Terms of Service

1. Who we are

DealBot ("DealBot", "we", "us") is operated by Technologies Dealbot inc., a company incorporated in Québec, Canada. You can reach us anytime at [email protected].

2. Your agreement with us

These terms govern your use of DealBot at dealbot.ai and app.dealbot.ai, including search, listing verification, accounts, and any paid plans (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.

You must be old enough to form a binding contract in your province or territory of residence, or use the Service under the supervision of a parent or guardian who agrees to these terms on your behalf.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes rights you have under laws that apply to you and cannot be waived by contract, including the Civil Code of Québec, Québec's Consumer Protection Act, and equivalent consumer protection legislation elsewhere in Canada. If any provision of these terms conflicts with such a right, the right prevails.

3. What DealBot is and isn't

DealBot is a search and analysis tool. It searches third-party second-hand marketplaces, aggregates publicly available listings, and provides price comparisons, deal scores, and market context.

4. Accounts

You don't need an account to search. If you create one, you agree to provide a valid email address, keep your credentials confidential, and accept responsibility for activity under your account. One person, one account; creating multiple accounts to evade limits is prohibited.

You can delete your account at any time; see the Privacy Policy for what happens to your data.

5. Free service and paid subscriptions

The core search service is free. Paid plans (Pro and Flipper) are not yet available; when they launch, the following will apply:

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Day-to-day usage limits are described on the Rules & Limits page, which forms part of these terms.

7. Third-party marketplaces and links

Search results link to third-party marketplaces and websites. Those sites have their own terms and privacy policies, which apply to you when you visit them. We are not responsible for their content, practices, or availability. Marketplace names and trademarks belong to their respective owners; their appearance on DealBot does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.

8. Affiliate disclosure

Some outbound links are affiliate links. In particular, DealBot participates in the eBay Partner Network: when you click an eBay listing on DealBot and make a purchase, we may earn a commission. This never affects which listings you see, their ranking, or their deal scores; results are ordered by deal quality only.

9. AI-generated content and no advice

Deal scores, market analyses, verdicts, price estimates, and assistant responses are generated by automated systems, including artificial intelligence, from data that may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. They are provided for general information only and constitute neither professional advice (financial, legal, mechanical, or otherwise) nor a guarantee of any item's value, condition, authenticity, or availability. Always verify important information independently before buying or selling.

10. Intellectual property

The Service, including the DealBot name, logo, software, design, and original content, belongs to us or our licensors and is protected by law. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service as intended. Listing content displayed in results remains the property of its respective owners.

You keep any rights you hold in what you submit (searches, descriptions, photos). You grant us the license needed to operate the Service: to process, analyze, store, and display your submissions for the purpose of providing and improving the Service, as described in the Privacy Policy.

11. Warranties and limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of uninterrupted operation, error-free results, or fitness for a particular purpose; and we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of profit, or losses arising from transactions concluded with third parties, your reliance on results or scores, or the acts of third-party marketplaces.

This section does not exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for our own intentional or gross fault under the Civil Code of Québec, bodily or moral injury, or any warranty or remedy granted by Québec's Consumer Protection Act or other mandatory consumer protection law. If you are a consumer, you retain all such rights in full.

12. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or restrict access, temporarily and usually automatically, to protect the Service from abuse, and may suspend or terminate accounts that seriously or repeatedly violate these terms. Where reasonable, we'll tell you why and give you a chance to respond. You may stop using the Service, or delete your account, at any time. Sections of these terms that by their nature should survive termination (including 8 through 11 and 14) survive it.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the Service evolves. For material changes affecting subscribers, we will give at least 30 days' written notice setting out the new or amended clause, the former clause where applicable, and the effective date. You may refuse the change and cancel without cost or penalty before it takes effect, as provided by Québec's Consumer Protection Act. For non-material changes or changes affecting only free features, the updated terms take effect when posted on this page, with the effective date above revised accordingly.

14. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Québec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Disputes are subject to the courts of Québec or, if you are a consumer, the courts of your place of residence where mandatory law so provides. Nothing in these terms requires you to arbitrate or prevents you from exercising any recourse available to you as a consumer, including before the courts or the Office de la protection du consommateur.

15. Language

Une version française de ces conditions peut être obtenue sur demande à [email protected]. In case of discrepancy between the French and English versions, the version most favourable to the consumer prevails for Québec consumers.
