Welcome to WebTools.directory. These terms explain how you can use the site. By using it, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Who we are
WebTools.directory (https://webtools.directory) is a curated directory of free and low-cost software deals for self-funded founders and side hustlers. It is run by Darren Waring, trading as WebTools Directory, in the United Kingdom. In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean WebTools Directory, and "you" means anyone using the site.
Using the site
The site is free to use. There are no accounts and we do not take payments on the site. You are welcome to browse and share links to our pages.
When using the site, please do not:
- use it for anything unlawful or misleading
- try to disrupt, damage or gain unauthorised access to the site or the systems it runs on
- copy large parts of the site, or scrape it in bulk, to republish it as your own directory
We may change, pause or remove any part of the site at any time, and we do not promise that it will always be available or free from errors.
Accuracy and no warranty
We try to keep listings up to date, and each one shows an "Updated" date. However, the deals we list belong to third-party vendors. Prices, discounts and terms are set by the vendor and can change or end at any time, sometimes without notice.
So the information on the site is provided "as is", for general information only. We do not guarantee that it is complete, accurate or current, and nothing on the site is professional, financial or legal advice. Please check the price, terms and suitability of a product on the vendor's own site before you buy.
Third-party sites
The site links out to vendors and other third-party websites. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, products, prices, privacy practices or availability. Any purchase you make is between you and the vendor, on the vendor's terms.
Affiliate links
Some of the deal links on WebTools.directory are affiliate links. If you follow one and buy something, the seller may pay us a commission. You pay the same price either way: an affiliate link never costs you anything extra.
These commissions help keep WebTools.directory free to use and running.
Affiliate status never decides whether a tool is listed, or whether it is picked as an Editor's choice. We list and pick tools because we think they are useful, whether or not there is an affiliate link.
Deals with an affiliate link carry a small heart icon. Hover over it, or tap it on a phone, to see a short note saying so.
Prices, discounts and deal terms are set by the seller, not by us, and they can change or end at any time. Please check the price and terms on the seller's site before you buy.
Submitting a deal
You can tell us about a deal using the "Submit a deal" form. When you send us a submission:
- please make sure the information is accurate and that you are allowed to share it
- do not include anything unlawful, misleading or confidential
- you give us permission to use, edit and publish the information on the site, free of charge
We are not obliged to publish submissions, and we may edit or remove any listing at any time. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle any personal details you include.
Our liability
We provide the site free of charge, so our liability is limited as far as the law allows. In particular, we are not liable for:
- any loss or damage caused by relying on information on the site
- anything to do with a vendor's product, service, price or terms, or any purchase you make from a vendor
- the content or availability of any third-party site we link to
- any loss of profit, revenue, business, data or opportunity, or any indirect loss
- the site being unavailable, or any bugs or viruses we could not reasonably prevent
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot be limited or excluded under the law of England and Wales. If you use the site as a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your legal rights.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If you keep using the site after an update, the new terms apply.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Any dispute about them or the site will be dealt with by the courts of England and Wales, although if you live elsewhere in the UK you may also be able to bring a claim in your local courts.
