CORQ provides you with access to the Site, the App and to the Service subject to the following conditions. If you visit the Site, use the Service, or use software or App provided by CORQ, you acknowledge that you have read, and that you understand and agree to be bound by these terms of service (“Terms of Service”).

Certain areas of the Site (and App if available) and your access to or use of certain aspects of the Service may have different terms and conditions, standards, guidelines, or policies posted or may require you to accept additional terms and conditions (together “Additional Terms”). If there is a conflict between these Terms of Service and any Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will prevail with respect to your use of or access to that area of the Site, App, or Service.

2. SERVICE
Our editors in their own discretion review influencers on several social media platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube), select the most influential ones (“Influencers”) and create a CORQ profile for each of them. A CORQ profile shows you a profile of an Influencer, including but not limited to recent feeds, posts and pictures from different social media platforms (“Influencer Content”). A CORQ profile may also include analysis, and a score that is aimed at highlighting the relevance of each Influencer in a number of selected areas (the “CORQ Score”). Subject to UK laws (including defamation and privacy law), we make no representations or warranties, express or implied, as to the quality, accuracy, completeness or reliability of our analysis, CORQ Score and any CORQ profile of an Influencer. All content published on our Site or Service is selected, arranged and published at our sole discretion.
Please be aware that our Service and Site may change from time to time, at our discretion. We may temporarily suspend the Service for maintenance or otherwise, the Site or any features within the Service or the Site without liability to you.
