Draft

Terms of use

Draft placeholder. Legal review required before commercial launch.
This text was written by an engineer to describe intended behaviour. It has not been reviewed by a qualified lawyer, it is not a contract, and it must not be relied upon. It exists so the structure is in place and the gap is visible rather than hidden.

Intended position

AreaIQ is an intelligence discovery service. It identifies developments that may be relevant to a business and explains why they might be. It does not provide commercial, financial, investment, legal or operational advice, and nothing it produces should be treated as such. AreaIQ does not state that any development will generate business.

Accuracy

Coverage is selective and may be incomplete or delayed. Automated interpretation may be incorrect. Users must verify material information against the original sources before acting.

Points a lawyer must settle

Limitation of liability for commercial decisions taken on the basis of interpretation. The boundary between intelligence and regulated advice. Redistribution rights for licensed and third-party source material. Jurisdiction and governing law. Acceptable use and rate limits. Termination and refunds once payment exists.
