Terms and Conditions

Last updated: April 22, 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms and Conditions", "Terms") govern your relationship with the GetDeploying website and related services, including API access, operated by us (collectively, our "Services").

By accessing or using our Services, creating an account, or purchasing paid Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use our Services.

1. Definitions

In these Terms, unless the context otherwise requires, the following definitions apply:

"Business Customer" means any person or entity acting for purposes related to its trade, business, craft, or profession.

"Company", "we", "us", "our" means the operator of the Services, as identified in our Legal Notice.

"Company Entities" means the Company and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, consultants, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors, assigns, and agents.

"Services" has the meaning given in the introduction above.

"User Content" means any data, text, images, files, or materials you upload, submit, or transmit through the Services, including listing data, advertising materials, and API submissions.

"You", "your" means the individual or legal entity that accesses or uses the Services. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and "you" refers to both you and that organization.

2. Eligibility and accounts

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Services. You may not use the Services if we have previously suspended or terminated your access.

By using the Services, you represent that your use complies with applicable law.

By subscribing to a paid plan or purchasing paid Services, you represent that you are acting in a business or professional capacity.

If you create an account, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You must notify us promptly if you become aware of any unauthorized use.

3. Service description and permitted use

GetDeploying is a cloud infrastructure comparison and information platform. The Services provide editorial content, comparison tables, rankings, pricing data, and related features for cloud providers. The Services may also include advertising placements, sponsored content, and programmatic API access to comparison data.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, we do not provide or operate the third-party cloud services referenced through the Services.

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to access and use our Services.

We may modify, update, or discontinue features of the Services at any time. Where a change materially reduces the functionality of a paid feature during an active billing period, we will use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice.

4. Billing, renewal, and taxes

Payments. Payments are processed through Stripe, our third-party payment processor. By making a purchase, you agree that your payment information may be processed by Stripe in accordance with its terms and policies.

Payment authorization. By purchasing or using paid Services, you authorize us and our payment processor to charge the payment method associated with your account for applicable fees, including subscription fees, renewal fees, one-time purchases, add-ons, upgrades, overages, and custom services.

Subscriptions and renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled. You may stop future renewals at any time through the Services or by using any cancellation method we make available to you. Unless mandatory law requires an earlier end date, or you validly exercise an extraordinary termination right, cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

Consumer cancellation rights. Where a consumer exercises a statutory cancellation right through a legally required cancellation flow, we will process the cancellation in accordance with applicable law. If the consumer does not specify a cancellation date, the cancellation takes effect at the earliest possible time under applicable law.

Price changes. We may change the price of paid Services on at least 30 days' notice. Changes take effect at the start of the next billing period after the notice period.

Failed payments and overdue amounts. If a payment fails, we may retry the charge automatically. If the amount remains unpaid, we may notify you and issue an invoice. Unless otherwise stated, payment is due within 14 days after the amount became overdue. We may suspend access to paid Services until the outstanding balance is paid.

Refunds. Except as required by mandatory law or expressly stated in these Terms, paid fees are non-refundable. We may offer refunds or credits at our discretion on a case-by-case basis.

Taxes. Prices are shown inclusive or exclusive of applicable taxes as stated at checkout. We will charge VAT, sales tax, GST, or similar transaction taxes where required. Tax may be adjusted if you provide a valid business tax ID. Each party is responsible for taxes on its own income. If you are required to withhold tax from payments to us, that withholding is your responsibility.

5. Acceptable use

You may not:

• use the Services in violation of applicable law or in a way that infringes the rights of others, including privacy, intellectual property, or publicity rights
• interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services, our systems, or other users' accounts
• circumvent rate limits, access controls, or security measures
• reverse-engineer or decompile the Services, except as permitted by mandatory law
• scrape, extract, or systematically copy content from the Services, including for AI or machine learning training purposes, without our prior written consent
• collect, harvest, or misuse personal data of other users except as authorized
• host, transmit, or facilitate malware, phishing, fraud, spam, or other harmful activity
• engage in deception, fraud, or exploitation of users, providers, or third parties
• resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Services or their content without authorization
• submit false, manipulated, or misleading listings, advertising materials, or other information

6. Customer content and data

You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting User Content through the Services, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, adapt, format, transmit, and display your User Content solely as necessary to operate, provide, secure, support, maintain, and improve the Services. This license includes use by our sub-processors and affiliates solely for those purposes. This license ends when your User Content is deleted from our systems, except for copies retained as required for backups, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or abuse investigations.

You are responsible for the legality and accuracy of your User Content. You represent that you have the necessary rights to submit it and that it does not violate applicable law or the rights of any third party.

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Services, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use that feedback for any purpose without obligation to you.

We may use aggregated, de-identified data derived from use of the Services for analytics, research, and service improvement. Aggregated data does not identify individual users.

For details on how we handle personal data, see our Privacy Policy.

