Effective [Effective date]

What HorseBond is

HorseBond is a search engine and directory that indexes horses advertised for sale across public sources (classified sites, trainer and ranch websites, social media) and links back to the original listing. We are not the seller, broker, agent, or a party to any sale. We do not host the transactions, take payment, or guarantee any horse, price, seller, or listing.

No warranty on listing information

Listing details are gathered from third-party sources and may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, or already sold. We summarize and normalize information but do not verify it. Confirm everything — health, soundness, price, ownership, registration — directly with the seller and through your own due diligence (including a pre-purchase vet exam) before any purchase. Use of any listing is at your own risk.

Sellers & listing owners

If a listing concerns your horse and you want it corrected or removed, use the report/claim tools on the listing or contact support@horsebond.com. We honor reasonable removal requests. We aim to show only horses with recent evidence of being for sale and remove those that appear sold or withdrawn.
