Legal
These terms govern your use of the Gear Dios platform, developed and maintained by Mika Data Solutions. Please read them carefully before using any of our services.
Table of Contents
Gear Dios is a product developed, managed, and maintained by Mika Data Solutions. By accessing or using any Gear Dios service — including the Admin Portal (admin.geardios.io), Shop Floor App (floor.geardios.io), Customer Portal (customer.geardios.io), or this website (geardios.io) — you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy.
If you are using Gear Dios on behalf of a business (such as an auto repair shop), you represent that you have authority to bind that business to these terms.
If you do not agree to these terms, do not use our services.
Gear Dios provides an AI-powered auto repair shop management platform consisting of:
Shop Accounts
Shop owners register their business through the Admin Portal. By registering, you confirm that all information provided is accurate and that you are authorized to operate the auto repair business.
Staff Accounts
Staff accounts are created by shop owners or admins. Staff members must register their phone number and verify it via one-time passcode to access the Shop Floor App. Staff are responsible for maintaining the security of their login credentials.
Customer Accounts
Customers register through the Customer Portal using their phone number. Account creation constitutes consent to receive transactional SMS notifications from the auto repair shop managing their vehicle.
Account Security
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify support@geardios.io immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
By checking the SMS opt-in checkbox on our registration form or booking widget and providing your phone number, you explicitly consent to receive transactional SMS messages from Gear Dios on behalf of your auto repair shop.
MOBILE NUMBER NON-SHARING: Mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in consent data will NOT be shared, sold, rented, or distributed to any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Mobile numbers are shared only with Twilio solely for the purpose of message delivery.
Opt-in is collected via:
— Unchecked checkbox on the customer registration form at customer.geardios.io/register
— Unchecked checkbox on the online appointment booking widget
Both checkboxes are optional and unchecked by default. Submitting the form without checking the box does not constitute SMS consent.
You agree not to use Gear Dios services to:
Gear Dios and its developer Mika Data Solutions own all rights, title, and interest in the platform, including software, design, trademarks, and content. Nothing in these terms grants you ownership of any platform component.
Your shop data, customer records, repair orders, and business information remain your property. By using Gear Dios, you grant us a limited license to process that data to provide the services described in these terms and our Privacy Policy.
Gear Dios subscription fees are billed as described at the time of purchase. Payment processing is handled by Stripe. By subscribing, you authorize Stripe to charge your payment method on the agreed billing cycle.
Refunds are available within 7 days of initial purchase. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts with overdue payments. Prices may change with 30 days written notice.
Your use of Gear Dios is subject to our Privacy Policy (geardios.io/privacy), which is incorporated into these terms by reference. We process personal data including customer phone numbers, vehicle information, and service history to provide the platform's functionality.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have appropriate consent and legal basis to share your customers' personal information with Gear Dios, including phone numbers used for SMS notifications.
Gear Dios integrates with third-party services including Firebase (Google), Twilio, SendGrid, Stripe, PartsTech, and QuickBooks Online. Your use of these integrations is subject to those providers' own terms and privacy policies. Gear Dios is not responsible for the practices of third-party service providers.
THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. GEAR DIOS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM USE OF THE PLATFORM SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO GEAR DIOS IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
You may cancel your account at any time by contacting support@geardios.io. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you violate these terms, fail to pay subscription fees, or if required by law.
Upon termination, your access to the platform will cease. We will retain your data for 30 days during which you may request an export. After 30 days, data may be permanently deleted subject to legal retention requirements.
These terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association rules, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Nothing in these terms limits your rights as a consumer under applicable federal or state law.
We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated terms on this page and by email to the address associated with your account at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the platform after that date constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
