Terms of service

1. Who we are

Stackreferee is operated by Accely B.V., registered in the Netherlands (KVK 99442728), Pastoor Van Beugenstraat 17, 5061 CR Oisterwijk, The Netherlands. By using this website you agree to these terms.

2. What this site is

We publish independent software comparisons. Our research process, verification dates and sourcing rules are described in our editorial policy; how we earn money is described on how we make money. Two principles are part of these terms because vendors and readers rely on them: sponsored placements are always visibly labeled, and editorial opinions, rankings and scores cannot be bought.

3. Accuracy and your own judgment

We verify claims against primary sources and show verification dates, but software, prices and terms change constantly. Content on this site is provided for general information only; it is not advice, and we do not guarantee that it is complete, current or error-free at the moment you read it. Always verify critical details (pricing, compliance, features) with the vendor before you buy. If you spot an error, please report a correction; we re-verify and either fix the article or explain why we stand by it.

4. Comments

You may post comments where offered. You are responsible for what you post. Do not post anything unlawful, defamatory, misleading (including fake reviews or undisclosed vendor promotion), infringing, or spam. By posting you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to display your comment on this site. We may edit for formatting or remove comments that violate these rules, without notice. If you want a comment of yours removed, contact us via the details in our privacy policy.

5. Vendor services

Paid options for vendors (sponsored inclusion, profile upgrades) are described on the For vendors page. For all paid services: placements are labeled, editorial treatment (including pros and cons) is identical to unpaid coverage, paid inclusions are capped per article, relevance is assessed editorially before acceptance, and editorial mentions are never removed for not paying. Specific commercial terms are agreed per engagement in writing before any payment.

6. Intellectual property

The content of this site (articles, comparison data, infographics, design) is owned by Accely B.V. or its licensors. You may quote brief excerpts with attribution and a link to the source article. Product names and logos of the software we cover belong to their respective owners; their appearance here does not imply endorsement in either direction.

7. Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Accely B.V. is not liable for damages arising from the use of this site or from decisions based on its content, except in cases of intent or gross negligence. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

8. Changes

We may update these terms; the date above reflects the latest version. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated terms.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by Dutch law. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in the Netherlands, unless mandatory consumer law provides otherwise.
