Terms of Service
Effective date: 1 September 2026
Welcome to CheckDomainRating.com, owned and operated by Two Phase, LLC (“CheckDomainRating.com”), a Wyoming company. By accessing our service through our website at checkdomainrating.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and all applicable laws and regulations. You may not access the service if you disagree with any part of the terms.
These Terms of Service govern any transaction between CheckDomainRating.com and any party who uses our services (“Client”, “User” or “you”). Under this Agreement, Client may purchase or use certain services or deliverables offered by us. By engaging in business with us, Client accepts and agrees to the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. This Agreement also incorporates and is subject to any additional terms and conditions posted on this website or any other website, application, software or service offered by CheckDomainRating.com.
Any User accessing, using or purchasing services from CheckDomainRating.com is responsible for the activities of their agents, representatives and end users, and for their compliance with all policies. If a User becomes aware of any violation of these policies, the User is obliged to notify CheckDomainRating.com immediately with any relevant information. It is the sole responsibility of the User to review all policies for changes, updates or modifications.
1. Definitions
“Service” refers to the applications, software, products, data and services CheckDomainRating.com provides, including the free domain rating checker, the browser extension, the data API and the bulk dataset. “Data” means the domain ratings and associated values we publish, whether accessed one at a time or as files. “User”, “you” and “your” refer to the individual, company or organisation that has visited or is using our website or Service. “We”, “us” and “our” refer to CheckDomainRating.com. “Content” means text, images, data and all other forms of communication.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use our Service. By agreeing to these Terms you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and use of the Service complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
3. Accounts and access
To access most features you must have an account. When you create one you must provide an accurate and current email address. We do not use passwords: access to an account is by a link sent to the email address on it, so control of that mailbox is control of the account. You are responsible for keeping access to that mailbox secure, and for all activity that occurs under your account.
Sharing sign-in links or API keys outside your organisation is prohibited. If you allow others within your organisation to use the Service under your account, you are fully responsible for their acts and omissions, for informing them of these Terms, and for monitoring their use to ensure compliance.
4. Use of the Service
You may use our Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
You are prohibited from using any CheckDomainRating.com site or product, now or in the past or future, for illegal, offensive, immoral or abusive purposes, or in any manner that interferes with or adversely affects CheckDomainRating.com, its agents, representatives, assets or property, including any action that would expose us to civil or criminal liability. You and your agents, representatives and end users specifically agree not to:
- Engage in hacking, phishing, spamming, scamming, identity theft, fraud, forgery, deception, virus or malware distribution, network attacks, or any other action considered “black hat”.
- Interfere with another User's access to the Service, the site or the API.
- Perform unauthorised analysis, monitoring, penetration testing or access of our data, networks or systems.
- Use the Service or any Data derived from it to train, fine-tune or develop artificial intelligence or machine learning models, or share any Data with third-party AI tools or technologies.
- Resell, lease, rent, transfer, syndicate or otherwise distribute the Data or the Service, or use the Service to compete with us or to create derivative datasets for resale or distribution, except as expressly permitted in section 5.
- Transmit, store, access or distribute illegal, unsolicited, fraudulent or immorally obtained data or materials that may infringe or violate the privacy, intellectual property, publicity or personal rights of any company, group, individual or campaign.
- Combine or process any portion of the Service with other software so as to create or enhance a competing database, or use the Service in connection with any rules engine or automated processor intended to reproduce it.
- Engage in harassment, or transmit, distribute, store or access content that is inappropriate, obscene, defamatory, threatening or abusive, or that advocates violence or violates a law, regulation or public policy.
- Use the Service in any way that could constitute a “consumer report” under applicable law, or as a factor in determining any individual's eligibility for credit, insurance, employment, housing, or a licence or other benefit granted by a governmental authority.
- Take any action that could cause CheckDomainRating.com to be civilly or criminally liable.
You agree to abide by all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to your use of the Service, including data protection and privacy laws. CheckDomainRating.com has the final say on what constitutes a violation. We reserve the right to investigate any actual, suspected or alleged violation, and you will reasonably cooperate with such investigations and with any corrective measures. We may implement technical measures to prevent violations, including network scanning, analysis and filtering. Nothing in these policies limits our rights or remedies at law or in equity.
We reserve the right to discontinue the relationship with any User in breach of these policies, and to suspend or terminate without prior notice, including all data stored within the Service, where restoration may not be possible. We further reserve the right to charge the User for any violation by the User or their agents, representatives or end users, at a minimum of $150 USD per hour for investigation, together with the cost of any equipment needed to respond to, investigate and remediate the violation. We reserve the right to block anyone from use of the site and the Service at any time for any reason.
5. Licence to the Data
The Data and the ratings within it are our proprietary property. A paid licence grants the rights set out in this section and nothing else; all other rights are reserved. The Data is provided as is, as described in section 13.
