2. General Eligibility and Legal Compliance

By accessing and using Searqle, you confirm and agree that:

• You are at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction.
• You have full legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
• You are using the Services for lawful purposes only and in compliance with all applicable laws.

Searqle operates globally but is primarily designed for informational use. Users outside the European Union may be subject to different data privacy laws. You are solely responsible for ensuring that using the Services is permitted under the laws of your jurisdiction.

Not A Consumer Reporting Agency

Searqle is not a consumer reporting agency (CRA) as defined under the U.S. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq. Therefore:

• The data provided is not intended for employment, tenant screening, insurance, credit, or other regulated purposes.
• You may not use Searqle for adverse decisions about any individual.
• Using the data for any FCRA-restricted purpose is a violation of these Terms and may also be illegal, carrying potential civil or criminal liability.

Prohibited FCRA-related uses include, but are not limited to:

• Evaluating someone for a job, promotion, or termination;
• Screening potential tenants for rental housing;
• Determining insurance eligibility or premiums;
• Assessing creditworthiness, loans, or other financial decisions;
• Any legal or government determination affecting someone's rights or benefits.

If you misuse the Services in violation of these Terms, your account may be suspended or permanently terminated without notice, and we may report such misuse to law enforcement if required.

Permissible Personal Uses

You may use Searqle Services for legitimate, personal, informational and non-commercial purposes, such as:

• Identifying unknown numbers (missed calls, suspected spam/scam);
• Verifying a seller/buyer identity in marketplace transactions;
• Reconnecting with friends, family, or classmates;
• Screening online dating contacts (anti-catfishing);
• Checking for possible fraud risks before engaging in personal transactions.

You are solely responsible for how you use the data obtained.

Service Limitations

You acknowledge and agree that the information provided through Searqle may sometimes be incomplete, outdated, or unavailable due to the nature of public and licensed data sources. We do not guarantee that every query will return results, as the availability of information varies depending on the individual record and region. In some cases, data may only be accessible in specific locations due to privacy regulations and data protection laws, which can limit the scope of reports. All services are provided strictly on an “as is“ basis, without any warranties regarding their accuracy, reliability, or suitability for any particular purpose.

3. Services

Searqle provides consumer information lookup services that help users verify identities, protect themselves from scams, and reconnect with people. These services make it easier to identify unknown phone numbers, check emails or phone details before engaging in marketplace transactions, reconnect with old classmates, family members, or acquaintances, and screen online dating contacts to avoid catfishing or fraudulent identities.

The platform offers reverse phone lookup, which can retrieve details associated with a phone number, including, but not limited to, possible owner name, carrier details, location history, spam risk indicators, and, where available, information about employment or education. It also provides reverse email lookup, which may reveal linked social media profiles, potential owner information, associated phone numbers, breach or leak history, and in some cases, work or education details.

Searqle may offer an Image Lookup feature that allows Users to upload an image containing a human face in order to search for potentially related publicly available or licensed information. Results are generated through third-party technology providers and external data sources. By uploading any image, you represent and warrant that you have a valid and lawful basis under applicable law to use and submit the image for this purpose and that your use does not violate privacy, publicity, data protection, or other rights of any third party. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your upload and use of Image Lookup is lawful in your jurisdiction. You must not use Image Lookup for harassment, stalking, intimidation, discrimination, unlawful surveillance, or any other prohibited purpose.

Not all data will be available for every lookup. The information shown depends entirely on public and licensed sources, so in some cases only partial data may be returned—or none at all.

Identity verification reports aggregate both publicly available and licensed data to validate someone's claimed identity. Users may also enhance reports with optional add-ons, including:

• detailed data breach and leak reports,
• downloadable PDF reports,
• U.S.-specific sex offender registry checks.

Certain add-ons, including downloadable PDF reports and extended breach or leak reports, may in some cases include additional lookup Credits (for example, +3 Credits). The availability of such additional Credits may vary depending on region, currency, promotional campaigns, testing initiatives, or special offers, and will be shown at checkout at the time of purchase.

The data compiled in these reports comes from two main types of sources. The first is publicly available information, also known as Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), which includes public registries, directories, spam or scam reporting databases, social media profiles, online forums, news articles, and other public mentions. The second type is licensed data from third-party suppliers that provide identity-related details under agreements that comply with U.S. law. Searqle does not access private communications, confidential databases, or any government-restricted records.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the services complies with the laws and regulations applicable in your jurisdiction.

