Vendor Terms

These Vendor Terms apply to vendors, representatives, and other organizations that create an account, claim a listing, submit software information, manage a profile, purchase a plan, or otherwise use SoftwareReview.com vendor services. By using the vendor tools on SoftwareReview.com, you confirm that you are authorized to act for the vendor you represent and that you agree to these terms.

1. Vendor Accounts and Authority

You must provide accurate account information and keep your login credentials secure. If you register, claim, or manage a listing on behalf of a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company and manage its public information on SoftwareReview.com. You are responsible for all activity that occurs through your vendor profile account.

2. Listings, Claims, and Verification

SoftwareReview.com may host software listings created from public sources, submitted by users, catalog inputs, or vendor representatives. Claiming a listing does not create ownership of the listing or guarantee approval. We may request verification documents, vendor email confirmation, product ownership evidence, or other information before granting or maintaining access to a listing.

We may reject, suspend, merge, edit, or remove listings, claims, submissions, categories, or profile content where information is inaccurate, duplicative, misleading, unlawful, spammy, unsupported, or inconsistent with the purpose of the platform.

3. Profile Content and Accuracy

You are responsible for keeping your vendor profile profile, software details, pricing information, links, screenshots, descriptions, contact details, categories, integrations, and claims accurate and up to date. Do not publish content that is false, deceptive, defamatory, infringing, confidential, malicious, or designed to manipulate reviews, rankings, traffic, or users.

By submitting content to SoftwareReview.com, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, format, moderate, translate, excerpt, index, and promote that content in connection with the platform.

4. Reviews and User Feedback

SoftwareReview.com is built to help users evaluate software through independent listings, reviews, ratings, and other feedback. You may respond to reviews where response tools are available, but you must not pressure users, offer compensation for positive reviews, submit fake reviews, review your own products, coordinate review manipulation, or attempt to remove criticism through abusive reports.

We may moderate reviews and responses according to our platform rules, but we do not guarantee that all content will be reviewed before publication. User opinions belong to the users who submit them and may not reflect SoftwareReview.com's views.

5. Plans, Payments, and Paid Features

Some vendor features may require a paid plan or one-time payment. Fees, billing intervals, renewal rules, plan limits, and included features are shown at checkout or in the vendor dashboard. Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers such as Stripe, and your use of those payment services may be subject to their separate terms.

Unless stated otherwise at checkout, paid plans renew automatically until cancelled. You are responsible for applicable taxes, maintaining a valid payment method, and cancelling before renewal if you do not want the next billing period. Paid placement, enhanced profiles, analytics, claiming tools, or similar features do not guarantee traffic, leads, conversions, review scores, search position, or revenue.

6. Acceptable Vendor Use

You agree not to misuse SoftwareReview.com. Prohibited conduct includes scraping at scale without permission, bypassing security controls, interfering with the platform, uploading malware, impersonating another vendor, misrepresenting affiliations, harvesting user data, sending unsolicited messages, manipulating rankings, abusing reporting tools, or using the service in violation of applicable law.

7. Intellectual Property

You retain rights to the content you own and submit. SoftwareReview.com and its licensors retain all rights in the platform, design, code, trademarks, databases, ranking systems, and other service materials. You may not copy, resell, reverse engineer, or create competing datasets from SoftwareReview.com except as permitted by law or with our written permission.

8. Platform Changes and Availability

We may change, limit, suspend, or discontinue vendor features, listing formats, categories, moderation rules, ranking factors, plans, or pricing. We aim to keep the platform available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. Maintenance, technical issues, third-party outages, data updates, or security work may affect availability.

9. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate vendor account access, remove content, cancel claims, or restrict paid features if we believe these terms have been violated, information cannot be verified, payment fails, the account creates risk for users or SoftwareReview.com, or continued access would be unlawful or harmful. You may stop using the vendor services at any time, subject to any active billing obligations.

10. Disclaimers and Liability

SoftwareReview.com provides discovery, profile, review, and vendor tools on an as-is and as-available basis. We do not guarantee the accuracy of all third-party content, user reviews, catalog data, rankings, search results, analytics, leads, or commercial outcomes. To the fullest extent permitted by law, SoftwareReview.com will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages arising from vendor use of the platform.

11. Indemnity

You agree to defend and hold SoftwareReview.com harmless from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses arising from your vendor profile account, submitted content, products, services, legal compliance, misuse of the platform, or breach of these terms.

12. Updates to These Terms

We may update these Vendor Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised last updated date. Continued use of the vendor services after an update means you accept the revised terms.