5.1 Internal use
Within your own organisation you may store, query, analyse and combine the Data with your own, without limit on seats or environments, for as long as your licence is current. You may publish derived analysis and aggregate figures that do not amount to redistribution of the Data itself.
5.2 Redistribution and embedding
You may not resell, sublicense, publish or otherwise redistribute the files, or any substantially complete part of the Data, to anyone outside your organisation.
You may display individual ratings within a product or report you provide to your own customers. No attribution or link back is required for individual ratings shown this way. Bulk export of ratings to your customers, or any use that allows a third party to reconstruct a material portion of the Data, is redistribution and requires a separate written agreement.
6. Intellectual property rights
The Service, its original content, features, underlying know-how and processes, and its functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of CheckDomainRating.com and its licensors. Our trademarks and trade dress may not be used in connection with any product or service without our prior written consent. Your use of the Service does not grant you ownership of any intellectual property rights in it. We reserve all intellectual property rights to the fullest extent of the law.
7. Termination
We may terminate or suspend your account and bar access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, at our sole discretion, for any reason, including a breach of these Terms.
8. Scraping, the API and third-party services
You are prohibited from accessing the Service to scrape, harvest or otherwise collect data or content from it. This includes automated systems, software or unauthorised third-party tools designed to access, acquire, copy or monitor any portion of the Service, except through the API provided for that purpose.
Your use of the API must not exceed the rate limits assigned to your account. Implement proper error handling and backoff when you receive a rate limit response. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate API access for accounts that consistently exceed limits or affect service stability. Contact us for high-volume requirements.
The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services not owned or controlled by us. We assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party website or service.
9. No refunds
All fees are non-refundable. Payment for a licence term is final once received, and no refunds or credits are issued for any reason, including partial terms, unused time, cancellation, dissatisfaction, or a term during which you did not download or use the Data. This applies equally to accounts suspended or terminated for breach of these Terms.
Because we do not offer refunds, we publish everything you need to evaluate the Data before you buy: the full schema, the file format, the approximate file sizes, and a free sample file containing real rows from the current release. We encourage you to use the sample and to ask us anything before purchasing.
10. Confidentiality
You are required to maintain the confidentiality of all Data accessed from us. You shall not disclose it to third parties, including by transmission over the Internet. This obligation applies to all forms of sharing and extends to any unauthorised or negligent use that might expose the Data to external parties. You agree to treat all Data accessed through the Service with at least the same care you would apply to your own data of similar value or type.
“Confidential Information” includes, but is not limited to:
- Raw data sourced from the CheckDomainRating.com dataset.
- Any documentation, reports, files, spreadsheets or other materials provided by us.
- Any discussions, notes or analyses derived from the disclosed data.
- Any non-public business, financial or technical information relating to our operations.
- Any discussions or agreements on pricing, discounts, rates or other financial terms.
You agree to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information and not to disclose it to any third party without our prior written consent; to use it solely for internal business purposes and not for any unauthorised commercial use; not to publish, distribute, resell or otherwise make it available to any third party; and to ensure that employees, contractors and representatives who receive access are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those in this Agreement.
11. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless CheckDomainRating.com and its licensees and licensors, and their employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts and expenses (including attorney's fees) resulting from or arising out of (a) your use and access of the Service, by you or any person using your account; (b) a breach of these Terms; (c) Content posted on the Service; (d) your breach of any covenant, representation or warranty contained here; or (e) any loss or damage claimed by a subsequent third party against CheckDomainRating.com for any loss or damage allegedly suffered by that third party. The representations, warranties and right to indemnification in this clause survive termination of this Agreement.
12. Fees and payment
12.1 Subscription payments
The bulk data licence is $1,499 USD per year, invoiced in US dollars and payable by bank transfer within 14 days of the invoice date. Access begins on the day the payment reaches us and runs for one year from that date, covering every monthly release published during the term together with the history available at the time. By subscribing you agree to pay the fees in effect when the charges were incurred.
12.2 Renewals
We raise a renewal invoice 30 days before the end of your term and notify you by email. Paying it extends your licence by a further year. If it is not paid, the licence lapses at the end of the paid term. You must notify us at least 14 days before the end of your term if you do not wish to receive a renewal invoice.
12.3 Billing information
You are responsible for providing and maintaining current, complete and accurate billing information, and for promptly updating it when it changes.
12.4 Changes in fees
We reserve the right to change our fees and any other charges upon notice to you, which may be emailed or posted on the Service. Your continued use of the Service after the change takes effect constitutes your agreement to the changed amount. A change in fees does not affect the price of a term already paid for.
13. Limitation of liability and warranty disclaimer
In no event shall CheckDomainRating.com, nor its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers or affiliates, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, including without limitation loss of profits, data, use, goodwill or other intangible losses, resulting from (i) your access to or use of, or inability to access or use, the Service; (ii) any conduct or content of any third party on the Service; (iii) any content or Data obtained from the Service; or (iv) unauthorised access, use or alteration of your transmissions or content, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence) or any other legal theory, whether or not we have been informed of the possibility of such damage, and even if a remedy set out here is found to have failed of its essential purpose.