Intended Use

Searqle is intended strictly for personal and informational use. It is not designed for making employment, credit, insurance, or tenancy decisions, nor for conducting background checks for regulated purposes. The platform must not be used in ways that would violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) or similar laws. By using the Services, you agree to use the information responsibly and in full compliance with applicable legal requirements.

Lookup Reports and Their Content

A lookup report may contain:

• basic identity details linked to the queried phone number or email address;
• general location information such as city and state (never precise GPS tracking);
• publicly visible social media and online profiles;
• possible related contacts or family associations;
• spam or scam risk indicators based on user reports and third-party databases;
• historical data about past owners;
• carrier and service information such as whether it is a mobile, VoIP, or landline;
• breach alerts if the data appeared in known leaks;
• where available, information about a person's employment or education.

Not every lookup report will contain all of these data points. Results depend entirely on the availability and accuracy of the sources. Some jurisdictions impose restrictions on the type of data that can legally be accessed, which can affect report completeness. There is no guarantee that every lookup will yield meaningful results. Credits are deducted per lookup request, even if the report contains little or no data.

After completing a Phone Lookup or Email Lookup, Users may be offered optional Deep Search modules designed to supplement an existing report with additional data. Deep Search modules are independent from one another and are charged separately.

Deep Search by Name allows a User to run an additional search using a selected name associated with the report. This feature is available only for U.S.-related data. Each selected name search costs one (1) Credit. Deep Search by Username allows a User to run an additional search using a selected username associated with the report. This feature is available globally. Each selected username search costs one (1) Credit.

The Platform may display indicators such as “exact match“ or “possible match“ for informational purposes only. These indicators are automated and do not constitute confirmation of identity or factual accuracy.

Account Creation and Access

To access most of Searqle's services, you must create a user account. Only an email address is required to create an account. You may optionally provide your name, which will be displayed as your account name. Access to your account will be provided via a secure login link sent to your email, with no password required.

Subscription Plans, Trial and Payment Structure

Searqle offers subscription-based access as well as additional credit packages and optional add-on features.

We may offer one-time Credit bundles of various sizes as displayed on the Website at the time of purchase. Such bundles are subject to availability, regional differences, and promotional conditions.

A seven-day paid trial may be offered. Trial pricing may vary by region and promotional offer. For example, the trial price is typically USD 1.00 in most regions and may be USD 2.90 in the United States, as displayed at checkout.

Trial payments are non-refundable, except where a refund is required by applicable law. Full payment must be completed before trial access is granted. After the trial period expires, it automatically converts into a recurring subscription unless canceled in accordance with these Terms.

Subscription periods include a seven-day trial, a weekly subscription, and a monthly subscription, where one month equals twenty-eight days. Each subscription provides a bundle of lookup credits per billing cycle. Unused credits roll over into the next period.

During an active subscription, you can buy additional credit packages of ten, twenty-five, or fifty credits. These extra credits remain available even after your subscription ends. Optional add-on features, such as PDF downloads, extended data breach and leak reports, and U.S. sex offender registry checks, are available only during an active subscription.

Pricing for subscriptions, trials, credit bundles, add-ons, and upsell features may vary based on region, currency, payment method, marketing promotions, testing initiatives, and special offers. The final price is always the price displayed on the checkout page at the time of purchase and authorization.

Subscription Auto-Renewal and Cancellation

All subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle. If you do not wish to continue, you must cancel at least twenty-four hours before the renewal date to avoid being charged for the next cycle. Cancellation can be completed in the Help Center via the dedicated cancellation flow. Forgetting to cancel before the renewal date is not a valid reason for a refund, as all recurring billing terms are clearly disclosed.

Billing and Pricing

Prices are displayed in euros and U.S. dollars. Prices include applicable taxes (such as VAT or sales tax). Where applicable, such taxes will be calculated and displayed separately before you complete your purchase. Charges are processed in your selected currency, but your bank may apply currency conversion rates. Payments are securely handled via major credit and debit cards through trusted gateways. It is your responsibility to maintain a valid payment method to ensure uninterrupted service.

The most current pricing and detailed information about available subscription plans, credit packages, and optional add-ons are always displayed on our website. Subscription durations and prices are subject to change at any time, and any such updates will be clearly communicated on the website.

Refund Policy

You may request a refund within fourteen days of your initial payment if you are not satisfied with the service. However, eligibility for a refund depends on whether you have actively used any lookup credits during that period. If you have performed lookups during the trial or subscription, refunds may not be issued. More detailed information about refund eligibility and the refund request process is available in our full Refund Policy.

