Quick summary

We aim to keep these terms clear and fair. The full terms below control if there is any conflict.

• Use the site lawfully and respectfully

• Limits of liability apply to the maximum allowed by law

1. Website use

You may use our website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to misuse the website, attempt to gain unauthorized access, interfere with its operation, or use it to transmit harmful or deceptive content.

2. Services and communications

We provide startup support and mentorship services. Any information we provide is general and educational. We may communicate with you via email or phone in response to your inquiry or to perform agreed services.

3. No professional advice

We are not a law firm, tax advisor, or investment advisor. Nothing on this website or in our services constitutes legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice. You are responsible for obtaining professional advice for decisions that require it.

Startup outcomes depend on many factors, including market conditions, competition, and your execution. We do not guarantee funding, revenue, user growth, or specific results.

5. Intellectual property

Website content, branding, and materials we provide are owned by or licensed to Northbridge unless stated otherwise. You may use templates and materials we provide for your internal business use. You may not resell, publish, or redistribute them as standalone products without written permission.

For paid services, scope, timing, fees, and payment terms will be confirmed in writing (for example, an order form or service agreement). Unless stated otherwise, invoices are payable within the timeframe specified on the invoice. Cancellation or rescheduling terms may vary by engagement and will be provided before you purchase.