7. Data lifecycle

Account deletion. You can delete your account by contacting us. When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your User Content from active systems without undue delay. Some data may take longer to remove where we are legally required to keep it or where needed for billing, security, or fraud prevention. Deleted data may persist in backups, caches, or redundant storage until those are overwritten or cleared in the ordinary course.

Backups. We maintain backups for operational continuity only. Backups are not a data retention or recovery service.

Dormant accounts. If your account has been inactive for 12 months and has no active subscription, we may delete it. Where reasonably practicable, we will try to notify you at your account email address before doing so. We may skip notice where the email is undeliverable or where immediate action is needed for security, abuse prevention, or legal compliance.

Search engine caches. When content is removed from the Services, it may still appear in search engine results or other third-party caches for a period of time. Those systems are operated independently, and we cannot control or guarantee when they update or remove cached copies.

8. Intellectual property

The Services, including their design, text, graphics, software, data compilations, and all other content we create or license, are owned by the Company or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

No intellectual property rights are granted to you except the limited use rights described in these Terms.

9. Comparison data, listings, and advertising

We do not guarantee that comparison data, rankings, pricing information, or third-party information available through the Services are accurate, complete, or current. Data may be sourced from third parties and may contain errors or become outdated. We may change our methods, criteria, and presentation at any time.

Provider listings are subject to our approval. To maintain data quality, we may use waitlists, automated checks, manual review, and other validation measures. We may delay, withhold, remove, or reject listings or pricing data we believe are inaccurate, manipulated, incomplete, or unavailable. Repeated submission of manipulated pricing data may result in a permanent ban from the Services.

Advertising and sponsorship services. We offer advertising placements and sponsorships to Business Customers. Impressions are generally allocated among active sponsors based on booked slots, but exact delivery is not guaranteed. We may exclude ads from pages where they are not contextually relevant. We retain editorial discretion over all advertising placements and may reject, modify, or remove ads at any time. We do not guarantee impressions, clicks, leads, conversions, sales, or any other results.

Analytics reporting for cloud providers. We offer analytics reporting to providers about their presence on the Services. Reports contain aggregated, de-identified metrics such as outbound click counts, engagement with a provider's branded pages, country-level breakdowns of engaged visitors, and related interest signals. Reports do not identify individual visitors and do not include IP addresses, user agents, session identifiers, or device fingerprints. We do not guarantee that the metrics in a report are complete or error-free, and we may change the metrics, methodology, or presentation at any time. We do not guarantee clicks, leads, conversions, or any other business outcome.

Access to a report is granted through a secret, token-authenticated link issued to the provider. The link is a confidential credential. You are responsible for keeping it secure and for all access that occurs through it, and must not share it publicly, post it where it may be indexed, or allow unauthorized access. You must notify us promptly if you become aware of any unauthorized use. We may revoke or rotate a link at any time, including for suspected misuse, non-payment, or security reasons.

Affiliate links. The Services may include affiliate links, which we disclose through visible labels. Unless expressly stated otherwise, affiliate relationships do not affect editorial content or rankings.

Third-party links and services. The inclusion of third-party links, products, services, advertisements, or affiliate links on our platform does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by us. We do not vouch for, and are not responsible for, the quality, content, availability, or business practices of these third parties.

Third-party trademarks. Product names, logos, and trademarks appearing in the Services belong to their respective owners. Their appearance is strictly for identification and comparison purposes and does not imply any official affiliation, sponsorship, or partnership with us.

10. API terms

API access is available to authorized users with valid API credentials. Your API key is a confidential credential. You are responsible for keeping it secure and must not embed it in client-side code, share it publicly, or allow unauthorized access.

We may set and update rate limits and usage quotas for the API. We will use reasonable efforts to provide notice of material changes to rate limits.

We do not guarantee backward compatibility of the API. Features, endpoints, and response formats may change.

You may not use the API to systematically extract, redistribute, mirror, or resell the data available through the Services, or to build a product that replicates the core functionality of the Services.

Third-party applications or integrations that connect to the API are not endorsed or supported by us.

11. No reliance

The Services and all content made available through them are provided for general informational purposes only. They do not constitute advice of any kind and should not be relied on as the sole basis for any decision. You are responsible for evaluating the accuracy, completeness, and suitability of any information and for obtaining independent advice where appropriate.

12. User responsibilities

You are responsible for:

• maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account
• keeping your contact information, including your email address, accurate and up to date
• ensuring your use of the Services complies with applicable law
• maintaining your own independent backups of any data you store through the Services
• independently verifying information obtained through the Services before making important decisions
• the accuracy and legality of User Content you submit

13. Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our Services are provided "as is" and "as available". The Company Entities make no representations or warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of:

• availability, continuity, or uninterrupted operation
• accuracy, completeness, or reliability
• security, freedom from harmful code, or freedom from unauthorized access
• compatibility, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose
• non-infringement

We also disclaim any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.

The Services may include or depend on third-party content, data, infrastructure, APIs, integrations, links, and providers that are outside our control. We are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, performance, changes, privacy practices, or terms. Your use of any third-party service is governed by that service's own terms and policies.

