15.    Disclaimers

15.1.    Flux is not in the business of operating any form or class of Public Service Vehicle as outlined in the Land Public Transport Act 2010 or the Commercial Vehicles Licensing Board Act 1987 including but not limited to ‘hire & drive’ Cars or as an intermediary business which facilitates such activities. Flux is an authorised intermediate lessor, subleasing Cars to Members that have been duly leased to Flux by Inventory Providers under the regulated business activities of private leasing as outlined by the Ministry of Finance and empowered by the Financial Reporting Act 1997 and the requirements set out in the Malaysian Accounting Standards Board.    

15.2.    Flux does not itself provide Car rental operations and/or insurance services and is not responsible for any of the acts or omissions of any of the Users of its services including the Members, Inventory Providers, Car manufacturer or any 3rd party provider of services. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Flux makes no warranty that the Services, including but not limited to, the Listing and/or any Car, will meet Member requirements or be available on an uninterrupted, secure, or error-free basis.

15.5.1.    In consideration of the above, the Parties agree that extended periods of use of the Car will cause unavoidable ‘wear & tear’.

15.6.    Liquidated damages - Members acknowledge that the actual damages likely to result from engaging in deceitful or questionable practices, such as grey market transactions (i.e. using Flux to find a Car, and then completing a transaction or related transaction partially or wholly independent of Flux, in order to circumvent the obligation to pay any Flux Subscription Fees) would cause damage to the business model of Flux or resulting in loss of profits to Flux in the form of use of the Platform, training, onboarding, market reach, processing fees, Subscription Fees, undermining the reservation fee/cancellation fee, the drop in value in the utility of the Platform, the wasted cost in building the Platform and investment in the form of marketing, branding and advertisements, and the like. Taking into consideration all such factors, Members and Inventory Providers agree that Flux would suffer damage where in such instances, and Inventory Providers agree to pay Flux RM8,000.00 being agreed Liquidated Damages to compensate Flux for each time Inventory Providers are found liable of such conduct whereby the Inventory Providers consider such a sum to be fair and reasonable given the circumstances.
