Terms of Service

Effective date: March 1, 2026  ·  Last updated: March 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the Cursus platform, website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”) provided by Cursus, Inc. (“Cursus,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Services, you (“Customer” or “you”) agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.

1. Services

Cursus provides an AI-native organizational intelligence and change management platform that includes organizational network analysis, behavioral signal aggregation, change impact modeling, leadership coaching tools, and AI-powered analytics. Access to the platform requires a valid subscription under a separate Order Form or Master Services Agreement. These Terms apply to all use of the Services, including any demo environments.

2. Accounts and Access

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must promptly notify us at security@cursusapp.io of any unauthorized use. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

3. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Services to monitor, track, or surveil individual employees beyond the aggregated, privacy-preserving capabilities the platform is designed to provide;
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from the Services;
  • Use the Services to violate any applicable law, including employment law, privacy law, or anti-discrimination law;
  • Resell, sublicense, or otherwise make the Services available to third parties without our written consent;
  • Introduce malware, viruses, or other harmful code into the Services or related infrastructure.

We reserve the right to investigate and suspend or terminate access for violations of this section.

4. Customer Data

“Customer Data” means all data, content, and information you submit to or generate through the Services. You retain all rights to your Customer Data. By using the Services, you grant Cursus a limited, non-exclusive license to process Customer Data solely as necessary to provide and improve the Services as described in our Privacy Policy and any applicable Data Processing Agreement.

We do not sell Customer Data. We do not use Customer Data to train general-purpose AI models without your explicit consent.

5. Data Processing and Privacy

Where the Services involve processing of personal data on your behalf, the parties will enter into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) that governs such processing. Our platform is designed with aggregation-first principles: individual behavioral data is never surfaced to managers or executives, and all metrics enforce minimum group-size thresholds before computation. See our Privacy Policy and Security page for more detail.

6. Intellectual Property

Cursus retains all rights, title, and interest in the Services, including all underlying software, models, algorithms, and documentation. Nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual property rights to you. You retain all rights in your Customer Data and any pre-existing materials you provide.

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Services, you grant Cursus a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use that feedback to improve the Services. We will not identify you as the source of any feedback without your permission.

7. Confidentiality

Each party agrees to keep the other’s confidential information strictly confidential and to use it only to fulfill obligations under these Terms. Each party will protect confidential information using at least the same degree of care it uses for its own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care. Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is publicly known, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law.

8. Warranties and Disclaimers

Cursus warrants that the Services will perform materially as described in applicable documentation. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE OTHERWISE PROVIDED “AS IS.” CURSUS DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. CURSUS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY SPECIFIC AI-GENERATED OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.

AI-generated outputs (including organizational analyses, forecasts, and coaching recommendations) are provided for informational purposes. They do not constitute legal, HR, financial, or professional advice. Decisions affecting employees or the organization should be reviewed by qualified professionals.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR BUSINESS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

EACH PARTY’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,000). THIS LIMITATION APPLIES REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY.

The limitations above do not apply to (i) either party’s indemnification obligations, (ii) a party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (iii) Customer’s payment obligations.

10. Indemnification

Each party will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other party from third-party claims arising from (a) its breach of these Terms, (b) its violation of applicable law, or (c) in Cursus’s case, any claim that the Services infringe a third-party intellectual property right. The indemnified party must promptly notify the indemnifying party of any claim and cooperate reasonably in the defense.

11. Term and Termination

These Terms remain in effect for the duration of your subscription. Either party may terminate for cause upon thirty (30) days written notice if the other party materially breaches these Terms and fails to cure within the notice period. Cursus may suspend access immediately if we reasonably believe your use poses a security risk or violates applicable law.

Upon termination, Cursus will make Customer Data available for export for thirty (30) days, after which it will be deleted in accordance with our data retention policy. Sections 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 13 survive termination.

12. Changes to the Services

We may update, modify, or discontinue features of the Services with reasonable notice. We will not make changes that materially reduce the core functionality of a paid subscription without offering you the option to exit your subscription without penalty.

13. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction in those courts. The parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating formal proceedings.

14. General

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with any applicable Order Form, MSA, and DPA, constitute the entire agreement between the parties regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements on this subject.

Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force.

No waiver. Failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of future enforcement rights.

Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

Updates to these Terms. We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via email or in-platform notice at least thirty (30) days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
