Welcome to the G2.com, Inc. website. These terms, conditions, and notices (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the G2.com, Inc. website, including access and use through any other website or platforms or mobile applications, (“Site”).
Be sure to return to this page periodically to review the most current version of these Terms. We may modify these Terms or any additional terms that apply to this Site to, for example, reflect changes to the law or changes to this Site. We will notify you about material changes to these Terms by either sending a notice to the email address you provided to us and/or by placing a prominent notice of modifications to these Terms on this page. Changes will not apply retroactively and will become effective no sooner than fourteen days after they are posted. However, changes addressing new functions or features of this Site or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you should discontinue your use of this Site.
The terms “we”, “us”, “our” and “G2” refer to G2.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation located at 100 S. Wacker Drive, Suite 600, Chicago, IL 60606, United States. The term “you” refers to the person visiting this Site and/or contributing content on this Site. If you are accessing or using this Site on behalf of a business, that business accepts these Terms, and the term “you” also refers to that business.
This Site allows you to search for and share information about technology products, services, and vendors, communicate with others, and/or create new content such as recommendations and reviews (both written and video). You also can connect with software providers and request demos of their products. Find out more about our vision [here](https://blog.g2crowd.com/about/). To make sure that reviews are unbiased, current and real, we have developed Community Guidelines and use different mechanisms to verify that you are who you say you are. However, you decide what information you want to share with the public, since you have the option to post your reviews anonymously, or not post any review at all.
As a condition of your use of this Site, you warrant that (i) all information supplied by you on this Site is true, accurate, current, and complete, (ii) if you have a G2 account (“Registered User”), you will safeguard your account information and will supervise and be completely responsible for any use of your account by anyone other than you, and (iii) you are 18 years of age or older. G2 does not knowingly collect the information of anyone under the age of 18. We retain the right at our sole discretion to deny access to anyone to this Site and the content we offer, at any time and for any reason, including, but not limited to, for violation of these Terms.
Please be advised that all reviews, including any endorsements, of third-party products, services, or vendors contained on this Site are the opinions of the reviewers of those products, services, or vendors and not those of G2. As described in our Community Guidelines, G2 from time to time may provide incentives (such as gift cards) to encourage visitors to this Site to submit reviews. Any such incentives, however, are not dependent on whether the review is positive or negative.
The content and information on this Site (including, but not limited to, messages, data, information, text, music, sound, photos, graphics, video, maps, icons, software, code, or other material), as well as the infrastructure used to provide such content and information, is proprietary to us, except as expressly provided in these Terms. You agree not to otherwise modify, copy, distribute, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, license, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell or re-sell any such content or information obtained from or through this Site.

If G2 provides you access to such Interactive Areas (as a Registered User or otherwise), you are solely responsible for your use of such Interactive Areas and use them at your own risk. By using any Interactive Areas, you expressly agree not to post, link, upload to, transmit, distribute, store, create, or otherwise publish through this Site any of the following:
Any use of the Interactive Areas or other portions of this Site in violation of the foregoing violates these Terms and may result in, among other things, termination or suspension of your rights to use the Interactive Areas and/or this Site.
Without limiting the foregoing, G2 takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any content posted, stored, or uploaded by you or any third party, or for any loss or damage thereto, nor is G2 liable for any mistakes, defamation, slander, libel, omissions, falsehoods, obscenity, pornography, or profanity you may encounter. As a provider of interactive services, G2 is not liable for any statements, representations, or content provided by its users in any public forum or other Interactive Area. Although G2 has no obligation to screen, edit, or monitor any of the Content posted to or distributed through any Interactive Area, G2 reserves the right, and has absolute discretion, to remove, screen, or edit, without notice, any Content posted or stored on this Site at any time and for any reason, and you are solely responsible for creating backup copies of and replacing any Content you post or store on this Site at your sole cost and expense.
Please be aware that by submitting Content to this Site by postings or links on this Site, electronic mail, on a Chatbot, or otherwise, including any product or service reviews (whether written or video), questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, or the like contained in any submissions, (individually and collectively, “Submissions”), you grant G2 and its affiliates a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual (except as expressly provided in our Privacy Policy, transferable, irrevocable (except as expressly provided in our Privacy Policy), and fully sublicensable right to (a) use, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, distribute, publish, create derivative works from, and publicly display and perform such Submissions throughout the world in any media, now known or hereafter devised; and (b) use the name, email and other personal information, including your likeness, that you submit in connection with each such Submission. You acknowledge that G2 will only provide direct attribution of your Submissions with your permission or in order to cooperate with legitimate governmental requests, subpoenas, or court orders. You acknowledge and agree that no Submissions will include confidential or proprietary information of a third party or information that you otherwise are not allowed to disclose to the public. You acknowledge and agree that your Submissions, your name, email, and, if you include a photo in your profile or submit a video review, your likeness, and any other personal characteristics or private information you include with your Submissions, may be used by us, our affiliates, and our sublicensees through other websites (including advertising on such sites as described below), social media sites (including advertising on such sites as described below), platforms, mobile apps, and/or other marketing materials, such as slide decks or case studies, all as further described in our Privacy Policy.
With respect to reviews included in your Submissions (whether written or video), you will be asked at the time of your Submission whether you consent to the use of that review, and the name, email, likeness, and other personal characteristics and private information you include with your Submission, for advertising, promotion, and other commercial and business purposes. Your consent, if you indicate “yes”, means that:
If it is determined that you retain moral rights (including rights of attribution or integrity) in the Submissions or Content, you hereby declare that (a) you do not require that any personally identifying information be used in connection with the Submission or Content, or any derivative works of or upgrades or updates thereto; (b) you have no objection to the publication, use, modification, deletion, and exploitation of the Submission and/or Content by G2 or its licensees, successors, and assigns; (c) you forever waive and agree not to claim or assert any entitlement to any and all moral rights of an author in any of the Submissions or Content; and (d) you forever release G2, and its licensees, successors, and assigns, from any claims that you could otherwise assert against G2 by virtue of any such moral rights.
G2’s Chatbots are designed to generate responses (“Outputs”) based on inputs or prompts (“Inputs”). G2 does not guarantee accuracy of any Output generated by a Chatbot. Given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, and AI, use of Chatbots may result in an erroneous or non-sensical Output, and as such, you should not assume the accuracy of any Output. Furthermore, Output may not be unique across users, and Chatbots may generate the same or similar Output for other users. By using any of our Chatbots, you grant G2 and its affiliates a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, transferable, irrevocable, and fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, distribute, publish, create derivative works from, and publicly display throughout the world in any media, now known or hereafter devised, the Inputs and Outputs.
With respect to your use of any Chatbot, you agree to not:
You agree that any engagement, written or otherwise, you have with G2’s Chatbots can be sold, distributed, or otherwise shared at G2’s sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree that any engagement you have with any Chatbot is not confidential and is the property of G2. G2’s AI Terms & Conditions are incorporated into these Terms by reference.
