Terms and Conditions
Effective date: September 30, 2026
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern access to and use of LocalBusinessLocator.com (“LocalBusinessLocator.com,” “LBL,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including business-directory listings, reviews, classified advertisements, job postings, event listings, press releases, citation-building services, SEO and marketing services, email-blast services, advertising, account features, payment features, and related services.
By using the site, creating an account, submitting content, purchasing a service, or submitting a listing, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the applicable service.
1. Operator and Contact
LocalBusinessLocator.com is operated under the LBL name. Contact: info@localbusinesslocator.com; (951) 289-1710; 4865 Jackson St, Riverside, CA 92503.
2. Eligibility and Authority
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account, purchase services, submit listings, post content, or enter into a paid transaction. If you act for a business or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity and to publish the submitted business information.
3. Directory Role; No Endorsement or Verification Guarantee
LBL provides an information, directory, advertising, and marketing platform. Unless a listing expressly states otherwise, LBL does not independently verify every business name, license, professional credential, address, price, claim, review, offer, service description, or other statement supplied by a user or third party. Inclusion in the directory is not an endorsement, certification, recommendation, agency relationship, partnership, or guarantee.
Users should independently evaluate businesses and professionals and confirm licenses, insurance, qualifications, prices, warranties, availability, and other material terms before hiring or paying them. Information concerning legal, medical, financial, construction, real-estate, insurance, or other regulated services is informational only and is not professional advice from LBL.
4. User-Submitted Content
You are solely responsible for content you submit, including business information, descriptions, advertisements, images, logos, reviews, jobs, events, press releases, offers, links, email-blast materials, and other materials (“User Content”). You represent and warrant that your User Content is accurate to the best of your knowledge, is not misleading, and that you own it or have all permissions necessary to submit, publish, reproduce, display, edit, distribute, and use it for the requested services.
You grant LBL a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, format, edit for style or technical compatibility, display, distribute, index, transmit, and otherwise use User Content as reasonably necessary to operate the site and perform purchased or requested services. This license ends when the content is removed from LBL systems, except for archival, legal, backup, completed-service, search-engine-cache, and third-party-distribution copies that LBL cannot reasonably control.
5. Network Distribution and Citation Services
Submitting a listing to LocalBusinessLocator.com does not by itself authorize distribution to unrelated websites unless the submission, plan, order, or other affirmative authorization expressly includes network or citation distribution. When you purchase or affirmatively authorize citation or network-distribution services, you authorize LBL to submit the business information you provide to the selected third-party directories, search platforms, network sites, or marketing channels reasonably necessary to perform that service.
Third-party services control their own approval, publication, moderation, verification, indexing, removal, suspension, and account requirements. LBL does not guarantee that a third party will approve, retain, index, rank, or display a submission.
6. Prohibited Content and Conduct
You may not submit or use the site for unlawful, fraudulent, deceptive, infringing, defamatory, threatening, harassing, hateful, discriminatory, sexually explicit, exploitative, malicious, or privacy-invasive content or conduct. You may not impersonate another person or business; misrepresent authorization, licensing, affiliation, reviews, testimonials, credentials, prices, or offers; publish private information without authority; distribute malware; scrape or attack the site; evade account restrictions; or interfere with site security.
LBL may refuse, edit, suspend, remove, downgrade, or disable content or accounts that violate these Terms, create a safety or legal risk, appear fraudulent or misleading, infringe rights, or materially degrade the service. Moderation decisions may be made with or without prior notice where appropriate.
7. Reviews and Testimonials
Reviews must reflect a genuine experience and must comply with the Review Policy. Businesses and users may not create, buy, sell, procure, or knowingly disseminate fake or false reviews; condition compensation or benefits on a particular positive or negative sentiment; conceal a material insider relationship when disclosure is required; use unfounded threats or intimidation to suppress legitimate negative reviews; or falsely represent that a displayed review set is complete when reviews have been suppressed based on sentiment.
LBL may remove reviews for fraud, spam, conflicts of interest, unlawful content, threats, personal information, irrelevance, or other policy violations, but does not promise to remove a review merely because it is negative or disputed.
8. Intellectual Property and DMCA
Users may not submit content that infringes copyrights, trademarks, publicity rights, privacy rights, or other proprietary rights. Copyright complaints are governed by the DMCA & Copyright Policy. LBL may remove or disable access to disputed content and may terminate repeat infringers where appropriate.
9. Paid Services, Pricing, and Taxes
Prices, features, service scopes, delivery estimates, and billing frequencies are those displayed at the time of order or stated in an accepted written proposal. Prices may change prospectively. Unless expressly stated otherwise, taxes, third-party fees, media spend, premium placement charges, and other pass-through costs are additional where applicable.
Payment processors may impose their own terms. LBL does not intentionally store full payment-card numbers on its own servers.
