You may use ContractShield only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these terms.

You may not use the service to transmit malicious code, spam, or infringe on intellectual property rights.

You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the service or impersonate others.

Bulk scraping, automated data collection, or reverse engineering of the platform is prohibited.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages.

Our total liability for any claim arising from your use of ContractShield shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitation of liability, so these limitations may not apply to you.

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the service.

This includes claims related to your content, violation of these terms, or infringement of third-party rights.

Small claims court actions are exempt from the arbitration requirement.

These terms constitute the entire agreement between you and ContractShield.

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in effect.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver.

You may not assign these terms without our written consent.
