Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-04-21. These terms govern your use of China LLM Directory.

1. Agreement

By accessing https://china-llm.com, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

2. What the site is

China LLM Directory is an independent editorial directory of Chinese LLM and AI infrastructure providers. We aggregate publicly-available pricing, benchmarks, and provider metadata and present them in comparison format. We are not a reseller, a broker, or an agent for any listed provider. Contracts, payments, service, and support are between you and the provider directly.

3. No warranty on directory data

Prices, benchmark scores, context windows, API compatibility, and all other provider facts published on this site are collected from public sources and refreshed on a best- effort basis. Providers change their pricing and products frequently. Always verify against the provider's official documentation before making a commercial decision.

The site is provided on an "as is" basis without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

4. Affiliate relationships

Some outbound links to providers are affiliate links — we may earn a commission if you sign up or make a purchase after clicking them. Commission status never affects our editorial rankings; see our Affiliate Disclosure and Editorial Independence Policy for full details.

5. Sponsored placements

A provider may pay for a "Featured" slot. Featured slots are always labeled "Sponsored" and do not alter default sort order on data surfaces (pricing matrix, benchmark rankings, comparison pages). See the Editorial Independence Policy for the exhaustive list of what Sponsored status can and cannot do.

6. Accounts

If you create an account, you are responsible for keeping your credentials secure. You may delete your account at any time by emailing hello@china-llm.com. We reserve the right to suspend accounts used for spamming lead forms, scraping the site beyond our published rate limits, or abusing affiliate tracking.

7. Your submissions

If you submit a provider listing, comparison request, or correction, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use it in connection with the site's editorial operation. You warrant that the submission is accurate and does not infringe any third-party rights.

8. Intellectual property

Site layout, editorial text, comparison matrices, logo, and aggregated data views are the property of the site operator. Provider logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only under nominative fair use. TODO(legal): confirm nominative-use scope for UK + EU.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, China LLM Directory is not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site, including but not limited to lost profits, data loss, or business disruption from reliance on published provider data. Total aggregate liability is capped at USD $100. TODO(legal): confirm cap enforceability in EU + UK.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of [TODO(legal): jurisdiction to be chosen with counsel — likely Singapore or Delaware given the site's global audience and operator base]. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction.

11. Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
