Terms of Service
Last updated: October 29, 2026
The Service
BotView analyzes websites for search engine and AI crawler visibility. We crawl URLs you provide and generate reports showing how bots see your pages.
Paid plans also include AI answer checks: we send questions you approve to the OpenAI API with web search and save the answers, cited sources and suggested next steps. Each answer is a sample of that API setup, not a record of what people see in ChatGPT or a ranking. See the privacy policy for what is sent to OpenAI and how long it is kept.
Acceptable Use
- Only scan websites you own or have permission to analyze
- Don't abuse the service to overload target websites
- Don't circumvent usage limits
- Don't use automated tools to access our service
Usage Limits
Each plan has monthly scan and AI answer check limits. Allowances reset on the first of each UTC calendar month, and unused scans or checks don't roll over. We may suspend accounts that abuse limits or violate these terms.
Payments & Refunds
- Subscriptions are billed monthly via Stripe
- Cancel anytime - access continues until period ends
- Refunds considered on a case-by-case basis within 7 days of purchase
Disclaimer
BotView provides informational reports. We don't guarantee SEO improvements or specific search rankings. Crawler behavior may change - our analysis reflects current known patterns.
Liability
We're not liable for decisions made based on our reports, or for temporary service unavailability. Our liability is limited to the amount you've paid us in the last 12 months.
Changes
We may update these terms. Continued use after changes means you accept them.
