Simple terms for using Dot Archive.

1. What Dot Archive is

Dot Archive is an informational skincare product research site. It organizes public product information, ingredient signals, reviews, filters, and source-derived notes to help visitors find & compare products.

2. Not medical advice

Dot Archive does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment instructions. Product information, pregnancy-related screens, ingredient notes, filters, pros, and cons are educational only. Always read the product label and consult a qualified professional for medical conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies, or ingredient restrictions.

3. Product information may change

Skincare formulas, product names, prices, retailers, images, availability, and regional labels can change. Dot Archive aims to be useful and careful, but it cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current, or error-free.

4. Third-party links and retailers

Dot Archive may link to brand, retailer, marketplace, or other third-party pages. Those sites are controlled by their own operators, not Dot Archive. If you buy a product through a third-party site, the purchase is between you and that third party.

5. No accounts or purchases on Dot Archive

Dot Archive currently does not offer user accounts, checkout, or purchases directly on the site.

Public machine-readable catalog endpoints are available at /api/v1/products, /api/v1/taxonomy, and /api/v1/schema for product discovery and schema review.

6. Use the site responsibly

Do not misuse the site, interfere with its operation, scrape it in a way that harms availability, bypass rate limits or abuse controls, or present Dot Archive content as medical, legal, or professional advice.

7. Changes

These terms may be updated as the site changes. Continued use of the site after updates means you accept the updated terms.
