Important: These Terms govern use of the BizMarket Pro website, BizMarket Pro app, BizValuator Pro app, related mobile and web services, reports, subscriptions, marketplace tools, and future products that expressly link to these Terms. They do not by themselves create a brokerage, appraisal, lending, legal, tax, accounting, investment-advisory, fiduciary, or other professional relationship.
1. Acceptance of These Terms
By downloading, installing, accessing, creating an account for, purchasing through, or using any BizMarket Pro service, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the services.
If you use the services for a company, brokerage, advisory firm, or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization. “You” includes both you and that organization.
2. Eligibility, Authority, and Accounts
You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering a binding contract. The services are intended for business and professional use and are not directed to children.
You must provide accurate, current information, keep your credentials secure, and promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity occurring through your account unless caused by our failure to use reasonable security.
Accounts may not be sold, transferred, shared outside an authorized team, or used to impersonate another person or business. We may require identity, ownership, licensing, or authority verification before enabling certain marketplace, broker, payment, document, or professional-service functions.
3. Services Covered
The services may include:
- business-value estimation tools, questionnaires, reports, benchmarks, educational content, and AI-assisted observations through BizValuator Pro;
- business-for-sale listings, buyer discovery, saved searches, messaging, document exchange, analytics, lead tools, and transaction workflow features through BizMarket Pro;
- subscription tiers, add-ons, featured placement, document templates, advisor-support options, and other paid functionality;
- links or introductions to brokerage, valuation, financing, marketing, technology, and other professional services; and
- future applications and services that expressly adopt these Terms.
Features may vary by device, subscription, geography, app-store rules, availability, and product stage. We may modify or discontinue features, but we will not retroactively take away a paid fixed-term benefit without providing a reasonable substitute, credit, or refund where required by law.
4. BizValuator Pro Estimates and Reports
BizValuator Pro provides automated, model-based estimates using information supplied by users, selected industry data, valuation assumptions, and multiple methodologies. Outputs may include revenue multiples, earnings multiples, asset-based approaches, discounted cash-flow calculations, market-cap or comparable-company approaches, ranges, confidence indicators, and AI-assisted observations.
Valuation outputs are estimates only. They are not certified appraisals, fairness opinions, business appraisals prepared under professional standards, audited financial analyses, broker price opinions, legal opinions, tax opinions, investment recommendations, lending commitments, or guarantees of a sale price.
Actual value can differ materially because of incomplete or inaccurate inputs, add-backs, normalization, customer concentration, owner dependence, marketability, risk, working capital, debt, real estate, intellectual property, contracts, litigation, taxes, economic conditions, buyer synergies, deal structure, and other factors.
You are responsible for reviewing inputs and outputs. Do not rely on an app estimate as the sole basis for a sale, purchase, loan, investment, tax filing, estate plan, litigation position, shareholder dispute, or other material decision. Obtain qualified professional advice where appropriate.
5. BizMarket Pro Marketplace and Listings
5.1 User responsibility
Sellers, brokers, buyers, and other users are responsible for the accuracy, completeness, authorization, legality, and timely updating of listings, buyer profiles, messages, financial information, photographs, documents, claims, and representations.
5.2 No verification guarantee
We may review, moderate, verify, reject, remove, or label content, but we do not guarantee the identity, authority, creditworthiness, licensing, intentions, financial capacity, accuracy, or conduct of any user or the truth of any listing.
5.3 No transaction guarantee
We do not guarantee inquiries, buyers, sellers, financing, confidentiality, price, closing, timing, or transaction success. Users must conduct independent due diligence and use appropriate legal, tax, accounting, appraisal, financing, insurance, and other advisors.
5.4 Listing authorization
By submitting a listing, you represent that you own the business or have written authorization to market it and that publication will not violate any agreement, law, confidentiality duty, franchise rule, employment obligation, intellectual-property right, or third-party right.
5.5 Marketplace communications
Messages may be monitored or reviewed for fraud prevention, support, policy enforcement, and safety, subject to the Privacy Policy. Users may not scrape contact information, spam users, bypass platform protections, or use marketplace data for unrelated solicitation.
6. Professional Services and Axis Business Advisors
BizMarket Pro is a separate technology and app ecosystem. Axis Business Advisors is the licensed brokerage affiliated with and supporting the platform when a user affirmatively requests brokerage, valuation, financing, transaction, or related professional assistance.
Using an app, receiving an automated valuation, viewing a listing, submitting a lead form, or exchanging a preliminary message does not by itself create a brokerage, agency, fiduciary, appraisal, lending, consulting, or professional-client relationship.
Any professional relationship must be established through a separate written agreement accepted by the relevant parties. That agreement may contain additional disclosures, compensation terms, agency duties, conflicts provisions, licensing information, and dispute terms. If a separate agreement conflicts with these Terms regarding professional services, the separate agreement controls for those services.
7. Subscriptions, In-App Purchases, and Payments
Paid plans may renew automatically unless canceled before the renewal date. Prices, billing periods, trials, included features, and renewal terms are displayed at purchase.
Purchases made through Apple are billed and administered by Apple under the applicable App Store terms. Purchases made through Google Play are billed and administered by Google under its terms. Cancellation, refund, payment-method, and subscription-management requests for app-store purchases generally must be handled through the applicable store account.
