These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the SigFact platform, website, and related services (collectively, the "Service") operated by SigFact ("we", "us", or "our"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. Introduction and Acceptance
These Terms of Use constitute a legally binding agreement between you and SigFact. By creating an account, subscribing to a plan, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Billing & Refund Policy.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by posting the updated Terms on the Service and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
2. Description of the Service
SigFact is a signal intelligence and workflow product that provides structured company-signal monitoring, cross-language intelligence, and editorial workflow support based on official and verified source material.
SigFact is not a brokerage, research analyst firm, law firm, or regulated advisory service. The Service organizes, summarizes, classifies, and presents signals from source material to support your monitoring and analysis workflows. The Service includes free and paid subscription tiers, each with different levels of access to features, data, and tools.
3. Eligibility and Account Responsibilities
You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. By creating an account, you represent that you meet this age requirement and that the information you provide is accurate, current, and complete.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. SigFact is not liable for any loss arising from unauthorized access to your account where such access was not caused by our negligence.
4. Subscriptions, Trial, and Billing
SigFact offers free and paid subscription tiers. Paid subscriptions include a 7-day free trial period. A valid payment method is required to start the trial. Unless you cancel before the trial period ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan and you will be charged.
Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled. You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings or by contacting support.
For complete details on subscription plans, pricing, trial terms, cancellation, renewal, and refund rules, please refer to our Billing & Refund Policy.

6. Intellectual Property
All content, features, and functionality of the Service, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, data compilations, software, editorial outputs, and the overall design and structure, are owned by SigFact or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws.
Your subscription grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Service for your internal business purposes only. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from the Service content except as expressly permitted by your subscription tier.
Signal content presented by SigFact may reference or summarize third-party source material. Such references are provided for informational purposes and remain the intellectual property of their respective owners.
7. Content and Source Disclaimers
SigFact organizes, summarizes, classifies, and presents signals derived from company and industry source material. While we strive for accuracy and timeliness, we do not guarantee:
• Completeness of coverage across all companies, industries, or geographies.
• Uninterrupted or error-free signal monitoring.
• Accuracy of every classification, summary, or editorial interpretation.
• That all relevant signals will be captured or presented in real time.
Content may be updated, modified, or removed over time as sources change or as we refine our editorial processes. Signal content should be used as one input among many in your professional workflow, not as a sole basis for decision-making.
8. No Investment, Legal, or Professional Advice
SigFact content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment, legal, tax, accounting, or other professional advice. Nothing in the Service should be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security, or as a solicitation of any financial transaction.
Users are solely responsible for their own decisions, evaluations, and actions based on use of the Service. You should consult qualified professionals before making investment, legal, tax, or other professional decisions. SigFact expressly disclaims any liability for losses or damages arising from reliance on information provided through the Service.
9. Service Availability and Changes
We strive to maintain the Service's availability, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely, or error-free access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time with reasonable notice. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of significant changes that may affect their use of the Service.
10. Termination and Suspension
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time if you violate these Terms or for any other reason at our sole discretion, with or without notice. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease.