Accuracy and Limitations

While we make every effort to provide accurate and up-to-date information, data is collected from third-party sources that may sometimes be outdated, incomplete, or inaccurate. In some cases, results may include information linked to multiple individuals with similar names or contact details, which may require you to interpret the data carefully. Some jurisdictions also impose restrictions on the type of data that can legally be accessed, which can affect report completeness.

There is no guarantee that every lookup will yield meaningful results, and Searqle does not manually verify each data point. By using the service, you acknowledge and accept these inherent limitations.

Legal Use Only

You must use Searqle strictly for lawful purposes. It is forbidden to use lookup results to harass, stalk, defame, or discriminate against anyone, or to engage in spam campaigns, fraud, or other illegal activities. Violating privacy, data protection, or anti-harassment laws is strictly prohibited. Any misuse may lead to immediate termination of your account, reporting to appropriate authorities, and potential legal consequences.

4. Security

Commitment to Data Security

At Searqle, we prioritize the protection and confidentiality of the information you share with us. We use encrypted HTTPS/TLS connections for all data transmissions, rely on secure PCI DSS–compliant payment processors, and implement strict access control mechanisms to prevent unauthorized internal or external access. Regular security audits and vulnerability scans are conducted to help identify and mitigate potential risks.

However, no system can be entirely immune from security threats. By using our services, you acknowledge and accept the inherent risks of transmitting data online and understand that absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

Payment Information Security

All payment transactions are processed exclusively through trusted third-party payment gateways that comply with the highest industry standards for data protection. Searqle does not store your complete credit or debit card details. We rely on tokenized payment methods provided by secure processors. While we take all reasonable precautions, we are not responsible for breaches that may occur within third-party payment platforms beyond our control. For more details, please review our Privacy Policy.

Data Retention and Storage

We retain your account information, including your name, email address, and subscription history, for as long as your account remains active. Lookup logs may be kept in anonymized form for fraud prevention and legal compliance. Payment transaction records are stored only for the minimum period required under applicable financial and tax regulations. If you request account deletion, we will erase or anonymize your personal data unless retention is required by law or for legitimate regulatory obligations.

Third-Party Integrations

Searqle may integrate with trusted third-party tools and services, such as analytics platforms or licensed data suppliers. While we carefully select and review these vendors, we cannot fully control their security practices. By using our platform, you acknowledge that interactions with third-party services are governed by their own privacy policies, and Searqle cannot be held responsible for any security breaches or data misuse originating from external systems.

Incident Response and Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will investigate promptly and take all necessary measures to mitigate any damage. If legally required, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities within the timeframes mandated by applicable data protection laws.

No Absolute Guarantee of Security

While we strive to maintain the highest security standards, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to bypass our safeguards or misuse your data. By using Searqle, you acknowledge and accept this limitation.

5. End User License Conditions

Scope of the License

Searqle grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to access and use the Platform solely for lawful, personal, and informational purposes. This license does not transfer ownership of any part of the software, databases, reports, or any other intellectual property. It remains valid only for the duration of your active subscription or access plan and may be terminated at any time if you violate these Terms. All rights, title, and interest in Searqle, including its technology, data, and compiled reports, remain the exclusive property of the Company and its licensors.

Permitted Use

You may use the Services strictly for your own personal, informational and non-commercial purpose. The Platform is intended to help you verify unknown contacts, reduce the risk of scams, and reconnect with people lawfully. You may view, access, and, where available, download reports only for personal use. It is your responsibility to ensure that your use of Searqle complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

Prohibited Use

You are strictly prohibited from misusing the Services in any way that violates applicable law. This includes, but is not limited to, breaching anti-spam regulations, data protection laws, or any consumer reporting legislation. The reports you obtain cannot be used to make decisions about employment, housing, credit, insurance, or any other purpose covered under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) or similar regulations. You may not exploit or resell any data from Searqle, create competing databases, publish reports, or extract data for marketing or spamming. Attempts to reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise tamper with the platform's technology are also forbidden, as is any effort to circumvent subscription limits or payment systems. Furthermore, you may not search for or track individuals in regions where Searqle's services are restricted or illegal.

