Terms of Service

The rules for using this site and for posting a review. They are written to be read, not to be survived - if something here is unclear, ask and we will say plainly what it means.

Last updated 14 November 2026.

1. What this site is

Diamond Painting Reviews publishes information and opinions about diamond painting manufacturers, wholesale suppliers and shops. We do not sell diamond painting products, take orders, ship anything, hold stock or act as an agent for any business listed. Nothing here is an offer, and no page creates a contract between you and us other than these terms.

2. Using the site

You may read, quote and link to any page. You may not scrape the site at scale, mirror it, republish whole profiles, or use automated tools to extract the review database. You may not attempt to break, overload or gain unauthorised access to the site or the servers it runs on, and you may not use the review or contact forms to send anything other than genuine submissions.

3. Reviews you post

By submitting a review you confirm that:

it describes your own experience with the business, as a customer or a trade buyer;
it is your own words and not copied from another site, a competitor's review page or an AI-generated template posted without your own experience behind it;
it is not posted in exchange for payment, a discount, a free kit or any other consideration, and you have no undisclosed interest in the business;
it contains no one else's personal information - no names of staff, no addresses, no order numbers, no email addresses, no photographs of other people;
it is not defamatory, abusive, obscene, discriminatory, or unlawful in the country you are writing from.

4. The licence you give us

You keep the copyright in your review. By submitting it you give us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual licence to publish, store, display and reproduce it on this site, and to quote a short extract of it (for example in a summary or a page description) with attribution. We may edit for length, spelling, formatting and the removal of links - never for meaning. You can withdraw the licence at any time by asking us to remove the review, and we will.

5. Moderation

Reviews are checked before they appear. We may hold, decline or remove any submission, and we are under no obligation to publish one. The usual reasons for holding a review are a link in the text or a submission that looks automated; the usual reasons for declining one are the exclusions in section 3. Removal of a negative review is not available to a business, and neither is acceleration up the ranking - see the methodology page.

Rating averages, review counts and the order of listings are recalculated from the reviews and visit counts actually recorded. They are not editorial choices and cannot be adjusted on request.

6. Businesses in the listings

If you run one of the businesses described here you are entitled to a factual correction and to a reply published next to the profile, both free of charge and both without conditions. Send the claim, the correction and a source we can check. You are not entitled to have a review removed because it is negative, to have a profile revised to marketing copy, or to appear anywhere in particular. We do not sell listings, positions, ratings or removals, and no payment has ever been accepted for any of them.

7. Accuracy and no warranty

Profiles are compiled from public information and reader reports. Minimum order quantities, lead times, prices, materials and shipping terms change constantly and are often out of date by the time you read them. Confirm the current terms with the business before you order. The site is provided as it is, with no warranty that it will be available, error-free or complete.

Reviews are the opinions of the readers who wrote them. We publish them, we do not adopt them, and we do not verify every factual claim inside one. Where a review makes a specific allegation we will consider it against the evidence if the business disputes it.

8. Outbound links

Every profile links to the business's own website so that anything we say can be checked. Those links are not endorsements and we are not responsible for the content, terms, security or privacy practices of any site we link to. We take no commission, affiliate fee or payment for them.

9. Our content

The editorial text, structure, design and branding of this site belong to us. You may quote a reasonable extract with a visible link back to the page it came from. Republishing a whole profile or a substantial part of one needs written permission.

10. Liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss arising from your use of the site, from a decision you make after reading it, or from your dealings with any business listed on it. That includes lost profits, failed orders, wasted materials and missed deadlines. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including for fraud, or for death and personal injury caused by negligence.

11. Changes

We may change these terms as the site changes. The date at the top is the date of the current version, and reviews are always judged by the version in force when they were submitted. If any part is found to be unenforceable, the rest stays in force.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong SAR, and disputes will be dealt with by its courts. Nothing in this clause removes the protection of mandatory consumer law in the country where you live.

13. Contact

Questions about these terms, a correction, or a removal request: use the contact form or email [email protected].
