Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the minimum age of legal majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Platform.

By using the Platform, you represent that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement and that all information you provide is accurate and complete.

04

Account Registration

Certain features require an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.

You must notify Osmium Labs immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

Osmium Labs reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

05

Vendor Obligations

Vendors who submit capabilities warrant that they have the right to list and sell those capabilities and that the capabilities do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of any third party.

All submitted capabilities are subject to lab testing. Vendors acknowledge that lab results are permanent and publicly recorded in Aegis. Vendors cannot edit, hide, or delete Aegis entries.

Vendors are solely responsible for the accuracy of descriptions, pricing, and metadata associated with their capabilities.

06

Buyer Obligations

Buyers are responsible for reviewing Aegis records and capability details before making a purchase.

Purchases are final unless otherwise stated at the point of sale. Refund policies, where applicable, will be presented during checkout.

Buyers must not use purchased capabilities in a manner that violates applicable law or these Terms.

07

Pricing & Payments

All prices are displayed in the currency indicated at the point of sale. Osmium Labs processes payments through third-party payment processors.

Osmium Labs reserves the right to modify pricing at any time. Existing transactions are not affected by price changes.

Fees, commissions, and payout terms for vendors are governed by the Vendor Agreement presented during onboarding.

08

Lab Testing & Aegis Record

Capabilities submitted for testing are evaluated by one or more of the Platform's labs (Helios, Astatine, Nebula). Testing results are permanent and cannot be removed, modified, or hidden by any party.

Osmium Labs does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of lab results. Results are provided "as is" for informational purposes.

Aegis records are derived from lab results and are publicly accessible. Vendors and buyers acknowledge that these records are intended to be transparent and immutable.

09

Intellectual Property

All content on the Platform — including text, graphics, logos, trademarks, and software — is the property of Osmium Labs or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

Vendors retain ownership of their submitted capabilities unless a separate agreement states otherwise.

By submitting a capability, vendors grant Osmium Labs a non-exclusive, worldwide license to test, evaluate, and display the capability and its associated lab results for the purpose of operating the Platform.

10

Prohibited Conduct

Users must not: (a) attempt to circumvent lab testing or Aegis records; (b) submit capabilities designed to deceive, harm, or exploit; (c) interfere with the operation of the Platform or its labs; (d) use automated tools to access the Platform in violation of these Terms; (e) misrepresent identity or affiliation.

11

Disclaimers

The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

Osmium Labs does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Lab results and Aegis records are provided for informational purposes. Osmium Labs does not endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any capability listed on the Platform.

12

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Osmium Labs shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to use of the Platform.

Osmium Labs' total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or use of the Platform shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid to Osmium Labs in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).

14

Modifications to These Terms