FCRA and Legal Use Disclaimer

Searqle is not a Consumer Reporting Agency as defined under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681). The reports generated through the Platform cannot be used to evaluate a person's creditworthiness, insurance risk, employment eligibility, or any similar purpose classified as a permissible purpose under the FCRA. The information we provide is aggregated from publicly available sources and licensed third-party data suppliers, and we do not guarantee its accuracy or completeness. You are solely responsible for how you use the data obtained, and any prohibited use may result in immediate suspension of your account, permanent bans, and possible legal action.

Data Source Limitations

The data you receive through Searqle may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate because it relies on publicly available records and external data suppliers. In some cases, a lookup may return no results at all. The availability and completeness of information may also vary by jurisdiction due to regional privacy laws. Searqle does not manually verify each record, and therefore no guarantees can be made regarding the reliability or relevance of any specific report. By using the Platform, you acknowledge these limitations and agree that the Company cannot be held responsible for any decisions you make based on the information provided.

Modifications and Updates

We may periodically release updates, improvements, or new features to enhance the Services. These updates may include bug fixes, security patches, interface changes, or alterations to the subscription structure and pricing models. All modifications remain subject to the same license terms and do not grant you any additional ownership or intellectual property rights.

Termination of License

Your license to use Searqle will automatically end if your subscription expires or is canceled, or if you breach any part of these Terms. Upon termination, your access to the Platform will be revoked, and any unused lookup credits will be forfeited without refund. You must also delete any downloaded reports or data obtained from Searqle. We reserve the right to suspend or block your account without prior notice if fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activities are detected. In such cases, we may cooperate with law enforcement authorities if required.

6. Intellectual Property

Ownership of the Platform

All rights, title, and interest in and to Searqle, including the Platform's software, code, algorithms, databases compiled from public and licensed sources, user interface, visual identity, generated reports, and proprietary methodologies for aggregating and presenting data, are and shall remain the exclusive property of Outlimit Inc. or its authorized licensors. Using Searqle does not grant you any ownership rights or intellectual property interest in the platform, its data, or its brand.

Trademarks & Branding

“Searqle“, the Searqle logo, and any other branding, slogans, or marks displayed on the Platform belong to the Company or its authorized licensors. You are not authorized to use, reproduce, or display the Company's trademarks for any purpose without prior written consent. Any unauthorized use of our branding or attempts to create confusingly similar marks may result in legal action under applicable trademark laws and international intellectual property treaties.

Copyright and Content Protection

All text, graphics, layouts, downloadable reports, and other content available on Searqle are protected by copyright laws and international treaties. You may access and view the content solely for your personal use in connection with your subscription. Copying, distributing, modifying, publishing, or creating derivative works from any Searqle content without explicit written permission is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, reproducing report templates, aggregating data to create a competing database, mirroring or framing the platform on another website, or extracting portions of the platform for resale or redistribution.

User-Generated Content

If you provide feedback, suggestions, testimonials, or any other content to Searqle, you grant the Company a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, display, reproduce, and distribute that content for marketing or operational purposes. You confirm that such content does not infringe third-party rights and agree to indemnify the Company from any related claims.

Licensed Data and Third-Party Sources

Searqle integrates data obtained from licensed third-party suppliers and publicly available sources. The ownership of licensed data remains with the original data providers, and you must respect any usage restrictions imposed by those suppliers. You are not permitted to extract, resell, or redistribute data obtained through Searqle in a way that violates these Terms or the rights of our data providers.

Prohibited Actions

You must not attempt to decompile, reverse engineer, or modify any portion of the platform's software or data processing algorithms. Automated scraping, data harvesting, or bypassing security mechanisms is strictly forbidden. Circumventing technological safeguards or using Searqle data to train AI models, develop competing services, or enhance external datasets without express written approval constitutes a violation of these Terms and applicable intellectual property laws.

Enforcement of Rights

The Company actively monitors unauthorized use of its intellectual property. Any violation of these provisions may result in account suspension, permanent banning, or legal proceedings. The Company reserves the right to seek injunctive relief, monetary damages, and recovery of legal costs from anyone who misuses its intellectual property or data.

Limited License for Personal Use

As a subscriber, you are granted a personal, non-commercial license to access the Platform's reports and content only for your own informational purposes. You may download and temporarily store reports solely for lawful personal use, and you may print reports for private use, provided that you do not alter, redistribute, or resell them. This license does not grant you any rights to integrate Searqle content into other products, services, or publications or to share your account or reports with third parties for commercial benefit.

