Terms of Service

Welcome to SiftGuide (siftguide.com). By accessing or using this website, you agree to the terms below. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. Who we are

SiftGuide is published by Innovative Web Services SRL, a company registered in Bucharest, Romania. We operate an English-language content site serving an international, primarily US-based audience across beauty & personal care, home/tech products, and software/SaaS.

2. Informational content only

All content on SiftGuide — including guides, reviews, comparisons, and how-tos — is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not professional advice of any kind (medical, legal, financial, or technical), and nothing on this site creates a professional or advisory relationship between you and us.

Beauty and personal care content is cosmetic information, not medical advice. Descriptions of skincare, haircare, and personal-care products refer to cosmetic effects only (e.g., appearance, hydration, texture). We do not diagnose, treat, or offer guidance for medical skin conditions. If you have a persistent skin concern, allergy, or reaction, consult a licensed dermatologist or physician rather than relying on this site.

For software/SaaS and home/tech content, our guides reflect research into publicly available documentation and third-party sources at the time of writing — they are not a substitute for testing a product yourself against your specific requirements.

3. Accuracy disclaimer

We do our best to keep information accurate and current, but product specifications, pricing, features, availability, and terms of service for third-party products change frequently and without notice. We do not conduct hands-on testing of every product we cover; content is based on manufacturer documentation, official product pages, and independent, publicly available sources, cited where relevant. Always verify current specifications, pricing, and compatibility directly with the manufacturer or retailer before making a purchase decision. We make no warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any information on this site.

4. Affiliate relationships

SiftGuide participates in affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn a commission from qualifying purchases made through links on this site, at no additional cost to you. This includes, where applicable, the Amazon Associates program and other affiliate networks in the beauty, home/tech, and software/SaaS categories. Affiliate relationships never influence our editorial judgment about what to recommend. Full disclosure appears on individual content pages as required by the FTC and applicable Amazon Associates terms.

5. Intellectual property

All original text, graphics, logos, and layout on SiftGuide are the property of Innovative Web Services SRL unless otherwise credited, and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may share links to our content and quote brief excerpts with proper attribution, but you may not reproduce, republish, or redistribute substantial portions of our content without prior written permission. Product names, logos, and trademarks referenced on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only; no affiliation or endorsement by those owners is implied.

Our content links to third-party websites, including retailers and manufacturers, for your convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of those external sites. Visiting a linked site is at your own risk and subject to that site’s own terms.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Innovative Web Services SRL and SiftGuide shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in connection with your use of this site, reliance on its content, or any transaction with a third party initiated through a link on this site. The site and its content are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. The “last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Romania and, where applicable, European Union law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles — reflecting that SiftGuide is operated by an EU-based company even though our audience is primarily international. Nothing in this section limits any statutory consumer protection rights you may have under the laws of your own country of residence.
