6. AI-Generated Content

AI responses may contain errors or inaccuracies. Synapnode is a study aid — it is not a replacement for professional advice. Always verify AI output for high-stakes decisions. Exam content is guidance only.

7. Intellectual Property

Synapnode owns the platform, code, design, and branding. You own the content you create (notes, essays, flashcards). By using the platform you grant Synapnode a limited licence to process your content to deliver the service. AI responses are provided for personal educational use only.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Synapnode is not liable for indirect or consequential damages. Our total liability in any 12-month period is limited to the amount you paid us in that period. Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death, personal injury, negligence, or fraud.

9. Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or any other applicable UK consumer legislation.

10. Termination

You can delete your account at any time via Settings. We may terminate your account for breach of these Terms. Data will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

12. Updates

We will give 30 days' notice of material changes to these Terms via email and an in-platform notice.
