You agree to use the website for lawful purposes and not to use it in a way that could damage, disable, overburden, or interfere with the website or its services.

2. Information Is for General Informational Purposes

ExpatBird provides information for general informational and planning purposes only.

Our country reports, ratings, comparisons, cost estimates, Toolkit information, and other content are not guarantees of future conditions or individual experiences.

Information may change over time, including costs, exchange rates, visa and residency requirements, laws, regulations, healthcare conditions, safety conditions, infrastructure, and other circumstances.

You are responsible for independently verifying important information before making travel, relocation, immigration, financial, healthcare, legal, or other significant decisions.

ExpatBird is not a law firm, immigration consultancy, financial advisory service, medical practice, insurance provider, or other licensed professional service.

Information relating to immigration, residency, visas, taxes, healthcare, insurance, finance, laws, regulations, and related subjects should be independently verified with appropriate government authorities or qualified professionals.

4. Country Ratings and Editorial Opinions

ExpatBird ratings, scores, rankings, comparisons, and assessments represent editorial opinions based on information available to us at the time the material was prepared.

Ratings are intended as comparative planning tools and are not guarantees, predictions, or promises of an individual’s experience.

5. Free and Premium Content

Some ExpatBird content may be available free of charge, while other content may require a paid membership or subscription.

Premium content is intended for the individual member associated with the account and may not be copied, redistributed, resold, publicly posted, or shared with others without written permission from ExpatBird.

6. Accounts and Memberships

Certain ExpatBird services require an account. You are responsible for providing accurate information and for keeping your account credentials secure.

You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account and must notify us if you believe your account has been accessed or used without authorization.

7. Payments and Subscriptions

Paid memberships and subscriptions are processed through third-party payment providers, including Stripe.

You authorize the applicable payment processor to charge the payment method you provide for purchases and recurring subscription charges according to the terms shown at checkout.

8. Cancellation and Refunds

Subscription cancellation and refund eligibility are governed by the terms presented during purchase and any applicable refund policy published by ExpatBird.

Cancelling a subscription does not necessarily provide a refund for payments already processed unless a refund is otherwise required or offered under the applicable policy.
