Businesses using the ReviewPoint platform agree to adhere to the Terms of Service of all major review sites. This includes but not limited to Google, Facebook, Yelp, and other review sites.
You acknowledge and agree not to use ReviewPoint to implement any form of review gating. Review gating is a process where companies send a message to customers asking if their experience was positive or negative.
When soliciting reviews using the ReviewPoint platform, businesses must provide all recipients the same options to provide feedback, regardless of their sentiment. This applies to review requests sent via standard review templates, custom email templates, and surveys.
You acknowledge and agree to use the ReviewPoint platform in full compliance with sites such as Yelp that prohibit review solicitation, and will not misuse the ReviewPoint platform to bypass review sites’ policies.
If a business attempts to circumvent the Terms of Service of third party review sites, ReviewPoint will notify the business and allow them 30 days take corrective action. Should the business fail to comply within the 30-day notice period, their account will be suspended from ReviewPoint.
