Terms of Use

CandidCodes Website Terms
Terms of Use

The rules, editorial limits, third-party boundaries, permitted uses, and responsibilities that apply when accessing CandidCodes.

The short version: CandidCodes provides independent editorial information, not merchant checkout or professional advice. Coupons, prices, products, plans, and policies can change. Use the site lawfully, verify the final transaction with the merchant, and do not treat a review as a guarantee.

Acceptance and scope

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of candidcodes.com, including its articles, coupon and deal pages, store reviews, buyer guides, product comparisons, software pricing coverage, policy pages, and contact routes.

By using the site, you agree to these terms to the extent permitted by applicable law. If you do not agree, do not use CandidCodes. Separate merchant, affiliate-network, embedded-service, or payment-provider terms apply when you use their independent websites or services.

What CandidCodes is - and is not

Independent publisher

CandidCodes researches and explains shopping information. It may earn compensation from eligible affiliate actions while retaining editorial control.

Not the merchant

CandidCodes does not manufacture or sell the products it covers, process merchant payments, ship orders, issue refunds, or operate third-party customer accounts.

Not a certification service

A store review, score, label, or guide is an editorial assessment based on available evidence, not a guarantee of identity, security, product quality, or every future transaction.

Not professional advice

Editorial information is general. It is not legal, financial, tax, medical, safety, or other regulated professional advice for a reader's specific circumstances.

Editorial information and changing offers

CandidCodes aims for clear, current, evidence-led information, but cannot guarantee that every code, price, stock status, product specification, software feature, shipping promise, return rule, warranty, subscription term, or merchant statement remains available in every market and account state.

Coupons and deals

A code may depend on date, region, customer status, account, cart, product, quantity, minimum spend, app or website, payment method, or stacking rules. A published code is not a promise that the merchant will accept it.

Prices and savings

Taxes, shipping, currency conversion, recurring fees, add-ons, and merchant price changes can alter the final value. The merchant's current checkout controls the transaction.

Store reviews

A review reports available evidence and limitations at a point in time. It does not insure an order, replace due diligence, or guarantee merchant conduct.

Products and software

Features, specifications, compatibility, plans, limits, trials, renewals, and support can change. Confirm the current official documentation before relying on a material requirement.

Affiliate links and third-party services

Some CandidCodes links are affiliate-supported. If a reader deliberately follows an eligible link and completes a qualifying action, a merchant or network may attribute the action to CandidCodes and may pay compensation. The Disclosure Policy explains this relationship.

An external website is controlled by its own operator. CandidCodes is not responsible for its availability, account access, checkout, privacy, cookies, content, security, delivery, refunds, warranties, cancellations, or support. A link is not a guarantee or blanket endorsement.

Review the destination domain and its current terms before providing personal information or paying. Disputes about an external order or account must normally be directed to that merchant or service.

Permitted use

CandidCodes grants a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable permission to access the public site for lawful personal, research, journalistic, or internal business reference, subject to these terms and applicable law.

  • You may link to a public page without implying endorsement or affiliation.
  • You may quote or paraphrase limited portions where permitted, with accurate attribution and preservation of material qualifications.
  • You may print or save a reasonable copy for personal reference.
  • You may report errors, submit correction evidence, or make a legitimate commercial or media inquiry through the published contact route.

No permission is granted to use CandidCodes branding as your own, reproduce a substantial part of the site as a competing database, or imply that CandidCodes approved an external product, merchant, publication, or campaign.

Prohibited use

  • Attempting to bypass security, probe non-public systems, introduce malware, overload infrastructure, or interfere with another visitor.
  • Using automated collection at a volume or manner that disrupts the site, ignores lawful access controls, or republishes substantial protected content without permission.
  • Submitting false identity, fraudulent evidence, unlawful content, malicious code, spam, or material that infringes another person's rights.
  • Manipulating affiliate links, attribution, cookies, clicks, leads, transactions, ratings, reports, or correction requests.
  • Scraping contact details for spam, impersonation, harassment, or misleading commercial solicitation.
  • Removing disclosures, dates, qualifications, copyright notices, source context, or limitations in a way that changes the meaning of CandidCodes content.

Intellectual property and brand use

Unless otherwise stated, CandidCodes site design, original text, organization, graphics, and branding are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Merchant names, logos, product images, and other third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners and may appear for identification, commentary, or editorial context.

Permission to use CandidCodes material beyond the limited use described here must be requested in writing. No trademark license, endorsement, partnership, or ownership transfer is created by access to the site.

Messages, evidence, and submissions

If you send a correction, screenshot, document, suggestion, or other material, you confirm that you have the right to provide it and that CandidCodes may use it as reasonably necessary to review the request, verify the claim, communicate a decision, protect the site, and make a supported correction or update.

Do not submit confidential business information, passwords, one-time codes, complete payment-card numbers, unnecessary identity documents, or private order data that CandidCodes did not request. Submission does not guarantee publication, removal, compensation, confidentiality, or a particular outcome.

Availability, changes, and enforcement

CandidCodes may change, suspend, restrict, archive, or remove site features or content when reasonably necessary for maintenance, security, legal compliance, editorial accuracy, provider changes, or operational decisions. Continuous or error-free availability is not guaranteed.

CandidCodes may limit access or reject submissions that appear abusive, fraudulent, unlawful, technically harmful, or inconsistent with these terms. Such action does not remove rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CandidCodes is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. CandidCodes does not promise that content is complete, continuously current, suitable for every purpose, or free from interruption or technical error.

Nothing in these terms excludes a warranty, duty, remedy, or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded. If a jurisdiction does not permit a particular disclaimer, that disclaimer applies only to the maximum extent allowed there.

Limits of responsibility

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CandidCodes and its operator are not responsible for loss caused by relying on an expired or ineligible offer, an external merchant's act or omission, a third-party account or checkout, an interruption outside reasonable control, or use of the site contrary to these terms.

Readers remain responsible for reviewing the final price, destination, product or plan, eligibility, taxes, shipping, recurring charges, cancellation, returns, warranty, and merchant terms before acting. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated when site features, business relationships, security needs, editorial practices, or legal requirements change. The review date should be updated when a material revision is published. Continued use after an update means the revised terms apply from their effective publication, subject to mandatory rights under applicable law.

If one provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions should continue to apply to the extent legally possible. A failure to enforce one provision on one occasion does not automatically waive it for another occasion.

Founder, CEO & Editorial Lead

Nguyen Van Dinh

Nguyen Van Dinh operates CandidCodes and is responsible for the published terms, editorial boundaries, correction route, and commercial-disclosure framework. Questions about an external purchase still belong with the merchant that processed the transaction.

Frequently asked questions

Is CandidCodes responsible for my merchant order?

No. The merchant or service controls the order, payment, delivery, return, refund, warranty, cancellation, and private account.

Does a “verified” code guarantee a discount?

No. Verification describes evidence available at a time and under conditions. The merchant's current checkout and eligibility rules control the result.

May I reuse CandidCodes content?

Limited quotation, paraphrase, linking, or personal reference may be permitted with accurate attribution. Substantial copying, republication, brand misuse, or creation of a competing database may require written permission.

Which law governs these terms?

These terms do not invent a registered business jurisdiction that has not been published. Mandatory rights and applicable law may depend on the parties, activity, and location. Obtain qualified advice for a specific legal dispute.
