Clear rules for a noisy web.
These MVP terms explain the intended boundaries of listings, verification, ranking, and paid distribution.
Listings and verification
Submitting a site does not guarantee inclusion. Ownership claims require proof, and traffic verification requires a connected source. SurgeIndex may suspend domains, accounts, or campaigns that violate the rules or create misleading signals.
Ranking and boosts
Organic rankings are generated from the published methodology. Boosts purchase clearly labeled sponsored distribution; they do not change organic rank, Heat Score, breakout status, ownership verification, or editorial claims. Sample pricing and demo delivery are not a live offer.
Impressions, clicks, and attribution
A qualified impression requires the configured viewability rule. Rendered cards, invalid events, clicks, valid clicks, tracker-confirmed visits, and engaged visits are separate metrics. Attribution is unavailable when the destination has no compatible tracker. No clicks, conversions, leads, sales, or inventory are guaranteed.
Campaign review, cancellation, and underdelivery
Creative may be rejected or suspended for prohibited, misleading, or mismatched content. Pause, cancellation, refunds, disputes, and underdelivery follow the published campaign policy and may require admin review. A shortfall is not silently marked complete.
Professional review
This page is product documentation for the MVP and is not legal advice. Before commercial launch, the service terms, acceptable use policy, advertising disclosures, payment/tax terms, refund policy, privacy notice, and jurisdiction-specific notices require professional review.
