These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Beeranked ("Beeranked", "we", "us"), including our websites and the Beeranked Content Studio (together, the "Service"). Beeranked is operated from Belgium. By creating an account, starting a demo, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you are using the Service on behalf of a business, you confirm you are authorised to bind that business, and "you" refers to that business.
1. The Service
Beeranked is a subscription software product that helps you create, optimise, translate, and publish search-optimised content and connect it to your own website or domain. We may add, change, or remove features over time to improve the Service.
2. Accounts and eligibility
- You must be at least 16 years old and able to enter into a binding contract to use the Service.
- You are responsible for the accuracy of your account information and for keeping your credentials secure.
- You are responsible for all activity that happens under your account.
- A demo account is a passwordless, no-commitment way to try the Service. Demo workspaces may be limited and inactive demos may be removed after a period of dormancy.
3. Plans, billing, and taxes
- Paid plans are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or yearly, as you select) through our payment processor, Stripe. Current prices are shown on our pricing page.
- Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current price, until you cancel.
- Prices may be exclusive or inclusive of VAT or other taxes depending on your location, as shown at checkout. Where we are required to charge tax, it will be added to your invoice.
- We may change our prices. If we change the price of your plan, we will give you reasonable notice, and the new price will apply from your next billing period.
- If a payment fails, we may retry it and may suspend or downgrade your access until payment is resolved.
4. Free trial, cancellation, and refunds
We offer a free, no-commitment demo so you can try the full Studio before you pay. Because of this, our refund policy is straightforward:
- You can cancel at any time from your account settings. When you cancel, your subscription stops renewing and you keep access until the end of the billing period you have already paid for.
- Payments are non-refundable, including for partial billing periods and unused time, except where a refund is required by applicable law.
EU and other consumer rights. If you are a consumer in the EU or another jurisdiction that grants a statutory right of withdrawal, you may normally have a period (typically 14 days) to withdraw from a purchase. By subscribing to a paid plan, you expressly request that we begin providing the Service immediately, and you acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the Service has been fully performed, and that for the portion already supplied no refund is due. Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory consumer rights you have under the law of your country of residence.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- break any law, or infringe anyone's intellectual property, privacy, or other rights;
- publish content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, deceptive, or harmful;
- send spam, run malware, or attempt to deceive search engines in ways that violate their guidelines or terms;
- gain unauthorised access to, disrupt, or overload the Service or its infrastructure;
- resell or provide the Service to third parties except as expressly permitted by your plan;
- reverse engineer or copy the Service, except to the extent the law permits.
We may investigate suspected violations and take appropriate action, including removing content or suspending accounts.
6. Your content
- You own your content. You keep all rights to the content, brands, and materials you create or upload ("Your Content").
- You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive licence to host, store, process, adapt (for example, to format, translate, or optimise it as part of the Service), and publicly display and serve Your Content, solely as needed to operate and provide the Service to you.
- You are solely responsible for Your Content and for having all rights and permissions necessary to use it, including for any third-party material you upload.
- If you believe content on the Service infringes your rights, contact us at [email protected] and we will review and act appropriately.
7. Our intellectual property
The Service itself, including its software, design, branding, and the Beeranked name and logo, belongs to Beeranked and its licensors. These Terms do not grant you any right to our intellectual property except the limited right to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.
8. Third-party services and custom domains
The Service integrates with third-party providers (for example, Stripe for payments and Cloudflare for delivery and custom domains) and may let you connect your own domain or third-party platforms. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms, and you are responsible for any domain or account you connect.
9. Availability and warranties
We work hard to keep the Service available and reliable, but the Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will achieve any particular search ranking or business result. This section does not exclude any warranty that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Beeranked will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including any mandatory consumer rights.
11. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold Beeranked harmless from any claims, damages, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from Your Content or from your breach of these Terms or of applicable law, except to the extent caused by us.
12. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, fail to pay, or use the Service in a way that creates risk or legal exposure for us or others. On termination, your right to use the Service ends. We will make Your Content available for export for a reasonable period where practicable, after which it may be deleted.
13. Privacy
Our handling of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, notify you. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Belgium, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and disputes will be subject to the competent courts of Belgium. If you are a consumer, you keep the benefit of any mandatory protections and the right to bring proceedings under the law of your country of residence, and you may use the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform.
16. General
- If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
- Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
- You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them as part of a reorganisation or sale of our business.
- These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any plan details shown at checkout, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
