Setup is completed only when SmartVan tells the customer the assistant is ready and specifies the equipment recorded; submitting the form alone does not complete it.

2. Included updates and minor changes

At no extra cost, we correct SmartVan's errors, correct or update details of equipment already recorded, update its manuals, and add or replace a single component where this does not require reworking the setup of other systems. For example, adding a fridge or replacing it with another model without changing the rest of the installation.

3. Additional setup

Additional setup may be needed when several systems left pending at the end of initial setup are added together, or when changes to electrical, water, gas or related systems require substantial reworking of the assistant's setup. For example, adding heating, hot water and a cooker later with changes requiring a review of the installation's configuration. The deciding factor is the scope of work, not each new component, message or document. Each additional setup covers the equipment and changes agreed in a single request; supporting documents needed to complete that scope do not trigger another setup.

4. Complete vehicle change

Changing to a completely different vehicle requires a new personalisation of the SmartVan assistant.

5. Price, discount and consent

The base price for additional setup is €25 including VAT. Existing customers receive a 30% discount on additional setup, making its final price €17.50 including VAT. A complete vehicle change costs €25 including VAT, including for existing customers; the 30% discount does not apply to a vehicle change. Before any paid work, SmartVan will explain the scope and final price and request express acceptance. An enquiry or form submission does not authorise a charge. These are not recurring charges and do not change subscription or initial setup prices.

6. Data Protection

SmartVan does not intentionally collect sensitive personal data or use user data to train the system. However, using the assistant or associated forms may involve the automatic processing of user-entered information, such as email addresses or vehicle technical data.

  • It will not be shared with third parties without express consent.
  • It will be sent to the corresponding artificial intelligence models anonymously.
  • It can be deleted at the user's request by writing to: info@smartvan.es.

The technical infrastructure supporting SmartVan may be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA). However, user data is not used for AI model training or for purposes other than those strictly necessary for service operation.

7. Technical Compatibility and Channel Limitations

The SmartVan assistant operates through its web platform and authorized messaging channels (such as WhatsApp in relevant plans), which may be subject to technical and connectivity conditions of the user. Therefore:

  • The availability and functionality of the assistant may be affected by temporary service outages, maintenance work, or connectivity issues from third-party networks.
  • Some functionalities (e.g., sending images, links, or technical documents) may vary depending on the chosen channel or contracted plan.
  • Response speed and quality depend on the user's internet connection and telecommunication service availability.
  • Compatibility with all devices, outdated browsers, or legacy operating systems is not guaranteed. Users are responsible for using an updated and functional web browser or messaging application.

8. artificial intelligence Models

SmartVan uses third-party artificial intelligence models to generate responses. These models may have inherent limitations or temporary outages. Users acknowledge that:

  • The company does not control the operation or availability of these models.
  • Generated responses may not be accurate or up-to-date.
  • Users must verify critical information with official sources or qualified professionals.

9. Third-Party Chatbot Platforms

The SmartVan chatbot is built and operated using a third-party software platform. By interacting with our chatbot, you acknowledge that an external entity provides the underlying platform.

  • User Content: Any data, configurations, or workflows you submit or generate through the chatbot are your property. However, you grant the third-party platform a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, host, and process such content solely to operate and improve the platform's services.
  • Third-Party Platform Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by law, the third-party platform provider will not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or losses resulting from the use, delay, or inability to use its platform, or from content submitted or actions taken by SmartVan's end-users.
  • Applicable Law for Third-Party Platform: The terms of service of the third-party platform may be governed and interpreted under laws different from SmartVan's.

10. Applicable Law

These conditions are governed by current Spanish and European legislation, especially the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the LOPDGDD, and the European artificial intelligence Regulation (AI Act).
