Roadstar Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern access to and use of https://www.roadstar.app/ and related Roadstar research features (the "Service"). The Service is provided by [Nebulae Laboratories Inc.], operating as Roadstar ("Roadstar," "we," "us," or "our").

By accepting these Terms through an account-creation flow or other acceptance mechanism, you agree to them. If you use the Service after receiving reasonably prominent notice of these Terms and a reasonable opportunity to review them, these Terms apply to that use to the extent permitted by law. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

If you accept these Terms on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it, and "you" includes that organization. A separately signed agreement with Roadstar controls to the extent it expressly addresses and conflicts with these Terms.

You must be at least 18, have reached the age of legal majority where you live, and have legal capacity to enter this agreement. You must not use the Service where doing so would violate applicable law.

Provide accurate account information and keep it current. Protect your login credentials and promptly notify john@nebulae-labs.com of suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for your use and for access you authorize, but not for losses that applicable law makes our responsibility. Do not impersonate another person or share credentials to bypass plan or access restrictions.

Some features require an account, an approved contributor role, or a paid plan. Access to one feature does not promise access to every current or future feature.

Roadstar helps users discover, organize, and evaluate research. Features may include public feeds, followed pages, company pages, questions, theses, source links, evidence timelines, summaries, extracted metrics, and AI-assisted analysis. Features may evolve, and a feature described as planned or "coming soon" is not a commitment to deliver it.

Research can change as new sources or interpretations become available. Publication and update timestamps do not guarantee that every underlying source or fact has been rechecked. We do not promise uninterrupted access, complete source coverage, or real-time market data unless expressly agreed in a separate written agreement. Any service changes affecting a paid commitment remain subject to Section 9 and mandatory consumer rights.

The Service provides general information for research and educational purposes. It is not personalized investment, financial, legal, tax, medical, or other professional advice. It does not assess your individual circumstances, objectives, financial position, risk tolerance, or health needs. Using Roadstar does not create an adviser-client, fiduciary, doctor-patient, or similar professional relationship.

Statements about companies, securities, industries, valuation, expected returns, or investment theses are research content. They are not an offer, solicitation, or instruction to buy, sell, or hold an investment. Research conclusions, confidence indicators, and classifications such as bullish or bearish are assessments that may be mistaken or become outdated.

You are responsible for evaluating information and making your own decisions. Verify material claims against original sources and obtain qualified professional advice when appropriate. Investments can lose value, including all invested capital. Past results, hypothetical outcomes, and forecasts do not guarantee future performance. Nothing in this section limits liability or rights that cannot legally be limited.

The Service uses AI to assist with research, summaries, extraction, comparison, and answers. AI output can contain errors, omissions, bias, fabricated details, or inaccurate citations, and it may misinterpret a source. An apparently precise number or confident explanation does not establish accuracy.

Review original sources and independently check important conclusions before relying on output or sharing it as fact. Outputs may be similar to material generated for others and may not be unique or eligible for intellectual-property protection. We do not guarantee that you acquire exclusive rights in output or that it is free of third-party rights. Subject to these Terms and those rights, you may use output for lawful personal and internal business research.

Our processing of prompts, context, and associated information is described in the Privacy Policy. These Terms do not independently authorize public disclosure of private information or the use of personal information for model training beyond what is lawfully disclosed and permitted.

"Your Content" means material you submit to the Service, including questions, context, source links, evidence, commentary, theses, and other contributions. As between you and Roadstar, you retain any rights you already hold in Your Content. Third-party material remains subject to its owners' rights.

You grant Roadstar a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, process, summarize, and technically adapt Your Content only as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, fulfill your instructions, maintain and secure the Service, and meet legal obligations. We may sublicense these rights to service providers only to perform those tasks on our behalf. This license does not authorize selling Your Content as a separate product or using your identity to endorse Roadstar.

