<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">1. What cookies are</h2>
<p>
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They allow a
site to remember things between visits (for example, that you're signed in) and to
measure how the site is used. This policy explains how FuelAlert uses cookies and
similar technologies, and how you can manage them.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">2. Cookies we use</h2>
<p>
FuelAlert uses only <strong>essential</strong> cookies &mdash; cookies that are strictly
necessary to deliver the service you've asked for. Under the Privacy and Electronic
Communications Regulations (PECR), these do not require your consent, but we list them
here for transparency.
</p>
<p>
For aggregated usage metrics we run our own self-hosted instance of
<strong>Umami Analytics</strong>, which is <strong>cookieless</strong> &mdash; it does
not set any cookies, does not use device fingerprinting, and does not track you across
sites. Because no personal data is collected, no consent is required.

title="Refund & Cancellation Policy"
heading="Refund &amp; Cancellation Policy"
lastUpdated="{{ now()->format('j F Y') }}"
metaDescription="Your right to cancel a FuelAlert subscription, including the 14-day cooling-off period under UK law.">
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">1. Your 14-day right to cancel</h2>
<p>
Under the <strong>Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges)
Regulations 2013</strong>, you have <strong>14 days</strong> from the date you subscribe
to a paid plan to cancel without giving a reason. This is sometimes called the
"cooling-off period".
</p>
<p>
This 14-day right applies to <strong>new subscribers only</strong>. It does not apply to
subsequent automatic renewals of an existing subscription.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3 rounded-lg border-l-4 border-accent bg-white/70 p-6">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">2. Express consent to start the service immediately</h2>
<p>
When you subscribe, we ask you to choose whether the paid features should be available
to you immediately. If you tick the consent box and start using paid features within the
14-day window, you expressly acknowledge that:
</p>
<ul class="list-disc space-y-1 pl-6">
<li>The service is being supplied to you straight away;</li>
<li>
<strong>You will lose your right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations
2013 once the service has been fully supplied</strong> (i.e. once you have used the
paid features during the cooling-off period).
</li>
</ul>
<p>
If you do <strong>not</strong> tick the express-consent box, your subscription is still
created but paid features remain inactive until the cooling-off period ends, or until
you change your mind and confirm consent.
</p>
<p>
If you cancel within the 14-day window <strong>before</strong> using any paid features,
you receive a <strong>full refund</strong>. If you cancel within the window after using
some paid features, we may reduce the refund proportionally to reflect usage, as
permitted by the Regulations.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">3. How to cancel</h2>
<p>You can cancel a subscription in either of these ways:</p>
<ul class="list-disc space-y-1 pl-6">
<li>From your account: <strong>Settings &rarr; Subscription &rarr; Cancel</strong>.</li>
<li>By emailing <a href="mailto:[PLACEHOLDER: hello@fuelalert.co.uk]" class="text-accent underline">[PLACEHOLDER: hello@fuelalert.co.uk]</a> from the address on your account.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Unless you are exercising the 14-day right above, cancellation takes effect at the end
of the current billing period. You keep access to paid features until that date.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">4. Refunds outside the 14-day period</h2>
<p>
Outside the 14-day cooling-off window, subscription fees are <strong>non-refundable</strong>
for the remainder of the period you have paid for. You keep access to paid features
until the end of that period; the subscription simply does not renew.
</p>
<p>
We may issue discretionary refunds where there has been a service failure on our side or
where required by law.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">5. Annual subscriptions</h2>
<p>
The 14-day cooling-off right applies to annual subscriptions in the same way as monthly
subscriptions. After the 14 days, annual fees are non-refundable; we do not issue
pro-rata refunds for unused months of an annual plan.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">6. Failed payments and involuntary cancellation</h2>
<p>
If a renewal payment fails, we and Stripe will retry the payment over a short period and
email you. Paid features are suspended after the final unsuccessful retry. Your account
itself is <strong>not deleted</strong>; you can resume by updating your payment method.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">7. How long refunds take</h2>
<p>
Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method via Stripe and typically
arrive in your account within 5&ndash;10 business days, depending on your bank or card
provider.
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">

We may add, remove, or change features over time. Where changes materially reduce the
paid service, we will give you reasonable notice and, where appropriate, a way to cancel.

