Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of VCP Scanner. Please read them carefully — they include important limitations on liability and a disclaimer that nothing here constitutes financial advice.

Effective Date: April 10, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using vcpscanner.com and all subdomains operated under it (“the Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Platform. You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account.

The Platform is operated by VCP Scanner, founded by Anish Das (“we,” “us,” or “our”).


2. Description of Service

VCP Scanner is a free US stock screener and financial analysis platform. It provides stock screening tools, quantitative valuation models, technical analysis, price and financial history, market news, and thematic research for US-listed equities — all for informational and educational purposes only.

VCP Scanner is not a registered investment advisor (RIA), broker-dealer, financial planner, or fiduciary. The Platform does not execute trades, manage investment portfolios, hold securities, or provide personalized investment advice of any kind.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Platform at any time, with or without notice, without liability to you. Because the Platform is free, there is no contractual obligation to maintain any specific feature or level of service.


3. Not Financial Advice — Important Disclaimer

Nothing on VCP Scanner constitutes investment advice, a recommendation, a solicitation, or an offer to buy, sell, or hold any security.

All fair value estimates, quantitative screening signals, screening results, F-Score outputs, price targets, DCF estimates, relative valuation outputs, earnings estimates, and any other computed scores or signals are the output of automated quantitative models running on publicly available data. These outputs are:

  • Inherently uncertain and based on assumptions that may prove incorrect
  • Subject to data errors, data delays, and model limitations
  • Not tailored to your individual financial situation, risk tolerance, or investment objectives
  • Not a substitute for independent analysis or consultation with a licensed professional

Past performance of any stock, strategy, or screening signal displayed on the Platform does not guarantee future results. All investments involve risk, including the potential loss of principal.

You are solely and entirely responsible for your own investment decisions. VCP Scanner, its operator, and contributors bear no liability whatsoever for any financial loss or damage arising from your use of Platform data, signals, or analysis.


4. Data Sources & Accuracy

Financial data displayed on the Platform is sourced from SEC regulatory filings (10-K and 10-Q via EDGAR XBRL), publicly available exchange feeds, analyst consensus data, and licensed institutional market data providers. While we process this data carefully, we make no warranty of any kind regarding its completeness, accuracy, timeliness, or fitness for any particular purpose.

Data may be delayed, contain processing errors, or reflect restated figures published by the original source after our last update. Forward-looking estimates involve significant uncertainty and actual results may differ materially from any projection displayed on the Platform.

Always verify data against official source documents (SEC filings, company investor relations pages, exchange data) before making financial decisions.


5. Acceptable Use & Prohibited Conduct

You agree to use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You must not:

  • Scrape or harvest data — use automated tools, bots, scripts, crawlers, or any method to extract, copy, or aggregate data from the Platform in bulk without our prior written consent
  • Commercial redistribution — resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute Platform data, signals, or model outputs without our prior written consent
  • Systematic API abuse — make excessive automated API calls or attempt to reverse-engineer or extract our underlying data pipelines
  • Interference — attempt to disrupt, disable, overload, or impair the Platform or its infrastructure (including DDoS attacks, vulnerability scanning, or unauthorized access attempts)
  • Misrepresentation — represent Platform outputs as licensed financial data products, registered investment advice, or the work of a licensed financial institution
  • Unlawful use — use the Platform for any purpose that violates applicable US federal or state law, including securities law

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for any account that violates these conditions, at our sole discretion, without prior notice.


6. User Accounts

Creating an account requires signing in via Google OAuth. By doing so, you represent that you are at least 18 years old and that the Google account you use belongs to you.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account session and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at [email protected] if you believe your account has been compromised.

We reserve the right to terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in prohibited conduct, or remain inactive for an extended period.
