Contractor World Land Terms of Service

Last updated: November 6, 2026

Welcome to Contractor World Land. These Terms of Service ("Terms") apply to contractorworldland.com and all Contractor World Land content and products, including our podcast, videos, articles, newsletters, social media channels, podcast directory, and the Contractor World Land mobile app for iPhone and Android (together, the "Services"). Contractor World Land is operated by Contractor World Land LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company ("Contractor World Land," "we," "us," or "our").

By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Services.

1. Who We Are

Contractor World Land is a media company for contractors and skilled trades business owners. We publish podcast episodes, videos, articles, and resources about starting, running, and growing a trades business. Our content is available on our website, in our app, and on platforms including YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.

We also run a podcast directory and app that feature shows from other creators in construction and the trades.

2. Educational Purposes Only

Everything we publish, and everything published by shows in our directory and app, is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not legal, financial, tax, accounting, insurance, safety, or professional business advice.

Individuals and business owners should evaluate their own business strategies and identify any potential risks. The information shared is not a guarantee of success, and your results may vary. Before making decisions about your business, talk to a qualified professional who knows your situation, such as an attorney, CPA, or licensed insurance agent.

Licensing, permitting, tax, and labor rules vary by state and locality. What works in one state may not apply in yours. You are responsible for knowing and following the laws that apply to your business.

3. Your Account

You can listen in the app without an account. If you create one:

•        You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, to create an account or buy anything from us.

•        Give us accurate information and keep it up to date.

•        Keep access to your email and Apple ID secure. You're responsible for activity under your account. Tell us right away if you think someone else is using it.

•        One person per account. Don't create accounts for others without their permission, or create accounts in bulk or by automated means.

•        You can delete your account at any time in the app (Library, then the account icon, then Delete account) or by emailing us.

4. Using the App

License. We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the app on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, under these Terms. We keep all rights we don't expressly give you.

Podcast content. Shows in the app, other than our own, are made and hosted by independent creators. Episodes stream or download from each show's hosting provider. Shows, episodes, and features may change or be removed at any time, and we don't guarantee that any show or episode will stay available. Downloaded episodes are for offline listening in the app only.

Notifications. If you allow notifications, we'll send alerts such as new episodes from shows you follow. You can turn them off at any time in your phone's settings.

Updates. We may update the app to add, change, or remove features or to fix problems. Some updates may be required to keep using the app.

App stores. If you got the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play, these Terms are between you and Contractor World Land LLC, not Apple or Google. We, not Apple or Google, are responsible for the app and its content, maintenance, support, and any claims about it, including product liability, legal compliance, and intellectual property claims. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app. If the app fails to meet any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price, if any; Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app. You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You must also follow the app store's own terms of use. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you as they relate to the app.

5. Affiliate Links and Commissions

Some links in our content are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products and services we believe may be useful to contractors, but we don't guarantee any third-party product or service. Your purchase is a transaction between you and that company, and their terms apply.

We disclose affiliate relationships in line with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines.

6. Sponsored Content and Paid Placements

Some episodes, videos, and articles are sponsored. When a sponsor pays us or provides something of value, we'll identify that content as sponsored. Sponsors do not get to control our editorial opinions unless we clearly say otherwise. A sponsorship is not a guarantee or endorsement of every claim the sponsor makes, and you should do your own research before buying from any sponsor.

Paid placements in the app. Podcast creators can pay to feature their show in placements such as the Weekly Watch List. These placements are labeled "Sponsored." If you buy a placement:

•        We'll show your show in the placement for the dates we agree on, in the order we choose.

•        We don't guarantee any number of views, taps, plays, follows, or other results. We'll share the views and taps we measure.

•        We may decline or remove a placement that breaks these Terms or our Podcast Partner Terms, or that we believe would mislead or harm listeners.

•        Payment is due before the placement starts and is handled by our payment processor. Placements can be cancelled for a full refund until 30 days before the start date; after that, they're non-refundable unless we can't run them.

•        A specific written agreement or order for your placement controls if it conflicts with this section.

7. Podcast Guests, Partner Shows, and Their Views

Our podcast features contractors, business owners, and other guests. Opinions, advice, and claims shared by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of Contractor World Land. We don't independently verify every statement a guest makes, including claims about revenue, growth, results, or business practices.

