Terms of Service

1.These terms

These terms govern your use of BankerBuyerList: this website, the workspace and the data in it (together, the “service”). “We”, “us” and “our” mean the operator of BankerBuyerList; “you” means the person using the service and, where you use it for a business, that business. By creating an account or using the service you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

BankerBuyerList is a business tool. You must be at least 18 and use it for your work, not for personal, family or household purposes.

2.Your account

• Each account belongs to one person. Everyone who uses BankerBuyerList needs their own account; do not share your sign-in or let others use your session.
• Keep your details accurate and your password safe.
• You are responsible for what happens under your account. Tell us straight away at jack@bizvalwriters.com if you think someone else has used it.
• Colleagues in the same organization share projects, corrections and do-not-contact flags inside that organization; each of them still needs their own account and subscription.

3.Subscription and billing

• The subscription costs US$19.99 per month per user, plus any applicable taxes, billed in advance each month by our payment processor, Stripe. Each user may hold one subscription. Several users may pay with the same card, but each pays for their own subscription.
• It renews automatically every month until you cancel. You can cancel at any time from the billing page in the workspace; you keep access until the end of the month you have paid for, and you are not charged again.
• Payments are not refundable, including for partly used months, except where the law requires a refund.
• If a payment fails, Stripe retries it; while it stays unpaid we may limit or suspend access until it is settled.
• We may change the price with at least 30 days’ notice by email. The new price applies from your next renewal after the notice period, and you can cancel before then.

4.Your license to use the data

While your subscription is active, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable license to use the service and its data for your own business: finding, evaluating and contacting potential buyers and investors for the engagements you work on. That includes exporting records with the built-in export feature for that purpose. Everything not expressly granted is reserved.

5.What you may not do with the data

You may not, and may not help anyone else to:

• sell, resell, rent, license, sublicense, publish, share or otherwise redistribute the data or exports, in whole or in substantial part, to anyone outside your own business;
• scrape, crawl, script or otherwise extract data in bulk from the service, other than with the built-in export for your own use;
• use the data or the service to build, enrich, train or benchmark a competing database, list, product or service, including datasets for machine learning;
• get around usage limits, access controls or security, or reverse engineer the service;
• share your account, or pool one subscription among several people.

6.Accuracy of the data

The data is compiled from public web pages, lists we provide and corrections made by subscribers. Each value shows where it came from and when, and email addresses are labelled verified, inferred or unverified. Businesses and people change quickly, so the data can be incomplete, out of date or wrong, and a firm or person listed may not be interested in your deal.

We do not guarantee that the data is accurate, complete or current. Check anything that matters before you rely on it. If you spot a mistake, correct it in the workspace or tell us.

7.Outreach and do-not-contact

BankerBuyerList does not send messages for you. You alone decide whom you contact and how, and you are responsible for complying with every law that applies to your outreach, including anti-spam, telemarketing and do-not-call rules (such as CAN-SPAM and the TCPA in the United States, and CASL, GDPR and PECR where they apply), and for honouring opt-out requests.

The do-not-contact flags in the workspace help you keep track of your own decisions for a deal or for your organization. They are a convenience, not a compliance system, and they do not replace your own suppression lists or legal obligations. If a person asks you to stop contacting them, stop. If someone asks to be removed from our database, point them to jack@bizvalwriters.com.

8.Corrections and other things you submit

You keep whatever rights you have in corrections, notes, recommendations and screenshots you submit. You give us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual license to use, store, adapt and include them in the service and in the shared database, so that every subscriber benefits from a correction.

Only submit corrections you believe are true and information you are allowed to share. Corrections that turn out to be wrong may be flagged and undone, and repeated wrong or careless corrections may lead us to limit your ability to edit. Do not put confidential or sensitive personal information in recommendations or screenshots.

9.Acceptable use

When you use the service, do not:

• break the law, or use the data to harass, stalk, threaten or spam anyone;
• upload malware or anything that could harm the service or other users;
• try to access another organization’s data, or probe or test our security without our written permission (security reports are welcome at jack@bizvalwriters.com);
• overload, disrupt or interfere with the service or its infrastructure;
• impersonate anyone, or tell the people you contact that you represent BankerBuyerList.

10.Changes to the service

We improve the service continually and may add, change or remove features and data sources. We aim to keep it available but do not promise uninterrupted service; maintenance and events outside our control can cause interruptions. If a change substantially reduces what you are paying for, you may cancel.

11.Ownership

The service, its software and design, and the database as a compilation (its selection, arrangement, provenance and verification) belong to us and are protected by intellectual property laws. Facts themselves belong to no one; these terms protect the compilation and the service, not your right to know a fact.

12.Suspension and termination

You can cancel your subscription at any time and ask us to close your account. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms (for example by redistributing data, scraping, sharing an account or not paying), if the law requires it, or to protect the service or other users. Where it is practical and lawful, we will tell you first and give you a chance to fix the problem.

When your access ends, your license ends with it. You may keep records of contacts you have already made, but you may not keep using exported data to build new lists or share it. The sections on restrictions, your submissions, ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law continue to apply.

13.Disclaimers

The service and the data are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement.

14.Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, deals, revenue, goodwill or data, arising from or related to the service or these terms, even if we were told they were possible.

Our total liability for all claims about the service or these terms is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose and US$100. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, so they apply to you only as far as the law permits.

15.Indemnity

You will defend and indemnify us against claims, losses and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your outreach, your use of the data, content you submit, or your breach of these terms.

16.Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of [state to be confirmed] and applicable federal law of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Before starting any formal proceeding, email us at jack@bizvalwriters.com and give us 30 days to try to resolve the matter informally. Any proceeding that follows must be brought in the state or federal courts located in that state, and both of us consent to their jurisdiction.

17.Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will change the effective date at the top and, for a significant change, tell subscribers by email or in the workspace before it takes effect. If you keep using the service after that, the new terms apply; if you do not agree, cancel before they take effect.

18.General

These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between us about the service. If a court finds part of them unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Not enforcing a right is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer these terms without our written consent; we may transfer them to a buyer of the service. Neither of us is responsible for delays caused by events outside reasonable control. We send notices to the email address on your account; send yours to jack@bizvalwriters.com.