For content you submit for public publication, the license also permits us to display and distribute that content and its relevant summaries or adaptations through the Service. Public content may be copied or indexed by others. Account closure does not automatically retract published contributions. The license continues only while reasonably needed for the authorized publication, applicable retention, backups, or legal obligations, and is subject to your privacy rights. Contact us to request removal.

For content submitted through a feature identified as private, the license does not authorize public display. Before submitting a question, review the feature's publication notice. Supporting context can influence a generated answer even when the original context field is not displayed on the finished page. Do not submit confidential information or sensitive personal information unless the feature is designed for it and you have authority to do so.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions needed to submit Your Content and grant this license. Do not upload material in breach of confidentiality, privacy, copyright, licensing restrictions, or other legal duties. If you contribute investment-related commentary, disclose material conflicts of interest where required and do not use the Service to manipulate markets or circulate misleading promotional claims.

You must not:

• Use the Service for fraud, unlawful conduct, market manipulation, impersonation, harassment, or other conduct that violates another person's rights.
• Submit unlawful or infringing material, malicious software, another person's account credentials, or personal information you have no right to disclose.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access, defeat security controls, probe systems without permission, or interfere with the Service or other users.
• Circumvent account restrictions, paywalls, rate limits, or technical controls, including by creating multiple accounts to evade a restriction.
• Use automated access that materially burdens the Service or bypasses access controls; extract or redistribute substantial portions of our content or database without permission, except as permitted by law.
• Resell access, reproduce the Service as a competing database, or use restricted Service content to train or develop a model without the necessary permission or legal right.
• Remove attribution or proprietary notices, misrepresent a source or AI output, or claim that Roadstar has endorsed your work without authorization.

These restrictions do not prohibit activity that applicable law expressly allows despite contractual restrictions, including protected research or legally permitted interoperability activities.

Roadstar and its licensors retain their rights in the Service's software, branding, design, and original content. Subject to these Terms and applicable plan limits, we give you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable right to access and use the Service for lawful personal or internal business research. No ownership of our intellectual property is transferred to you.

Articles, reports, filings, images, data, and other third-party materials belong to their respective rights holders. Links, excerpts, summaries, and attribution do not grant rights to reproduce the underlying material beyond what its license or applicable law allows. Obtain any additional permissions you need.

Third-party sources and services have their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control their availability, accuracy, security, or subsequent changes. Inclusion of a source, contributor, or link does not by itself constitute an endorsement. Any sponsored placement or paid promotion must be identified as such where required by law.

This section applies only if you purchase a paid feature or plan. Before purchase, we will disclose the applicable price, currency, billing frequency, taxes or how they are calculated, and any renewal terms. You authorize the charges you expressly agree to at checkout. A payment provider may process the transaction under its own terms.

A subscription renews automatically only when that arrangement is clearly disclosed and you give the required consent. The checkout terms will state the renewal period and how to cancel. If a free trial converts to a paid plan, its length, conversion date, price, and cancellation deadline will be disclosed before enrollment, and required reminders will be provided.

You may cancel using the cancellation method provided with your subscription or by contacting john@nebulae-labs.com. We will provide any online cancellation method required by applicable law. Cancellation stops future renewals once it takes effect; access ordinarily continues through the paid period unless you request earlier termination or applicable law requires another outcome.

Except where a purchase-specific refund policy or applicable law provides otherwise, fees for a billing period already begun are nonrefundable. This does not exclude statutory withdrawal rights, remedies for nonconforming services, or refunds we are legally required to provide. Any legally required consent to begin immediate supply, or acknowledgment affecting a withdrawal right, must be obtained separately at purchase.

We will notify you of material price or renewal changes before they apply and obtain fresh consent when required. Price changes apply prospectively, ordinarily from a renewal. If we discontinue a paid service before the end of a prepaid period for reasons unrelated to your breach, we will refund the unused portion unless you agree to an equivalent alternative or a more favorable legal remedy applies.

