The ClearSign name, logo, and all associated trademarks and service marks may not be used in connection with any other business name, product, or service without our prior written permission. Unauthorised use may constitute a violation of applicable intellectual property or other laws.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components, or that AI-generated analysis will be accurate, complete, or suitable for any particular purpose. AI models can make mistakes — ClearSign's output may miss clauses, misinterpret language, or produce incorrect assessments. You use the Service at your own risk.

In any event, our total aggregate liability to you for any and all claims arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall not exceed the total amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

14. Changes to the Service and Terms
We may modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes by email or by posting a notice on the Service. What constitutes a material change is determined at our sole discretion.
