The rules, in plain words.

These terms are an agreement between you and Space-O Technologies (FreshlyCited) legal entity and address to confirm. By creating an account or using FreshlyCited, you agree to them and to our Privacy Policy. If you use FreshlyCited for a company or for clients, you confirm you may accept these terms on their behalf.

FreshlyCited checks whether search engines show the pages and links you give it, sends the ones they don’t show to Google, also notifies Bing and other IndexNow engines for sites you have verified, re-checks them, and reports what changed. You can use it in the app, through our API, or from AI assistants through our MCP server.

We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Google, Microsoft (Bing, Copilot), OpenAI (ChatGPT) or Perplexity. Their names belong to their owners and are used only to describe what our service works with. Whether and when a page is indexed, ranked or cited is decided by those companies, not by us.

Give accurate details and keep your password and API keys private: you are responsible for what happens under your account and keys. Tell us straight away if you think someone else has access.

To keep the free plan fair, we verify email addresses, allow one free account per email domain and limit how many accounts can be created from one network within 30 days. We may review, approve or decline new accounts.

Only submit pages and links you own or have permission to submit. Do not use FreshlyCited for:

• spam, private blog networks (PBNs), doorway pages, scraped or auto-generated junk, or link schemes meant to manipulate search results;
• malware, phishing, illegal content, or content that infringes someone else’s rights;
• getting around plan limits, rate limits or the free-plan rules, or reselling access without our agreement;
• probing, overloading or reverse engineering the service.

We may refuse or skip any URL, pause a job, or suspend an account that breaks these rules. Credits spent on URLs refused as spam are not returned.

FreshlyCited runs on credits:

• Index credits. 1 index credit sends one URL for indexing (5 for a priority push).
• Check credits. 1 check credit runs one standard index check (5 for a live check).

Index credits are used only if the page is indexed. When you submit a URL, an index credit is reserved. We re-check on day 1, day 3 and day 7 after submission. If a re-check confirms the page is indexed, the credit is used. If it is still not indexed after the day-7 re-check, the reserved credit is released back to you automatically.

Exclusions. The reserved credit is used, and not released, when the URL can’t be indexed for a reason on your side: it returns an error (4xx or 5xx), carries a noindex, is blocked by robots.txt, redirects, has a canonical pointing elsewhere, is removed by you, or is spam. We check for these before submitting and offer to skip them for free.

Check credits are used when the check runs, whatever the result, and are not returned.

Credits from one-off packs expire 12 months after purchase. Plan credits carry over for one month. Plan credits are spent first, then the oldest pack credits.

We don’t guarantee that any page will be indexed, ranked, shown in AI Overviews, or cited by ChatGPT, Copilot, Perplexity or any other engine. Search engines decide that. The credit-back rule above is the only remedy for a page that isn’t indexed.

The free plan includes 10 index credits once, 100 check credits each month, 1 workspace and 1 seat, up to 50 URLs per job and 3 jobs at a time, and read-only API access (60 requests an hour). No card is needed. We may change or end the free plan, and we may close free accounts that break the rules in §3 or §4.

Paid plans and credit packs, when available, are billed in US dollars through Stripe. Taxes may be added where required.

• Subscriptions renew automatically each month or year until you cancel. You can cancel at any time; your plan keeps working until the end of the period you have paid for. We don’t give pro-rated refunds for the rest of a period.
• Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, your plan stays active for a short grace period (currently 3 days) while you update your card; after that the account moves to the free plan.
• Pack refunds. You can get a refund for a one-off index credit pack within 14 days of purchase if less than 10% of it has been used. Check packs are not refundable, because the check is the product.

We may change prices for future periods and purchases. We will tell subscribers before a price change applies to them.

The API and the MCP server are part of your plan, with the rate limits shown in your plan (for example up to 60 MCP calls a minute per key). Keep keys secret and revoke any key you think has leaked. We may slow down or pause traffic that threatens the service for other customers.

You keep all rights to your pages, links and data. You give us permission to process them only to run the service for you, including sending URLs to indexing and search-data providers. Client reports are shared only through links you create; you are responsible for who you share them with, and you can revoke a link at any time.

You can stop using FreshlyCited and ask us to close your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, puts the service or other customers at risk, or is required by law to be closed. Where we can, we will tell you first and give you a chance to fix the problem.

FreshlyCited is provided “as is”. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses such as lost profits, lost traffic or lost rankings, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the three months before the claim cap to confirm with legal. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law.

We may update these terms. We change the date at the top when we do, and we tell account holders by email before a material change takes effect. If you keep using FreshlyCited after that, the new terms apply.

These terms are governed by the laws of jurisdiction to confirm, and disputes go to the courts there, unless the law where you live gives you other rights.
