You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose during the term of your subscription.
You retain full ownership of any content (website data, descriptions, logos) that you submit through the Service. By submitting content, you grant us a limited license to use it solely for the purpose of providing the Service (i.e., submitting it to directories on your behalf).
8. Service Availability and Modifications
We strive to maintain high uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature of the Service at any time. If we discontinue a feature material to your use, we will provide reasonable advance notice.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that: (a) the Service will meet your specific requirements; (b) the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; (c) the results obtained from the Service will be accurate or reliable; or (d) any specific SEO outcomes, search engine rankings, or domain authority increases will be achieved.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BACKLYNK SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION OR THE THEORY OF LIABILITY.
Our total aggregate liability for all claims related to the Service shall not exceed the total amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim. This limitation applies regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Backlynk and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any rights of a third party; or (d) any content you submit through the Service.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Your submission data will be retained for 30 days after account deletion to allow for data export, after which it will be permanently deleted.
13. Dispute Resolution
Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiation. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally within 30 days, either party may pursue formal resolution. You agree to attempt mediation before pursuing litigation.
