The fine print

Terms of use

The ground rules for using Deals Meridian, in plain words. The central idea: we point the way, the store sells, and the store's page has the last word on price.

Deals Meridian Editorial TeamIn effect from

The short version

  • Deals Meridian is a free publication. We don't sell products, take orders or handle payments.
  • Prices, discounts, stock notes and coupons are dated examples. They can change or stop working without notice.
  • Anything you buy is a contract between you and the store, on the store's terms.
  • Italian law governs these terms, and your rights as a consumer where you live stay intact.

1. Scope

These terms cover your use of dealsmeridian.com ("Deals Meridian", "the site"). The site is published by CTAWeb Srls ("we", "us"), whose full company details are at the end of this page. Browsing the site means you accept the terms; if you disagree with them, please stop using it. No account or payment is needed to read anything here.

2. What we publish

Deals Meridian publishes buying guides, deal roundups and explanations of how online discounts, coupons, cashback and sales work. Guides are written for shoppers in general, from the sources described in how we pick, and can't take account of your needs, your budget or the rules of the country you shop from.

A "Best for" label is our editorial opinion about who a product suits, based on published information. It isn't a test result, a certification or a promise that the product will satisfy you. We don't buy or test the products we cover.

3. We are not the seller

We don't sell, stock, ship or repair any product, and we don't take orders or payments. When you click through to a store and buy, the contract of sale is between you and that store. Price, delivery, returns, the legal guarantee of conformity, the manufacturer's warranty, refunds and customer service are the store's responsibility, under its own terms and the law that applies to it. Read those terms, especially the return rules for discounted items, before you pay.

4. Prices and discounts

  • Dated examples. Every price on the site is the amount one named seller displayed on the date we give next to it. Prices can change at any moment, may differ by country, region, currency, account or device, and may not include tax, shipping or fees.
  • Discounts with a stated reference. A discount badge always names what it is compared with, for example "below the seller's list price". That reference price is the one the seller publishes; we don't check a seller's pricing history beyond what it or a price tracker shows, and we don't present any "was" price we can't verify as the product's former price.
  • No availability guarantee. We can't promise that a product, color or size is in stock, or that a store will ship to you.

The price, the discount and the total shown on the store's checkout page are the ones that count. If they differ from our page, the store's page applies, and we'd be grateful if you told us.

5. Coupons, promo codes and cashback

Codes we list were made available by a store or by its affiliate network. They may expire early, be limited in number, exclude some products or brands, require a minimum spend or an account, or work only in certain countries. Cashback offers depend entirely on the rules of the service that pays them. We don't guarantee that any code or offer will be accepted, and a refused code is a matter for the store.

Many links to stores are affiliate links: if you buy after clicking one, the store may pay us a commission, and your price stays the same. Pages paid for by a brand or written to promote a single offer are labeled "Advertisement" above the title. The affiliate disclosure explains both in full.

7. Other websites and trademarks

Links to other websites are there for your convenience. Those sites are run by others, and what they publish, offer or do with your data is outside our control and responsibility. Every brand, product name, logo and trademark on Deals Meridian is the property of its owner; naming them doesn't mean the owner endorses Deals Meridian, or that we endorse the owner.

8. Our content

CTAWeb Srls owns the text, tables, product drawings, logo, lettering and page design of Deals Meridian. Cover photos are used under the license of their source, which each guide credits. You're welcome to read and print pages for personal use, share links and quote brief passages with a link to the page. Copying whole guides, republishing our price tables or scraping the site in bulk, including to build datasets or train AI models, needs our written permission. Normal indexing by search engines is fine.

9. Fair use of the site

Please don't attempt to break into our servers, test them for weaknesses without permission, flood them with requests or use the site as a vehicle for malware or spam. Security problems can be reported to info@dealsmeridian.com; we'll look into them quickly.

10. Accuracy and liability

We check our information with care and correct mistakes when we find them, but the site is offered as it is, and we can't promise it will always be complete, current, error-free or online. Within the limits allowed by law, we are not liable for losses arising from relying on a price, a discount, a code or a stock note shown on the site, or from a purchase made at a third-party store.

These limits never cover fraud, intentional wrongdoing or gross negligence, for which Italian law (article 1229 of the Civil Code) doesn't allow liability to be excluded, and they never reduce the protection that Italy's Consumer Code (Legislative Decree no. 206 of 2005) gives you as a consumer, or the mandatory consumer rules of the country where you live.

11. Law and courts

These terms are subject to Italian law. A consumer's dispute goes before the court of the place where the consumer lives or is domiciled, as the Consumer Code requires, and readers living outside Italy also retain whatever mandatory consumer rules their own country imposes. In any other case the court with jurisdiction over our registered office decides. An email to info@dealsmeridian.com solves most problems faster than any court, so please try that first.

12. Changes

We may revise these terms when the site changes. The date at the top of this page shows the version in force, and the version published when you visit is the one that applies.
