The Free plan provides limited access to the Service at no charge and continues until you upgrade or close the account. Paid plans offer a 7-day free trial. A valid payment method is required to start a paid trial. No charge is made when the trial begins; the payment method on file will be charged automatically when the trial ends unless you cancel before the trial end date. We will send you email reminders before the first charge. You may cancel at any time during the trial via Settings → Billing, in which case you will not be charged.

6. User Content
6.1 Ownership
You retain ownership of all content you upload to the Service ("User Content"), including deal data, notes, documents, and files.
6.2 License to Us
By uploading User Content, you grant us a limited license to store, process, and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you. We do not claim ownership of your User Content.
6.3 Responsibility
You are solely responsible for User Content. You represent that you have all necessary rights to upload and share your content through the Service.
7. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its design, features, code, and content (excluding User Content), is owned by Searcher OS and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works without our written permission.
8. Third-Party Services
The Service integrates with third-party services (Supabase, Stripe, OpenAI, etc.). Your use of these services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services.
9. Partner Referrals and Affiliate Compensation
The Service offers optional introductions to third-party providers, including SBA and conventional lenders, quality of earnings firms, and insurance providers. Requesting an introduction is free and is never required to use the Service.
Searcher OS may receive a referral fee, commission, or other compensation from some partners when you request an introduction, follow a partner link, or go on to do business with them. Some links in the Service and in emails we send are affiliate or tracked referral links. We disclose this at the point of each introduction and in Settings → Partners.
Compensation does not change who we recommend, what we tell you about a partner, or what you pay. Partners do not pay for placement, and a fee is never a condition of an introduction. We recommend speaking with two or three providers before you decide.
A partner introduction is not financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and Section 12.2 applies. We are not a party to, and are not responsible for, any agreement, service, rate, or outcome between you and a partner. Any agreement you reach with a partner is solely between you and that partner.
10. Communications
By creating an account, you agree that we may contact you by email at the address associated with your account.
10.1 Service Communications
Some emails are part of the Service and cannot be turned off while your account is open. These include receipts and billing notices, password resets and security alerts, trial and renewal reminders, changes to these Terms or our Privacy Policy, and replies to your support requests.
10.2 Marketing Communications
We also send newsletters, product updates, and promotional emails, which may include partner offers or introductions of the kind described in Section 9. This applies to all accounts, including Free accounts. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can also manage your preferences at Settings → Notifications. We honor opt-out requests promptly.
10.3 Effect of Opting Out
Opting out of marketing email does not close your account and does not stop the service communications described in Section 10.1. Opting out of one category of email does not affect the other.
11. Data Retention and Deletion
Upon account cancellation or deletion:
- Your data is retained for 6 months in case you reactivate
- After 6 months, your data is permanently deleted
- You may request immediate deletion by contacting support
- Backups may persist for up to 90 days
