  • 3. Service Overview

    3.1 BrandSearch provides a unified search engine for aftermarket domain names by aggregating, normalizing, and indexing listings from multiple third-party domain marketplaces on a daily basis. You may use BrandSearch to search, filter and sort available listings in our database. When you elect to acquire a domain, BrandSearch will redirect you to the applicable third-party marketplace (which may include an affiliate link). BrandSearch is not a party to any purchase transaction and makes no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, availability, pricing or terms of those listings.

    3.2 Availability Disclaimer. While BrandSearch aggregates daily feeds from third-party marketplaces and strives to show only active “for sale” listings, BrandSearch does not control the timing or accuracy of each marketplace’s data. Accordingly, BrandSearch cannot guarantee that any particular domain displayed in our search results remains available for purchase. You agree that BrandSearch shall have no liability for any listing that is shown as “for sale” yet proves to be unavailable when you attempt to acquire it from the underlying marketplace.

    3.3 Affiliate Disclosure. BrandSearch may receive compensation from third-party marketplaces when you are redirected via an affiliate link. Such compensation in no way influences or skews the selection, ranking, or presentation of domain search results. Compensation does not affect your pricing nor create any additional cost to you.

    3.4 Value-Added Domain Services. In addition to the core search engine, BrandSearch offers optional supplemental services—such as automated domain appraisals, WHOIS record lookups, historical ownership and usage reports, backlink/toxicity analyses, and trademark-risk assessments. These services may be provided free of charge or for a fee, at BrandSearch’s sole discretion, and are offered “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without warranty or guarantee of any kind. You acknowledge that these informational reports are not a substitute for independent professional advice and agree not to rely on them as legal, financial or investment guidance.

    3.5 All information is provided for research purposes only. Domain valuations and dollar values should not be taken literally. The valuation data is simply an aggregated summary of the various metrics associated with a domain or site.

    3.6 All information, including domain name score, valuation information, search volume information, cost per click information, whois information and other analytics is subject to change without notice.

    3.7 Data services and tools are subject to information availability and may not be complete, accurate or up to date.

    3.8 Trademark analysis and risk assessment information is provided for informational purposes only and should not be taken into consideration when making legal decisions or purchasing or selling domains. You agree not to hold BrandSearch responsible or liable for any damages which may result from the use of trademark analysis services. Always consult a legal professional when assessing legal risks related to domains.

    3.9 All information provided by BrandSearch is the property of BrandSearch and cannot be republished, resold, redistributed or made publicly accessible without written consent from BrandSearch.

    3.11 All services provided by BrandSearch are licensed for personal and small business use only. Enterprise users (corporations with more than 50 employees) must obtain an Enterprise license in order to use BrandSearch.

    3.12 While BrandSearch takes measures to ensure service availability, certain high volume queries by our customers may result in Services being inaccessible or slow. In the event of Services becoming inaccessible or slow, you agree to notify BrandSearch of problem and reduce query load.

    3.13 You acknowledge that you have been warned and understand that purchase and sale decisions should never be based solely on appraisal information or other information provided on our site or by an BrandSearch employee.
