Terms of Use
Last updated: September 16, 2026
1. Purpose of the service
pluginfinder.ai (the “Website”) is a free service that helps users choose audio software (plugins, virtual instruments, sample libraries). Based on the user's answers to a series of questions, the Website suggests products published and sold by third-party partner merchants (the “Partners”).
The Website is a recommendation and referral service. It does not sell any products, does not process any payments, and is never a party to the transaction between the user and the Partner.
2. Acceptance and access
Use of the Website constitutes full acceptance of these Terms of Use. Access to the Website is free of charge. CIEL NOIR SAS strives to keep the Website continuously available but cannot be held liable for any interruption, maintenance or malfunction, whatever the cause.
3. Affiliate links
Links to Partner products are affiliate links: when a user makes a purchase after clicking one of these links, CIEL NOIR SAS may receive a commission from the Partner. This commission involves no extra cost for the user.
Recommendations are produced by a matching engine based on the user's answers and the Partners' catalogues.
4. Prices, availability and product information
Prices, discounts, artwork, descriptions and availability displayed on the Website come from data provided by the Partners and are given for information only. They may change at any time. Only the information shown on the Partner's website at the time of purchase is binding. CIEL NOIR SAS cannot be held liable for any price difference, expired promotion or unavailability found on the Partner's website.
Recommended products are published by third parties. CIEL NOIR SAS gives no warranty as to their quality, compatibility or fitness for the user's needs; final verification (system requirements, plugin format, licensing) is the user's responsibility before any purchase.
5. Newsletter
Subscribing to the newsletter is optional and based on the user's consent, given by voluntarily entering their e-mail address. It provides occasional information about promotions, new releases or free tools offered by the Partners. Users may unsubscribe at any time via the link included in every e-mail or by writing to [email protected]. The processing of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.
6. Intellectual property and content
All elements of the Website — structure, visual identity, texts, logos, recommendation engine, database, and all media displayed (images, product artwork, descriptions) — are protected by intellectual property law. Any unauthorized reproduction, representation, extraction or reuse, in whole or in part, is prohibited and constitutes infringement.
Product artwork, images, names and descriptions belong to their respective publishers and rights holders. This content is displayed with the authorization of its rights holders, under the partnership and affiliate agreements between CIEL NOIR SAS and the Partners. Its presence on the Website grants users no right of use, reproduction or exploitation.
Any rights holder who believes that content infringes their rights may report it to [email protected] for prompt removal.
7. Liability
The Website contains links to third-party websites over which CIEL NOIR SAS has no control. CIEL NOIR SAS cannot be held liable for the content of those websites, their commercial practices, or any direct or indirect damage resulting from the use of the Website, the recommendations provided, or products purchased from the Partners.
8. Changes to these Terms
CIEL NOIR SAS reserves the right to amend these Terms of Use at any time. The applicable version is the one online on the date the Website is used.
9. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms of Use are governed by French law. Failing amicable resolution, any dispute relating to their interpretation or performance falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Paris, France.
