Terms of Service

Last updated: [Insert Date]
Note for David: Same note as the Privacy Policy — this covers the standard ground for a filing-service business, but replace the bracketed placeholders with your real details and have it reviewed before launch, especially the refund and liability sections, since those directly affect real money changing hands.

1. Who We Are

Motus DOT Compliance ("Motus," "we," "us") is a private, independent compliance service. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the U.S. Department of Transportation, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), or any government agency — including FMCSA's own "Motus" registration system, which is a separate, official government platform. Any USDOT filing can be completed directly and free of charge through the FMCSA. Our fees cover our preparation, review, and filing services.

2. Services

We assist customers with FMCSA-related filings and compliance services, including but not limited to MCS-150 biennial updates, UCR registration, BOC-3 filings, drug and alcohol consortium enrollment, Clearinghouse registration, new carrier registration, driver qualification file setup, and USDOT deactivation filings.

3. Accuracy of Information

You are responsible for providing accurate, complete information when placing an order. We are not responsible for filing errors, delays, or rejections that result from inaccurate or incomplete information you provide.

4. Fees and Payment

Service fees are as listed on our website at the time of your order, and are separate from any government filing fees, which are paid directly to the relevant agency. Payment is due at the time of order unless otherwise agreed.

5. Refund Policy

[Insert your refund policy here — for example: refunds are available if a filing has not yet been submitted; once a filing has been submitted to a government agency, service fees are non-refundable, though government fees may be refundable per that agency's own policy.]

6. No Legal or Regulatory Advice

Our services are administrative filing assistance, not legal advice. For complex regulatory or legal questions specific to your business, we recommend consulting a licensed attorney.

7. Limitation of Liability

[Insert your liability limitation here — this section should be reviewed by a professional, since it defines what happens if a filing error causes a customer financial harm.]
