We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice.

Accuracy of information

In short: Prices and features change, so always confirm with the vendor.

We research our content carefully and follow the standards described in our How We Review & Editorial Policy. However, software companies can change prices, plans, features, requirements and policies at any time, often without notice.

We do not guarantee that any information on the Site is complete, current or free from errors. Before making a purchase or relying on any information, you should confirm the details directly on the software company’s official website. If you notice an error, please report it to contact@appcomparehq.com.

If you post a comment, send a correction, share feedback or otherwise submit content to us (“Submissions”), you confirm that you have the right to share it and that it does not violate any law or the rights of others.

You keep ownership of your Submissions. However, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use, display, edit and publish them in connection with operating and improving the Site. For example, if you report an outdated price, we may use that information to update an article without owing you payment or credit.

We may moderate, edit or remove any Submission at our discretion. Comments reflect the views of their authors, not App Compare HQ.

Third-party links, affiliates and advertising

In short: Other websites have their own terms, and we are not responsible for them.

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including software companies. Some are affiliate links, as explained in our Affiliate Disclosure. The Site may also display advertising from third parties.

We do not control and are not responsible for the content, products, services, pricing, privacy practices or availability of any third-party website or advertiser. Visiting those websites and buying from those companies is at your own risk and subject to their terms.

Disclaimer of warranties

In short: The site is provided as it is, without guarantees.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Site and all content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranties to be excluded, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you. See also our Disclaimer.

Limitation of liability

In short: We are not liable for losses from relying on the site, as far as the law allows.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, KCS Global Group, App Compare HQ and their owners, employees and contributors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data or business opportunities, arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Site or its content, including any purchase decision made based on our content.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud or for rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived.

Indemnification

In short: If your misuse causes a claim against us, you are responsible for it.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless KCS Global Group and App Compare HQ from any claims, losses, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your violation of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, or your Submissions.

Copyright complaints

Suspension of access

In short: We may restrict access if these terms are broken.

We may suspend or restrict your access to all or part of the Site at any time, without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law.

Governing law and disputes

In short: Indian law applies, and we try to resolve issues informally first.

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. If you have a concern, please contact us first at contact@appcomparehq.com so we can try to resolve it informally.

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Durg, Chhattisgarh, India, unless mandatory consumer protection laws in your country give you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts.

Changes to these terms

In short: We may update these terms, and the date above will change.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when they were last revised. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

General provisions

In short: Standard legal clauses that keep these terms working.

• Severability: if any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce any part of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
• Entire agreement: these Terms, together with the policies linked above, form the entire agreement between you and us about the Site.
• Assignment: we may transfer our rights under these Terms, for example if the Site changes ownership.