<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">3. Your account</h2>
<ul class="list-disc space-y-1 pl-6">
<li>You must be at least 18 years old and resident in the United Kingdom to create an account.</li>
<li>The information you provide must be accurate and kept up to date.</li>
<li>One account per person. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure.</li>
<li>You are responsible for activity that takes place under your account.</li>
<li>We may suspend or close accounts where these terms are seriously or repeatedly breached.</li>
</ul>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">4. Subscriptions, billing and payment</h2>
<p>
Paid plans are billed in advance, either monthly or annually. The current price for each
plan is shown on the <a class="text-accent underline" href="/#pricing">pricing page</a> at the time you subscribe.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Auto-renewal.</strong> Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each
billing period at the then-current price, unless you cancel before the renewal date. By
subscribing you authorise FuelAlert &mdash; through our payment processor Stripe &mdash;
to charge your nominated payment method at each renewal.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Failed payments.</strong> If a payment fails, we and Stripe will retry the
payment over the following days. We will email you when this happens. Persistent failure
will cause your paid features to be suspended; your account itself is not deleted.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Price changes.</strong> If we change the price of your plan, we will give you at
least 30 days' notice by email before the new price takes effect on your next renewal.
You may cancel before the change takes effect.
</p>
<p>
<strong>VAT.</strong> Prices include UK VAT where applicable.
<strong>[PLACEHOLDER: verify before launch &mdash; FuelAlert is currently below the UK VAT registration threshold and therefore does not charge VAT.]</strong>
</p>
</section>
<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">5. Cancellation and refunds</h2>
<p>
You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation
stops the next renewal; you keep access to paid features until the end of the current
billing period.
</p>
<p>
New subscribers have a <strong>14-day right to cancel</strong> under the Consumer
Contracts Regulations 2013. Important details &mdash; including the express-consent
mechanism that affects this right &mdash; are set out in our
<a class="text-accent underline" href="{{ route('legal.refund') }}">Refund &amp; Cancellation Policy</a>.

<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">6. Acceptable use</h2>
<p>You agree not to:</p>
<ul class="list-disc space-y-1 pl-6">
<li>Scrape, reverse-engineer, or bulk-extract data from the service.</li>
<li>Resell or redistribute fuel price data taken from FuelAlert.</li>
<li>Use the service for any unlawful purpose.</li>
<li>Attempt to circumvent or compromise our security measures.</li>
<li>Use automated tools to make queries beyond what a single human user would reasonably make.</li>
</ul>

<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">7. Accuracy of price data</h2>
<p>
Fuel prices shown on FuelAlert are sourced from official UK government data feeds
(including the Pump Watch / Fuel Finder transparency schemes) and refreshed
periodically. Stations can change prices at any time, and there is usually a delay
between a forecourt change and the feed update.
</p>
<p>
We make reasonable efforts to display accurate prices but <strong>we cannot guarantee
that the price shown will match the price at the pump</strong> when you arrive.
<strong>Always confirm the price at the pump before fuelling.</strong>
</p>
<p>
We are not liable for any loss arising from inaccurate, delayed, or missing price data,
including the cost of a wasted journey or any difference between the price shown and the
price charged.

<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">8. Forecasts and predictions</h2>
<p>
FuelAlert may show forecasts and recommendations (e.g. "fill up now" or "wait"). These
are <strong>informational only</strong>, are not financial advice, and should not be
relied upon as a guarantee of future prices. Past trends do not guarantee future prices.
We do not warrant the accuracy of any forecast.

You receive a limited, non-exclusive, revocable licence to use the service for personal,
non-commercial purposes.

<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">10. Third-party services</h2>
<p>
We use <strong>Stripe</strong> to process payments. Your use of Stripe is also subject
to Stripe's own terms and privacy policy. We may use other third-party processors to
run the service; these are named in our
<a class="text-accent underline" href="{{ route('legal.privacy') }}">Privacy Policy</a>.

<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">11. Limitation of liability</h2>
<p>
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury
caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability
that cannot be excluded under UK consumer law. Your statutory rights as a consumer are
not affected.
</p>
<p>Subject to the paragraph above:</p>
<ul class="list-disc space-y-1 pl-6">
<li>We exclude liability for indirect, consequential, or business losses.</li>
<li>
For paying subscribers, our total liability to you in any 12-month period is capped
at the total amount you paid in subscription fees during that period.
</li>
<li>
We do not accept liability for issues caused by third-party services we rely on,
including but not limited to outages or errors at our payment processor, hosting
provider, or upstream data sources.
</li>
</ul>

<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">12. Termination</h2>
<p>
You may stop using the service and close your account at any time. We may terminate or
suspend access for serious breach of these terms, with reasonable notice where the
breach is capable of being put right.
</p>
<p>
Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including sections 7 to 11)
will continue to apply after your account is closed.
</p>

<section class="space-y-3">
<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">13. Changes to these terms</h2>
<p>
We may update these terms. Material changes will be notified to registered users by
email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the service after the
change date means you accept the new terms.
</p>
</section>

<h2 class="font-display text-2xl font-bold text-zinc-900">14. Disputes</h2>

directly. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of
England and Wales have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute. If you live

of your country of residence.