Nothing in this section excludes or limits your mandatory statutory warranty rights under applicable law, including any mandatory rights under the laws of your country of residence.

14. Limitation of liability

What is never limited. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body, or health, mandatory product liability, or liability under any other mandatory statute that cannot be limited.

Essential obligations. Where we breach an obligation essential to the performance of this contract, our liability is limited to foreseeable, typical damages.

Consequential damages. Subject to the above, the Company Entities are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, revenue, business opportunity, goodwill, or data, to the extent not resulting from breach of an essential obligation described above.

Aggregate cap. Subject to the above, our total aggregate liability under these Terms will not exceed the total fees you have paid to us in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you have not paid any fees, our total liability will not exceed EUR 100.

Data loss. We are not liable for the loss of data to the extent that the damage would not have occurred if you had maintained regular, risk-appropriate backups of your data. Where liability for data loss arises from breach of an essential obligation, our liability is limited to the typical costs of restoration that would have been incurred if you had maintained such backups.

15. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company Entities from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to:

• your violation of these Terms
• your User Content
• your misuse of the Services
• your infringement of any third-party rights

The Company may, at its own expense, assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with that defense.

This section does not apply to the extent a claim results from the Company's negligence or willful misconduct.

16. Suspension and termination

Suspension. We may suspend or restrict your access to the Services, in whole or in part, if we reasonably believe you have:

• breached these Terms or our Acceptable Use rules
• engaged in fraud, deception, or phishing
• created a security, abuse, or legal risk to the Services, other users, providers, or third parties
• used the Services to host, transmit, or facilitate malware, spam, or harmful activity
• circumvented rate limits, access controls, or security measures
• attempted unauthorized access to the Services or our systems
• failed to pay outstanding fees after notice and a reasonable cure period
• violated applicable sanctions, export control, or other laws

For immediate security, fraud, abuse, or legal-risk events, we may act without advance notice.

Content and listing removal. We may remove, restrict, or decline to display any listing, advertisement, or other content at our discretion, including for policy violations, inaccuracy, or editorial reasons. Removal of content does not necessarily terminate your account.

Termination for cause. We may terminate your account for material breach, fraud, repeated violations, unlawful use, or other misuse that materially harms the Services, Company Entities, users, or third parties.

Termination for convenience. For free accounts, we may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services on reasonable notice. For paid subscriptions, we may terminate on at least 30 days' notice, effective no earlier than the end of the current paid billing period.

Prepaid refund. If we terminate your paid subscription or access without cause before the end of a prepaid period, we will refund the prepaid fees allocable to the unused remainder of that period.

Your right to terminate. You may close your account at any time by contacting us. Cancellation of paid subscriptions takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

On termination. Your usage rights cease. Access to paid features stops. Data handling after termination is described in the Data lifecycle section above.

17. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Germany, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

We encourage you to contact us first if you have a dispute. We will try to resolve it informally within 30 days.

If informal resolution fails, the exclusive venue for disputes is the courts of Munich, Germany.

If you are a consumer, mandatory consumer protection laws, including mandatory jurisdiction and venue rights, remain unaffected.

We are not willing and not obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Verbraucherschlichtungsstelle).

18. Changes to terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will notify you by email or through the Services at least 30 days before they take effect. Changes required by law or necessary to address urgent security, legal, or operational issues or risks may take effect sooner. Non-material editorial or clarification changes may take effect upon posting.

If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you may close your account before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Services after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you are a consumer, mandatory consumer protection laws remain unaffected.

19. General provisions

Force majeure. Neither party is liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, internet, telecommunications, or power failures, government action, or interruptions affecting third-party infrastructure.

Export controls and sanctions. You may not use the Services in violation of applicable export-control, trade, or sanctions laws. You represent that you are not located in, organized under the laws of, or ordinarily resident in a country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions that prohibit your use of the Services. You also represent that you are not identified on any applicable restricted-party list.

No waiver. If we do not enforce a provision of these Terms, that does not waive our right to enforce it later.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or, where necessary, severed only to the minimum extent required, and the rest of these Terms will remain in effect.

Assignment. We may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, or transfer of the business related to the Services. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent.

Notices. We may provide notices to you by email, through the Services, or by other reasonable electronic means using the contact information associated with your account. We are not liable for any failure of delivery or receipt caused by outdated or unreachable contact information associated with your account.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with any documents expressly incorporated by reference, form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements or understandings about them.

Language. If we provide a translation of these Terms, the English version controls to the extent permitted by applicable law.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not give any third party any rights to enforce them, except that the Company Entities may rely on any provisions that expressly protect them.

Independent parties. Your relationship with us is that of independent parties. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between you and us.

Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.

Statutory rights. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits your statutory rights that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

Survival. The following sections continue to apply after these Terms end: Intellectual property, Disclaimers, Limitation of liability, Indemnity, accrued payment obligations, Governing law and disputes, and any other provisions that by their nature should survive termination.
