For all offerings, subscription funds are held by an escrow agent pending completion or termination of an offering. The use of escrow services is subject to those providers’ terms of use and privacy policies. Investment overviews on the Site or App contain summaries of the purpose and principal terms of the investment opportunities. Such summaries are intended for informational purposes only and do not purport to be complete, and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained in the investor document package relating to such investment opportunity, including the Form C filed with the SEC. The information contained on the Site or App and in the offering materials have been prepared by the respective issuer without reference to any particular User’s investment requirements or financial situation, and potential investors are encouraged to consult with professional tax, legal and financial advisors before making any investment. The Company shall have the right but not the obligation to remove, cancel or reject the posting of any securities offerings. Failure to remove, cancel or reject securities offerings suspected of violating the securities laws does not constitute an endorsement or approval of said securities offerings by the Company. The ability of a User to invest in an offering on the Portal will depend on the individual investor’s financial circumstances and investment history, pursuant to the eligibility requirements of Reg CF. The information provided herein shall not be deemed legal advice. You are strongly advised to consult with your own legal counsel.
In providing our Services or access to our Site or App or Content therein, we do not offer investment advice. We make no recommendation about the purchase of, or any investment decision made regarding, any security, and we do not provide Users with any investment advice whatsoever. By accessing or using any of the Site, App or Services, you acknowledge and agree that we do not and will not provide you with any legal, tax, estate planning or accounting advice or any advice regarding the suitability, profitability, or appropriateness for you of any security or investment, and that our Site, App, Services, and Content on our Site and App do not constitute investment advice.
Any decisions, whether investment related or otherwise, based on information contained on our Site or App or provided through our Services are your sole responsibility. The securities, if any, made available through or discussed on our Site or App, may not be suitable for all investors. We make no representations that such securities are available to or appropriate for investors or users in all jurisdictions or locations, nor that any investment vehicle is available or suitable for any particular user or purpose. All Users accessing or using our Site, App or Services do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws and regulations.
Investing involves risk, including market risks and macro conditions such as inflation and political and economic risk, and investments may lose value. Before investing, consider your investment objectives, financial resources, experience and risk tolerance and fees related to investing through our Site, App or Services. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investment outcomes and projections are hypothetical in nature and cannot be guaranteed. Investing in the securities made available through or discussed on our Site or App may involve higher risks than traditional investments and may have different financial and/or tax implications.
By accessing or using any of our Site, App or Services, you represent and warrant that, with respect to making, or the decision to make, an investment in any security made available on or through our Site or App:
You have read and understand the discussion of risks herein and are aware of the risks of any investment in intellectual property related assets or securities representing interests in intellectual property related assets.
You have read and understand the educational materials and will review the educational materials from time to time to ensure you are informed of the risks and procedures of Reg CF.
You understand that investment commitments in any issuer on the Portal can be canceled until 48 hours prior to each issuer’s next closing or offering deadline.
You understand that investing in an issuer on the Portal, now and in the future, when combined with all of your other Reg CF investments during any 12-month period on any crowdfunding portal, does not and will not exceed your Reg CF investment limit, and you agree to make timely updates to the information you provide to the Company on the Site or App, including disclosure to the Company of any Reg CF investments made through another portal or changes in your status as an Accredited Investor, to ensure you do not exceed regulatory investment limits.
You will use your own judgment before making any decision to invest any amount of money in any security made available through the Site, App or Services.
You are solely responsible for complying with applicable law regarding any transaction, including, without limitation, the determination of whether any investment complies with the terms of local law (whether the law of a U.S. state, or the law of any foreign government with jurisdiction over you).
You will obtain professional advice as is appropriate to protect your interests, including any legal, accounting, financial or other relevant advice.
You understand that we do not act as an investment advisor in relation to securities made available through our Site or App, are not providing any advice related to such securities, and will not be, in any way responsible for the success or failure of any investments made through our Site or App.
You are not relying upon any person or entity other than the underlying issuer of an investment.
We, either ourselves or through third-party service providers, may perform background checks on Users of our Site, App or Services and all subscribers in the offerings of securities listed on our Site and App. These background checks are to confirm whether a subscriber or User’s name and identity matches the identity of anyone listed on a terrorist or criminal database or watch list or is associated with any foreign government. By subscribing for the securities, if any, available through our Site or App, you consent to such background checks. With respect to background checks (including, but not limited to data which we obtain from third parties regarding publicly available information pursuant to the requirements of the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, USA PATRIOT Act, criminal law, bankruptcy, or other laws, the data and information contained in our investigations is obtained from numerous regulatory, private, and public sources and is thought to be reliable. The issuers on our Site and App may have legal obligations under the USA PATRIOT Act or other applicable laws designed to detect money laundering or other crimes, including obligations to report suspicious activity. We reserve the right to deny any individual the right to access investment products that are otherwise available on our Site and App for any reason, including, without limitation, as a result of information obtained in connection with background checks and whether or not such information is accurate, truthful, or complete.
You acknowledge and agree that we and any broker-dealer whom an issuer engages to assist it in marketing its securities offering will perform Know Your Customer (“KYC”) procedures on all subscribers, as required by internal policies and, in the case of those broker-dealers, as required by applicable FINRA guidelines and federal and state regulations for financial institutions. You agree that this is a general requirement and in compliance with regulatory rules and guidance, and in no way creates or is deemed to be any form of recommendation or advice by us. Such issuers and broker-dealers may, in their sole and absolute discretion, decline to accept any person’s request to subscribe in any offering, at any time, with no requirement for any reason or explanation; the parties agree that such decline decisions, if any, shall not constitute an opinion, recommendation, or investment, legal or tax advice by us.
