Users may upload, create, store, or share content through FuseCake, including startup ideas, text, messages, logos, images, documents, files, brand assets, and other materials ("User Content").

You retain ownership of the intellectual property rights you hold in your User Content.

By uploading or storing User Content on FuseCake, you grant FuseCake a limited, non-exclusive right to host, store, process, transmit, and display that content solely as reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Service.

You are responsible for ensuring that you have the necessary rights and permissions to upload and use any content you submit.

Workspace owners may control the administration and management of organizational data contained within their workspace, subject to applicable law and any agreements between the workspace owner and its members.

FuseCake does not determine ownership disputes between workspace members, employees, founders, contractors, or organizations.

Users and organizations are responsible for establishing their own agreements regarding intellectual property ownership where appropriate.

FuseCake understands that users may enter startup ideas and business-related information into the platform.

FuseCake will handle personal and platform data in accordance with its Privacy Policy.

FuseCake does not claim ownership of startup ideas submitted by users.

Users remain responsible for protecting their intellectual property through appropriate legal measures where necessary.

FuseCake may provide features that use artificial intelligence or automated systems.

AI-generated information may include startup validation results, recommendations, analysis, market insights, branding suggestions, content, or other outputs.

AI-generated outputs may be incomplete, outdated, inaccurate, or unsuitable for a particular purpose.

You should independently evaluate important information before making business, financial, legal, investment, hiring, or strategic decisions.

FuseCake does not guarantee the accuracy or reliability of AI-generated outputs.

Use of AI-generated information is at your own discretion and risk.

Startup validation scores, reports, recommendations, and other information should be treated as informational tools rather than guarantees.

Users remain responsible for their own business decisions.

FuseCake may provide private workspace communication and messaging features.

Private workspace communications are intended for authorized members of the relevant workspace. Depending on workspace permissions and functionality, workspace founders or authorized administrators may have access to communications within their workspace.

FuseCake does not routinely access or review private workspace communications.

Users may request or initiate deletion of their accounts.

When an account and associated workspace are scheduled for deletion, certain information may remain recoverable for up to 30 days before permanent deletion from active systems.

Deletion of an account may result in permanent loss of workspace information.

FuseCake is currently available free of charge.

FuseCake may introduce paid plans, subscriptions, or premium features in the future.

If paid services are introduced, applicable pricing, billing terms, renewal conditions, and cancellation or refund policies will be presented before a user purchases a paid service.

The introduction of paid features does not automatically require existing users to purchase them unless clearly communicated.
