Carlective Vehicle Passport Policy
Creating trusted digital histories for automotive enthusiasts
Effective Date: 01/08/2026 Last Updated: [Insert Date]
1. Introduction
The Carlective Vehicle Passport is a digital record designed to help automotive enthusiasts document, preserve, and share the story of a vehicle.
A vehicle is more than its specifications. It is a combination of ownership history, maintenance, modifications, experiences, and memories.
The Carlective Vehicle Passport allows users to create a structured digital history containing relevant vehicle information, helping owners preserve their automotive journey and providing a clearer picture of a vehicle’s background.
The Vehicle Passport is designed to support transparency and trust within the Carlective community.
2. Purpose of the Vehicle Passport
The purpose of the Carlective Vehicle Passport is to:
- Create a centralised digital record of a vehicle.
- Preserve ownership stories and automotive journeys.
- Organise maintenance and service information.
- Document modifications and improvements.
- Allow enthusiasts to showcase their vehicles.
- Encourage transparency within the automotive community.
A Vehicle Passport is intended to complement existing vehicle records, not replace official documentation.
3. What a Vehicle Passport Is
A Carlective Vehicle Passport is a digital profile associated with a vehicle.
It may include:
- Vehicle specifications.
- Images.
- Ownership milestones.
- Service records.
- Maintenance history.
- Modification details.
- Build information.
- Event participation.
- Vehicle stories.
- Inspection records.
- Supporting documents.
The information contained within a Vehicle Passport depends on what the owner chooses to add and what verification features have been completed.
4. What a Vehicle Passport Is Not
A Vehicle Passport does not represent:
- Government registration.
- Legal proof of ownership.
- A replacement for DVLA records.
- A warranty.
- A mechanical guarantee.
- A professional valuation.
- A roadworthiness certificate.
- An insurance policy.
- A substitute for independent vehicle checks.
Carlective does not guarantee that all information contained within a Vehicle Passport is accurate unless specifically identified as verified through an approved process. Users should complete their own checks before purchasing, selling, insuring, financing, or relying on vehicle information.
5. Creating a Vehicle Passport
Users may create a Vehicle Passport by providing relevant vehicle information. Users should provide information that is:
- Accurate.
- Genuine.
- Current.
- Legally obtained.
Users may be asked to provide additional information where enhanced verification features are available. Carlective may limit, review, or remove Vehicle Passports where information appears:
- False.
- Misleading.
- Fraudulent.
- In violation of community standards.
6. Vehicle Information
A Vehicle Passport may include information such as:
Basic Vehicle Details

9. Vehicle Stories & Provenance
A vehicle’s story is an important part of its identity. Users may share:
- Ownership experiences.

Stories should be authentic and respectful. Users should not create false histories or claim involvement with a vehicle’s past without evidence.
10. Vehicle Passport Verification Levels
Carlective may introduce different levels of verification to improve trust. Verification levels may include:
Level 1: Owner Created
A Vehicle Passport created and managed by the owner. Information is user-submitted and has not been independently verified.

Level 3: Carlective Verified

Level 4: Partner Verified
Information may be verified through approved third-party partners such as:

Verification levels may change as Carlective develops. A verification badge does not guarantee a vehicle’s condition, value, safety, or future performance.
11. Ownership Transfers
Where supported, Vehicle Passports may be transferred between owners. A transfer may require:
- Confirmation from the current owner.
- Confirmation from the new owner.
- Additional verification checks.
Transfer history may form part of the vehicle’s digital story.
