Who we are
launchladder.lol (“launchladder”, “we”, “us”) is owned and operated by Aakash Pawar, an individual based in India. It is not a company or a registered business entity. You can reach us at hello@launchladder.lol.
Agreeing to these terms
These terms, together with the Privacy policy, Credits policy, Refund and cancellation policy and Review and disclosure policy, form the whole agreement between you and us about launchladder. If you do not agree, do not use the site.
We may update these terms. We post the new version here with a new date, and for material changes we also tell signed-in users by email or in the app at least 7 days before they take effect. Continuing to use launchladder after that means you accept the new version.
Who can use launchladder
You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter a binding contract under the law that applies to you. You may use launchladder for yourself or for a business you are authorised to act for; in that case these terms bind that business too.
You may not use launchladder if you are barred from receiving services under the laws of India or of the country you live in, or if we have previously closed your account.
Your account
You sign in with Google. One person may hold only one account. You are responsible for everything done through your account and for keeping your Google account secure. Tell us at once at hello@launchladder.lol if you think someone else has used it.
Your public handle must not impersonate anyone or mislead people about who you are.
What launchladder is
launchladder is a daily launch board. Makers list products for free, people visit, upvote and review them, and one product at a time can hold the #1 spot until the round ends at 9:30 PM IST each day. Taking #1 costs credits, as described in the Credits policy.
The outcome of a round depends only on what people do on the site: who takes #1 and when. Nothing is decided by chance, there is no prize, and credits can never be turned back into money. launchladder is a paid placement and feedback service, not a game of chance or a contest.
Products you list
You may list only products you own or are authorised to promote. Your listing must be accurate: a real product, a working https website and screenshots of the product itself.
You may not list anything that is illegal where you or your users are, malware or anything deceptive, adult or sexual content, gambling, weapons, drugs, content that infringes someone else’s rights, or products that impersonate another brand.
Rules for everything you post
Reviews, vote comments, replies, listings and profiles must be honest and your own. You may not:
- post generic, copied or machine-generated filler, or content written to game earning;
- harass, threaten, demean or discriminate against anyone;
- post personal data about another person, spam or links unrelated to the product;
- coordinate votes, reviews or takes with other accounts (vote rings or review swaps);
- use more than one account, or automate the site with scripts or bots;
- probe, overload or interfere with the site, or try to get around moderation, limits or security.
The Review and disclosure policy explains how moderation works.
Your content and the licence you give us
You keep ownership of what you post. You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display, format and distribute it on launchladder, in emails, notifications and share images, and in materials promoting launchladder that show the site.
Reviews, reigns, Hall of Kings entries and round records are part of the public record of each round. They stay after you delete your account, attributed to “deleted user”, and the licence continues for them. Everything else you posted is removed when you delete your account.
You confirm that you have the rights needed to give this licence and that your content does not infringe anyone’s rights.
Moderation, suspension and closing accounts
We may refuse, hide or remove any listing or post, stop an account from earning credits, or suspend or close an account, if we reasonably believe it breaks these terms, harms other users or exposes launchladder to legal risk. Where it is practical and lawful we tell you why.
If we close your account for breaking these terms, credits in it are forfeited, except where the law requires otherwise. If we close your account for any other reason, we will refund the unused credits you bought, pro rata to what you paid.
You can delete your account yourself at any time from your profile settings, except while you hold #1.
Reports and statements of reasons
Anyone can report content they believe is illegal or breaks these terms by emailing hello@launchladder.lol with a link and an explanation. We review reports promptly and carefully. When we remove or restrict your content or account, we tell you what we did, why, whether it was decided automatically, and how to ask us to review the decision; you can ask for a review by replying to that message. Users in the European Union also have the rights the Digital Services Act gives them, including out-of-court dispute settlement.
Credits and payments
Credits are bought through Dodo Payments, which acts as the merchant of record and processes your payment and any applicable tax. The Credits policy and the Refund and cancellation policy are part of these terms.
Our intellectual property
The launchladder name, logo, design, text and software belong to us. You may not copy, scrape, reverse engineer or reuse them, except to link to and share pages of the site. Product names and logos belong to their makers.
Copyright complaints
If you believe content on launchladder infringes your copyright, email hello@launchladder.lol with: your contact details; the work you say is infringed; the link to the content; a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you own or may act for the owner of the right; and your physical or electronic signature. We remove or disable content that is the subject of a valid notice and tell the person who posted it, who may send a counter-notice. We close the accounts of repeat infringers. This process is offered for notices under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act and similar laws elsewhere.
No promised outcome
Listing a product, receiving upvotes or reviews, or holding #1 does not guarantee traffic, signups, revenue, search rankings, Domain Rating or any other result. Reviews and votes are the opinions of other users, not ours.
Availability
We work to keep launchladder running but do not promise that it will always be available, timely or error free. We may change, pause or stop any part of it. If an outage or error affects a round (for example a take that could not complete), we may correct the round’s record and the credits involved so that no one gains or loses credits unfairly.
Disclaimer
launchladder is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability and non-infringement. We do not check or endorse the products listed on the site; you use them at your own risk.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from launchladder. Our total liability to you for all claims about launchladder is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for credits in the 12 months before the claim and USD 50.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
Indemnity
You agree to compensate us for claims, losses and reasonable costs, including legal fees, that arise from your content, the products you list or your breach of these terms.

General
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. If we do not enforce a right, we have not waived it. You may not transfer your account or these terms; we may transfer them to a new owner of launchladder, who will be bound by them, and we will tell you if we do.
