Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of American Companies. By using the site you agree to them.

The directory

Browsing is free. Company information is provided as a convenience and may change. Trust badges are our independent assessment based on the evidence reviewed — they are a credible signal, not a guarantee, and do not constitute an endorsement of any purchase.

Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for activity under your account. Provide accurate information and keep it current.

Memberships & billing

Paid memberships are billed annually. The price for your company size is shown before you purchase. Memberships auto-renew until cancelled; you can cancel in one click from your dashboard and keep access until the end of the period you’ve paid for.

Credentials

Badges are earned through independent review against a fixed rubric and can never be purchased. We may re-review, downgrade, or revoke a credential if the facts change.

Acceptable use

Don’t misuse the site, submit false information, or use it for unlawful or abusive purposes. We may remove listings or suspend accounts that violate these terms.

Disclaimer & liability

The service is provided “as is.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the site.

Changes

We may update these terms and will post changes here; continued use means you accept them.