10. Automatic Renewal and Recurring Charges
A product is recurring only when the checkout or order flow clearly identifies it as automatically renewing or a continuous service before purchase. A one-time purchase does not become recurring merely because an account remains open.
For an automatically renewing plan, LBL will obtain any affirmative consent required by applicable law before recurring charges begin and will provide required renewal terms, acknowledgments, reminders, price-change notices, and cancellation methods. If you enrolled online, any legally required online cancellation method will be made available without unreasonable obstruction or delay.
If a checkout does not clearly disclose recurring billing and obtain any consent required by law, that checkout should not be treated as authorizing recurring charges. Contact info@localbusinesslocator.com promptly regarding any disputed recurring charge.
11. Cancellation and Refunds
The Refund & Cancellation Policy is incorporated into these Terms. Statutory refund, cancellation, chargeback, and consumer rights that cannot lawfully be waived remain unaffected.
12. No SEO, Ranking, Lead, Sales, or Indexing Guarantee
Search engines, directories, social platforms, advertising systems, email providers, and other third parties control their own algorithms and policies. LBL does not guarantee rankings, traffic, impressions, clicks, leads, sales, revenue, review volume, indexation, citation approval, publication dates, or any specific business result. Estimates and examples are not guarantees.
13. Email and Advertising Services
Customers supplying advertising, email, promotional, or press-release content are responsible for the truthfulness and legality of their claims and for having necessary rights and permissions. LBL may reject content that appears deceptive, infringing, unlawful, unsafe, or likely to create spam or deliverability problems. Customers may not require LBL to send email to unlawfully obtained lists or to evade opt-out requirements.
14. Third-Party Sites and Services
The site may link to, embed, integrate with, or submit information to third-party sites and services. LBL does not control and is not responsible for third-party availability, security, content, privacy practices, pricing, moderation, or performance. Your use of a third party may be governed by that party’s terms and privacy policy.
15. Accounts and Security
You are responsible for maintaining accurate account information and safeguarding credentials. Notify LBL promptly of suspected unauthorized use. LBL may require reasonable identity or authority verification before changing account ownership, billing instructions, or sensitive business information.
16. Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” LBL DISCLAIMS WARRANTIES THAT ARE NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN A WRITTEN ORDER OR AGREEMENT, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. LBL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.
17. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LBL WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH DAMAGES MAY OCCUR.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LBL’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR A CLAIM RELATING TO A PAID SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID TO LBL FOR THE SPECIFIC SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. FOR A FREE SERVICE, LBL’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED $100. THESE LIMITATIONS DO NOT APPLY WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW OR TO LIABILITY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE LIMITED.
18. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LBL and its owners, personnel, contractors, and service providers from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from your User Content, your unlawful or infringing conduct, your breach of these Terms, or your products, services, advertisements, offers, representations, or customer dealings. This provision does not require indemnification for LBL’s own conduct to the extent prohibited by law.
19. Content Complaints and Business Disputes
LBL is not a court or licensing board and ordinarily will not adjudicate private contractual disputes between directory users and listed businesses. LBL may request documentation and may annotate, suspend, or remove content where needed to address fraud, safety, legal process, impersonation, infringement, or policy violations. Send legal or content complaints to info@localbusinesslocator.com with the relevant URL and supporting information.
20. Accessibility and Reasonable Assistance
LBL seeks to provide accessible access to its online goods and services. If a disability prevents you from accessing information or completing a transaction, contact info@localbusinesslocator.com or (951) 289-1710 and describe the information, service, or accommodation needed. See the Accessibility Statement for additional information.
21. Governing Law; Informal Dispute Resolution; Venue
Before filing a non-emergency claim, the parties are encouraged to provide written notice describing the dispute and requested resolution and allow at least 30 days for a good-faith effort to resolve it. Notices to LBL may be sent to info@localbusinesslocator.com and 4865 Jackson St, Riverside, CA 92503.
Except where a non-waivable law requires otherwise, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any court proceeding that is not required by law to be brought elsewhere will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction serving Riverside County, California. Nothing in this section waives rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be waived, including access to a small-claims forum where applicable.
22. Changes; Severability; Waiver; Assignment
LBL may update these Terms prospectively. Material changes will be posted with a revised effective date and, where legally required, additional notice or consent will be provided. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect to the extent permitted by law. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign your obligations without LBL’s consent; LBL may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or successor operation.
23. Entire Agreement and Service-Specific Terms
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, Refund & Cancellation Policy, Review Policy, DMCA & Copyright Policy, any checkout disclosures, and any accepted written proposal or service-specific terms constitute the agreement governing the applicable service. If a signed or expressly accepted service-specific agreement conflicts with these Terms, that service-specific agreement controls for that transaction.
