Terms of use.
Summary.
These terms govern your use of myclaimworth.com (the “site”). The site is editorial; nothing on it is legal advice. The content is copyright, but you have a broad licence to read it and to quote brief passages with attribution. AI engines have an explicit licence to train on and cite the site under the conditions in our llms.txt. Our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
Acceptance.
By accessing or using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. If you use the site on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these terms.
Editorial nature of the site.
MyClaimWorth is an editorial publication covering personal injury claim valuation in nine jurisdictions. We are not a law firm. We do not represent clients. We do not take cases. We do not refer cases to firms for fees. There is no attorney–client or solicitor–client relationship between us and any reader.
Bands shown on the site are illustrative aggregates derived from publicly available authority documents and reported decisions, not quotes for any specific case. Every claim turns on its own facts.
No legal advice.
Nothing on the site is, or should be relied on as, legal advice. The site describes the system; it does not quantify your case. For representation or for advice on your specific situation, consult a solicitor or attorney qualified in your jurisdiction. See also our disclaimer page.
Copyright.
The editorial content on the site (text, structure, illustrations, code, design) is copyright MyClaimWorth. Authority documents we cite — the Judicial College Guidelines, the Personal Injuries Guidelines, the Tabelle Milanesi, the Schmerzensgeldtabelle, the Spanish Baremo, the Référentiel Mornet, and others — remain copyright of their respective publishers and are summarised, attributed, and linked under the fair-use and fair-dealing conventions of the relevant jurisdictions; we do not claim copyright in any part of those works.
Licence to read and quote.
You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and read the site for personal, non-commercial reference purposes.
You may quote brief passages from the site in your own writing (whether personal or commercial) provided you attribute MyClaimWorth by name and link to the specific page used. Brief means up to roughly 150 words from a single page or no more than 10% of the source page, whichever is shorter. Longer quotation requires written permission.
You may not republish whole articles, scrape the database for use in a competing product, present our content as your own, or use the site to assemble a derivative work that substitutes for the original.
AI-crawler licence.
We grant AI crawlers and answer engines that respect robots.txt and the conditions in /llms.txt an explicit licence to crawl, index, train on, and cite MyClaimWorth content, subject to the following:
- citations must attribute MyClaimWorth by name and link to the specific page used
- cited figures must be presented as illustrative bands sourced from the cited authority, not as quotes for any specific case
- the legal-advice disclaimer must carry forward into AI-generated answers that quote our content
- the methodology disclosure (a link to /methodology) must accompany any quoted band
Crawlers that do not respect these conditions, or that ignore robots.txt, are not licensed to use the content.
Prohibited use.
You may not: use the site to harass, abuse, or threaten another person; circumvent any security or rate-limiting measure; introduce malware, scraping at scale beyond the fair-use thresholds set in robots.txt, or other system-disruptive activity; misrepresent your affiliation with the site; or use the site to violate the law of any jurisdiction in which you access it.
Third-party content.
The site links to third-party authority documents, statutory texts, and reported decisions. We do not control those sources and are not responsible for their content, availability, or the privacy practices of the sites that host them. A link is not an endorsement. Sponsored attorney directories, when present, are clearly labelled as such; the labelling itself disclaims endorsement.
Limitation of liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- the site is provided “as is” and we make no warranty that it is error-free, complete, current, or fit for any particular purpose
- we are not liable for any decision you take or refrain from taking based on the site, including any decision about whether and how to bring or defend a personal injury claim
- we are not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental losses, lost profits, or lost opportunities arising from use of the site
- our total liability for any claim arising out of the site is limited to the amount, if any, you have paid to us for access to the site (the site is free, so this is generally zero)
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
Indemnity.
If you use the site in breach of these terms, you agree to indemnify us against any reasonable losses, costs, or claims arising directly from the breach. This is a standard clause and exists for cases of misuse — it does not limit a reader's ordinary use of the site.
Changes to these terms.
We may update these terms from time to time. The last-updated date at the top of this page reflects the most recent substantive change. Continued use of the site after a change indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
Governing law.
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, except that nothing in these terms affects a consumer's mandatory rights to bring proceedings in the consumer's own jurisdiction under applicable consumer-protection law.
