This page governs every visit to bestdataroom.net (the “site”), operated by the Best Data Room editorial team (“we”, “us”). Browsing or otherwise using the site means you accept these rules. Anyone who disagrees with them should stop using the site.
What the site is for
Best Data Room produces independent rankings, reviews, shortlists by use case and guides covering VDR software. Think of it as a research tool for narrowing your options and sharpening the questions you put to vendors.
Our content is general in nature. None of it amounts to legal, financial, tax, security or investment advice, and none of it reflects the specifics of your deal, your jurisdiction or your obligations. Get guidance from a qualified adviser and confirm details with the vendor itself before you lean on anything here for a transaction.
Reading or using the site does not make you our client, and it sets up no advisory or professional relationship with us.
Scores and opinions
Every score and verdict here is an editorial judgement, produced by the method set out on how we rate. Someone else could look at identical evidence and land elsewhere. A strong score is no guarantee a vendor suits your needs, and a weaker one is no proof it cannot. Test the product yourself and read the vendor’s contract before signing up.
Prices and product details
All prices appear in USD as rough guides only. They capture what we saw at our most recent check, and vendors revise pricing, packages, features and terms without notifying us. Where a vendor only gives quotes individually, we mark the price “Custom”.
We make every effort to keep details correct and current, yet we cannot promise that each price, feature or certification still holds when you visit. What the vendor states on its own website and in its contract always prevails. Found something stale? Let us know via the contact page.
Partner links
A number of our links are partner links. Should you follow one and then purchase, the vendor may pay us a referral fee, and your price does not change. We label partner links, and they have no influence on scores or rankings. The full details are in our affiliate disclosure.
Once you click through to a vendor, your relationship is with that vendor alone. We do not join any contract you sign with a vendor, and we take no responsibility for what it sells, how it prices, how it treats data or how it supports customers. Disagreements over a vendor’s service must be settled between you and the vendor.
Links to other websites
Our pages point to outside websites, such as vendors and official bodies like regulators and standards organisations. Those websites are beyond our control, so we cannot answer for what they publish, whether they stay online, or how they handle privacy. Linking to a page does not mean we back everything it says.
Using our content
We own, or hold a licence for, the writing, scoring model, tables, artwork and layout of the site, and copyright and related laws protect them.
Feel free to read, print and pass on pages for personal use or inside your organisation, and to quote brief passages provided you credit and link the source page. Unless we agree in writing, you must not:
- reproduce large sections of our content, scores or rankings included, on a different website or inside a product;
- harvest, crawl or mass-download pages, other than ordinary indexing by search engines;
- use the site’s content to train or feed automated systems that reproduce it;
- present our content as your own, or suggest that we endorse you or your product.
Vendor names and logos remain their owners’ property; they appear here purely so readers can tell which product we mean.
Acceptable use
While on the site, you must not:
- break any law or anyone else’s rights;
- try to gain unauthorised access to the site, its hosting or its systems, or interfere with how they work;
- introduce malware or send automated traffic intended to overload the site;
- use the contact form to send spam, abuse or confidential deal documents.
No warranties
We offer the site on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Within legal limits, we give no assurance that it will run without interruption or errors, that it suits any specific purpose, or that its content is complete, correct or current.
Limits on our liability
Within legal limits, we accept no liability for loss or harm resulting from using or depending on the site or what it contains. This covers indirect or consequential loss; lost profit, revenue, data or business opportunities; and losses that stem from your interactions with a vendor.
These terms leave untouched any liability the law forbids us to restrict, for example for fraud, or for negligence causing death or personal injury. Consumers also retain whatever statutory rights these terms are unable to override.
Privacy
For the way personal data is handled, see our privacy policy.
Updates
We can alter, pause or withdraw any section of the site whenever we choose, scores, reviews and whole pages included, and we can revise these terms too. Check the date above for the latest revision; whichever version appears here on the day you visit is the one that governs your use.
If part of these terms is unenforceable
Should a court rule that a clause here is invalid or cannot be enforced, every other clause remains in force.
