Terms of Use
These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of Stones Auto Guide. By using the site, you agree to these terms to the extent permitted by applicable law. If you do not agree, you should stop using the site.
These terms are written as a practical baseline for a static automotive knowledge website. If the site later adds user accounts, paid services, subscriptions, contests, or community features, the terms should be expanded accordingly.

You are responsible for how you apply any maintenance or ownership guidance. Vehicle condition varies by age, climate, mileage, prior repair quality, and driving pattern.

You agree not to use the site in a way that is unlawful, abusive, fraudulent, disruptive, or technically harmful. This includes attempting to interfere with site availability, scrape content at unreasonable scale, bypass access controls, inject malicious code, or misrepresent the source of traffic.

Intellectual Property and External Links
Unless otherwise stated, site text, structure, branding, graphics, and original editorial material are controlled by the site operator or used under applicable rights. Accessing the website does not transfer ownership of that material to you.
The site may also contain external links, embedded media, affiliate destinations, or references to third-party products and services. Those third parties operate independently, and the site operator is not responsible for their content, policies, availability, or security practices.
Disclaimer, Changes, and Contact
The website is provided on an 'as available' and 'as is' basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, complete accuracy in every instance, or that all content will remain current at all times.
