Terms of service

Last updated October 21, 2026. These terms govern your use of the companybrokers.com service, operated by the administrator of the companybrokers.com service ("CompanyBrokers", "we"). By creating an account you accept them. Questions go to [email protected].

The service

CompanyBrokers is an online marketplace where owners, business brokers and buyers value, list, search and discuss the sale of privately held companies. We provide software and a venue. We are not a party to any transaction, we are not a business broker, real estate broker, securities broker-dealer, lender, appraiser, attorney or accountant, and nothing on the service is legal, tax, financial or investment advice.

Accounts

  • You must be at least 18 and act for yourself or for a business you are authorized to represent.
  • You confirm your email address with a one-time code and keep your password confidential.
  • You are responsible for activity under your account and for the seats you assign on team plans.

Listings and broker profiles

  • You may list only companies you own or are authorized in writing to market.
  • Listing information must be accurate and not misleading. Financial figures are provided by the seller and are not verified by us.
  • Brokers confirm they hold the license or registration their state requires for the services they offer, and keep it current.
  • We may review, edit for format, refuse or remove listings and profiles that break these terms or the law.

Buyers

  • Buyers must sign the listing's NDA before receiving confidential information and must honor it.
  • Proof of funds must be genuine and belong to the buyer or the buyer's capital partners.
  • Buyers do their own due diligence with their own advisors before any purchase.

Valuations

Valuation results are automated estimates based on the figures you enter and industry multiple ranges. They are not an appraisal, a fairness opinion or a guarantee of any price.

Prohibited use

  • Listing a company or asset you have no right to sell, or listing securities offerings that require registration
  • Using confidential information outside the purpose of evaluating the listed company
  • Contacting a seller's staff, customers, suppliers or landlord without the seller's permission
  • Scraping, reselling listing data or circumventing access controls
  • Uploading malware or unlawful content

Plans, billing and cancellation

  • Paid plans are subscriptions billed monthly or yearly in advance in US dollars, plus sales tax where it applies.
  • Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each period until you cancel.
  • You can cancel anytime by emailing [email protected]. Cancellation stops the next renewal, and access continues until the end of the paid period. Cancelling does not reverse a charge already taken.
  • Payments are final. Fees already paid are not refunded for a change of mind, unused time, a renewal you did not cancel in time, the wrong plan or a part period after cancellation.
  • We refund only in three cases, and only the affected charge: a duplicate charge caused by a fault in our billing, a proven unauthorised charge reported to us within 14 days, and a complete failure of the service that we confirmed and could not resolve. Send the request to [email protected] within 14 days of the charge.
  • Raising a chargeback instead of contacting us first is a breach of these terms and can close the account.
  • Where the law requires a refund, we refund as the law requires.
  • Plan changes apply to your existing subscription.
  • We announce price changes by email at least 30 days before they apply to your next renewal.
  • Searching listings, deal alerts and NDA requests by buyers carry no charge.

Your content

You keep ownership of everything you upload. You give us a license to host, display and transmit it as needed to run the service for you and for the users you approve. You can ask us to export or delete your content at any time by emailing [email protected].

Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The service is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for the outcome of any transaction, the accuracy of user content, or indirect or consequential damages, and our total liability is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.

Suspension and termination

We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms, after notice where reasonable. You may close your account at any time by writing to [email protected].

Changes and governing law

We may update these terms and show the date of the last update at the top; material changes are announced by email. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law rules.
