Terms of Use

The terms that apply when people use The Rankings Desk website, research, links, and editorial submission channels.

Last updated: September 5, 2026

Acceptance of these terms

By using rankingsdesk.com, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the site. The Rankings Desk is owned and published by Elina Panteleyeva, with ShowUpWithAI LLC serving as its legal and payout entity.

What the publication provides

The Rankings Desk publishes editorial rankings, comparisons, research guides, methodology information, company facts, and source links. The material is general business information. It is not legal, financial, medical, accounting, employment, safety, or other professional advice.

A ranking is an editorial judgment for the specific buyer question, candidate universe, evidence record, eligibility rules, and scoring method stated on the page. It is not a guarantee of quality, availability, price, performance, suitability, or future results.

Buyer responsibility

Provider capabilities, prices, contracts, integrations, security practices, and public documentation can change. Buyers should review current provider terms, request demonstrations, check references, and obtain appropriate professional advice before making a purchase or operational decision.

External and affiliate links

The site links to provider websites, source documents, and other third party pages. The Rankings Desk does not control those sites or guarantee their content, security, availability, or practices. Some provider links are affiliate links, which means the publication may receive a commission after a qualifying action. Commercial relationships do not determine editorial eligibility, coverage, scores, or ranking position.

Permitted use

You may read, link to, and quote limited portions of the publication with clear attribution. You may not copy or republish substantial portions, misrepresent the research, remove disclosures, interfere with the site, attempt unauthorized access, or use the publication's name or marks to imply endorsement or affiliation.

Corrections and evidence submissions

A person submitting evidence confirms that they have the right to share it and that the submission is accurate to the best of their knowledge. The submission authorizes The Rankings Desk to review the material for editorial purposes. Submitting evidence does not guarantee coverage, a wording change, a score change, or a ranking change.

Do not send confidential information, trade secrets, passwords, payment details, or other highly sensitive material through ordinary email. If a source believes material requires special handling, they should contact the publication before sending it.

No warranties

The site and its content are provided as available. To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Rankings Desk disclaims warranties regarding accuracy, completeness, availability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement. Nothing in these terms excludes a right or obligation that cannot legally be excluded.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Rankings Desk, Elina Panteleyeva, and ShowUpWithAI LLC are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the site, reliance on its content, or interaction with an external provider. This limitation does not apply where applicable law does not permit it.

Changes and contact

These terms may change as the publication and its services change. The date at the top identifies the current version. Questions about these terms can be sent to hello@rankingsdesk.com.
