- scrape, crawl, harvest or systematically download content or data from the Service, whether manually or by automated means (including bots, spiders or AI training tools);
- copy, reproduce, republish, sell, resell, license, sublicense, rent or otherwise commercially exploit the Service or its content, or build a competing database or product from it;

5. Intellectual property
The Service, including its design, text, compilations, classifications, visualisations and software, is owned by or licensed to Bizcognix and is protected by intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Company names, trademarks, logos and brand features displayed in the Service belong to their respective owners. They are used solely to identify the companies referenced in publicly reported case studies. Their use does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by or endorsement of Bizcognix by those owners, or any endorsement of those companies by Bizcognix. Logos are used for identification only, and trademark owners may ask us to remove theirs at any time (see Corrections and takedown requests); we will replace it with a neutral lettered badge.
6. Third-party sources and links
Case studies in the Service are compiled from publicly available third-party sources, such as company announcements, press releases and media reports, and link to those sources where available. Case summaries are written by Bizcognix in its own words; every case credits and links its original sources, and any short quotations are attributed. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, websites or services, their accuracy or availability, or any changes to them. Accessing third-party links is at your own risk and subject to the terms of those third parties.
7. Accuracy of information
The content in the Service is compiled from public sources and may contain errors, omissions, inaccuracies or outdated information. In particular:
- figures such as investment amounts, timelines and results are presented as reported by the original sources and have not been independently verified by Bizcognix;
- process and industry labels are Bizcognix classifications applied for comparison purposes and may not reflect how the companies concerned describe themselves; and
- information is current only as of the date indicated and may change after publication.
You must independently validate any information before relying on it. If you notice an error, please let us know at hello@bizcognix.com so we can review it.
8. Corrections and takedown requests
If you believe any content in the Service is inaccurate, out of date or infringes your rights — including copyright or trademark — or if you represent a company that would prefer its logo not to be displayed, please email hello@bizcognix.com. Please tell us the company and case concerned, what should change and why, and include a source or supporting information where available.
We review every request promptly and, where appropriate, correct, update or remove the content concerned. Where a company asks us to stop displaying its logo, we replace it with a neutral lettered badge.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BIZCOGNIX DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, TIMELINESS, CURRENCY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. BIZCOGNIX DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE CONTENT IS ERROR-FREE OR COMPLETE, THAT IT IS UP TO DATE, THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.
THE CONTENT IS COMPILED FROM PUBLIC SOURCES, MAY CONTAIN ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR OUTDATED INFORMATION, AND HAS NOT BEEN INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED. ANY RELIANCE YOU PLACE ON THE SERVICE OR ITS CONTENT IS STRICTLY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
10. No professional advice
The Service is provided for general information purposes only. Nothing in it constitutes professional, investment, financial, legal, tax, accounting, technical or other advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell or invest in any company, product or technology. You should obtain appropriate professional advice before making any business or investment decision.
11. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL BIZCOGNIX OR ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OPPORTUNITY, GOODWILL, DATA OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, OR ANY OTHER LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF OR RELIANCE ON THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT, INCLUDING ANY ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR INACCURACIES IN THE CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND EVEN IF BIZCOGNIX HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED BUT MAY BE LIMITED, BIZCOGNIX’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO BIZCOGNIX FOR ACCESS TO THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE (WHICH, FOR FREE ACCESS, IS ZERO).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions and limitations above apply only to the extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
12. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bizcognix and its owners, officers, employees, contractors and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your use or misuse of the Service, your reliance on its content, or your breach of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.
13. Suspension and termination
We may suspend, restrict or terminate your access to all or part of the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including if we believe you have breached these Terms. We may also modify, suspend or discontinue the Service or any content at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination, including intellectual property, accuracy of information, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law, will survive.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above and, where changes are material, take reasonable steps to let you know. Your continued use of the Service after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or the Service are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Bizcognix is established, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The courts of that jurisdiction will have exclusive jurisdiction, except where applicable consumer protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your country of residence.
16. General
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign them in connection with a reorganisation, merger or sale of the Service.
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Bizcognix regarding the Service.
