Effective as of April 9, 2025
Let’s keep this simple. You’re here on our website thanks for stopping by. Before you dig into blog posts, poke around for services, or drop us a line, there are a few things you should know.
This is the “terms and conditions” page. Not flashy. Not fun. But important.
We’re Highway Pulse, an auto shop based out of Denver, Colorado, and this website (highwaypulse.com) is our digital front porch. Whether you’re here to schedule a VIN check, learn something from our blog, or figure out if your car really needs that brake job—it all starts here. By using this site, you’re agreeing to the rules below. No complicated legal speak. No bait-and-switch stuff. Just clear, fair terms written like real people talk.
If you’re cool with that, keep reading. If something’s unclear, you can always get in touch. We’re easy to find.
What This Site Actually Does
We built this site to make your life a little easier when it comes to car stuff. Think of it as the online extension of our shop Highway Pulse, based over on Ridgeview Ave in Denver. Here’s what you can expect:
- Info about the services we offer (repairs, mods, diagnostics—you name it)
- Articles and tips to help you understand your car without needing a PhD in engines
- Contact forms so you can reach out to our team without playing phone tag
- A blog that blends real-life auto advice with some personal takes from the shop floor
This isn’t some faceless corporate auto chain. We write our own content, shoot our own photos, and speak from experience—what works, what doesn’t, and what’s just marketing fluff.
What This Site Doesn’t Do
We’re not your insurance provider, your loan officer, or your mechanic-on-demand. Reading something here doesn’t mean you’re officially a customer. Same goes for quoting a service—we’ll confirm things with you directly. Until you hear back from one of our actual humans, nothing’s locked in.
And while we work hard to give accurate info, we’re not perfect. Cars change. Tech changes. Sometimes stuff gets outdated faster than we can rewrite it. That’s why we’ve got a Disclaimer page give it a skim if you’re relying on our blog or advice for anything serious.
Want to know more about who we are and how we operate? The full story’s over here: About Us
Our Stuff Stays Our Stuff
Everything you see on this site—photos, blog posts, descriptions, random tips about tire pressure in a Denver winter—that’s all original content made by us, or stuff we have the rights to use.
So here’s the deal:
- Don’t copy/paste our content onto your own site like it’s yours.
- Don’t screenshot and repost our service breakdowns without a shoutout.
- Sharing a link? Cool. Quoting a paragraph and giving us credit? Still cool.
- Trying to republish our whole VIN-check article on your car blog? Yeah… no.
We’ve put in the time to build this stuff, and we ask that you respect that. Fair’s fair.
Play Nice (a.k.a. User Conduct)
If you’re leaving comments on blog posts, sending us messages through the contact form, or interacting in any way on this site keep it clean and respectful.
We’re a local business, not a spam trap. So if you:
- Spam our forms
- Drop offensive language in the comments
- Try to break or hack something
- Post shady links
We’ll block you. No warnings. No regrets.
Same goes for pretending to be someone else, trying to manipulate search engines through our platform, or using this site for anything sketchy.
What We Collect (and Why)
Look, we’re not out here mining your data like some massive tech company. But like most websites these days, we do collect a bit of info when you use the site. Stuff like:
- Your name and email if you fill out our contact form
- Your IP address and browser type (via Google Analytics)
- Pages you visit, just to help us understand what folks actually care about
- Maybe your phone number if you want a callback
We use this info to respond to you, improve the site, and occasionally fix things when something breaks. We’re not selling your data. We’re not stalking your clicks. We’re just trying to run a shop and keep the site useful.
If you want the nitty-gritty, it’s all spelled out over in our Privacy Policy. It’s still written in plain English promise.
Cookies? Yeah, We’ve Got a Few
The digital kind. Not the warm, gooey ones.
Our site uses cookies to help things run smoother like remembering what page you were on or tracking what part of the site gets the most traffic. Most browsers let you manage or disable them. Totally up to you.
Just know that disabling cookies might make parts of the site a little funky.
No Wrenches Thrown – But No Guarantees Either
We try our best to keep everything on this site accurate, up-to-date, and helpful. But just like with cars, sometimes things don’t go exactly as planned.
So here’s our reality check:
- We’re not liable if something you read here doesn’t work out in real life.
- If you follow a DIY repair tip from our blog and strip a bolt – please don’t send us the invoice.
- If the site goes down while you’re trying to book a service, yeah, it happens. We’re human.
Basically: use the site at your own risk. Not because we’re being shady – but because that’s just how the internet works.
For the legal safety net (the one our lawyer made us include), refer to the Disclaimer.
Outside Links Outside Control
Sometimes we’ll link out to other sites like a parts supplier, financing calculator, or a YouTube tutorial we think is worth watching. We do that for your convenience, but once you click off our site, we can’t vouch for what happens there. Their content, their cookies, their rules.
So browse smart, and if something seems off on a third-party site, maybe close the tab and get back to us directly.
Heads-Up
As our shop grows and the site evolves, we might tweak these terms from time to time. We won’t blast it in flashing lights, but we’ll update the date at the top so you know something changed.
Still have questions about how something works? Or just want to clarify before you book? Reach out at [email protected]. We’d rather talk it through than leave anyone guessing.
