2. Ownership of content
Unless otherwise noted, all content on this Site is owned by behindrobotics.com or its licensors, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws:

- Editorials, news, and other written content — our articles, analysis, and editorial content are our own original work product. Third parties are welcome to quote brief excerpts with clear attribution and a link back to the source page on behindrobotics.com.
- Curated data and analytics — the organization, selection, verification, categorization, and analysis behind our database, charts, and the Investment Monitor represent our own original curatorial and analytical work, distinct from the public facts they draw on.
3. Acceptable use
You may browse and use the Site for personal, informational, and non-commercial reference purposes. You may not, without our prior written permission:

4. Not investment, financial, or legal advice
Content on this Site — including company profiles, funding and valuation figures, the Investment Monitor, market ticker data, and any editorial commentary — is provided for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute investment, financial, legal, or other professional advice, and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for any investment or business decision. Market data (including via our Finnhub integration) may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Always do your own research and consult a qualified professional before making financial decisions.
5. No warranty; data accuracy
We aggregate and curate information from public and third-party sources on a best-effort basis and correct errors when we become aware of them, but we make no warranty — express or implied — that any information on the Site is complete, accurate, current, or error-free. The Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind.
6. Third-party content and links
The Site may link to, embed, or reference third-party content (news sources, YouTube videos, market-data providers, and similar). We don't control and aren't responsible for third-party content, websites, or services, and linking to them doesn't imply our endorsement.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, behindrobotics.com and its owners/operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or data, arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or its content.
