Terms for using this site

These terms apply to Columbia SC Counselor Guide, an independent directory of counselor businesses in Columbia published by Columbia SC Counselor Guide. Every score on the site is computed from public review data using one published rubric (see scoring method); no business pays to be listed or scored. Using the site means you accept these terms.

No endorsement

Nothing on this site is a recommendation to engage any particular business. Scores summarise public review data; they are not a promise about the service you will receive. Check the details that matter to you directly with the business before engaging it. We aim for accuracy but do not guarantee the information is current, complete, or free of errors.

How this site earns

The site may earn referral fees when enquiries are routed to listed businesses or partners. Scores and rankings are unaffected by any of that: they are produced by the same published rubric for every business, and payment cannot move them.

Corrections, disputes, and removals

Businesses listed here can request corrections, dispute a listing or score, or ask to be removed. The listing policy explains how each request works and what to include.

Using the site

The site is for finding and contacting counselor businesses. Do not scrape or bulk-copy the compiled content, send fake or misleading form submissions, attempt to disrupt how the site runs, or use it for anything unlawful.

Ownership of content

The compiled directory, editorial text, scores, and presentation are owned by Columbia SC Counselor Guide. The underlying reviews belong to their authors and remain on the platforms where they were published; we store derived analysis, not review text. Business names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Liability

Columbia SC Counselor Guide provides the site as-is and, so far as the law permits, is not responsible for losses that follow from using it, relying on it, or hiring a business found through it. When you engage a listed business, that relationship is directly between you and the business. These terms do not exclude any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Applicable law

The laws of United States govern these terms. Disputes arising from them are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of United States.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms from time to time; the current version is always the one published on this page, with the date above. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. Questions about them can go to the publisher contact details on the about page.
