CrisisBrief produces automated, AI-assisted briefs from open-source material. The Service and its output are provided for informational and research purposes only and are subject to the limitations described in our Disclaimer, which forms part of these Terms.

3. No reliance

You acknowledge that the output may be inaccurate or incomplete and that you use it at your own risk. You are solely responsible for independently verifying any information before relying on or acting upon it. You agree not to use the Service for safety-of-life, emergency, or other high-stakes decisions.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation;
• attempt to disrupt, overload, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorized access to the Service or its infrastructure;
• scrape, resell, or redistribute the output as if it were verified intelligence or your own original reporting;
• use the Service to harass, endanger, or harm others.

5. Accounts

If the Service requires an account, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.

6. Intellectual property

The Service’s software, design, and branding are owned by CrisisBrief and protected by applicable law. Open-source material referenced or summarized within briefs remains the property of its respective publishers; CrisisBrief claims no ownership over it.

7. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, CrisisBrief shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages, or for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Service.
