1. Terms of Service

1.1 Acceptance

By accessing or using STARTQUICK (startquick.vercel.app), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

1.2 What STARTQUICK Does

STARTQUICK is an AI-powered domain finder and startup toolkit. We help you search for available domain names, compare registrar prices, and discover AI-generated brand name suggestions. We also provide affiliate links to third-party services such as domain registrars and web hosting.

1.3 Your Use of the Service

You agree to:

  • Use STARTQUICK only for lawful purposes
  • Not attempt to reverse engineer or copy our AI systems
  • Not use automated bots to scrape our results at scale
  • Not misuse our services to harm other users or third parties
  • Provide accurate information when you sign up

1.4 Third-Party Links

STARTQUICK contains affiliate links to third-party registrars including Namecheap, GoDaddy, Hostinger, Porkbun, and Spaceship. We are not responsible for the content, pricing, or practices of these third-party services. When you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

1.5 Accuracy of Information

Domain availability data comes from the global WHOIS registry via the WhoisJSON API. While we strive for accuracy, we cannot guarantee that availability data is 100% accurate at all times — always verify directly on the registrar before purchasing.

Price data is fetched from registrar APIs and public sources in real time. Prices shown are indicative and may differ from the registrar website due to promotions, currency conversion, or timing. We are not responsible for price discrepancies.

1.6 AI-Generated Content

Brand name suggestions and other AI-generated content are created by Claude AI (Anthropic). STARTQUICK does not guarantee that any AI-generated name is free from trademark conflicts, legally available in your jurisdiction, or not already in use by another business.

Always conduct your own trademark search before adopting any brand name. STARTQUICK is not a legal service and this is not legal advice.

1.7 Service Availability

We aim for high uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. STARTQUICK may be unavailable for maintenance, updates, or due to factors outside our control.

1.8 Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, STARTQUICK shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of our service, including loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption.

1.9 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

1.10 Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. Continued use of STARTQUICK after changes means you accept the new Terms.

3. Cookie Policy

3.1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and improve your experience.

3.2 Cookies We Use

STARTQUICK currently uses only the minimal, essential cookies needed for the site to function. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any advertising cookies. If we introduce functional or analytics cookies in the future, we will update this policy and show a cookie consent banner.

3.3 Third-Party Cookies

When you click an affiliate link to Namecheap, GoDaddy, Hostinger, or another partner, that site may set its own cookies to track the referral — this is how affiliate commissions are counted. We have no control over third-party cookies.

3.4 Managing Cookies

4. Affiliate Disclosure

4.1 Our Affiliate Relationships

STARTQUICK participates in affiliate marketing programs, which means we earn a commission when you click certain links and make a purchase. We have (or are joining) affiliate relationships with:

  • Registrars: Namecheap, GoDaddy, Hostinger, Porkbun, Spaceship
  • Domain marketplaces (for taken domains): Sedo, Afternic, Dan.com, Flippa

4.2 How This Affects You

Affiliate commissions do not affect the price you pay — you pay the same whether you use our link or go directly to the registrar.

Our affiliate relationships do not affect our rankings. We show registrars ranked by price — cheapest first — regardless of commission rates, and we show honest tier badges when we cannot fetch a real price.

4.3 Why We Have Affiliates

Affiliate commissions let us keep STARTQUICK free for users. Without affiliate income, we would need to charge for domain search.

This disclosure complies with:

  • FTC guidelines (USA) — 16 CFR Part 255
  • ASA guidelines (UK)
  • Consumer Protection Act (India)
  • EU Directive on Unfair Commercial Practices
