Content Usage & Fair Use Policy

Last updated: Q2, 2025

1. Purpose of Tender Matcher

Tender Matcher is a semantic matching tool that helps users identify relevant software products based on the content of tender documents. Users upload tender files, and the system compares them against publicly available product data from vendors such as ServiceNow, Oracle, IBM, and others.

2. Use of Publicly Available Content

Product information is collected from publicly accessible sources, including datasheets, whitepapers, and documentation pages. No OEM content is republished or publicly exposed. Product information is indexed for internal reference to support matching and relevance scoring.

3. Copyright and Ownership

All product documents remain the intellectual property of their respective owners. Tender Matcher does not alter, rehost, or distribute original files. Our use is limited to informational and matching purposes under fair use and transformative indexing.

4. Takedown Requests

OEMs or rights holders may request content removal by contacting us at:
📧 singhn9@gmail.com
Subject: “Content Removal Request”

Please include the original URL, a brief description, and proof of ownership. We respond within 5 business days.

5. User Responsibility

Users are responsible for uploading documents they are authorized to use. Tender Matcher does not retain or share uploaded content unless explicitly permitted by the user.

6. Contact

For any questions or concerns, please contact:
singhn9@gmail.com

7. Safe Harbor Notice

Tender Matcher operates under a good-faith belief that all content used for semantic matching is either:

• Publicly available on the internet without access restrictions
• Voluntarily uploaded by users with appropriate rights
• Used in a transformative, non-replicative manner that qualifies as fair use

No documents are republished or exposed in full. All content is indexed securely and used solely for internal reference. If you are a content owner and believe your material has been used inappropriately, please contact us at singhn9@gmail.com with the original URL, your ownership details, and a brief explanation. We will review and respond within 5 business days.

8. Legal Compliance and Jurisdiction

Tender Matcher is developed and operated in accordance with the laws of the Republic of India. We comply with the following:

• Information Technology Act, 2000 including intermediary liability protections (Section 79)
• Copyright Act, 1957
• Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020

We operate in good faith, with fair use principles applied to any referenced content. All disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Rourkela, Odisha, India.
