Terms of Service

Last updated: May 17, 2026

By creating an account or using DropScope, you agree to these terms. They are short on purpose — please read them.

The service

DropScope is a hosted tool that scores expired and auction domains using public signals (WHOIS, DNS, historical archive data, authority metrics, and reputation feeds) plus a plain-language summary. We provide the analysis; the decision to buy any domain is yours.

Your account

  • You are responsible for keeping your password safe. One person per account.
  • You won't share your credentials, and you'll tell us if you suspect unauthorised use.
  • We may suspend accounts that abuse the service (mass automated scraping, attempts to circumvent rate limits, fraudulent payments).

Acceptable use

Don't use DropScope to:

  • scrape the service at a rate that interferes with other customers,
  • resell raw API output as a competing product without an Agency plan agreement,
  • build datasets that target individuals or attempt to dox domain owners,
  • or do anything that violates applicable law or the third-party APIs we rely on (notably Google Safe Browsing's acceptable-use policy and OpenPageRank's free-tier limits).

Plans and billing

Free, Indie, Pro, and Agency tiers are described on the pricing page. Paid plans are billed monthly in advance. You can cancel any time from your account settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. Refunds for prorated unused time are granted on a case-by-case basis — email billing@dropscope.app.

No investment advice

DropScores, classifications, and AI summaries are opinions derived from public data, not financial or investment advice. Domain value depends on many factors outside DropScope's view — buyer intent, brand fit, future SEO algorithm changes, registrar policies. Always do your own due diligence before buying.

Service availability

We aim for high uptime but don't guarantee uninterrupted service. Third-party data providers (Wayback, RDAP registries, OpenPageRank, Google Safe Browsing) occasionally degrade — DropScope handles this gracefully but the resulting score may have less signal in those windows.

Intellectual property

The DropScope codebase, scoring engine, brand, and user interface are owned by the DropScope team. The raw signals (registration dates, page-rank values, blacklist results) are owned by their respective providers. The scored output is yours to use commercially within your plan limits.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, DropScope and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service. Our aggregate liability is limited to the amount you paid in the most recent 12 months of your subscription.

Changes

We may update these terms when the service changes materially. We'll announce changes in the changelog. Continued use after an update means you accept the new terms.