Protection of Licensed Software

Searqle is protected by technological safeguards designed to detect and prevent unauthorized access, copying, or tampering. Any attempt to bypass these safeguards may constitute a violation of intellectual property laws, including the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) and equivalent legislation in your jurisdiction.

Survival of Intellectual Property Rights

Even if your subscription or license is terminated, all intellectual property rights in the Platform remain fully enforceable. Any reports or data previously downloaded remain subject to these restrictions, and you must delete or destroy any unauthorized copies of the Platform content.

7. Liability and Warranties

Service Provided “As Is“

Searqle is provided strictly on an “as is“ and “as available“ basis. While we make every reasonable effort to maintain the Platform's functionality, ensure data availability, and present accurate results, we do not guarantee that the Services will always be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of inaccuracies. The nature of the data we provide—sourced from public registries, licensed data providers, and other open databases—means that the information may be incomplete, outdated, or contain errors beyond our control. By using Searqle, you acknowledge and accept these inherent limitations.

No Warranties on Data Accuracy

The reports you obtain through Searqle are generated using third-party and publicly accessible data sources. We do not verify, validate, or confirm the accuracy, completeness, legality, or reliability of the information presented. We expressly disclaim any warranties, express or implied, regarding the correctness or timeliness of the information, and you agree that you rely on such data at your own risk. If you require certified or official records, you should seek them directly from government agencies or authorized record-keeping entities.

No Liability for Certain Uses

The Platform is designed for personal informational purposes only. It is not intended for making decisions that require legally validated information, such as employment screening, tenant background checks, credit evaluations, or any purpose governed by laws like the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Any attempt to use Searqle for such restricted purposes is strictly prohibited and may expose you to legal consequences. We are not liable for any damages or claims resulting from your misuse of the information for these or similar purposes.

User Responsibility

You are solely responsible for how you use Searqle and the reports generated through the Platform. It is your duty to ensure that your usage complies with applicable laws, privacy regulations, and the rights of individuals whose information appears in the reports. If your jurisdiction prohibits certain types of lookups or data access, it is your obligation to refrain from using Searqle in those ways.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Outlimit Inc., its affiliates, employees, licensors, and partners shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with your access to or use of Searqle. This includes, without limitation, any loss of profits, data, goodwill, reputation, or other intangible losses, even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

If for any reason liability cannot be fully excluded, our total aggregate liability to you shall not exceed the greater of fifty U.S. dollars (USD 50) or the total amount you paid to us in subscription fees during the six months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. This limitation reflects the reasonable allocation of risk between you and the Company, as the service is informational and non-certified in nature.

External Factors Beyond Control

We are not responsible for damages caused by factors beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to failures of telecommunications, cyberattacks, unauthorized third-party access, data breaches at external providers, internet outages, force majeure events, government restrictions, or the unavailability of third-party data sources.

No Guarantee of Availability

While we strive to maintain continuous access to Searqle, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted service. Temporary downtime may occur due to Platform updates, system maintenance, or technical failures. We are not liable for any inconvenience or loss resulting from such interruptions.

Third-Party Products and Services

Searqle may integrate or resell optional third-party services. We make no warranties or guarantees regarding these third-party products. If you choose to use such services, you acknowledge that any issues, malfunctions, or disputes must be resolved directly with the third-party provider. Our liability is limited solely to processing payments for those services, if purchased via our Platform.

Compliance with Law

You understand that certain jurisdictions may restrict or regulate the use of reverse lookup services. By using Searqle, you represent and warrant that your use is lawful in your location. The Company disclaims any liability arising from your violation of local, state, national, or international laws while using the platform.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, employees, licensors, and partners from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, or expenses arising from your use of Searqle, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of third-party rights. This obligation survives termination of your subscription or license.

8. Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution

Governing Law

These Terms of Use and any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of Searqle are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.

Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

Before pursuing any formal proceedings, both you and the Company agree to make reasonable efforts to resolve disputes informally by written notice and good-faith discussions. If a dispute cannot be resolved amicably, it shall be finally settled by arbitration under the Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), which are incorporated by reference into this clause. The number of arbitrators shall be one. The seat and legal place of arbitration shall be London, England and Wales, and the language of the arbitration shall be English. The parties hereby waive any right to challenge or appeal the arbitral award in any court or other authority, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Venue for Non-Arbitrable Matters

If for any reason a dispute is not subject to arbitration, you and the Company agree that it will be brought exclusively in the courts of Delaware, United States, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

Time Limitation on Claims

Any claim arising from or relating to your use of Searqle must be filed within one (1) year of its occurrence, otherwise it is permanently barred unless prohibited by law.

9. Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, together with the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Refund Policy and any additional notices provided within the Services, constitute the entire agreement between you and Searqle regarding the access and use of the Platform and Services. Any prior agreements, representations, or understandings—whether written or oral—are superseded and replaced in full by these Terms.

Right to Modify Terms

Searqle reserves the right to amend, update, or otherwise modify these Terms of Use at any time to reflect changes in the Services, applicable laws, or business practices. Any material updates will be communicated via the Website, and continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree with the modifications, you must discontinue use of the Services.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that most closely aligns with the original intent.

No Waiver of Rights

Our failure to enforce any provision or exercise any right under these Terms shall not be considered a waiver of such provision or right. Any waiver must be explicitly stated in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Searqle to be effective.

Assignment

You may not transfer or assign any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may freely assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, to any affiliate, successor, or acquirer as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of the business without notice to you.

Notices and Communications

All notices or other communications required or permitted under these Terms shall be made in writing. For technical, billing, or legal matters, please visit our Help Center, where you will find the appropriate sections and detailed information on how to submit your request. We may communicate with you electronically through notifications within your account or via messages sent to the email address associated with your account. You agree that such electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement for written notice.

No Relationship Created

Your use of the Services does not create any joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship between you and Searqle. You may not represent yourself as an agent, partner, or employee of the Company, nor bind the Company in any way.

Survival of Provisions

Any provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall remain in effect even after your access to the Services ends. This includes, without limitation, provisions regarding intellectual property, indemnification, limitation of liability, warranty disclaimers, and dispute resolution.

Language

These Terms are provided in English, which is the official and legally binding language. Translations, if offered, are provided for convenience only, and in the event of any discrepancies between the translated version and the English version, the English version shall prevail.

10. Searqle Search Opt-Out Policy

We respect your privacy and recognize your right to control how certain personal information appears in our search results.

We provide an opt-out mechanism that allows you to request the removal of phone numbers and email addresses from their display in our publicly accessible search results.

Opt-out requests apply only to phone numbers and email addresses.

To request removal of a phone number or email address from our search results, you must complete the following steps:

• Navigate to our designated Phone Opt-Out Page or Email Opt-Out Page.
• Enter the phone number or email address you wish to remove from our search results.
• Verify ownership of the submitted phone number or email address by entering a one-time password (OTP) sent to that phone number or email address.

To prevent fraudulent opt-out requests and unauthorized modifications, verification is mandatory. If ownership cannot be verified through successful OTP validation, we will be unable to process the opt-out request, and the phone number or email address will remain searchable until verification is completed.

Upon successful verification, the submitted phone number or email address will be suppressed from display in our publicly accessible search results.

Limitations and Disclaimers

Opt-out requests do not have retroactive effect. Any reports or search results generated prior to the processing of an opt-out request will not be modified or deleted.

If you wish to remove multiple phone numbers or email addresses, separate opt-out requests must be submitted for each identifier.

We are not responsible for incomplete, inaccurate, or duplicate opt-out submissions.

We do not maintain our own persistent data or information database. Our ability to suppress opted-out information is limited to our Platform and does not extend to from third-party providers and public sources that independently collect or display such information.

We do not guarantee that opted-out data will be permanently or universally inaccessible on our Platform, particularly where such data is repopulated from third-party providers and public sources. If this occurs, you may need to submit a new opt-out request so that we can re-suppress the information within our systems.

By submitting an opt-out request, you acknowledge that the opt-out process is provided as part of our commitment to your privacy rights. We are not responsible for ensuring compliance with privacy laws by third-party entities that may independently collect, use, or distribute the same information.

Support and Updates

If you have questions or require assistance with the opt-out process, you may contact our support team through our Help Center.

We reserve the right to modify this Opt-Out Policy and related procedures at our discretion, in compliance with applicable laws and best practices.

11. Contact Information and Final Notes

Important Reminders

By accessing and using Searqle, you confirm that you have read and understood these Terms of Use, along with the Privacy Policy, Refund Policy and Cookie Policy.

Continued use of the Services after any updates or modifications to the Terms signifies your acceptance of those changes.

If at any time you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must immediately stop using the Services and, if applicable, cancel your subscription.

Termination of Services

Searqle reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account, subscription, or access to the Platform at any time if we determine, at our sole discretion, that you have violated these Terms or applicable laws.
