Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern access to and use of the Sentimentick website, applications, dashboards, alerts, application programming interfaces ("API"), and related services (collectively, the "Service") operated by Sentimentick, Inc. ("Sentimentick," "we," "us," or "our").

By accessing, registering for, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Service.

If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" includes that organization.

Sentimentick is a software-as-a-service platform that provides informational tools for monitoring public market conversation, ticker attention metrics, sentiment indicators, market narratives, source-backed context, watchlists, alerts, and related analytics.

Depending on your plan (Basic, Pro, Enterprise, or other offerings we make available), you may receive varying levels of access to dashboards, search and filter tools, narrative detail views, evidence or source references, alert configuration, API access, usage quotas, and administrative features.

The Service is provided for informational, educational, and research purposes only. It is intended to help users observe how public discussion, news, and related sources may relate to securities and market themes. It is not a substitute for independent judgment, professional advice, or direct verification of underlying sources.

Sentimentick does not execute trades, hold customer funds, clear transactions, or operate as a marketplace for securities.

SENTIMENTICK DOES NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL, INVESTMENT, TRADING, LEGAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING, OR OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.

Nothing on the Service—including sentiment scores, narrative rankings, attention metrics, heat or acceleration measures, summaries, briefs, watchlists, alerts, evidence feeds, charts, exports, or API outputs—constitutes a recommendation, solicitation, or offer to buy, sell, hold, short, or otherwise transact in any security, derivative, cryptocurrency, exchange-traded fund, option, or other financial instrument.

• Sentiment indicators and attention metrics reflect analytical processing of available sources; they are not trade instructions.
• Market narratives describe themes observed in public discussion; they may be incomplete, contested, or wrong.
• Alerts and notifications are informational notices only; delivery does not imply that any action is appropriate for you.
• Source-backed context is provided for research transparency; we do not warrant the accuracy or fairness of underlying third-party content.

You are solely responsible for your own investment and trading decisions. You should consult a qualified, licensed professional adviser before making financial decisions. Sentimentick does not consider your personal financial situation, investment objectives, risk tolerance, time horizon, liquidity needs, tax status, regulatory constraints, or existing portfolio.

Sentimentick is not registered or licensed as an investment adviser, broker-dealer, municipal securities dealer, government securities broker or dealer, securities exchange, alternative trading system, transfer agent, clearing agency, futures commission merchant, commodity trading adviser, commodity pool operator, rating agency, or similar regulated financial entity in any jurisdiction, and nothing in the Service should be interpreted as implying such status.

• We do not provide individualized investment advice or portfolio recommendations tailored to you.
• We do not solicit or effect securities transactions on your behalf.
• We do not receive transaction-based compensation for recommending or effecting trades in any specific security.
• We do not custody assets, manage money, or provide personalized suitability analysis.

The Service may incorporate or reference public sources, licensed or third-party market data, news, social discussion, filings, and other materials. All such information is subject to material limitations.

• Data may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, mislabeled, duplicated, or temporarily unavailable.
• Public-source content may include rumors, speculation, humor, sarcasm, promotional material, bot activity, spam, coordinated campaigns, or biased opinions.
• Ticker symbols and company names may be ambiguous; automated processing may associate content with the wrong issuer.
• Sentiment and narrative classifications may be wrong, stale, or misleading in fast-moving markets.
• Scores and rankings can change quickly and may differ materially from other methodologies.
• Past sentiment, attention, or narrative movement does not predict future price performance or investment results.

Sentimentick does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, merchantability for your use case, or continuous availability of any data or analytical output.

Some Service outputs may be generated, assisted, ranked, summarized, clustered, scored, or classified using automated systems, including machine-learning or other algorithmic methods.

• Automated systems may misunderstand context, sarcasm, irony, cultural nuance, financial terminology, or source reliability.
• Summaries and briefs may omit material facts or overemphasize volatile discussion.
• Scoring formulas, models, data pipelines, source weighting, and classification rules may change without notice.
• Outputs should be independently verified before you rely on them for any decision.

Sentimentick does not represent that automated outputs will improve your investment results, reduce risk, or produce any particular research outcome.

Sentimentick does not guarantee profits, trading success, alpha, market outperformance, loss avoidance, alert timeliness, data continuity, or any other financial or operational outcome.

Investing and trading involve substantial risk, including the possible loss of principal. You assume all risk associated with decisions you make using, or in connection with, information from the Service.

• Paid subscriptions renew automatically for the selected billing period unless canceled in accordance with applicable billing flows.
• Fees, features, and quotas may change upon reasonable notice where required by law or contract.
• Enterprise customers may be subject to a separate written agreement that controls in the event of conflict.
