These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of bingrank.com (the “Site”), operated by Bing Rank (“Bing Rank”, “we”, “us” or “our”), including the Bing rank checker and all other tools, articles and content on the Site (together, the “Service”). Please read them carefully.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you use the Service on behalf of a company or other organisation, you confirm that you are authorised to accept these Terms on its behalf. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
2. The Service
Bing Rank provides free tools that retrieve publicly available Bing search results and present them as reports, such as the position of a website for a keyword, the list of top results, indexed pages and autocomplete suggestions, together with educational articles about search engine optimisation.
The Service is provided free of charge. We may add, change, limit or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice, including when a search data source becomes unavailable.
3. No affiliation with Microsoft
Bing Rank is an independent service. It is not affiliated with, authorised, sponsored or endorsed by Microsoft Corporation or any of its affiliates. Microsoft, Bing and related names and logos are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation and are used on the Site only to describe the search engine our tools work with. All other trademarks belong to their respective owners.
4. Acceptable use
You may use the Service for lawful purposes, including your own SEO work and work you carry out for clients. You agree not to:
- use bots, scripts, scrapers or other automated means to send requests to the Tools or to collect content from the Site, or attempt to get around our fair-use limits, for example by rotating IP addresses;
- resell, rent or offer the Tools or their output as part of an automated service or API;
- interfere with, overload or disrupt the Site or its servers, or probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Site without our written permission;
- attempt to access the administration area or any account, system or data that is not intended for you;
- upload or send viruses, malicious code, spam or unlawful, harassing or infringing content through the contact form or any other feature;
- use the Service in a way that violates any applicable law or the rights of others, including the terms of service of search engines.
5. Fair-use limits
To keep the Service fast and free for everyone, each visitor can run a limited number of checks, currently up to 20 per hour and 100 per day. We may change these limits at any time and may block or restrict access for anyone who exceeds them or misuses the Service.
6. Accuracy of results
Search results change constantly and depend on location, language, device, personalisation and the search engine’s own testing. Reports from the Tools show the results that were available to our server, or to our search data provider, at the time of the check, for the market you selected. They may differ from what you see in your own browser, and cached results may be up to several days old.
The Service is provided for information purposes only. We do not guarantee that any report is complete, accurate or up to date, and we do not guarantee any ranking, traffic or business result from following information on the Site. You are responsible for decisions you make based on the Service.
7. Intellectual property
The Site, including its design, logo, text, graphics, software and the selection and arrangement of its content, is owned by Bing Rank or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service for its intended purpose in accordance with these Terms.
You may download and use reports generated for your own searches, including in reports for your clients. You may quote short extracts of our articles with a link to the original page, but you may not republish whole articles or copy substantial parts of the Site without our written permission. Search results shown in reports, including titles, snippets and URLs, belong to their respective owners.
8. Messages and feedback
When you contact us, you agree that we may use the information you provide to respond to you, as described in our Privacy Policy. If you send us suggestions or feedback about the Service, you agree that we may use them without any obligation to you.
9. Third-party websites, services and advertising
The Service contains links to third-party websites, including the websites listed in search results, and relies on third-party services such as Microsoft Bing, Google Analytics and Google AdSense. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party websites, services, content, products or privacy practices.
The Site displays advertisements provided by Google and its partners. Any dealings with advertisers, including purchases, are solely between you and the advertiser. The display of an advertisement is not an endorsement by Bing Rank.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT AND ACCURACY. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BING RANK AND ITS OPERATORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, TRAFFIC, RANKINGS, DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
BECAUSE THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED FIFTY US DOLLARS (USD 50).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, such as liability for fraud or, where applicable, for death or personal injury caused by negligence.
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bing Rank and its operators from any claims, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Service.
13. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or block your access to all or part of the Service at any time, without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or are using the Service in a way that could harm us, other users or third parties. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including those on intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability and indemnification.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Changes take effect when they are posted. If you continue to use the Service after changes are posted, you accept the revised Terms.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the country in which the operator of Bing Rank is established, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Before starting any formal proceedings, you agree to contact us first so that we can try to resolve the matter informally. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms affects the mandatory rights you have under the laws of the country where you live, including the right to bring proceedings in your local courts where the law allows.
16. General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms; we may transfer ours as part of a sale or reorganisation of the Service.
17. Contact
Questions about these Terms can be sent to [email protected] or through our contact form.
