Agreement
By accessing or using Cookie Bench, you agree to these Terms of Use (“Terms”) and the Cookie Bench Privacy Policy (https://cookiebench.com/privacy) and Cookie Bench Cookie Notice (https://cookiebench.com/cookies).
If you use Inth accounts, billing, or hosted consent products, the Inth Terms (https://inth.com/legals/terms-and-conditions) and Inth Privacy Policy (https://inth.com/legals/privacy-policy) also apply to those services.
Order of precedence: these Terms → Cookie Bench privacy/cookie notices → Site UI copy, except that signed Inth commercial agreements control paid Inth services.
What Cookie Bench is
Cookie Bench publishes comparative information, scores, and related materials about consent-management and similar tools.
- Results are informational only.
- Results may be incomplete, outdated, or wrong.
- Cookie Bench is not legal advice, a certification, an audit opinion, or a warranty that any product is compliant in any jurisdiction.
- Cookie Bench is not a production consent-management service for your customers’ end users.
You must make your own evaluation and obtain your own counsel.
Primary markets
We operate the Site for audiences primarily in the United States (including California), the United Kingdom, and Europe. Mandatory consumer protections where you live may apply.
Licence to use the Site
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive licence to access and use the Site for internal evaluation and research.
You must not:
- scrape or bulk-export datasets in a way that degrades the Service or bypasses controls;
- redistribute substantial portions of benchmark databases except as we expressly permit (including any published API or download terms);
- attack or overload the Site;
- misrepresent Cookie Bench results as Inth’s certification of a third-party product;
- use automated means to manipulate scores or submissions.
We may rate-limit, block, or suspend access for abuse.
Accounts
The current Cookie Bench product schema may operate without end-user login. If we add accounts later, you must provide accurate information, secure credentials, and accept any additional account terms we post.
Submissions and uploads
If you submit benchmark data, configurations, feedback, or files:
- You grant Inth a worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, process, display, reproduce, and create derivative works from the submission to operate, secure, and improve Cookie Bench and related research.
- You represent you have all rights needed to submit the content and that submission does not violate law or third-party rights.
- Do not upload personal data, secrets, credentials, or confidential customer data. Benchmark payloads should be technical and non-personal.
- We may refuse, remove, or delist content at our discretion.
- Upload or “save” features may be disabled in production. Do not rely on upload availability.
Third-party products named on the Site
Cookie Bench may name, link to, or display assets related to third-party products (including competitors). Names and logos are property of their owners. Listing does not imply partnership, endorsement, or affiliation unless we say so expressly.
Third-party sites and tools are governed by their own terms. We are not responsible for them.
Acceptable use
You will not use the Site to violate law, distribute malware, harvest personal data, or attempt to reverse engineer non-public Site infrastructure except as allowed by mandatory law. You will not submit unlawful or infringing content.
Intellectual property
The Site, benchmarks methodology descriptions, and Inth/Cookie Bench branding are owned by Inth or licensors, excluding your submissions and third-party marks. No trademark licence except nominative fair use or written permission.
Feedback. Suggestions you send may be used by Inth freely without obligation.
Privacy and cookies
See the Privacy Policy (https://cookiebench.com/privacy) and Cookie Notice (https://cookiebench.com/cookies). The Site may use consent and measurement technologies as described there.
Disclaimers
THE SITE AND ALL BENCHMARK RESULTS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, INTH DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT SCORES ARE ACCURATE, COMPARABLE, OR SUITABLE FOR PURCHASING DECISIONS.
Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, INTH WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA.
INTH’S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED USD $50.
Nothing limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Note: Liability for paid Inth platform services is governed by the Inth Terms (https://inth.com/legals/terms-and-conditions), not this $50 Site cap.
Indemnity
You will defend and indemnify Inth against claims arising from your submissions, your misuse of the Site, or your publication of Cookie Bench materials in a misleading way, except to the extent caused by Inth’s wilful misconduct.
Suspension and changes
We may change benchmarks, remove products from catalogues, or discontinue the Site. We may update these Terms by posting a new version. Continued use after the effective date is acceptance where permitted by law.
Geographic scope, governing law, and disputes
Governing law. Delaware law (USA), excluding conflict-of-law rules, subject to mandatory UK/EU consumer protections and other non-waivable rights.
Informal resolution. Email legal@inth.com and seek good-faith resolution for 30 days before filing a claim.
Arbitration (US and business users). Binding individual AAA arbitration, class waiver, and procedures consistent with the dispute section of the Inth Terms (https://inth.com/legals/terms-and-conditions).
