Terms of Service

The rules for using Software Modernization Intelligence: our research, datasets, company listings and shortlist requests. Last updated .

Agreement to these terms

By using softwaremodernizationservices.com (the "Website"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Website. The Website is run by Motivato Sp. z o.o., Warszawa, Poland. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data.

What we provide

  • Research, guides and cost benchmarks on software modernization
  • Datasets, such as the Legacy Technology Tracker
  • Profiles and lists of modernization companies
  • Vendor shortlists, when you request one
  • A newsletter

Using the Website

You agree to use the Website only for lawful purposes. You may not:

  • Use it in any way that breaks applicable laws or regulations
  • Try to gain unauthorized access to our systems or user accounts
  • Interfere with or disrupt how the Website works
  • Submit false or misleading information, or claim a company listing you aren't authorized to manage
  • Access the Website with automated systems in a way our robots.txt disallows, or at a rate that burdens our infrastructure
  • Copy or republish our content or company data in bulk, except as a dataset's licence allows

Our research is not advice

Cost ranges, timelines and benchmarks are editorial estimates drawn from public sources, not quotes. Company information may change without notice, and we don't guarantee the accuracy of third-party information. Check the details with a company before you rely on them. Nothing on the Website is legal, financial or technical advice for your situation. Our methodology explains how we work.

Companies on the Website

We are an independent research publisher, not a modernization company. We decide which companies to include and how to describe them, and a listing is not an endorsement. Any engagement with a company is solely between you and that company: we are not a party to it and are not responsible for its work.

Content and datasets

The content on the Website, including text, data, graphics, logos and software, belongs to us or our content suppliers. You may read, link to and share any page, and quote limited excerpts with attribution and a link to the page you quote.

Our datasets are released under the licence stated on each dataset page, currently CC BY 4.0, which lets you copy, adapt and redistribute them, including commercially, if you credit Software Modernization Intelligence and link to the dataset page. Outside those licences, you may not reproduce, distribute or create derivative works from our content without our written permission.

What you send us

If you send us information, such as a company submission, a listing report or a shortlist request, you allow us to use it to run the Website and give you what you asked for. You are responsible for its accuracy. If you manage a company listing, you confirm that you are authorized to act for that company, and we may remove a claim or account that isn't.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Website and its content are provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising from your use of the Website, including any decision made on the basis of information on it.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Motivato Sp. z o.o. and its affiliates from any claims, damages or expenses arising from your use of the Website or your breach of these terms.

Links to other websites

The Website links to other websites for convenience. We don't control them and are not responsible for their content or practices.

Changes to these terms

We may change these terms at any time. Changes take effect when posted here, and the date at the top shows when that was. Continuing to use the Website after a change means you accept the new terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by applicable law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
