Counsel review draft · version 2026-07-25

Terms of Use

These draft terms are intended to govern access to the Payne Agentic Ventures (“PAV”) public website and entrepreneurship platform. They are not final legal language and must be reviewed and approved by licensed counsel before applicant workflows are enabled.

1. No offer, contract, or guaranteed result

Viewing the website; submitting interest; receiving an invitation; completing an application, interview, assessment, or action test; or receiving an internal status does not create an offer, contract, payment obligation, employment relationship, legal partnership, agency, ownership interest, funding commitment, revenue participation, guaranteed future engagement, or guaranteed result.

PAV does not guarantee contact, acceptance, funding, income, profitability, business success, or any particular recommendation or outcome.

2. Eligibility and minor restriction

Users must provide accurate eligibility information and use the service lawfully. During the pilot, people under 18 may submit only the initial interest form. They may not proceed into later applicant workflows unless and until PAV adopts a legally reviewed minor process.

3. Acceptable use and applicant responsibility

Users may not interfere with service security; attempt unauthorized access; impersonate another person; submit malware; misuse invitation, passwordless, or signed-access links; scrape protected records; or provide content they lack authority to submit. Applicants remain responsible for the accuracy of their responses, business decisions, legal compliance, professional advice, and independent verification.

4. Applications, interviews, files, and electronic signatures

Invited workflows may include structured questions, conditional routing, save-and-return access, deadlines, reminders, optional uploads, AI-assisted interviews, human review, assessments, verification, and action tests. PAV may request clarification, place a matter on hold, decline to proceed, or withdraw access consistent with applicable law and approved policy.

A typed electronic signature and versioned confirmations may be required for final submission. Counsel must approve the applicable consent-to-electronic-records, attribution, retention, and copy-delivery terms before this functionality is enabled for real applicants.

5. AI-assisted processing and human control

AI tools may assist with interviews, evidence organization, missing information, verification suggestions, and applicant-specific follow-up questions. AI does not automatically accept, decline, route, rank, or make PAV’s final decision. Authorized human reviewers control consequential outcomes. The separate AI-Processing Disclosure describes the intended boundaries.

6. Invitation-only fixed-fee pilot

Any paid pilot is optional, invitation-only, fixed-fee, time-limited, manually approved by Kyle, and begins only under a separate, counsel-reviewed written agreement. No website content, applicant status, assessment, interview, or “paid pilot” label creates a payment obligation or paid engagement.

There is no revenue participation during the initial pilot. The website and platform do not establish revenue percentages, formulas, expected returns, revenue obligations, or revenue-participation terms.

7. Outside-scope ventures and resources

During the pilot, PAV supports only lawful, ordinary ventures within PAV’s demonstrated competence. Scope decisions concern venture activity and risk, not applicant identity or protected characteristics. Borderline matters are placed on hold for Kyle’s manual review and legal review when appropriate; AI cannot automatically accept or decline them.

Any outside resources are publicly available, applicant-initiated, non-endorsed, free from referral fees, free from automated matching, and do not receive applicant data from PAV.

8. Intellectual property and feedback

Applicants retain rights they lawfully hold in their submitted materials. They grant PAV only the permissions reasonably necessary to operate, secure, review, and administer the requested workflow. PAV retains rights in its platform, questions, processes, brand, and internal materials. Counsel must finalize licenses, feedback treatment, confidentiality expectations, and any work-product terms.

9. Availability, security, and suspension

PAV may maintain, change, suspend, or discontinue platform access and may revoke compromised credentials or access links. The service may experience outages, provider failures, or security limitations. Users should retain their own copies of information they are legally entitled to keep and should not submit unnecessary sensitive material.

10. Disclaimers and liability

Counsel must draft the permitted warranty disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and remedy provisions. Nothing in the final terms may exclude rights or liabilities that cannot lawfully be excluded, and nothing should imply guaranteed results.

11. Governing law and disputes

Counsel completion required: governing law, venue, informal-resolution procedure, arbitration or court process if any, class-action language if appropriate, small-claims treatment, and jurisdiction-specific consumer rights.

12. Contact and changes

Questions may be sent to sales@payneagenticventures.com. Counsel must approve the effective date, notice procedure, acceptance mechanism, severability, assignment, waiver, survival, and entire- agreement provisions. This draft has no legal effective date.
