2. Description of Service

SearchFundMarket is an online marketplace that connects search fund entrepreneurs, investors, and business sellers. We provide a platform for listing businesses for sale, discovering acquisition opportunities, and facilitating introductions between parties. We do not act as a broker, advisor, or intermediary in any transaction. All negotiations, due diligence, and transactions are conducted directly between the parties involved.

  • You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

You agree not to:

  • Post false, misleading, or fraudulent information about a business or your identity.
  • Use the Platform for any unlawful purpose.
  • Harass, abuse, or harm other users through the messaging system.

6. No Financial or Legal Advice

SearchFundMarket does not provide financial, legal, tax, or investment advice. All information on the Platform is for informational purposes only. Listing data, valuations, and financial metrics should be independently verified. You should consult qualified professionals (including lawyers, accountants, and financial advisors) before making any acquisition or investment decision. The Platform does not guarantee the success of any transaction facilitated through the service.

7. Privacy and Data Protection

Your use of the Platform is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data in compliance with the GDPR and other applicable privacy laws.

8. Cookies

Browsing the Platform sets Google Analytics audience measurement cookies (_ga, _ga_G76GPGKS5K, 13 months at most), with no advertising, and no advertising cookie is ever used. Signing in to an account relies on the strictly necessary NextAuth cookies (request protection, return page, session), which end when you sign out. Stability is measured anonymously with Microsoft Clarity running without cookies. Details, legal basis and how to object are in the Privacy Policy.

9. Intellectual Property

All content, branding, design, code, and technology on the Platform are owned by Radif Partners or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

Under the GDPR, EU users have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, data portability and object to processing. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, in France the CNIL (cnil.fr), or the one of your country. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@searchfundmarket.com. We undertake to respond within 30 days.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SearchFundMarket shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Platform, including but not limited to losses resulting from transactions initiated through the Platform. The Platform is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

The publisher is not responsible for data loss, service interruptions, or damages to user equipment resulting from the use of the Platform.

You may delete your account at any time by contacting us. Upon termination, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately, and your personal data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of France. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Paris, France, after any attempt at amicable resolution. The potential invalidity of any clause shall not affect the remaining provisions.
