Terms of Service

Last updated: April 22, 2026

The short version

Kortlist is free to use. Make boards, score, share — no account needed. For the optional URL Scan feature, sign in with Google. Each account gets 10 complimentary scans a month; extras can be purchased as one-time packs that never expire. Your boards stay on your device.

Kortlist is owned and operated by MB Local Ghost, a limited liability company registered in and operating within the European Union. By using Kortlist you are entering into an agreement with MB Local Ghost. Everything below is the long version.

Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using Kortlist ("the Service"), available at kortlist.eu and app.kortlist.eu, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

What you get

Kortlist is a side-by-side table for decisions: options are columns, the parameters that matter are rows, you score each cell. It runs in your browser and installs as a PWA on desktop and mobile.

Today, the Service offers:

Your data stays on your device

All boards, items, parameters, and scores you create in Kortlist are stored locally in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers. Sharing a board encodes it into a URL that you control — we don't hold a server copy.

The flip side: we can't recover boards you haven't shared or exported. We literally don't have them. If a board matters to you, keep a copy.

Account and sign-in

You can use Kortlist without an account. If you choose to use the optional URL Scan feature, you will be asked to sign in with Google. The data we store in association with an account is described in our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for maintaining the security of the Google account you sign in with and for any activity that occurs under your Kortlist account as a result.

Free tier

The core of Kortlist — building, scoring, ranking, and sharing boards — is provided free of charge and is offered "as is". Each account also receives a monthly allowance of complimentary scans (currently 10 per month, automatically renewing).

We may modify, add, remove, or gate free-tier features — including the size and conditions of the complimentary scan allowance — at our discretion and without prior notice. Continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of them.

Premium scan packs

Additional scans can be purchased as one-time scan packs. Scan packs are a non-subscription, prepaid credit applied to your Kortlist account.

Payments are processed by Stripe. Applicable EU VAT is added at checkout based on your billing country.

Right of withdrawal (EU consumers)

Scan packs are digital content supplied on a non-tangible medium and are credited to your account immediately after purchase. By completing a scan pack purchase you expressly request immediate performance and acknowledge that your right of withdrawal under Article 16(m) of the EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU) is lost once delivery has begun.

None of this affects your rights if something is genuinely broken. If a pack didn't credit, or a scan clearly failed on our end, email info@kortlist.eu and we'll sort it out.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Service, or to revoke remaining scan credit, for accounts that violate these terms.

Availability and changes

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service at any time. We are not liable for any loss resulting from changes to, or unavailability of, the Service.

Disclaimer of warranties

Kortlist is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that URL Scan output will be accurate or complete. Scoring and ranking results are a tool for your decisions — you remain responsible for the decisions you make based on them.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, MB Local Ghost and its officers, employees, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, Kortlist.

Governing law

These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the European Union and the applicable national laws of the jurisdiction in which MB Local Ghost is registered.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes will be reflected by an updated "last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
