Terms of service
Last updated November 6, 2026
These terms cover your use of AdViews, a service that runs Google searches and records the ads on the keywords and locations you choose and shows you what it found. By creating an account you agree to them on behalf of yourself and the workspace you create or join.
Your account and workspace
- You need a valid email address and must keep your password safe. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
- The owner of a workspace manages its members, clients, billing and deletion. Members and viewers act under the owner's plan.
- You must be old enough to enter a contract where you live, and use AdViews for business purposes.
What the service does, and doesn't
- Each search is one Google search for one keyword, location and device at one moment. Results are samples: an advertiser "seen on 18 of 30 searches" appeared in 18 of our 30 searches, not every time someone searched.
- We record Google Ads only (text, shopping and Local Services ads). Organic results aren't covered.
- Ad copy, headlines and callouts are what our searches observed, not an advertiser's complete set of assets. We don't guarantee that results are complete, current or identical to what any particular person sees.
- We fetch results through a third-party search provider. If it is unavailable, searches may be delayed or skipped; searches that fail are never charged.
Plans, credits and payment
- Plans include a number of searches a month. Every search uses one credit, whether or not ads are found.
- Payments are processed by Stripe as merchant of record, which handles tax, invoices and payment disputes. Prices are in US dollars; local taxes may be added at checkout.
- Plans renew automatically until cancelled. Cancelling stops renewal; the plan keeps working until the end of the period you paid for. See the refund policy.
- Yearly plans can be cancelled for a refund within 14 days of each yearly payment. The refund is prorated: we keep the share of the year for the days already used, and the payment processing fee Stripe charged, which Stripe doesn't return when a payment is refunded. If you're a consumer in the EU or UK, your legal right to withdraw comes first: we only deduct for days used if you asked at checkout for the service to start straight away, and we don't deduct the processing fee. Details are in the refund policy.
- The free trial is limited to one per person.
Acceptable use
- Don't resell raw access to the service, try to get around plan limits, or overload or probe the service.
- Don't use AdViews or its exports to break the law or anyone else's rights, including Google's and advertisers' trademarks.
- We may suspend an account that breaks these rules, after telling the owner unless the problem is urgent.
Your data
The keywords, clients and settings you add are yours, and you can export your results while your plan includes exports. How we handle personal data is described in the privacy policy. When an account ends, data is deleted on the schedule set out there.
Liability
AdViews is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability that can't be limited by law.
Changes
We may update these terms. For changes that matter, we'll email workspace owners at least 30 days before they take effect. Using AdViews after that means you accept the new terms.
Trademarks
