Terms of Service

Last updated: 26 August 2026

These Terms have two parts. Part A sets out the general terms for everyone who uses the website and free showcase. Part B adds subscription terms for account holders and paid users. Negotiated enterprise agreements (a Master Subscription Agreement, order form and Data Processing Agreement) are handled separately.

Part A — General terms (everyone)

1. Who we are and what these terms cover

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and CommoVision B.V. (“CommoVision”, “we”, “us”), a Dutch private limited company with its registered office at Waldenlaan 91, 1093 NH Amsterdam, Netherlands, registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 98777300. You can also reach us at contact-us@commovision.com.

These Terms govern your use of our website and our data service (the “Service”). By accessing the website or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use them.

2. Who may use the Service

The Service is offered to businesses and professionals acting in the course of their trade, business or profession. It is not directed at consumers. By using the Service you confirm you are using it for business purposes and that you are authorised to bind the organisation you act for. You represent that neither you nor the organisation you act for is designated on an EU or UN sanctions list, or owned or controlled by a designated person, and that you will not use the Service in breach of applicable export-control law.

3. Definitions

• “Data” — the oil-and-gas well, permit, completion, production, forecast and related datasets, and any charts, metrics, forecasts or other output we make available through the Service.
• “Content” — everything on the website and in the Service, including the Data, text, software, design and trademarks.
• “Account” — a registered user account for the paid or trial Service (Part B).

4. The website and free content

We may make part of the Data and other Content available on the public website free of charge. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to view and use it for your own internal business use and personal reference. You are also welcome to share and republish charts, screenshots and headline figures from our public pages — including in articles, newsletters and social media — provided you attribute CommoVision and, where you publish online, link to the source page. What you may not do is systematically copy, scrape, harvest or republish the website or the underlying Data (see Sections 5 and 6).

5. Intellectual property and database rights

All Content is owned by CommoVision or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark and the EU sui-generis database right (databankenrecht, Directive 96/9/EC / Dutch Databankenwet). CommoVision is the maker of the CommoVision database and has invested substantially in obtaining, verifying and presenting it — the cleaning, standardisation, reconciliation, quality-control and presentation that turn scattered public records into a coherent dataset.

Accordingly, you may not extract and/or re-utilise the whole or a substantial part (evaluated qualitatively or quantitatively) of our database, nor repeatedly and systematically extract or re-utilise insubstantial parts in a way that conflicts with our normal exploitation of it or unreasonably prejudices our interests. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership to you.

Attribution to sources. Some Data is derived from third-party and public sources, which we attribute on our third-party-sources page. Your use of the Data must preserve any attribution we display.

Feedback. If you send us suggestions or feedback, we may use them freely without obligation to you.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• scrape, crawl, spider, or use automated means to access the website or Service, except (a) through an interface we provide for that purpose (e.g. our API under a paid plan), or (b) ordinary search-engine and AI crawlers reading publicly available pages in accordance with our robots.txt and published crawl signals — which in no case permits extracting or re-utilising the underlying Data contrary to Section 5;
• circumvent, or attempt to circumvent, any access control, rate limit, or security measure;
• resell, sublicense, redistribute, or make the Data available to any third party, or use it to build or train a competing dataset or product, except as a plan expressly permits;
• reverse-engineer or attempt to derive source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by mandatory law;
• use the Service unlawfully, to infringe others’ rights, or to transmit malware;
• use the Service in breach of applicable sanctions or export-control laws; or
• misrepresent your identity or your authority to act for an organisation.

7. The Data is provided “as is” — no warranty of accuracy

We compile the Data from public regulatory records, third-party providers and our own processing, modelling and forecasting. We work hard to make it accurate, complete and timely, and we describe our methods and provenance openly. But we do not warrant that the Data is accurate, complete, current, or fit for any particular purpose, and the Service and Data are provided “as is” and “as available”, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

In particular:

• Some Data is estimated, allocated, inferred or forecast rather than reported. We flag provenance where we can, but you must form your own view before relying on it.
• Source records contain errors, gaps and revisions outside our control.
• The Data is not investment, trading, financial or professional advice. Any decision you make — including trading or investment decisions — is your own responsibility, and you should not rely on the Data as the sole basis for such a decision.

8. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• We exclude all warranties, conditions and terms not expressly set out in these Terms.
• We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of trading or investment gains, loss of business, or loss of data.
• Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Service and these Terms is limited to the total fees paid or payable by you that are attributable to the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or EUR 500 (or the equivalent in your billing currency) if that is greater.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for intent (opzet), deliberate recklessness (bewuste roekeloosheid) or gross negligence (grove schuld) on our part or that of our management, or for death or personal injury caused by our negligence.

9. Indemnity

You will indemnify us against third-party claims, and the losses and reasonable costs arising from them, to the extent caused by your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Service or Data. We will notify you promptly of any such claim and, at your request, let you conduct its defence and settlement, provided no settlement admits liability on our behalf without our consent.

10. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms and any non-contractual obligations arising from them are governed by Dutch law. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, without prejudice to any mandatory statutory forum.

11. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms. We will post the updated version with a new date and, for account holders, take reasonable steps to notify you of material changes. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them; if you do not accept, stop using the Service (and, for paid plans, you may cancel per Section 16). Where a material change is adverse to you, it applies to your existing paid subscription only from the start of its next renewal term.

12. General

If any provision is unenforceable, the rest stands. Our not enforcing a term is not a waiver. Neither party is liable for failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control (force majeure). You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign or transfer them to an affiliate, or to a successor or acquirer in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and you give your cooperation in advance to such a transfer for the purposes of article 6:159 of the Dutch Civil Code. These Terms (plus, for paid users, your Plan details and our Refunds & Cancellation policy) are the entire agreement between us.

Part B — Subscription terms (account holders and paid users)

Part A applies to everyone; Part B adds the following for anyone who registers an Account, starts a trial, or subscribes.

13. Accounts

You must provide accurate registration details and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your Account. Tell us promptly at security@commovision.com if you suspect unauthorised use.

14. Plans, fees, billing and taxes

• The Service is offered on the plans and prices shown at sign-up or in your order (the “Plan”). Some Plans meter usage (for example by records consumed or API calls).
• Fees are exclusive of VAT and other taxes, which we add where applicable. For business customers in the EU outside the Netherlands, the reverse-charge mechanism may apply where you provide a valid VAT identification number.
• Unless your Plan states otherwise, fees are billed in advance and are non-refundable except where these Terms or mandatory law require otherwise. See our Refunds & Cancellation policy.
• We may change prices for a renewal term on at least 30 days’ prior notice, except where we have agreed with you — in your Plan or otherwise in writing — that your rate is fixed for your commitment term or is grandfathered.

15. API, MCP and usage limits

If your Plan includes API or MCP access, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use it for your own internal business use, subject to the rate limits and quotas of your Plan and to Section 6. Retrieving Data at scale within your Plan’s quotas is what the API is for; what you may not do is share credentials, exceed your quota by technical means, redistribute or resell the Data to third parties, or use it to build or train a competing dataset or product.

16. Term, renewal and cancellation

• Subscriptions run for the term shown in your Plan and, unless stated otherwise, renew automatically for successive terms until cancelled.
• You may cancel effective at the end of the current term via your account settings or by contacting us. Cancellation stops future renewals; it does not by itself entitle you to a refund of the current term.

17. Trials

If we offer a free trial, we may set its scope and duration and may change or withdraw trial availability. The Service during a trial is provided “as is” with no warranties and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Data from a trial may be deleted when it ends.

18. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your Account or access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or other users. Where practical and lawful we will give notice and an opportunity to cure. On termination your licence ends and you must stop using the Data; Sections that by their nature survive (IP, disclaimers, liability, governing law) continue.

19. Availability and support

We aim to keep the Service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation at the self-serve tier and provide no formal service-level commitment (SLA) unless expressly agreed in a separate written agreement. Support is provided on a reasonable-efforts basis through the channels we publish.

20. Data protection

Our handling of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy. For the self-serve Service, CommoVision acts as controller of your account, billing and usage data; the Service is a data-provider and does not process personal data on your behalf as a processor at this tier, so no separate Data Processing Agreement is required for standard use. Enterprise customers that require a Data Processing Agreement, security schedule or a negotiated order form should contact us — those are handled under a separate written agreement.
