Terms of Service
1. Acceptance
These Terms govern your use of the NewBizWeekly website and reports (the "Service"). The Service is operated by BrandXtrategy LLC, a Florida company ("we", "us"). By requesting a sample, subscribing or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. What the Service is
NewBizWeekly sells a weekly list of businesses newly registered in a Florida county. We compile it from the public data files of the Florida Division of Corporations (Sunbiz). Each entry can include the entity name, type, filing date, principal address, registered agent, officers, a likely sector and derived signals (for example, whether the registered agent is a formation agent, or whether an officer appears on other entities). Reports are delivered by email as PDF, Excel and CSV files.
3. Public records, provided "as is"
The underlying data are public records. We provide the Service and all data "as is" and "as available". We make no warranty of accuracy, completeness, timeliness or fitness for any particular purpose. Records can be late, incomplete, wrong or changed after we publish them. Verify details before you rely on them.
Sector labels and derived signals are automated estimates based on heuristics, such as keywords in an entity name. They will sometimes be wrong. They are not statements of fact about any business or person.
4. Not a consumer report
NewBizWeekly is not a consumer reporting agency and the reports are not consumer reports or credit reports. Do not use the Service, in whole or in part, to decide eligibility for credit, employment, insurance, housing or any other purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) or similar laws.
5. Your responsibility for how you use the data
You alone are responsible for your use of the data and for complying with all laws and rules that apply to you. That includes, without limitation:
- CAN-SPAM for commercial email;
- the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA): do not call or text a cell phone number without the required consent;
- federal and state Do-Not-Call rules;
- Florida and other state laws on telemarketing, privacy and unfair practices;
- the policies of any platform you use to contact people (email providers, LinkedIn, ad networks and others).
6. Prohibited uses
You may not:
- resell, sublicense, publish or otherwise redistribute the lists or any substantial part of them;
- scrape, copy or systematically extract content from the website or reports by automated means, other than the files we deliver to you;
- use the data to harass, threaten, stalk or discriminate against anyone;
- use the data for any unlawful purpose, or in any way described in section 4.
7. License
While your subscription (or free sample) is active, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the reports for your own internal business purposes. You may share them with your employees and contractors who need them for that purpose, and no one else. We keep all rights not expressly granted.
8. Intellectual property
The compiled format of the reports, our sector classification, derived signals, layout, branding and website are owned by BrandXtrategy LLC. We do not claim ownership of the underlying public records.
9. Subscription, billing and cancellation
Paid plans are billed monthly in advance through a payment processor (currently being set up; until then, access is arranged by email and invoice). You can cancel at any time, and the cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not give pro-rated refunds for unused time, except where the law requires it. We may change prices with advance notice by email; the new price applies from your next billing period, and you may cancel before then.
10. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or end your access if you violate these Terms, misuse the Service or fail to pay. We may also change or discontinue parts of the Service.
11. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or business opportunities, even if we were told they were possible. Our total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 3 months before the event that gave rise to the claim.
12. Indemnification
You agree to defend and indemnify BrandXtrategy LLC against claims, damages and costs (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from your use of the data, your breach of these Terms or your violation of any law or third-party right.
13. No legal advice
Nothing in the Service or on this site is legal advice. If you are unsure whether a use of the data is lawful, ask a qualified attorney.
14. No affiliation with the State of Florida
NewBizWeekly is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the State of Florida or the Florida Division of Corporations. "Sunbiz" is named only to identify the source of the public data.
15. Governing law and venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Broward County, Florida, and you consent to that jurisdiction.
16. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change is material, we will tell subscribers by email. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept it.
