By accessing or using GovAuctions (“the Service”), available at govauctions.app, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

GovAuctions is a free search and aggregation tool that indexes publicly available government surplus auction listings from third-party platforms such as GSA Auctions and HUD. We do not conduct auctions, process bids, handle payments, or facilitate the sale of any goods. All transactions occur directly on the originating auction platforms.

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service
  • Use the Service to transmit spam, malware, or other harmful content

4. Accounts and Email Alerts

You may create an account to save auction listings and receive email alerts. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

5. Paid Features

We offer an optional paid subscription (“Pro Plan”) for email alerts. Subscription fees are billed monthly. You may cancel at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not offer refunds for partial periods.

6. Third-Party Content

All auction listings displayed on GovAuctions are sourced from third-party government platforms. We make no representations or warranties about the accuracy, completeness, or availability of any listing. Always verify listing details directly on the originating platform before bidding.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
