Terms & Conditions

Acceptance of these terms

Digital Business Marketing (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates digitalbusinessmarketing.com (the “site”). By accessing the site you accept these terms in full. If you do not agree with any part of them, please do not use the site.

Editorial content is information, not advice

Everything we publish — guides, reviews, Award citations, and newsletter issues — is general information about digital marketing. It is not professional, legal, financial, or tax advice, and it is not tailored to your business. Results described in an article are not a promise of the results you will get. Always exercise your own judgement, and consult a qualified professional before making decisions that carry real risk.

Editorial independence

We accept sponsorships and use affiliate links, but they never buy a verdict. Reviews and Award winners are decided on merit, and commercial relationships are labelled where they exist. If you believe we got something wrong, email us and we will correct the record.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This revenue funds our writing. It does not influence which tools we recommend or how we rank them. See our Privacy Policy for how affiliate tracking handles your data.

Advertising

The site displays third-party advertising, including via Google AdSense. We do not control and are not responsible for the content of ads or the products and services they promote. Any dealings you have with an advertiser are solely between you and that advertiser.

Intellectual property

All content on the site — text, editorial imagery, the Digital Business Marketing name, the Awards branding, and the site design — is owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright and trade mark law. You may read, share, and quote short extracts with clear attribution and a link back to the original page. You may not republish articles in whole, resell our content, or use it to train or fine-tune commercial machine learning models without our written permission.

Third-party names and links

Product names, logos, and brands referenced on the site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only. Our links to external sites are provided for convenience; we do not endorse and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Use the site for any unlawful purpose or in breach of these terms.
Scrape, crawl, or bulk-download the site in a way that degrades performance for other readers.
Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its infrastructure, or any connected system.
Introduce malware, or interfere with the site's normal operation or security.
Misrepresent an affiliation with us, or imply an Award, endorsement, or rating we have not given.

The Awards

The Digital Business Marketing Awards are our editorial opinion, based on the criteria and sources published alongside each edition. Winners may reference their award with an accurate description of the category and year. Nothing about an award creates a partnership, endorsement of unrelated claims, or any warranty about the winner's products.

Subscribing is voluntary and you can unsubscribe from any issue using the link in the email. We may discontinue or change the newsletter at any time.

Availability

We aim to keep the site available and accurate, but we provide it “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or uninterrupted access. Content may become out of date as tools and platforms change.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special loss — including lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption — arising out of your use of, or inability to use, the site or anything you read on it. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Changes to the site and these terms

We may add, change, or remove content and features at any time, and we may revise these terms as the site or the law changes. The revision date at the top reflects the current version; continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which we are established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and without removing any mandatory consumer protections you enjoy where you live.
