Terms of Service
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the SentRate public website at sentimentratings.com, native mobile applications (“Clients”) Company distributes through authorized storefronts or other channels identified in product metadata, published policies, support correspondence, and other pathways described in our Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”). If we introduce accounts, optional cloud services, subscriptions, programmatic interfaces, or other networked offerings beyond what the Privacy Policy then describes, we will update these Terms and the Privacy Policy before those features apply to you.
The Services are provided by Sentiment Ratings Group LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By visiting the website, installing or using Clients, emailing addresses we publish (such as legal or support inboxes), or continuing to use the Services after we post revisions to these Terms, you agree to the Terms then in effect. If you do not agree, stop using the website, uninstall Clients, and do not reinstall them.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years of age (or the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, if higher) to use the Services. By using the Services, you represent that you meet this requirement. If you use the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
2. Clients and Services
Subject to these Terms and any storefront rules that apply to Clients you download, Company grants you a limited, revocable, non exclusive, non transferable license to access the website and install and operate Clients for lawful purposes consistent with documented behavior.
You agree to use the Services lawfully, to notify Company when you reasonably believe unauthorized access or misuse occurred, and to follow applicable storefront or platform policies for Clients you install. If Company offers accounts or credentials in the future, you are responsible for safeguarding them.
Preview or pre release environments may exist. Features and availability may change. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error free operation. Sections 8 and 9 provide related disclaimers and liability caps.
We may suspend, restrict, modify, or discontinue all or part of the Services when reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, addressing material breaches of these Terms, or continuity of operations, with notice where practical unless immediate action is required.

- Scrape, harvest, or automate access to the Services in a manner that impairs performance or violates our robots.txt or technical restrictions.
- Misrepresent your identity or affiliation.
We may suspend or terminate access for conduct we reasonably believe violates these Terms or creates risk.

5. Your content
“Your Content” means information and materials you create or store locally in Clients, export from Clients where features permit, or voluntarily transmit to Company (for example email to addresses we publish, feedback, onboarding questionnaires when offered, or diagnostic bundles you choose to send).

6. Sensitive information
You are solely responsible for evaluating whether materials you store on your device or send Company qualify as regulated health, financial, biometric, credential, confidential, privileged, classified, trade secret, export controlled, sanctions restricted, workplace safeguarded, or similarly sensitive information.
Operational or technical safeguards referenced in Privacy materials are illustrative and do not replace tailored legal review, individualized security architecture, auditing, counsel, or compliance programs your employer or regulators may require.
7. Third party services
The Services may link to or integrate third party websites or services. We are not responsible for third party content, practices, or policies. Your use of third party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms.
8. Disclaimers

13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the U.S. state in which Sentiment Ratings Group LLC is formed, without regard to conflict of law principles, except where preempted by U.S. federal law. You agree that courts in that state (and applicable U.S. federal courts sitting therein) shall have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services, subject to applicable law requiring otherwise.
14. General
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Company regarding the Services and supersede prior agreements on the subject. If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
