Terms
Terms of use.
This is a reference site with no accounts and nothing to buy, so these terms are short. The part that matters is the accuracy section.
Who these terms are from
Ronaldo vs Messi (ronaldovsmessi.com) publishes this site. Using it means accepting what is set out below. The site is offered as it is, free of charge, with no account to create and nothing to pay.
Accuracy of the statistics
The figures on this site are a best-effort compilation from third-party sources, named on the methodology page. They are not official records. They may contain errors. Football statistics also genuinely disagree between reputable sources — career assist totals and hat-trick counts especially — and where a figure is disputed this site says so beside the number rather than presenting one answer as settled.
There is no address to report an error to. This site publishes no contact channel at all, which is set out on the contact page; the methodology page is where to check whether a figure you doubt is one this site already records as disputed.
Do not rely on anything here for betting, for a transaction, or for any other decision with money or consequences attached. Nothing on this site is advice of any kind, and no liability is accepted for a decision taken on the basis of a figure published here.
No affiliation
This is an independent reference. It is not affiliated with Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, their agents, their clubs, FIFA, UEFA, CONMEBOL or any sponsor of either player. Club names, competition names and trademarks belong to their owners and are used here only to describe the matches and competitions concerned.
What you may reuse
Facts are not owned by anybody: goal totals, dates and results are not claimed as proprietary, and you are free to use them. The writing on this site, the way the pages are organised and the charts are its own work, and copyright in those is reserved.
Quoting a figure with a link back is fine and needs no permission. Republishing substantial amounts of the written text, or reproducing pages, is not permitted — and because this site publishes no contact channel, permission cannot currently be sought or granted. Automated bulk copying is not permitted either.
Advertising
This site intends to carry third-party advertising, which means ads are chosen by an advertising network and not by Ronaldo vs Messi. An ad appearing here is not an endorsement, and Ronaldo vs Messi is not responsible for advertisers, their products or the pages they link to. What that advertising does with cookies is described in the privacy policy.
Availability
The site is provided without any warranty that it will be available, uninterrupted or free of errors. It may change, move or stop at any time. The changelog records what has actually changed and when.
Governing law and changes
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. They may change; the date below is when they were last revised, and continuing to use the site after a change means accepting the revised version. Last revised . That date is maintained by hand and is not tied to the site’s data-refresh timestamp.
