Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen

1.1 Linkova is a business-to-business (B2B) service. By using it you confirm that you are acting in the course of a trade, business, craft or profession, and not as a consumer.

1.2 These Terms apply to all contracts concluded through linkova.club. Any conflicting or additional terms proposed by you do not apply unless we agree to them in writing.

2.1Linkova operates a marketplace and research platform through which you can discover websites ("Publisher Websites"), review associated metrics, and order the placement of content containing a link to a URL you specify ("Placement").

2.2 Metrics, categories, traffic figures, authority scores and price comparisons shown on the platform are estimates derived from third-party data providers (including but not limited to DataForSEO, Ahrefs, Moz and Majestic data accessed via third parties) and from our own crawling and classification. They are provided for research purposes. We do not warrant their accuracy, completeness or currency, and they may change at any time.

2.3 Prices displayed for third-party marketplaces are indicative comparison data collected at a point in time and may not reflect current third-party pricing.

3.1 Presentation of a Publisher Website on the platform is an invitation to treat and not a binding offer.

3.2 A contract is formed when we confirm your order in writing (including by email or in-platform confirmation), or when we commence performance, whichever occurs first.

3.3 We may refuse or cancel any order at our discretion, including where the target URL, anchor text or content requested is unlawful, infringing, or falls within a category we do not serve.

4.1 You are solely responsible for the target URL, anchor text, keywords, briefs and any materials you supply, and you warrant that they:

• do not infringe any third-party intellectual property, personality or other rights;
• are not unlawful, defamatory, obscene, misleading or deceptive;
• do not relate to content prohibited under clause 4.2; and
• comply with all laws applicable to you.

4.2 Unless expressly agreed in writing, orders must not relate to: illegal goods or services; child sexual abuse material; malware, phishing or fraud; weapons or explosives; counterfeit goods; or any content prohibited by applicable law. Certain regulated niches (including gambling, adult content, cryptocurrency, CBD and pharmaceuticals) are only available where a Publisher Website explicitly accepts them and may be subject to different pricing.

4.3 You will indemnify us against all claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of clauses 4.1 or 4.2.

5.1 We fulfil Placements either by arranging them directly with the operator of the Publisher Website, or via a third-party marketplace or intermediary, at our discretion.

5.2 Delivery timeframes shown on the platform are estimates. Publisher Websites are independent third parties and we do not control their editorial calendars, responsiveness or availability.

5.3A Placement is deemed delivered when we provide you with a live URL where the agreed link is published ("Published URL").

5.4 Where a Publisher Website becomes unavailable, unresponsive or declines an order after purchase, we will offer, at our discretion: (a) an equivalent alternative Publisher Website of comparable metrics; or (b) a refund in accordance with our Refund Policy.

6.1 Unless expressly stated in your order, Placements are provided on a "permanent placement, no guaranteed duration" basis. We will use reasonable efforts to arrange indefinite publication, but we do not own or control Publisher Websites and cannot guarantee that a link will remain live for any particular period.

6.2 If a Placement is removed by the Publisher Website within sixty (60) days of the Published URL being supplied, and the removal is not attributable to you or to your content, we will use reasonable efforts to arrange a replacement Placement of comparable value at no additional cost. This is your sole remedy for link removal.

6.3 We do not guarantee any search engine result, ranking improvement, traffic increase, indexation, revenue effect or other SEO outcome. Search engines operate independently, change their algorithms without notice, and may discount, ignore or penalise any link. You acknowledge that link building carries inherent risk, that search engine guidelines may treat paid links unfavourably, and that you accept this risk.

6.4 We are not liable for any manual action, algorithmic penalty, deindexation or ranking loss affecting your website.

7.1 Prices are displayed on the platform in USD. The price applicable to your order is the price confirmed at checkout.

7.2 Prices are exclusive of applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. Where a payment provider acts as merchant of record, that provider may collect and remit VAT, GST or sales tax. Where reverse charge applies to EU business customers, you are responsible for accounting for VAT in your jurisdiction, and you must supply a valid VAT identification number where required.

7.3 Payment is processed by third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment card details.

7.4 Where a workspace balance or credit is used, it is a prepayment against future orders. Unless required by law, balances are non-transferable.

7.5 We may change prices at any time. Changes do not affect orders already confirmed.

8.1 We retain all rights in the platform, its data compilation, metrics, classifications, software and branding. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership to you.

8.2 You may use platform data for your own internal business purposes. You may not scrape, resell, redistribute, sublicense or build a competing dataset or service from platform data.

8.3 You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, adapt and publish the materials you supply, solely to the extent necessary to fulfil your order.

8.4 Where we or a Publisher Website create content for a Placement, ownership of that content remains with the author or Publisher Website unless otherwise agreed in writing.

9.1 You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity under your account.

9.2 We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may perform maintenance and may modify or discontinue features.

9.3 We may suspend or terminate your account for breach of these Terms, non-payment, or suspected fraudulent or unlawful use.

10.1 Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

10.2 Subject to clause 10.1, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss, nor for loss of profit, revenue, goodwill, anticipated savings, business opportunity, data, or search engine rankings.

10.3 Subject to clause 10.1, our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with a contract shall not exceed the total amount you paid to us for the specific order giving rise to the claim.

10.4 We are not liable for acts or omissions of Publisher Websites, third-party marketplaces, data providers or payment providers.

We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, civil unrest, strikes, failure of telecommunications or internet services, changes in law, changes to search engine algorithms or policies, or the failure of third-party providers.

Each party will keep the other's non-public information confidential and use it only for the purposes of the contract. We will not name you as a customer publicly without your consent.

We may amend these Terms. We will publish the amended version with an updated date and, where the change is material, notify you by email or in-platform notice. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. Amendments do not apply retroactively to orders already confirmed.

14.1 These Terms and any contract formed under them are governed by the laws of India.

14.2 The courts at Palghar, Maharashtra, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction, save that we may bring proceedings to protect our intellectual property in any competent court.

14.3 Nothing in this clause deprives a party of any mandatory protection available to it under the law of its own place of establishment where such protection cannot be excluded by agreement.

15.1 If any provision is held invalid, the remainder continues in force.

15.2 Failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it.

15.3 You may not assign your rights without our written consent. We may assign to an affiliate or in connection with a reorganisation or sale of business.

15.4 These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, constitute the entire agreement between us.
