Terms of Use

1. Operator and scope

Impact Mechanica, Inc. (also “Impact Mechanica”, “we” or “us”) is a Delaware corporation based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. These Terms set out the conditions for using this website and its company, scientific, product-development and commercial information.

The website currently provides information and a tool that prepares an email draft in your email application. It does not offer product purchases, reservations, public programme registration, beta access, research enrolment or an online head-scanning service.

2. Using the website and these Terms

Please read these Terms before using the website. If you do not accept the conditions set out here, discontinue use. Any contractual effect of these Terms is subject to applicable requirements for notice, agreement and enforceability. Access does not create an account, purchase or recorded acceptance.

These Terms do not override mandatory legal rights. A separate agreement signed or otherwise validly accepted by the relevant parties governs the matters it covers. Future software, transactions, studies or registrations may require their own terms and affirmative agreement.

3. Permitted use and restrictions

You may access the website for lawful personal, professional and internal business evaluation. You may link to public pages and use material as allowed by applicable law. Retain attribution and rights notices when making a permitted copy.

You must not unlawfully access systems or data, bypass security, disrupt services, introduce harmful code, impersonate others, misrepresent an association with us, or infringe another person’s rights. Do not reproduce, redistribute or commercially exploit protected content, designs or branding without the required permission. Automated extraction or redistribution is restricted to the extent we have the legal right to restrict it; legitimate search indexing and activities permitted by mandatory law are not prohibited by this clause.

4. Intellectual property

Website materials may include branding, text, software, product concepts, computational geometry, illustrations and licensed or third-party content. Rights belong to Impact Mechanica or the relevant rights holders to the extent those rights exist. Access grants no ownership, patent right or implied commercial licence in underlying technology or protected material.

Do not use Impact Mechanica, D03 Directional Ridge, Soft Programmable Morphology or TrueContourAI names or branding to imply endorsement, origin or affiliation without permission. References to other organisations and scientific work do not transfer their rights. We do not assert exclusive rights over third-party material, facts or material that is not legally protectable. This notice does not create a patent or establish the copyright status of AI-generated imagery.

5. Nonpublic technology and confidential discussions

Publishing selected information does not grant access to or a licence over nonpublic source code, engineering data, designs or know-how. Information openly disclosed on the website is not made confidential merely by these Terms.

Please arrange an appropriate separate written confidentiality agreement before exchanging confidential technical information. A website visit or ordinary email enquiry does not itself create an NDA, fiduciary relationship or obligation of confidentiality, except where a separate agreement or applicable law provides otherwise.

6. Enquiries and unsolicited submissions

Send only information you are entitled to share. Do not include confidential inventions, proprietary designs, health information, anatomical scans or sensitive personal details in an initial enquiry. The form prepares a draft; you decide whether to send it.

An unsolicited idea, proposal or email does not by itself create an obligation to review, use, pay for or exclusively negotiate about it, or establish an accepted collaboration. We do not take ownership of your submission merely because you send it. We may use ordinary enquiry information to assess and respond to the enquiry, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable rights. Any wider use, licence, evaluation or transfer should be agreed separately.

7. Information, research and professional advice

Website content is general information, not individual medical, clinical, sports-safety, engineering-certification, legal, financial or investment advice. Obtain appropriate professional advice for your circumstances. Do not use a concept image or research summary as a basis for safety-critical decisions.

Third-party studies apply to their own products, populations and conditions; they do not establish D03 performance. Technical descriptions and future objectives may change as evidence develops. We may correct or update information. These qualifications do not remove our responsibility for statements or duties imposed by law.

8. Products, concepts and future capabilities

D03 and TrueContourAI are in development. D03 is not available to buy and is not represented as approved for competitive rugby use. No concussion prevention, clinical benefit, validated personalised fit or complete AI-enabled manufacturing workflow is promised.

Read the Product Development & Safety Disclaimer and Forward-Looking Statements alongside the immediate qualifications on product and Engineering pages. Separate agreements and appropriate approvals are required for future physical evaluations or prototype use.

9. External sites and services

External scientific, sporting and institutional links are provided for information. A link alone does not imply endorsement, affiliation or approval. External services, including your email application, have separate terms and privacy practices. We do not operate those services and cannot guarantee their availability or content. This does not exclude responsibilities that applicable law places on us for our own conduct or provider choices.

10. Commercial and investment discussions

This website is not an offer to sell securities, a solicitation to buy securities, an investment recommendation or a guarantee of financial returns. An enquiry creates no commitment to accept investment or enter a partnership. Any investment, licence, supply arrangement or collaboration requires appropriate separate documentation and applicable legal compliance.

11. Availability and warranties

The website is provided for information on an “as available” basis. Interruptions, errors and security incidents can occur; continuous access, error-free content and freedom from harmful code cannot be guaranteed. We may change, suspend or restrict access where reasonably necessary, subject to applicable law.

To the extent lawful, we exclude implied warranties concerning this informational website’s availability, completeness or suitability for a particular purpose. No exclusion overrides an express binding commitment, statutory guarantee or duty that cannot lawfully be excluded.

12. Liability and mandatory rights

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential business losses, including lost profit, lost business opportunity or business interruption, arising from use of or inability to use this informational website. We do not assume responsibility for losses caused solely by your unlawful misuse or an independent third party’s conduct where we have no legal responsibility for that conduct.

These limits do not exclude liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, wilful misconduct, death or personal injury caused by negligence where exclusion is prohibited, or any other non-excludable duty, remedy or consumer right. They do not waive product-safety obligations or determine liability for a future physical product. Direct-loss claims and remedies remain subject to applicable law; these Terms set no monetary liability cap.

13. Responsibility for unlawful business misuse

If you use the website in a business capacity, and only where enforceable, you agree to reimburse reasonable direct losses and reasonable legal costs arising from a third-party claim finally determined by a competent court to result from your intentional unlawful misuse of the website or infringement of another person’s intellectual-property rights through that misuse. Recovery is limited to the loss attributable to your conduct, without double recovery.

This provision does not require you to fund a defence in advance, cover our own negligence or wrongdoing, or indemnify us for unrelated claims. It does not impose an additional indemnity on consumers or restrict mandatory statutory protections.

14. Applicable law and disputes

Applicable law determines the parties’ rights, remedies and the courts with jurisdiction. These Terms do not impose binding arbitration, a jury-trial waiver, a class-action waiver or an exclusive forum, and do not remove protections available under mandatory consumer or privacy law in your jurisdiction.

Please contact us about a concern so we can seek to resolve it. Contacting us is not a condition of exercising a legal right or meeting a statutory deadline.

15. Changes, separate agreements and contact

We may update the website and these Terms. The version and date above identify the current text. Material changes will be brought to your attention where required, and additional agreement will be obtained where legally necessary. We do not purport to impose material contractual changes retroactively merely by updating a page.

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue only to the extent lawful and consistent with their intended effect. A failure to enforce a provision on one occasion does not itself waive later rights. Separate valid agreements prevail for their subject matter. Privacy information governs how we handle personal information; it is not a substitute for contractual agreement.