We may review, restrict, or remove content, or limit access, when reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms, address suspected unlawful activity, protect users or the Service, or comply with legal obligations. We will provide notice, reasons, and an opportunity to challenge a decision where required by law. A report alone does not establish that content is unlawful.

To report content or appeal a moderation decision, email john@nebulae-labs.com with the relevant URL, an explanation, and supporting information. For a copyright complaint, identify the protected work, the allegedly infringing material and its location, your contact details, and your authority to act. Include a good-faith statement that the disputed use is unauthorized and an accurate statement of your ownership or authority, signed physically or electronically; provide any additional declarations required by applicable law.

We may request further information and provide the relevant contributor an opportunity to respond when appropriate. We may terminate accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

You may stop using the Service at any time and request account closure at john@nebulae-labs.com. Cancelling a paid subscription and deleting an account are distinct actions; please specify both if you want both. Requests to delete personal information are handled under the Privacy Policy and applicable law.

We may suspend or terminate access for a material breach, unlawful use, a serious security risk, a legal requirement, or discontinuation of the Service. Where reasonable and permitted, we will give notice and an opportunity to resolve a remediable breach. Immediate action may be necessary for urgent security, safety, or legal reasons.

We will provide any access, export opportunity, notice, or refund required by law or a paid commitment. Terms concerning accrued payment obligations, intellectual property, the limited continuing content license, disclaimers, liability, and disputes survive termination to the extent their nature requires.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and its content are provided "as is" and "as available." We disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement, to the extent those warranties may lawfully be disclaimed. We do not warrant that the Service will be error-free, uninterrupted, completely secure, or suitable for a particular investment or professional decision.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Roadstar and its officers, employees, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or lost profits, revenue, business opportunities, or data arising from your use of the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Roadstar's total aggregate liability arising from or relating to the Service or these Terms is limited to the greater of US$100 and the fees you paid Roadstar for the Service during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

These limitations do not exclude or limit liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence where protected by law, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. They do not remove mandatory consumer guarantees, privacy remedies, or other nonwaivable statutory rights. Where local law requires a different remedy or limitation, that law applies.

If you use the Service for an organization or business, to the extent permitted by law you agree to indemnify Roadstar against third-party claims, damages, and reasonable legal costs directly arising from Your Content infringing third-party rights, your unlawful use, or your material breach of these Terms. This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim results from Roadstar's own breach, negligence, or misconduct.

We will promptly notify you of a covered claim, allow you to control its defense with reasonably suitable counsel, and cooperate at your expense. You may not settle a claim in a way that admits fault for Roadstar or imposes nonmonetary obligations on it without our reasonable written consent. This section does not impose an indemnity on individuals using the Service solely as consumers.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Delaware, United States, excluding its conflict-of-law rules, except that mandatory laws protecting consumers in their place of residence continue to apply.

Subject to those mandatory rights, the courts located in Delaware will have jurisdiction over disputes relating to these Terms or the Service. Nothing prevents you from bringing a claim in a court available to you under mandatory consumer law or from contacting a regulator.

We encourage you to contact john@nebulae-labs.com so we can try to resolve a concern. Doing so is not a prerequisite to exercising a legal right and does not extend or shorten a statutory time limit.

We may update these Terms to reflect changes to the Service, legal requirements, or business practices. We will publish the revised Terms with a new effective date and give reasonable advance notice of material changes, except where an urgent legal or security reason requires an earlier change. Changes apply prospectively. We will obtain renewed acceptance when required by law; if you do not agree, you may stop using the Service and exercise any applicable cancellation or refund rights.

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law. Failure to enforce a provision does not waive it. You may not transfer your rights or obligations without our consent, except where law permits. We may transfer these Terms in connection with a genuine business reorganization or transfer of the Service, provided your mandatory rights are preserved and required notice is given.

These Terms and any applicable purchase terms form the agreement concerning the Service, subject to any separately signed agreement. The Privacy Policy explains personal-information processing and does not substitute for any consent required by law. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, employment, agency, or joint venture relationship.
