Municipal Compliance Pipeline — Terms of Service (DRAFT v00)

NOT LEGAL ADVICE — ATTORNEY REVIEW REQUIRED. Non-attorney working draft for counsel to refine. The disclaimer and limitation-of-liability sections in particular should be reviewed against the standalone Disclaimer doc so they are consistent.

Operator: Winschel Environmental, LLC ("we"). Effective: [DATE]. By creating an account or using Municipal Compliance Pipeline ("MCP," the "Service"), you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

MCP provides access to aggregated public environmental/regulatory data, derived compliance indicators, search/mapping tools, an analyst chat feature, and subscription email alerts, for business and professional use.

2. Accounts

Sign-in is by email magic-link. You are responsible for maintaining access to the email account you register and for activity under your account. Notify us of any unauthorized use.

3. Subscriptions, billing, and cancellation

• Paid plans (e.g., MCP Base, $69/month, and premium tiers including chat) are billed in advance via Stripe on a recurring basis until cancelled.
• You may cancel at any time via the customer portal; access continues through the end of the current paid period. (Counsel: state refund policy — e.g., no prorated refunds.)
• We may change pricing on renewal with advance notice.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to: scrape or bulk-export the Service beyond provided export features; resell or redistribute the data as a competing dataset; reverse-engineer the Service; use it unlawfully; or share a single-seat login across an organization beyond agreed terms.

5. Data accuracy and no professional advice

The Service relies on third-party public data that may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, and includes computed/derived indicators that are interpretations, not official determinations. The Service is informational and does not constitute legal, regulatory, engineering, financial, or professional advice. See the Disclaimer, incorporated by reference. Verify against official sources before acting.

6. Intellectual property

Underlying public data remains public. The Service's compilation, derived indicators, scoring methodology, software, and presentation are owned by Winschel Environmental, LLC. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service per these Terms.

7. Warranty disclaimer

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or lost profits/opportunities, arising from use of the Service. (Counsel to set aggregate cap — commonly fees paid in the prior 12 months.)

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your misuse of the Service or violation of these Terms. (Counsel to scope.)

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate access for breach of these Terms.

11. Changes

We may update these Terms; material changes will be posted with a new effective date and, where appropriate, emailed.

12. Governing law

Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. (Counsel: venue/dispute-resolution clause.)
