title: "Terms of Service" slug: terms awareness: most-aware internal: false description: "The terms that govern use of khorvad.com and the Parallax Test intake. Binding version ships with outside-counsel sign-off." published: "2026-04-24" no_cta: true

Terms of Service

These terms cover use of khorvad.com, the Parallax Test intake, and the Stump Session booking flow. They do not govern the commercial engagement — that is covered by a separate Master Services Agreement (MSA) signed before any paid work begins.

Plain-English first, legal-precise second, throughout.

Acceptance

By using this site or submitting information through it, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, stop using the site. We may update these terms; the Last updated date in the footer reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be called out in a dated change note at the top of this page.

Account and intake

You do not need an account to read the site. Submitting the Parallax Test intake or booking a Stump Session creates a working record in our systems, not an account in the consumer-software sense. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you submit. If an address or role changes mid-engagement, tell us and we will update the record.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the site to distribute malware, run automated scraping at a rate that degrades availability for other readers, or attempt to probe security controls without written authorization.
• Upload material you do not have the right to share (including confidential third-party data or personal data of individuals who have not consented).
• Misrepresent your identity, agency, or role to gain access to the Founding Cohort under false pretenses.

Vulnerability disclosures are welcome at security@khorvad.com. We do not pursue good-faith security research.

Payment

[PLACEHOLDER — pending signal-scaling-ops billing terms.] Paid engagements are governed by a separately signed MSA and Order Form. Pricing shown on /pricing is informational until a specific tier is contracted. No payment obligation arises from site use or Parallax Test submission.

Intellectual property

• Site content. Copy, design, illustrations, and source code on khorvad.com belong to Khorvad. You may reference, quote, or link without permission; you may not copy substantial portions, redistribute the site, or train generative models on it.
• Your data, your outputs. Materials you upload to the Parallax Test, and any Living Briefs or calibration outputs produced for you, belong to you. See the Portability Covenant — your twin and its outputs are yours, and remain yours if you leave. This overrides any standard-form "vendor retains all rights" language you may have seen elsewhere.
• Our methods. The calibration methodology, benchmark pattern library, and internal tooling belong to Khorvad. A portability export includes your outputs and your calibration weights; it does not include our internal methods.

No warranty on the site itself

The site is provided as-is. We try to keep it accurate and online. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, freedom from errors in published copy, or fitness for a particular purpose. Commercial warranties (performance, accuracy, delivery timeline) live in the MSA and apply to paid engagements only.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Khorvad's liability for any claim arising out of site use, Parallax Test submission, or Stump Session attendance is limited to direct damages up to $100. This is narrow on purpose — nothing of commercial consequence happens through the site. Engagement-scale liability limits live in the MSA and are negotiated per contract.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify Khorvad against claims arising from (1) material you submitted that you did not have the right to share, or (2) your misuse of the site in ways these terms prohibit. This does not extend to claims arising from our own negligence or willful misconduct.

Termination

You may stop using the site at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for any user who violates the acceptable-use section, with written notice where practical. Termination of site access does not affect rights or obligations under a signed MSA — those are governed by the MSA's own termination clauses.

Governing law

[PLACEHOLDER — Delaware, USA is the typical choice for a Delaware-incorporated entity; counsel may alter based on final legal entity structure.] Disputes are resolved in the state or federal courts seated in the chosen jurisdiction.

Relationship to the MSA

Nothing in these terms supersedes a signed Master Services Agreement. Where these terms and a signed MSA conflict on a commercial matter, the MSA governs. Where a topic is not covered by the MSA (site use, intake, booking), these terms govern.
