Terms

Informational use only

Website content is provided for general business and educational purposes. It is not accounting, tax, legal, investment, financing, valuation, or other professional advice, and it should not be treated as a substitute for advice based on your company’s specific facts.

No professional relationship

Using the website, submitting an inquiry, or receiving a response does not create a client, fiduciary, advisory, or other professional relationship. An engagement begins only after Startup Partners and the client sign a written agreement defining the services and responsibilities.

Interactive tools and estimates

Runway Navigator, diagnostic scans, readiness maps, builders, and comparison tools use simplified assumptions and user-provided inputs. Results are illustrative, may be incomplete, and are not predictions, guarantees, offers, recommendations, or company-specific forecasts. You remain responsible for validating inputs, assumptions, and decisions.

Acceptable use

• Use the website only for lawful purposes
• Do not attempt to disrupt, probe, scrape at unreasonable volume, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the website or its systems
• Do not submit malicious code, misleading information, or content that violates another person’s rights
• Do not present website output as audited, certified, or endorsed by Startup Partners

Intellectual property

The website’s text, design, brand elements, frameworks, and original resources are owned by Startup Partners or used with permission. You may use public tools and print results for your own internal business purposes. You may not republish, sell, remove attribution from, or create a competing commercial product from the website content without written permission.

Third-party links

The website may link to LinkedIn, Amazon, and other third-party services. Startup Partners does not control and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, or terms. A link does not necessarily constitute an endorsement.

Availability and disclaimers

The website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Startup Partners disclaims warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted availability. We may change, suspend, or discontinue website features at any time.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Startup Partners will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or lost-profit damages arising from use of—or reliance on—the website. Where liability cannot be excluded, it will be limited to the amount, if any, you paid specifically to use the website during the twelve months preceding the claim.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms by posting a revised version. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Questions may be submitted through the Startup Partners contact page.