Except for the representations and warranties expressly set out in this Agreement or established by applicable law as rights that cannot be waived or limited by contract, the deliverables are provided “as is” and with all faults, and CheckDomainRating.com does not make and hereby disclaims all warranties, conditions, representations or terms (express or implied, whether by statute, common law, custom, usage or otherwise) as to any matter including merchantability, satisfactory quality, or fitness for any particular purpose. CheckDomainRating.com does not warrant the performance or results the client may obtain by purchasing any deliverables or services.
Ratings are estimates produced by an automated model over an index of a changing web. They are not measurements, they are not complete, and nothing in the Service is advice about the domains it describes. We do not guarantee the availability of the site, the API or the extension, or any particular publication schedule.
Any action for an alleged breach of this Agreement, or to enforce any right under it, other than an action by us to collect or contest the calculation of fees, must be commenced within six months after the cause of action has accrued, or the breach or right will be deemed waived and barred. The total aggregate liability of either party for all claims asserted by the other under or in connection with this Agreement, calculated over the entire term and regardless of the form of action or theory of recovery, other than an action by us to collect fees, is limited to the amounts paid or payable to CheckDomainRating.com by the Client for the non-conforming deliverables which are the subject of dispute, and in no event will that amount exceed the total price paid to us by the Client during the prior 3-month period, or $10,000, whichever is less. The limitation is cumulative and all payments under this Agreement will be aggregated in calculating it. The parties agree that this clause provides a reasonable allocation of risk and that we would not provide the Service on these terms without it.
We will handle all data provided by the Client in accordance with reasonably practicable industry standard practices, and in no event with a standard of protection less than we apply to our own confidential information of similar importance. The Client agrees that we bear no responsibility or liability for unauthorised access to, exposure of, or destruction of any information provided to us, for any reason other than our gross negligence or wilful misconduct. We are not responsible or liable for the accuracy, usefulness or availability of any information transmitted or made available via the Service, nor for any error or omission in that information. We are under no obligation to monitor any actions on our sites or Services and disclaim any responsibility or liability for misuse of the Service.
14. Publicity rights
You grant a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use your name, logo and trademarks solely to identify you as a customer on our website, in presentations and in marketing materials. This use does not imply endorsement and will be in accordance with any brand guidelines you provide. If you prefer that we do not, you may opt out at any time by notifying us in writing by email.
15. Disclaimer
Your use of the Service is at your sole risk. The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement or course of performance.
16. Governing law, mediation and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Before filing any action, the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve disputes through settlement discussions or a neutral third-party mediator. The place of mediation will be Wyoming, though the parties may attend remotely. Each party accepts and submits to the personal jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction in Wyoming and waives the right to object to that venue on the basis of forum non conveniens. The parties agree to service of process by notice sent using an internationally recognised courier service to the party's address listed in this Agreement. In any action or proceeding to enforce or interpret this Agreement, the substantially prevailing party will be entitled to reimbursement of costs, including reasonable attorney's fees.
17. Changes to this Agreement
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. We will try to provide notice of new terms taking effect; what constitutes a material change is determined at our sole discretion. The Client acknowledges that it has read this Agreement, understands it, and agrees to be bound by its terms. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior understandings, whether oral or written, relating to its subject matter. No amendment is binding unless in writing. Additional services or changes to the scope of this Agreement must be authorised in writing by CheckDomainRating.com. We are not responsible for your receipt of any notification, and are not obliged to provide advance notice of changes. By agreeing to the existing policies, the User accepts future revisions.
18. Miscellaneous
By continuing to access or use our Service after revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. The Client may not assign its rights under this Agreement, and those rights may not be transferred to any other person or entity by sale or operation of law. Any attempt to transfer or assign is void.
If any part of this Agreement is found to be prohibited by law, the remainder remains valid and enforceable. No remedy conferred by any specific provision is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy; each is cumulative. The Client agrees that monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for breaches of this Agreement and expressly agrees that CheckDomainRating.com may obtain an injunction or other equitable remedy to protect its rights.
No failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege operates as a waiver of it, and no single or partial exercise precludes any other or further exercise.
Any notice required under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered by hand, certified US mail, facsimile, electronic mail, or overnight courier to the party to whom it is given. Notices are deemed received three calendar days after deposit in the United States mail if sent by certified mail, on the date of actual delivery if sent by overnight courier, and on the date of actual transmission if sent by electronic mail or delivered personally. A party may change its address for notice by informing the other in writing.
19. Independence
CheckDomainRating.com is an independent data provider and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any other company. All third-party names and marks belong to their respective owners.
