OPEN CITRINATION TERMS OF SERVICE

Thank you for your interest in Open Citrination, the open, cloud-based, artificial intelligence platform service for materials and chemicals located at citrination.com and developed by Citrine Informatics, Inc. (“Citrine”) solely for academic, non-profit, or non-commercial use. Your access to and use of Open Citrination and its related services are governed by, and are conditioned upon, your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Open Citrination Terms of Service (the “Terms”) and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules, and regulations. Citrine is willing to permit you to access and use Open Citrination only upon the condition that you accept all of the terms contained in these Terms.
You may not use Open Citrination for any commercial or for-profit purposes, except as expressly provided in these Terms. For example, employees of a university may use Open Citrination to perform academic research, but may not use Open Citrination to perform work as a contractor on projects for a commercial, for-profit company that is not an Authorized Entity (as defined below). Please contact Citrine at privacy@citrine.io for more information about access and use of Citrination, the version of the platform service for commercial or for-profit purposes.
BY CLICKING ON THE CHECKBOX MARKED “I AGREE TO THE TERMS OF SERVICE” OR BY ACCESSING OR USING OPEN CITRINATION, YOU AGREE TO, AND WILL BE LEGALLY BOUND BY, THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THESE TERMS.
IF OPEN CITRINATION IS TO BE USED BY OR ON BEHALF OF AN ACADEMIC INSTITUTION, AN ACADEMIC OR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY, OR OTHER ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY, AND NOT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, THE INDIVIDUAL EXPRESSING ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT HE OR SHE HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND (AND IS BINDING) SUCH ACADEMIC OR NON-PROFIT INSTITUTION OR ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY TO THESE TERMS, AND THE TERMS “YOU” OR “YOUR” SHALL REFER TO SUCH ACADEMIC OR NON-PROFIT INSTITUTION OR ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY. IF THE INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT USE OR AUTHORIZE OTHERS TO USE OPEN CITRINATION. IF YOU ARE USING OPEN CITRINATION AS AN INDIVIDUAL ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, THE TERMS “YOU” OR “YOUR” REFER ONLY TO YOU, AND NOT TO YOUR ACADEMIC OR NON-PROFIT INSTITUTION, ORGANIZATION, OR ENTITY.
Please note that Citrine may modify these Terms at any time, in its sole discretion. If we do so, we’ll let you know either by posting the updated Terms on Open Citrination or through other communications. It’s important that you review the Terms whenever we update them or you use Open Citrination. If you continue to use Open Citrination after we have posted updated Terms, you are agreeing to be bound by the updated Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by the updated Terms, you may not use Open Citrination anymore. Because Open Citrination is evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Open Citrination service, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.
