Terms of Service

Upclytics provides cross-case analytics derived from the public record of the Unified Patent Court and related sources. We do not provide legal advice; we provide structured information sourced from court documents and aggregated for research and decision support. The Service is offered as a hosted product accessed via upclytics.com.

You must provide accurate registration information and keep your account credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. If you suspect unauthorized access, notify us immediately at contact@upclytics.com.

You must be at least sixteen years old to use the Service. The Service is not intended for personal/consumer use; you represent that you are using the Service in connection with a business, profession, or research activity.

Subject to your compliance with these terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Service for your internal business or research purposes. The license includes the right to view, query, and export reasonable amounts of data through the Service's interface. The license is personal to you and the legal entity you represent.

You may not: (a) resell, sublicense, white-label, or redistribute the Service or its data; (b) scrape, crawl, or systematically download the Service in a manner that exceeds normal browsing or our published API limits; (c) use the Service to violate the rights of third parties or applicable law, including intellectual-property, privacy, and competition law; (d) reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code, except to the extent expressly permitted by mandatory law; (e) use the Service to build or train a competing analytics product; (f) interfere with the Service's operation or security, or attempt to gain unauthorized access; (g) use the Service to send spam or unsolicited communications.

We may suspend access if we reasonably believe you are violating these rules.

The Service — including its software, design, taxonomies, classification methodology, and aggregated data products — is owned by us and protected by copyright, database right, and other intellectual-property laws. The underlying court documents are public records; the structured aggregations and classifications we derive from them are our property.

You retain ownership of any content you submit to the Service (for example, contact-form messages or data uploaded to features that allow uploads). You grant us the rights necessary to host, process, and display that content for the purpose of operating the Service.

The Service is for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for professional judgment. Court records are subject to error, redaction, late publication, and reinterpretation. While we work to ensure accuracy, we make no warranty that any specific number, classification, or summary is free of error. Do not rely on the Service as the sole basis for legal or commercial decisions of consequence.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, and non-infringement. Mandatory consumer-protection rights, including those under EU consumer law where applicable, are not affected by this disclaimer.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, whether incurred directly or indirectly.

For users of the free tier, our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service shall not exceed one hundred US dollars ($100). For users on a paid plan (when introduced), our aggregate liability shall not exceed the greater of one hundred US dollars ($100) or the fees you paid us in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot be lawfully excluded.

You will indemnify and hold us harmless from third-party claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of: (a) your use of the Service in breach of these terms or applicable law; (b) your content submitted through the Service; or (c) your infringement of third-party rights. This obligation does not apply to claims for which we are responsible under section 8 (Limitation of liability).

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from /account. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these terms, if continued provision becomes unlawful or commercially impracticable, or after thirty days' notice for any reason in our reasonable discretion.

On termination, your access ends. We retain and delete account data per the schedule in our Privacy Policy (deactivated for thirty days, then permanently deleted from primary storage). Sections that by their nature should survive — including intellectual-property, disclaimer, limitation-of-liability, indemnification, and governing-law sections — survive termination.

If you qualify as a consumer under EU law, you may have additional non-waivable rights, including (where applicable to a paid contract concluded online) a fourteen-day cooling-off period during which you may withdraw from the contract without giving any reason. To exercise that right, write to contact@upclytics.com within fourteen days of concluding the contract.

We do not use auto-renewal traps: any future paid plan we introduce will require explicit, informed consent for renewal, and we will give you reasonable notice before each renewal so you can cancel.

Nothing in these terms overrides your mandatory rights under EU consumer protection law.

We may modify the Service over time. We may change these terms; if a change is material, we will notify registered users by email and update the "last updated" date at the top of this page at least 30 days before the change takes effect. Continued use of the Service after the change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not accept a change, your remedy is to stop using the Service before the change takes effect.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to the EU consumer-rights carve-out in section 11, disputes shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of Toronto, Ontario, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Nothing in this section deprives a consumer of the protection of mandatory rules of the law of their country of habitual residence.

These terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the Subprocessors list, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements on the same subject. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder will continue in effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these terms without our written consent; we may assign them in connection with a corporate reorganization or sale.