Deleting an account or uninstalling an app does not automatically cancel a subscription. You must cancel through the applicable billing provider. Except where required by law or expressly stated, fees are nonrefundable and partial periods are not prorated.
We may change future pricing or benefits upon advance notice required by the billing provider or law. Changes ordinarily apply at the next renewal.
8. User Content and Permission to Operate the Services
You retain ownership of content you lawfully submit. You grant us a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, display, transmit, analyze, and otherwise use that content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, improve, and provide the services; fulfill your requests; enforce these Terms; and comply with law.
For public or marketplace listings, the license includes displaying and promoting the listing within the services and through authorized marketing channels until the listing is removed or expires. You may withdraw this license by removing content, subject to backups, legal retention, completed transactions, and previously authorized uses.
You represent that you possess all rights and permissions necessary for submitted content and that it does not infringe privacy, publicity, confidentiality, contract, copyright, trademark, trade-secret, or other rights.
9. Confidential Information, NDAs, CIMs, and Documents
The services may facilitate confidentiality agreements, nondisclosure workflows, confidential information memoranda, financial files, tax records, buyer profiles, proof-of-funds records, and other sensitive documents.
Platform tools do not replace legal review. Template documents are general starting points and may not be suitable for a particular transaction or jurisdiction. You are responsible for determining whether an NDA or other agreement is valid, signed by authorized parties, sufficiently protective, and enforceable.
You must maintain appropriate confidentiality and may use another party’s confidential information only for the authorized transaction purpose. We are not a party to user-to-user NDAs unless expressly stated in writing.
10. Acceptable Use
You may not:
- submit false, misleading, fraudulent, unauthorized, defamatory, discriminatory, infringing, or unlawful content;
- pose as an owner, broker, buyer, lender, advisor, or representative without authority;
- circumvent subscriptions, access controls, document permissions, messaging protections, or usage limits;
- scrape, harvest, copy, resell, republish, or build a competing database from service content;
- reverse engineer, decompile, probe, disrupt, overload, or introduce malicious code;
- use automated systems except through an authorized API or written permission;
- use the services for unlawful lending, securities activity, money laundering, sanctions evasion, discrimination, harassment, or fraud;
- upload highly sensitive personal information that is unnecessary for the requested function; or
- use app outputs to make fully automated decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects on another person without appropriate review and lawful authority.
11. AI-Assisted Features
Some features may generate or summarize content using artificial intelligence or automated models. AI output may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, repetitive, or unsuitable. You must review it before use.
Do not submit confidential information, personal information, trade secrets, or regulated data to an AI feature unless the interface clearly permits it and you have authority to do so. AI output does not constitute professional advice and should not be represented as independently verified.
12. Third-Party Services and Links
The services may rely on app stores, subscription processors, cloud hosting, analytics, authentication, communications, mapping, document, AI, customer-support, and other providers. Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy practices.
Links to external websites, professionals, lenders, buyers, sellers, brokers, or vendors are provided for convenience and do not constitute a guarantee or endorsement. We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, security, products, decisions, or conduct.
13. BizMarket Pro Intellectual Property
The services, software, design, interface, databases, workflows, trademarks, logos, text, graphics, reports, models, and other materials provided by us are owned by or licensed to BizMarket Pro and are protected by law.
Subject to these Terms and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use the services for lawful personal or internal business purposes. No ownership rights are transferred.
Feedback may be used without restriction or compensation, provided we do not publicly identify you as its source without permission.
14. Suspension, Removal, and Termination
You may stop using the services and request account deletion at any time. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access, remove content, or cancel a listing when reasonably necessary to address nonpayment, fraud, security threats, legal risk, policy violations, abuse, intellectual-property claims, or harm to users or the platform.
Where practical, we will provide notice and an opportunity to cure. Immediate action may be taken for fraud, security, illegality, or substantial harm.
Provisions concerning ownership, payment obligations, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability, indemnification, disputes, and required retention survive termination.
15. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” WE DISCLAIM IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR TRANSACTION, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. THESE DISCLAIMERS DO NOT LIMIT NONWAIVABLE CONSUMER RIGHTS.
16. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BIZMARKET PRO, ITS AFFILIATES, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND THEIR OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OPPORTUNITY, OR BUSINESS VALUE; OR FAILED OR DELAYED TRANSACTIONS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING FROM THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE AFFECTED SERVICE DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) $100.
These limits do not apply where prohibited, including liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
17. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BizMarket Pro and its affiliates from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable legal fees arising from your content, listings, transactions, misuse of the services, violation of these Terms, or infringement of another’s rights. This does not apply to the extent caused by our negligence, willful misconduct, or violation of law.
18. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by California law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Before filing a claim, the parties agree to send written notice describing the dispute and attempt in good faith to resolve it for at least 30 days.
Unless a separate professional-services agreement states otherwise, disputes that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction there.
You may bring an eligible matter in small-claims court. Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived. These Terms do not presently require mandatory arbitration.
19. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect product changes, legal requirements, security practices, or business operations. We will post the revised Terms and update the effective date. Material changes may be communicated through the app, website, email, or account notice. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.
