Terms of use

Last updated: 2026-09-18

By using PartVault (https://gathered.top) you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

1. Purpose of the service

PartVault publishes reference information about electronic components: specifications, lifecycle states, sourcing risk judgements and possible substitutes. The service is informational. No part of it constitutes an offer to sell components, a quotation, a certification, or a professional engineering opinion on your particular design.

2. Accuracy and your responsibility

Component data is transcribed and summarised by hand from manufacturer documentation, and manufacturers revise that documentation without notice. A figure that is correct today can be superseded tomorrow. You are responsible for verifying every number, every substitute and every lifecycle status against the current manufacturer datasheet, and for confirming that the part is suitable for your operating conditions, your thermal environment and any regulatory regime that applies to your product. Do not treat a substitution listed here as approved for safety-critical, medical, automotive, aerospace or life-support use.

3. No warranty

The site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, free of errors, or free of harmful components.

4. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operator of PartVault is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, nor for any loss of profit, revenue, data, production or goodwill, arising out of or connected with your use of the site or your reliance on its content — including, without limitation, damages arising from a component substitution, a design decision, a procurement decision or a production delay.

5. Acceptable use

• Do not scrape the catalogue at a rate that degrades service for other visitors, and do not attempt to bypass rate limiting or access controls.
• Do not republish substantial portions of the catalogue as your own content, whether verbatim or lightly rewritten.
• Do not use the site to distribute malware, to probe for vulnerabilities, or to gain unauthorised access to any system.
• Do not misrepresent the site's content as an official manufacturer publication.

6. Intellectual property

The editorial text, the catalogue compilation, the layout and the generated package drawings on this site are protected by copyright and belong to their respective authors. Part numbers, manufacturer names and trademarks belong to their owners and are used here for identification only, without any claim of affiliation or endorsement. Datasheet references are citations, not reproductions: the datasheet itself remains the property of the manufacturer.

7. Third-party links and advertising

The site contains links to third-party documents and may display third-party advertising. Those destinations are outside our control and we are not responsible for their content, products, availability or privacy practices. See the privacy policy for how advertising cookies are handled.

8. Availability and changes

The catalogue changes continuously as profiles are published and revised. We may modify, suspend or discontinue any part of the site at any time without notice. These terms may be revised; the version published at this URL with the most recent Last updated date is the version in force.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws applicable at the operator's principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Nothing in this section removes a consumer's right to bring proceedings in the courts of their own country of residence where that right cannot be waived.
