Terms of Use

Effective 2026-10-17

These terms apply to your use of awardwatchdog.com and its email digests (the "Service"), operated by AwardWatchdog ("we", "us"). By using the Service you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

1. What the Service is

AwardWatchdog organizes publicly available federal contracting information, mainly from SAM.gov Contract Opportunities and USAspending.gov, so small businesses can find relevant opportunities faster. Browsing is free. We may add, change or remove features at any time.

2. Data is provided as-is

Listings, counts, dates, award amounts, recompete estimates and other data are compiled automatically from government sources and may be incomplete, delayed, out of date or wrong. Notices change through amendments and cancellations that we may not capture. The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Always confirm details, amendments and deadlines on the official notice at SAM.gov before relying on them.

3. No government affiliation

AwardWatchdog is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by SAM.gov, the General Services Administration (GSA), the Small Business Administration (SBA) or any other government agency.

4. Not legal or procurement advice

Our pages and guides are general information. They are not legal, procurement, accounting or business advice, and using the Service does not create any professional relationship. Rules change, so check the official sources we link to and get qualified advice for your situation, for example from an APEX Accelerator, an SBA resource partner or an attorney.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We may block access or remove subscriptions that break these rules.

6. Our content

The underlying government records are public. The site's design, text, guides, compilations and code are ours, and you may not copy them wholesale. Quoting short excerpts with a link back is fine.

7. Sponsor and teaming listings

8. Third-party sites

We link to SAM.gov, USAspending.gov, SBA.gov, Acquisition.gov and other sites we don't control. We aren't responsible for their content or availability.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, AwardWatchdog and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, contracts, bids or data, arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Service or any information on it, even if we were told such damages were possible. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or US $100. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.

10. Indemnity

If you misuse the Service or break these terms, and that leads to a claim against us, you agree to cover our reasonable losses and costs from that claim.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. We will post the new version here with a new effective date. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Virginia, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

13. Other

If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Not enforcing a term is not a waiver of it. These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
