Terms of sale

Terms of sale

These terms govern the sale of credits and subscriptions to the Pinperf service, published by 410-GONE.FR (see the legal notice). Placing an order constitutes acceptance.

Purpose of the service

Pinperf measures the ranking of a Google Business listing for a given keyword, from a given geographic point. The unit of the service is the tracking: one keyword on one measurement point, measured at the pace chosen by the customer.

The service measures and reports an observed ranking; it does not alter it and guarantees no search-engine result.

Prices and payment

Prices are shown on the pricing page in euros, excluding tax. Applicable VAT is added at the time of payment, according to the customer's country and, for businesses in the European Union, according to their intra-Community VAT number. Payment is made online by card. Credits are added to the account as soon as payment is confirmed.

An invoice is issued for every purchase and made available in your account. Billing details are requested after payment: they are required for a compliant invoice.

Credits, consumption and overage

Use of the service is counted in credits. What a tracking consumes depends on its cadence, according to the following scale, also published on the pricing page:

  • monthly tracking: 1 credit per month;
  • fortnightly tracking: 2 credits per month;
  • weekly tracking: 4 credits per month;
  • twice-weekly tracking: 8 credits per month;
  • daily tracking: 18 credits per month.

A measurement requested outside the scheduled run — a one-off audit — consumes one credit, whatever the cadence. A deactivated keyword or measurement point consumes nothing. A measurement that fails is not charged.

Validity period

Subscription credits are granted for the current month and do not carry over from one month to the next. Credits bought as a pack are valid for twelve months from the date of purchase; the customer is warned thirty days and then seven days before expiry. Credits acquired before 28 August 2026 carry no expiry date.

A subscription is monthly or annual, renewable, and can be cancelled at any time from your account; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period, credits already acquired remaining usable within the limits above.

Changing plan

The customer may change plan at any time from their account.

An upgrade takes effect immediately. The difference is charged pro rata for the remaining period. The month's quota is recalculated: it becomes the new plan's quota less the credits already consumed during the month, and is never negative.

A downgrade and a cancellation take effect at the end of the current period, which remains payable. No refund is made. Until that date, the customer keeps the full rights of the plan they paid for. A scheduled change may be cancelled at any time before it takes effect.

No data is deleted when a plan is downgraded. Listings, keywords and measurement points beyond the new plan's limits are paused: they stop being measured and stop consuming credits, but keep their entire history. The customer chooses which ones to reactivate within the limits of the new plan, and upgrading again restores them with no manual step. Pausing applies first to the most recently added listings.

Quota overage

When a subscription's monthly quota runs out, collection continues: an interrupted series of measurements loses its value. Credits consumed beyond the quota and beyond any purchased credits are charged at €0.05 excluding tax per unit, aggregated at the end of the period and shown as a separate line on the following invoice.

Overage is bounded by a ceiling the customer sets from their account, defaulting to half the monthly quota. Once that ceiling is reached, measurements are suspended and the customer is informed; they resume as soon as the ceiling is raised, the plan changes, or the following month begins. No data already measured is deleted. The Free plan gives rise to no overage.

Right of withdrawal

For a business customer, the right of withdrawal does not apply. For a consumer, since supply of the service begins immediately after payment, the fourteen-day right of withdrawal does not apply to credits already consumed; unused credits are refunded on request within that period.

Availability and liability

The service depends on third-party data sources. An outage may interrupt measurements; a measurement that does not complete is not charged. The publisher's liability shall not exceed the amounts paid over the last twelve months.

Governing law

These terms are governed by French law. Failing an amicable settlement, disputes fall to the competent courts of Lyon, France, for business customers.

Managing and monitoring Google Business Profiles

What the service does. Pinperf sends the changes entered by the customer to Google and displays what Google publishes. The service is neither the publisher nor the host of the Business Profile, which remains hosted and published by Google, under Google's own rules.

No guarantee that a change is applied. Google may refuse, delay, alter or replace a submitted value, without stated reason or deadline. The service does not guarantee that a change will be applied, when it will be applied, or that it will last.

Responsibility for the content. The customer remains solely responsible for the accuracy, the lawfulness and the updating of the information published on the Business Profile, and declares holding the rights and permissions required on the Google account connected to the service.

Manual checks. The content of the Business Profile must be checked manually and regularly by the customer. Monitoring is an aid to detection, not a guarantee of completeness or timeliness: checks run once a day, so a change may go unnoticed for up to twenty-four hours, and some changes may be neither detected nor reported.

Exclusion of liability. 410-GONE.FR cannot be held liable for the consequences of a change made through the service, including the suspension, merging, unpublication or loss of ownership of the Business Profile by Google, nor for the commercial consequences of incorrect information.

Revoking access. The customer may revoke this access at any time, from their Google account or from their workspace. Revocation immediately stops monitoring and editing, without notice.

Dependency on a third party. The service depends on a third-party API whose terms, quotas and availability are set by Google alone. Changes to them may suspend or limit the feature without entitling the customer to any compensation.
