Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your use of dealscorer.com and all related tools, calculators, articles, checklists, and email content (collectively, the "Services") provided by DealScorer. By using the Services, you agree to these Terms.

1. Who Can Use the Services

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Services. By using them, you confirm that you meet this requirement.

2. What DealScorer Is (and Isn't)

DealScorer provides educational content about small business acquisition — articles, calculators, checklists, and reports. Nothing on this site is legal, financial, tax, or investment advice. Specifically:

• Our content is for informational purposes only.
• Calculator outputs are estimates based on the inputs you provide. Actual results will vary.
• Using this site does not create any professional relationship between you and DealScorer.
• You are responsible for your own due diligence and any decisions you make.
• We strongly recommend consulting a qualified attorney, accountant, or business broker before making any acquisition decision.

3. No Warranties

The Services are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any content, tool output, or calculator result. We are not responsible for errors, outdated information, or interruptions to the Services.

4. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DealScorer and its owners, operators, and affiliates are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services — including any decisions you make based on our content. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed $100.

5. Your Responsibilities

You agree to use the Services lawfully and not to:

• Scrape or systematically download content from the site.
• Reproduce or republish our content for commercial purposes without written permission.
• Attempt to reverse-engineer any of our tools or software.
• Use the Services to transmit spam, malware, or other harmful content.

6. Intellectual Property

All content, tools, methodologies, and materials on this site are owned by or licensed to DealScorer and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may download resources we explicitly offer for download (such as the Acquisition Checklist) for your own personal, non-commercial use.

7. Email Communications

By submitting your email address, you agree to receive emails from DealScorer related to the resource you requested and periodic updates about our content and tools. Every email includes an unsubscribe link. We comply with the CAN-SPAM Act, including a valid physical mailing address in all commercial emails.

8. Third-Party Links

The Services may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. You access third-party links at your own risk.

9. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the Services after any changes means you accept the updated Terms.

10. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes not resolved informally shall be submitted to binding arbitration in California under the American Arbitration Association's Consumer Arbitration Rules.
