Terms of Service

The Service is operated by [legal name of operator], [legal form — e.g. sole proprietor / private limited company], based in [country] (“we”, “us”, “our”). The Service is provided from https://outbid.works. Required provider details are at [link to imprint or company details page, if your jurisdiction requires one].

• Legal and listing notices: surajk543@gmail.com
• Public contact: @surajk543 on X

These Terms work together with the public Rules. If the Rules and these Terms conflict, these Terms control.

outbid.works is a paid public ranking. You may pay to list a video and to occupy a rank based on the amount paid, according to the Rules. Listings are paid advertisements — not editorial reviews, certifications, endorsements, or independent rankings.

A payment buys a chance to appear on the board at the rank that amount can take at the time it is fulfilled. It does not buy views, clicks, subscribers, revenue, exclusive placement, a fixed duration at a specific rank, search-engine ranking, or any particular result. Someone else can pay more and outrank you. We may change, pause, or discontinue features, including categories and ranking formulas.

• You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract.
• If you use the Service for a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company, and “you” includes that company.
• You may not use the Service if you are prohibited from receiving services under the laws of [governing jurisdiction] or another applicable jurisdiction, including trade sanctions.

Checkout is processed by [payment processor]. We do not collect or store full payment-card numbers. The processor's terms and privacy notice also apply to the payment itself. Amounts are priced in US dollars. Applicable taxes may be added at checkout.

Rank amounts, the $1 minimum, the $1 increment required to take #1, and raise-only-the-difference charges are described in the Rules and shown before you pay. Completing checkout is an offer to buy ranking placement on those terms. Rank is assigned when payment is confirmed and the listing is written to the board, at whatever position that amount then supports.

All payments are final and not refundable. Ranking placement is a digital service that begins as soon as payment is confirmed: the listing is created or the rank is raised, and the paid amount is counted on the public board. Being outranked later, fewer clicks than you hoped for, a category you dislike, downtime, or a later removal for breach of these Terms does not create a refund.

By completing checkout you request that we start this digital service immediately and acknowledge that you lose any statutory right of withdrawal or cooling-off period to the extent that law allows that waiver. Where a mandatory consumer right cannot be waived, we honor that right. Chargebacks, payment disputes, or reversed payments without a legally required basis are a breach of these Terms; we may remove the listing and refuse future use of the Service.

You may only list a video that you own or are authorized to represent. You must hold the rights to the video and to send visitors to it, and any channel, product, or site it promotes must comply with the law that applies to it, including any company or operator details that law requires it to display.

Details that are missing, fake, incomplete, impersonating someone else, or that we cannot reasonably verify are grounds for removal. We may take down a listing at any time if those details are not in order, without refund.

By submitting a URL or payment, you represent and warrant that:

• You have the right to list that video and to send visitors to it.
• The listing and destination comply with all applicable laws, including advertising, consumer, privacy, intellectual-property, and regulated-industry rules.
• You are not impersonating another person, brand, or company, and you are not claiming a rank for a competitor's video without authorization.
• The destination is not malware, phishing, a scam, or content whose primary purpose is to deceive viewers.
• The information you submit is accurate, and you will keep it accurate.

In addition to the Rules, you may not list or use the Service for:

• Sexual, pornographic, or adult-platform content; chat, invite, or messaging-group links; or link shorteners used to hide the real destination.
• Content that is illegal, fraudulent, defamatory, harassing, hateful, violent, or that exploits children.
• Counterfeit goods, unauthorized streaming, or other infringement of copyright, trademark, or other rights.
• Offers that require licenses you do not have, including certain financial, medical, gambling, or weapons-related offers.
• Interfering with the Service: scraping beyond ordinary browsing, manipulating click counts, bypassing rate limits, automated rank claims without our written permission, or reverse engineering except as allowed by mandatory law.

We may refuse, delay, edit, recategorize, hide, or permanently remove any listing, rank, or related page, with or without notice, including where we believe these Terms, the Rules, or the law may have been broken; where a rights holder or a platform complains; where required details are missing or invalid; or where we think the listing creates legal, security, or reputational risk. Removal does not entitle you to a refund.

To run the board we fetch and display publicly available information about listed videos: titles, descriptions, and poster images served by the hosting platform. We use that material only to identify the listed video on outbid.works, to show visitors where a paid ranking leads, and to operate, moderate, and improve the Service.

We use third-party names and marks solely to identify the video or platform being listed. That is not an affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement from the rights holder unless the lister is that rights holder. [Confirm with counsel that this framing works in your jurisdiction — nominative fair use is a US doctrine and has no exact equivalent everywhere.]

outbid.works, our wordmark, and the look of the Service are ours. You may not copy the Service, scrape the board for a competing ranking product, or use our brand in a way that suggests we endorse you. YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, Twitch, and other third-party names remain their owners' property.

You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, cache, reproduce, adapt (for sizing, formatting, and ranking display), and publicly display the listing and the public metadata we fetch, for as long as needed to operate, promote, and keep an archive of the Service. You also grant visitors a right to see that listing on the Service. If you want a listing taken down, email surajk543@gmail.com. Takedown does not undo a completed payment.

If you believe a listing infringes your copyright, trademark, publicity, or other rights, or that a listed video is unlawful, email surajk543@gmail.com with: (1) your name and contact details; (2) the listing URL on outbid.works; (3) the destination video URL; (4) a description of the problem; and (5) a statement that the notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorized to act. We may remove or restrict the listing while we review the notice. We may share the notice with the lister. Repeat or abusive notices may be ignored.

Appearance on the board is not our opinion of a video. We do not verify that listed creators, claims, or results are true. Click and visitor counts describe what our systems recorded; they are not a promise that you will get the same outcome. Your results depend on your rank, your video, timing, and factors we do not control.

Links from the Service to listed videos leave outbid.works. Those destinations have their own terms and practices. We are not responsible for them.

We provide the Service as-is. It may be unavailable, slow, or incorrect. We may change ranking rules, minimums, categories, or these Terms. If a change is material, we will update the date at the top of this page. Continued use after a change means you accept the new Terms. For a payment already completed, the Terms in effect at checkout still apply to that payment, except where a change is required by law or needed to address a security or legal risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors, or that listings, names, images, ranks, or click counts are accurate or complete.

We do not limit liability that applicable law says we cannot limit, including liability for intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body, or health, or liability under mandatory product-liability rules. Subject to that:

• We are not liable for lost profits, lost data, lost goodwill, substitute services, or other indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages.
• For slight negligence, we are liable only for a foreseeable breach of duties that are essential to these Terms, and only for typical, foreseeable damage.
• Our total liability for a claim relating to a payment is limited to the amount you paid us for the listing that the claim concerns in the three months before the claim.

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless [legal name of operator] and people working on the Service from claims, damages, losses, and reasonable legal fees arising out of your listing, your destination video, your payment or chargeback, your breach of these Terms, or your infringement of someone else's rights. We may take over the defense of a claim; you will cooperate.

These Terms are governed by the laws of [governing jurisdiction], excluding conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer with a mandatory local law that cannot be displaced, that law still protects you. If you are not a consumer, the courts at [venue — e.g. our place of business] have exclusive jurisdiction, to the extent permitted.

• If a part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect, and the invalid part is replaced by the valid term that comes closest to the original intent.
• Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a transfer of the Service.
• These Terms, the Rules, the Privacy Policy, and the checkout details you confirm form the entire agreement for the Service.
• Payments, hosting, and analytics involve third parties. Their outages or decisions are outside our control.