The same applies to podcasts from other creators in our directory, app, and streams. Their views are their own, and we don't independently verify what they say. Including a show in our directory or app, or in a paid placement, is not an endorsement of that show.

Guests who appear on the podcast agree to the following:

•        Recording: Guests consent to being recorded in audio and video during the interview.

•        Use of recordings: Guests grant Contractor World Land a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive license to record, edit, publish, distribute, and promote the recording and any clips, transcripts, images, or excerpts from it, in any format and on any platform, now known or developed later.

•        Name and likeness: Guests allow us to use their name, voice, image, likeness, business name, logo, and biographical information in connection with the episode and in promoting Contractor World Land.

•        Editing: We may edit recordings for length, clarity, or quality, and we may decide not to publish an episode for any reason.

•        Guest responsibility: Guests are responsible for what they say. Guests agree not to share confidential information they don't have the right to share, or make false or defamatory statements about others.

•        No compensation: Unless we agree otherwise in writing, guests are not paid for their appearance.

Guests may also be asked to sign a separate guest release. If a separate signed agreement conflicts with these Terms, the signed agreement controls.

8. Our Content and Intellectual Property

All content we create, including podcast episodes, videos, audio, articles, graphics, logos, the app and its design, and the Contractor World Land name and brand, is owned by us or used with permission and is protected by copyright and trademark law. Copyright © 2026 Contractor World Land LLC. All rights reserved.

Podcasts from other creators in our directory and app belong to those creators. We use them with permission under our Podcast Partner Terms.

You may view, listen to, and share links to our content for personal, non-commercial use. You may not copy, re-upload, repost full episodes, resell, or use our content or branding commercially without our written permission. Short quotes with clear credit and a link back to the original are fine.

Copyright complaints. If you believe something in the Services infringes your copyright, email connect@contractorworldland.com with: your contact information; a description of the copyrighted work; where the material appears in the Services (such as the show and episode); a statement that you believe in good faith the use isn't authorized by the owner, its agent, or the law; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you're the owner or authorized to act for the owner; and your physical or electronic signature. We'll review and respond, which may include removing the material. We may remove shows or accounts of repeat infringers.

9. Comments and Submissions

If you post comments, send messages, submit questions, or pitch yourself as a guest, you give us permission to use, display, and share that submission in connection with the Services. Please don't submit anything you don't want made public.

If you submit a podcast to our directory or app, our Podcast Partner Terms govern that submission instead of this section.

You agree not to post content that is unlawful, harassing, hateful, threatening, defamatory, spam, or that infringes someone else's rights. We may remove any comment or submission at our discretion.

10. Acceptable Use

When using the Services, you agree not to:

•        Break any law or regulation

•        Copy, scrape, or redistribute our content or our directory data without permission

•        Try to hack, disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the website, the app, or our systems

•        Reverse engineer, decompile, or modify the app, except where the law allows it

•        Use bots, scripts, or other tricks to create fake plays, downloads, follows, views, or taps, or to otherwise inflate listening or placement numbers

•        Impersonate Contractor World Land, our guests, our partner shows, or our sponsors

•        Use the Services to send spam or unsolicited advertising

11. Third-Party Platforms and Links

Our content lives on, and links to, third-party platforms and websites like YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, podcast hosting providers, sponsors, and affiliate partners. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Your use of them is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

12. Suspension and Termination

You can stop using the Services and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access to the Services, or remove your account, if you break these Terms, if we're required to by law, or if we stop offering the Services. If we end a paid placement because you broke these Terms, you won't get a refund. Sections that by their nature should continue, such as intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law, continue after termination.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Services, including the app, are provided "as is" and "as available." We do our best to keep things accurate, up to date, and working, but we make no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and we don't promise that the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any content, products, or services mentioned in them are accurate, complete, or reliable.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Contractor World Land and its owners, contributors, and guests will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, revenue, business, or data, arising from your use of the Services or reliance on any content, including content shared by guests, partner shows, sponsors, or affiliate partners. Our total liability for any claim related to the Services is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or $100.

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Contractor World Land and its owners from any claims, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Services, your submissions, any show you feature in a paid placement, or your violation of these Terms.

16. Privacy

Your use of the Services is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what information we collect, including in the app, and how we use it.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top, and for significant changes we'll let you know in the app or by email. Continuing to use the Services after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms. Changes to our Podcast Partner Terms follow the notice process described in those terms.

18. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any disputes will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Douglas County, Nebraska.
