3.1. All content, submissions, analyses, responses, written work, models, calculations, data entries, notes, drafts, comments, communications, and any other material you create, submit, upload, transmit, generate, type, modify, or otherwise produce in connection with or through the use of the Platform, including material that is deleted, unsaved, partially completed, or never formally submitted (collectively, "User Content"), is and shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company.
3.2. You hereby irrevocably assign, transfer, and convey to the Company all right, title, and interest in and to all User Content, including all intellectual property rights therein, including but not limited to all copyrights, patent rights, trademark rights, trade secret rights, moral rights, and all other proprietary rights, in perpetuity, throughout the world, in all media now known or hereafter devised.
3.3. To the extent that any such assignment is not effective or enforceable under applicable law, you hereby grant to the Company an exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, display, and otherwise exploit all User Content for any purpose.

4.1. All content, features, functionality, software, code, design, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, and other materials available on or through the Platform ("Platform Content") are owned by the Company, its licensors, or other providers and are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.
4.2. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Platform and Platform Content solely for your personal, non-commercial participation in the Platform's programs. This license does not include any right to reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any Platform Content, except as incidentally necessary for normal use of the Platform (such as browser caching).
4.3. No right, title, or interest in or to the Platform or any Platform Content is transferred to you, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Company.
4A. Membership Tiers and Founding Memberships
4A.1. Access to the Platform is offered through one or more membership tiers, which the Company defines from time to time in its sole discretion. The Company reserves the right to establish, modify, combine, or discontinue tiers; to define, redefine, and reasonably limit the features, capabilities, consumption allowances, and resources included within each tier; and to introduce new tiers, add-ons, or discrete offerings for which additional consideration is required.
4A.2. Your membership entitles you to access the Platform at the tier purchased, as the Company defines that tier from time to time. Your membership does not entitle you to any specific feature, capability, resource, or consumption quantity that is not expressly included in your tier at the time of use, and does not create any right to features, add-ons, or offerings subsequently introduced by the Company and designated as outside the tier.
4A.3. From time to time, the Company may offer a limited cohort of memberships designated as "Founding Memberships," "Lifetime Memberships," or equivalent terms reflecting a single-payment structure without a recurring subscription fee ("Founding Memberships"). Founding Memberships are made available in limited quantity, for a limited duration, or both, as stated at the time of purchase. Once the applicable cohort size or availability window has been reached, the Company will not offer additional Founding Memberships under the same terms, and the Company's ceasing to offer such memberships does not create any obligation to current or prospective Members.
4A.4. For purposes of Founding Memberships, the term "lifetime" means access for the duration of the Company's operation of the Platform, subject to the other provisions of this Section 4A. A Founding Membership does not constitute (a) a perpetual right of access independent of the Company's continued operation of the Platform; (b) a guarantee that the Platform will continue to exist or operate in any particular form, at any particular scale, or at any particular quality; or (c) a property interest surviving discontinuation of the Platform.
4A.5. A Founding Member receives access to the tier purchased, as that tier exists at the time of purchase and as it reasonably evolves in the ordinary course. A Founding Member is not entitled to: (a) features, capabilities, or offerings introduced after the close of the Founding cohort and designated by the Company as part of a higher tier, as a premium add-on, as a separate product, or as otherwise outside the Founding tier; (b) consumption of any resource beyond the limits reasonably defined for the tier from time to time; or (c) any feature, capability, or offering after it has been discontinued by the Company for all Members.
4A.6. Founding Members may receive, at the Company's discretion, visible recognition of their status within the Platform, which may include a designated badge or indicator displayed in the Member's public analyst profile, priority placement in leaderboards, or inclusion in published materials referring to the Founding cohort. The specific manner in which Founding Member status is surfaced within the Platform may evolve over time. The Company will not remove a Member's Founding designation so long as the Member remains in good standing and has not breached these Terms.
4A.7. The Company may change the architecture, delivery, interaction model, tier structure, or underlying technology of the Platform at any time. In the event the Company materially restructures the Platform such that the tier purchased no longer exists in substantially the same form, Founding Members shall receive access, at no additional consideration, to the successor tier or offering that is most closely equivalent to the tier purchased, as reasonably determined by the Company acting in good faith. "Most closely equivalent" shall be determined by reference to the bundle of access as a whole and need not be identical in composition, feature set, or resource allowances.
4A.8. The Company reserves the right to restructure access tiers, consumption limits, or feature bundles for Founding Memberships upon not less than ninety (90) days' prior written notice to affected Members, provided that following such restructuring, Founding Members shall retain access at least equivalent to the tier purchased, as reasonably determined by the Company. "At least equivalent" means a bundle of access that is reasonably comparable in scope and value, though it need not be identical in composition. The reservation of this right does not create any obligation to exercise it, and the Company may maintain Founding Memberships indefinitely in their current form.
4A.9. These Terms travel with the Platform. If the Company transfers the Platform or any substantial portion thereof to a successor operator, whether by acquisition, merger, sale of assets, or otherwise, such successor operator shall assume the Company's obligations under these Terms, including this Section 4A, and may exercise any rights reserved to the Company under these Terms, including those set forth in Sections 4A.1, 4A.7, and 4A.8. Lifetime access to a Founding Membership terminates if and when the Platform ceases to be operated, whether by the Company or any successor operator. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, no refund, credit, or other consideration shall be owed in respect of a Founding Membership that has been active for twelve (12) months or longer at the time the Platform ceases to be operated.
4A.10. Founding Memberships are personal, non-transferable, non-assignable, and non-resellable. Each Founding Membership is tied to the specific individual identified at the time of purchase. You shall not sell, gift, lend, assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise convey your Founding Membership, nor shall you permit any other person to use your account or access credentials. Any purported sale, gift, assignment, pledge, or transfer is void ab initio and constitutes a material breach of these Terms for which the Company may terminate the Membership immediately and without refund. The Company may, in its sole discretion and as a matter of grace rather than right, consent in writing to a limited one-time transfer in narrow circumstances (including but not limited to the death or permanent legal incapacity of a Member); any such transfer requires the Company's prior express written consent and may be refused without cause.
4A.11. Founding Memberships are subject to the refund policy set forth in Section 5A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, and except as otherwise required by applicable law, no refund, credit, or other consideration shall be owed in respect of a Founding Membership outside the fourteen (14) day window established by Section 5A, including upon voluntary termination by the Member, upon the Company's termination of the Member's access for cause pursuant to Section 7.2 or any other provision, or upon any reduction, restructuring, or discontinuation effected pursuant to this Section 4A.

5A. Refund Policy
5A.1. The Company offers a fourteen (14) day refund policy from the date of purchase. However, refunds will not be issued where there is evidence of any of the following:
(a) Automated access, scraping, crawling, or systematic downloading of Platform Content including but not limited to deal data, pitch decks, screening materials, and fund mandate information;
(b) Bulk data extraction, whether manual or automated, beyond what is reasonably necessary for individual educational use;
(c) Redistribution, resale, or commercial reuse of any content accessed through the Platform;
(d) Sharing account credentials or access with unauthorized third parties; or
(e) Use of the Platform to build, train, or augment competing products or services.
5A.2. The Company reserves the right to terminate access immediately and without refund upon detection of any of the above activities.
5A.3. Usage Data including page views, document access patterns, and session telemetry may be used as evidence in dispute resolution.
