CARINDEX

Please adhere to the following insertion rules as well as legal requirements (namely, in particular, the Federal Act against Unfair Competition as well as the Price Indication Ordinance and Energy Ordinance). CARINDEX reserves the right to delete advertisements, or parts thereof, that do not comply with the insertion rules or legal requirements.

a) Each vehicle may only be advertised once simultaneously.

b) The advertiser must actually possess the offered vehicle. The advertised vehicles must not be ordered or yet to be ordered.

c) Directly/parallel-imported vehicles must be explicitly declared in the advertisement.

d) Advertised vehicles must be available for inspection, test drive, and delivery within a week.

e) The location of the offered vehicle as well as the provider must be in Switzerland/Liechtenstein.

f) Wanted ads are not allowed on CARINDEX.

g) The information about the vehicle advertised must be truthful.

h) The vehicle fields specified by CARINDEX may only be used for their intended purpose. In particular, the “Version” field must not contain remarks such as discounts, leasing, etc. The field must exclusively contain model, version including special series, technical specifications of the engine and displacement, and for electric vehicles, indication of whether the battery is included or rented.

i) From the Motor Vehicle Inspection (MFK) onwards, if the last inspection is still valid for 12 months or is carried out before delivery.

j) Only one vehicle can be recorded per advertisement, i.e., the brand and model cannot be changed subsequently.

The ”Price” field must contain the final consumer sales price, i.e., the amount the consumer ultimately has to pay (see also Price Indication Ordinance). This includes, in particular, value-added tax (for business owners) and any fees. Monthly leasing fees or rental prices must not be indicated in this field. The provisions of the Price Indication Ordinance must be fully complied with. The displayed conditions and leasing rates must represent a real offer and correspond to the truth. The published price and leasing rates must correspond to the amount the customer ultimately has to pay. In particular, the provisions of the Federal Act against Unfair Competition and other provisions relating to consumer credits and leasing apply. In case of violations, we reserve the right to suspend the account.

CARINDEX recommends illustrating the advertisement with pictures. These demonstrably increase attention significantly. Original pictures, videos, and PDFs must represent the actually advertised vehicle. Only original pictures are allowed. The vehicle is not obscured and is always in the foreground. The photos must not be misleading and must reflect the actual condition of the vehicle. Image editing is not allowed. Only inserting a virtual background wall to optimize the image quality is accepted. Please refer to the valid guidelines under the supplementary provisions. The advertiser is responsible for ensuring that the images used may be used without restriction and do not infringe any rights of third parties (especially copyrights).

Premium-rate numbers, 0900 numbers, and foreign numbers are generally prohibited, except those from the Principality of Liechtenstein. Providing at least one telephone number, email address, postal code, and location in the advertisement is mandatory.

The insertion of spare parts and accessories (e.g., rims, exhausts, tires, etc.) is not allowed in the vehicle market.

It is not allowed to delete existing advertisements and immediately republish them.

CARINDEX reserves the right to make changes to these insertion rules at any time.
