SERVICE SPECIFIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Recurrent Research Panel  Terms

Recurrent is developing machine learning algorithms to predict future battery life and range across all EV models. We are assembling a panel of ~1000 current EV drivers who are willing to share anonymous access to their vehicle data over time, so Recurrent can observe battery state and range estimates in a variety of weather conditions and driving situations.

If you elect to participate in the research panel, you agree to these Recurrent Research Panel Terms.

1. Eligibility to Participate. Currently, the following EV models are supported: Tesla Model S, 3, X; Nissan Leaf 2016 and later; BMW i3 2017 and later, X5, i8, 5-series plug-in, 3-series plug-in; Ford Fusion Energi 2019 and later; Chevy Volt, Bolt, Spark; VW e-Golf; Jaguar I-Pace; Chrysler Pacifica Plug-in; Audi e-tron, and Audi A3 Plug In. Additionally, you will need an active connected services account with the vehicle manufacturer (such as Nissan Connect EV, BMW Connected Drive, Tesla’s API, etc.). We double check your car’s eligibility as part of the signup process.

2 Enrollment Process.

2.1. Smartcar is a third-party data service that enables Recurrent to obtain data about your EV. As part of the Research Panel signup process, you will be required to agree to Smartcar’s terms and privacy policy and provide Smartcar with the login credentials you use to access your car’s connected services account. We recommend that you review Smartcar’s terms and privacy policy. Recurrent does not endorse, guarantee or make any warranty regarding the products or services provided by Smartcar or any other third-party products or services, and Recurrent does not assume any responsibility for any third-party services, including the Smartcar service.

2.2. You will be required to authenticate your car by selecting your car’s manufacturer and logging in with your car’s connected services account.Once you authenticate your car, you will be presented with a list of data about your vehicle that Recurrent will be allowed to access: VIN, current odometer, current state of charge, current charging status, and current range estimate. After you agree to allow Recurrent access to the specified data and click the “Connect Your Car” button, you will receive a confirmation email from Recurrent. Thereafter, Recurrent will typically make data requests 1-3 times per day to build up a historical profile.

3. Reports.

3.1. During your participation in the research panel, Recurrent will periodically send you battery comparison reports (each a “Report”).Recurrent will provide the Reports to you via email, or via a link accessible in an email.

3.2. These Reports are created using the aggregated data that Recurrent obtains from all research panel participants, as well publicly available data about EV’s provided by third parties. The Reports provide an estimate of your EV’s battery health. However, because the information on which the Reports are based is obtained from a number of third-party sources, RECURRENT MAKES NO WARRANTIES ABOUT THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE REPORTS, WHICH MAY CONTAIN ERRORS AND OMISSIONS. THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON THE INFORMATION IN THE REPORTS FOR ANY PURPOSE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, NAVIGATION OR TRIP PLANNING. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR USE OF THE REPORTS.

3.3. The Reports are provided solely for your personal use and may not be used for any commercial purpose. Without limiting the foregoing, you agree not to: modify, copy, publish, retransmit, sell, compile, or transfer any report or any information set forth in a Report; (ii) create any derivative works from a Report; (iii) remove, obscure or modify any trademark, copyright, or any other notice set forth on a Report.

4. Privacy; Security. As part of the research panel signup process, we ask for your home zip code and typical daytime and overnight parking locations (inside or outside) to determine the typical temperatures your vehicle is exposed to, as that is important information for battery health analysis. But we do not track where you’re driving, just the battery’s state and your overall mileage. Recurrent does not store your login credentials. Recurrent receives a unique authorization token from Smartcar via an industry-standard protocol known as OAuth 2.0. That token is only able to access data that was explicitly authorized by you (the owner) during the connection process. All data transferred between Recurrent, Smartcar, and your vehicle is transmitted using end-to-end 256-bit encryption. They are used only once to generate a unique authorization token via an industry-standard protocol known as OAuth 2.0. This token is then used by Recurrent for all future data requests. Your credentials and authorization token are transmitted using end-to-end 256-bit encryption. As part of Recurrent’s research study, your vehicle’s data will only be used in aggregate to train a machine learning model used to score EVs. Your vehicle’s data will never be used or disseminated individually. For the complete terms governing Recurrent’s collection, use, processing and disclosure of your information, please review the Recurrent Privacy Policy (www.recurrentauto.com/privacy).

5. Research Panel Termination. You can stop your participation in the research panel at any time and revoke our authorization to continue collecting data about your EV any time by visiting our Disconnect page. We may discontinue the research panel at any time, for any reason or no reason, in our sole discretion, with or without notice. If you choose to stop participating in the research panel, or we discontinue theresearch panel, we will stop sending you battery reports.
