2.3 Access to the platform is granted under a non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to use, limited to the period during which the account is active. Use of the platform does not transfer to the User any ownership rights over SAPIANS software, brand, content or methodologies.

- use the platform in a way that harms its availability or integrity for other users.
4.2 The User is solely responsible for the content they submit to the platform, including text and information processed by AI tools.

5.1 Some platform features use third-party artificial intelligence models — including, but not limited to, Google and OpenAI — to generate reports, analyses and recommendations.
5.2 AI-generated outputs are informational and support decision-making. They do not constitute legal, financial, medical or any regulated technical advice. Responsibility for applying any recommendation rests exclusively with the User.

6. Intellectual property
6.1 SAPIANS platform and content: The SAPIANS brand, software, methodologies, materials and editorial content produced by SAPIANS are its exclusive property and are protected by copyright, trademarks and other intellectual property rules. Use of the platform does not transfer these rights to the User.
6.2 User content: The User retains ownership of the data and content they submit to the platform. By submitting them, the User grants SAPIANS a non-exclusive, royalty-free license limited to what is necessary to operate, maintain and improve the contracted services.
6.3 Co-creation projects (venture studio model): When a User participates in a SAPIANS project as a specialist co-founder — with an equity stake —, intellectual property rights over the co-created product will be governed by the specific Co-Founding Agreement signed by the parties, which prevails over these Terms on matters it addresses more specifically. In the absence of a written agreement, the provisions of the Brazilian Civil Code regarding the joint creation of intellectual works apply. Use of the SAPIANS platform as a work tool in the project does not, in itself, imply assignment or sharing of IP between the parties.
