1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using BVC — Business Visibility Center (“BVC”, “we”, “us”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. The Service

BVC provides automated business visibility audits across web, search, directories, maps, and AI surfaces. Free users receive a public-facing visibility score and a high-level summary. Paid users receive deeper category breakdowns, action items, monitoring, PDF exports, and verification artifacts.

3. Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for activity under your account. You must provide accurate information and notify us of unauthorized use.

4. Acceptable Use

You may only audit URLs you own, are authorized to audit, or are publicly available for analysis. Do not use BVC to attack, overload, scrape personal data from, or circumvent the security of third-party systems. We rate-limit anonymous and authenticated traffic to protect target sites.

5. Free and Paid Plans

Free access is offered at our discretion and may be rate-limited or modified at any time. Paid subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, ACH, and approved in-house financing for qualified special projects.

6. Audit Output and Verification

Visibility Scores, Confidence levels, Action Items, and QR Verification Records are produced deterministically against versioned standards. Once an audit is marked complete, its score and evidence snapshot are immutable. Verification records may be revoked if the underlying audit is found to be invalid.

7. Intellectual Property

BVC, the Business Visibility Center brand, standards, scoring logic, and report templates are owned by us. You retain ownership of your data and audit results, and grant us a license to process them to operate the service.

8. Disclaimers

The service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. Visibility audits are diagnostic and informational; they do not guarantee search rankings, traffic, conversions, or business outcomes.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising from your use of the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate access for violation of these Terms or for abusive use of the platform. You may close your account at any time.

11. Changes

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced on the homepage or via email. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.

12. Contact

Questions about these Terms can be sent via the support channel listed in your account settings.
