Terms of use
The rules for using AppFinder, listing an app and buying promotions, in plain language.
Placeholder legal text
Using AppFinder
You can browse, search, compare and ask for recommendations without an account. Information on listings comes from companies, from public sources and from us. Check important details, such as pricing, with the vendor before you buy.
Accounts and companies
- You need a verified email address to claim a listing or make a payment.
- Keep your sign-in details to yourself. You’re responsible for what happens in your account.
- A company account can have several members with different roles. Members with the right role can edit listings and buy promotions for the company.
Listings and verification
- New listings and some edits are reviewed before they appear.
- To manage a listing, a company must prove it controls the app’s domain. Verification is free.
- Listings must be accurate. We don’t accept claims such as “#1”, “best in the world”, “guaranteed” or invented awards and partnerships, and we may edit or hold content that uses them.
- We may correct, hide or remove a listing that breaks these rules, and revoke a verification that was obtained improperly.
Paid products
- Prices come from our price list at the time you start checkout and are in US dollars. Payments are processed by Dodo Payments, which acts as merchant of record, calculates tax and issues invoices.
- A purchase takes effect only after the payment is confirmed. For leaderboard bids, your position is decided at that moment and may differ from the expected position.
- Every paid placement is shown with its label. You can’t buy a placement without one.
- Priority review speeds up review; it never guarantees approval.
- Paying for promotion never changes organic rankings, reviews, verification or AI recommendations.
- Pro is a subscription that renews until you cancel. It adds profile features, buyer insights and buyer messages only.
- Buyer insights are anonymous totals of what buyers asked our advisor for. Use them to improve your product and your listing. You may not try to identify individual buyers from them, combine them with other data for that purpose, or generate advisor requests to influence them.
- If buyers contact you through your profile, use their name, email address and message only to answer them. Don’t add them to mailing lists, sell or share them, or contact them about anything they didn’t ask about.
Cancellations, refunds and disputes are explained in the advertising disclosure.
Suspension
We may suspend an account or company that breaks these terms, for example by faking clicks or advisor requests, impersonating another company or misleading visitors. Promotions of a suspended company stop showing.
Our responsibility
We work to keep listings accurate and the service available, but AppFinder is provided as it is. We aren’t responsible for the products listed or for decisions made from the information here.
Changes
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we’ll update this page and tell account holders by email before the change takes effect.
