Commercial Disclosure

The initial offering is free. Paid orders are not available under this notice until actual prices and the purchase flow are complete. These disclosures do not open paid sales or authorize a charge.

1. Provider and contact

U.S. correspondence: c/o Momiji, 6080 Center Dr, Suite 600, Los Angeles, CA 90045. The provider is the Japanese company identified above.

2. Services and availability

SciGround provides the research analysis and verification services identified for your access or purchased plan. Supported inputs, capabilities, client requirements and any usage or capacity limits must be shown for the applicable offer. See the Terms of Service, setup guide and paid-service conditions.

The initial offering is free. Your chosen AI environment, internet connection or card issuer may have its own charges; those are separate from Licklider’s charges. Visiting the site, connecting an AI or accepting the free-service Terms does not authorize payment or conversion to a paid plan.

3. Prices, taxes and additional charges

Paid offers will use USD and combine monthly or annual subscriptions with prepaid usage credits. The applicable offer and purchase confirmation must identify the actual price or calculation, included usage, credit packages and consumption rules, applicable tax and total payable before purchase. Where tax-inclusive price display is required, the displayed price must include that tax. Licklider does not add a separate handling or processing fee.

Prices, included amounts, credit units and package amounts are not yet set by this notice. No paid order may be accepted while those disclosures are incomplete. No fixed tax rate or external card-issuer exchange fee is represented here.

4. Payment and commencement

Payment is by credit card through Stripe only. Subscription fees are charged in advance at purchase and then on the monthly or annual renewal dates disclosed before purchase. Credit purchases and separately authorized automatic top-ups are charged when the purchase is made. A subscription or one credit purchase does not itself enable automatic top-ups.

For an available paid offer, service is made available automatically and immediately after successful payment and completion of required authentication. No manual activation waiting period is part of the selected offering. This commitment must be supported by the actual payment/access flow before paid sales open.

5. Renewal and cancellation

Monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically on the disclosed cycle until you cancel. To cancel ordinary future renewals, use the online contract-management page supplied with the paid access. Complete cancellation before the next renewal charge; the page must show the effective result and the end of the paid period. Cancellation stops future renewals when completed, and access ordinarily continues through the already-paid period.

Email and telephone are not the standard channels for ordinary subscription cancellation. This does not limit a legally effective notice, mandatory cancellation or termination right, or a complaint or rights request. A service failure must not be used to obstruct a legally required cancellation. Account closure and research-data erasure are separate from stopping a subscription.

No paid order may be accepted until the online management route is working and its actual link and instructions are supplied before purchase. If an offer has a minimum commitment, application deadline, special sales restriction or other disadvantage on cancellation, it must be disclosed before purchase; none is created by this notice.

6. Credits and refunds

Purchased credits have no time-based expiry. Spending requires an applicable active paid plan, including the remainder of an already-paid term after cancellation. The unused purchased balance is preserved when the plan becomes inactive and is usable again on resubscription; cancellation alone does not forfeit it.

The same balance-preservation rule applies to account closure. Only the minimum ownership and balance records needed to honor the balance are retained, subject to applicable privacy rights and legal obligations. Restoration after re-registration requires identity/authority verification. It does not restore erased research data.

Purchased credits cannot be voluntarily refunded, exchanged for cash or transferred to another person, except where law requires otherwise. Unused subscription time and service interruptions do not carry a separate contractual refund entitlement. Legally required refunds, repayment, termination, damages and remedies for nonperformance remain available. The separate paid-service conditions explain these boundaries.

7. Language and purchase confirmation

Service information, ordinary purchasing, payment and legal documents are in English. The provider’s registered name and representative’s official name are retained as identifiers. The purchase confirmation must clearly show the actual order, total, payment timing, service period, renewal and cancellation conditions, and allow the customer to review and correct the order before confirming.
