Terms of Use
What This Site Is
This site publishes educational information about buying and selling small businesses. Using it does not create an advisory, brokerage, fiduciary, or professional relationship of any kind.
Not Professional Advice
Nothing here is financial, legal, tax, investment, or accounting advice. Decisions about buying, selling, financing, or operating a business should be made with your own qualified advisors.
Accuracy and Change
We work to keep information accurate, but third-party details change without notice. Verify anything that matters against the primary source. Content, tools, and features may change or be removed at any time.
Third Parties
Links to third-party sites, products, and services are provided for reference. We do not control them and are not responsible for them. Where a link generates a commission for this site, that is disclosed alongside the link.
Citing the Data
The figures the site computes from public sources may be reused and cited freely, provided the citation names this site and links to it. Figures the page attributes to a third party belong to that source; cite the source, not this site.
Tools and Calculators
Calculators and interactive tools produce estimates from the inputs you provide. Their outputs are illustrations, not quotes, offers, or predictions.
Your Use
You may use the site for personal and internal business purposes. Do not misuse the site or use it for anything unlawful. Content is protected by applicable intellectual-property law.
Limitation of Liability
The site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for losses arising from use of the site or reliance on its content.
These Terms
Continued use of the site after changes to these terms constitutes acceptance. Questions about them go to the address on the contact page; the suggestion form is for the directory, not for legal questions.
