Terms & Conditions

DankRank is a search agency for Google, AI answers, Maps and paid search.

The site provides information about services, methods, research, experiments, tools and operating approach.

DankRank works to keep the site accurate/current, but search changes quickly and some pages intentionally document experiments, baselines or developing evidence.

Content may describe dated observations, hypotheses under evaluation, third-party systems that later change, or results limited to a specific test.

A published observation is not a promise that the same result will occur for another business, market, query or date.

Search engines, advertising platforms and AI systems make their own crawling, retrieval, ranking, citation, recommendation and delivery decisions.

DankRank does not guarantee rankings, traffic, leads, AI citations, recommendations, revenue or any other particular search/business result through this website.

Specific service commitments belong in the applicable client agreement or statement of work.

The free Visibility Baseline is an external review based on information/evidence reasonably available without private account access.

It is not a complete technical audit, legal review, financial review or guarantee of future performance.

DankRank may decline/limit a request where information is incomplete, the request is abusive, the business is outside work DankRank accepts, or fulfilling it creates an unreasonable security/legal/operational issue.

The website discusses search strategy, marketing, technology and measurement.

It is not legal, accounting, tax, investment or other regulated professional advice. Businesses in regulated categories remain responsible for appropriate professional advice and compliance with applicable laws/platform rules.

Unless otherwise stated, the site design, original text, graphics, branding, research presentation, Cultivation OS materials, PROOF materials and other original DankRank content are owned by or licensed to DankRank and protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

You may link to public pages and quote reasonable excerpts for lawful commentary/reporting/research with appropriate attribution.

You may not copy, republish, sell, impersonate, remove attribution from or commercially exploit substantial portions of the site in a way that infringes DankRank's rights.

This does not prohibit ordinary indexing/crawling/machine discovery permitted by published technical controls, robots.txt and applicable law.

Don't use the site to:

• interfere with security/availability
• attempt unauthorized access
• submit malicious code or automated abuse
• impersonate another person/organization
• send unlawful, fraudulent, defamatory or infringing material
• use the site in a way that violates applicable law

DankRank may block/restrict abusive use.

You remain responsible for information submitted through the site.

Don't send passwords, private account credentials, highly sensitive personal information or material you are not authorized to share.

You permit DankRank to use submitted information as reasonably necessary to respond to the request, prepare a requested Visibility Baseline, protect the service and comply with applicable law.

Personal information is handled under the Privacy Policy.

The site may link to/discuss third-party search engines, AI systems, analytics/advertising platforms and software tools.

Those services are controlled by their providers. Availability, features, policies and results may change without notice.

A reference/link does not mean DankRank controls or guarantees the third-party service.

PROOF, research and experimental pages are intended to expose evidence and limitations.

Unless stated otherwise, a result is limited to the test design, observation period and evidence described on that page.

Do not treat an experimental observation as a guarantee, universal benchmark or promise of a client result.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the website/public content are provided on an "as available" basis.

DankRank does not promise that the site will always be uninterrupted, error-free or current at every moment, or that third-party search/AI systems will behave consistently.

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights/obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, DankRank is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss arising solely from use of, inability to use, or reliance on the public website or its free informational content.

This public-website provision does not replace or alter liability provisions in a separate client contract.

Nothing limits liability where applicable law does not permit that limitation.

DankRank may update the site/Terms as services or requirements change. The effective date identifies the current published version.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario, subject to mandatory rights/laws that apply regardless of that choice.

These Terms do not create a mandatory arbitration requirement.
