Disclaimer
Last updated: September 11, 2026
This page restates the disclaimers in our Terms of Service. It is not a new policy — it is the same disclosure, in one place for advertisers and readers.
Service status
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES. ANALYTICS RESULTS ARE BASED ON READER PANEL DATA AND ARE NOT GUARANTEES OF COMMERCIAL PERFORMANCE.
No affiliation with retailers
CoverCrushing is an independent platform. We have no affiliation, partnership, endorsement, or contractual relationship with Amazon, Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), IngramSpark, Draft2Digital, Smashwords, Barnes & Noble Press, Apple Books, Kobo, Audible, or any other book retailer, distributor, or publishing platform.
Results are private decision-support
Your test results, Crush Scores, vote counts, cover images, and other data generated through the Service are used to generate your analytics report. We do not share, sell, transmit, or report test results to Amazon, KDP, IngramSpark, or any other third-party retailer. Results have no effect on a book's ranking or visibility on those platforms.
Feedback, vote data, Crush Scores, and AI-generated recommendations are intended as personal insight. They reflect voter opinions at the time of testing and do not constitute professional design, marketing, or publishing advice. CoverCrushing does not promise increased sales or improved rankings.
Cover decisions stay with the author
The decision to use, modify, or discard any cover design based on test results rests entirely with you. CoverCrushing accepts no responsibility for commercial, creative, or reputational outcomes of that decision.
Votes may come from a combination of real human voters and algorithmically simulated reader profiles so tests can finish on time. By using the Service you acknowledge this methodology. Reader preferences are subjective; treat results as one data point among many.
