1. Introduction
DomainAppraisal.co.nz is an independent New Zealand website offering domain appraisal tools, valuation insights, reports, and related digital services. These Terms & Conditions apply to all visitors, users, customers, and account holders who access or use this website.
2. Nature of the Website
This website provides general information, software-assisted estimates, market observations, and domain-related reporting for informational purposes only.
Nothing on this website constitutes legal advice, financial advice, investment advice, brokerage advice, guaranteed valuation advice, or a binding offer to buy, sell, broker, register, transfer, or insure any domain name or digital asset.
3. Eligibility and Accounts
You must ensure that any information you submit to us is accurate, current, and complete. If you create an account, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.
We may refuse registration, restrict access, or close accounts at our discretion where we believe misuse, security risks, unlawful conduct, or breaches of these terms have occurred.
4. Acceptable Use
- You must not use this website for unlawful, fraudulent, misleading, abusive, or harmful purposes.
- You must not attempt to interfere with the website, reverse engineer protected systems, bypass limits, scrape restricted content, or disrupt performance or security.
- You must not submit false data, impersonate others, or use the platform in a way that may expose us or other users to liability or loss.
5. Valuations, Reports and Outputs
Any appraisal, estimate, report, score, range, comparable sale reference, confidence level, or other output generated by this website is an automated or semi-automated opinion only. It is not guaranteed to be accurate, complete, current, suitable for your purpose, or accepted by any buyer, seller, registrar, broker, financier, accountant, court, insurer, or tax authority.
You are solely responsible for assessing whether any output is suitable for your circumstances and for obtaining independent professional advice before relying on it for any commercial, investment, legal, tax, or business decision.
6. Payments, Credits and Refunds
Paid features may be offered through credits, packages, subscriptions, or one-off purchases. Unless we state otherwise in writing, credits are non-transferable, have no cash value, and are not redeemable for cash.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, all fees are non-refundable once a credit is issued, a valuation is generated, or access to the relevant paid feature has been provided.
7. Intellectual Property
All website content, branding, software logic, layout, scoring methods, text, graphics, databases, and report designs on this website are owned by or licensed to us unless stated otherwise. You may not copy, reproduce, resell, republish, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit any part of this website without our prior written permission.
8. Third-Party Data, Links and Services
This website may rely on or refer to third-party data sources, APIs, comparables, registrars, payment gateways, analytics tools, or external websites. We do not control those third parties and do not guarantee the availability, accuracy, completeness, legality, or continued operation of any third-party content or service.
Your use of third-party websites or services is entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and policies of those third parties.
9. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by New Zealand law, this website and all services, tools, reports, data, and content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties, guarantees, representations, or conditions of any kind, whether express or implied.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all liability for any loss, damage, cost, claim, expense, liability, or proceeding of any kind arising directly or indirectly from or in connection with your use of, inability to use, reliance on, or misuse of this website or any output generated by it. This exclusion applies whether the alleged liability arises in contract, tort including negligence, equity, statute, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation, or otherwise.
Without limiting the above, we are not liable for any indirect, consequential, special, incidental, exemplary, or punitive loss, or for any loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, loss of savings, loss of goodwill, loss of business, loss of data, business interruption, delay, or wasted expenditure.
Where liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, our total aggregate liability to you is limited to the lesser of (a) the total amount actually paid by you to us for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the 3 months immediately before the event, or (b) NZD $100. If you used the relevant service free of charge, our total liability is limited to NZD $0 to the extent permitted by law.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless DomainAppraisal.co.nz, its owners, operators, licensors, contractors, and service providers from and against any claim, loss, liability, damage, cost, or expense, including reasonable legal costs, arising out of or connected with your use of the website, your breach of these terms, your misuse of any output, your infringement of any rights, or any data or content you submit.
11. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access to all or any part of the website at any time, with or without notice, for maintenance, upgrades, abuse prevention, security concerns, legal reasons, payment issues, or breach of these terms. We are not liable for any resulting unavailability, delay, loss of access, or deletion of data.
12. New Zealand Law and Business Use
These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand, and any dispute is subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand.
If you are acquiring or using the website, any service, or any output for the purposes of a business, then to the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree that the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and sections of the Fair Trading Act 1986 that can lawfully be contracted out of between parties in trade will not apply where the statutory requirements for contracting out are satisfied.
If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or unlawful, that provision is to be read down or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force.
