- Our services are for academic research purposes only, and are not intended to diagnose a disease or other condition.

| Data safety and privacy |
|---|
We commit to taking reasonable steps to keep your submitted data confidential.
That said, submitted data must meet the following safety requirements.
- Users must be legally permitted to share the data with Inferentus, especially in accordance with any copyrights, data embargos and governmental restrictions.
- All human subject data must be fully anonymized and must not permit any identification of individuals, neither in itself nor in combination with other publicly available data.
- Data that might compromise national security if leaked, such as classified military data, are not accepted.
- Data must not have the potential to cause financial, emotional or physical harm to individuals, business or the environment if leaked. Examples include trade secrets or sensitive business information.
Data found to not meet the above requirements may be deleted and — if the situation is not promptly rectified by the user — all affected orders cancelled without reimbursement.
Further:
- All data must be formatted according to the instructions specific to each analysis. Incorrectly formatted data can lead to processing delays and — in rare circumstances — cancellation of affected orders without reimbursement.
- Inferentus should not be considered a primary storage location for submitted data, that is, users must maintain their own data backups. In particular, we may delete any submitted data and analysis results after 60 days following the completion of an order, or if a draft order has not been submitted for 60 days.
- Any physical materials mailed to us, such as data storage devices or documents, become our property and may be discarded at our discretion. We physically destroy any discarded storage devices to prevent data leaks.

| Orders and payment |
|---|
- By submitting an order, you agree to pay the full price stated at submission.
- We request payment either upon submission, or after computation has completed but prior to releasing results, or after releasing results, depending on the conditions of your particular order. At that point we say that payment becomes due. Payment instructions are provided in the invoice that we issue.
- Payment must be received within 30 days from the time it becomes due. Payment not received within this period is considered overdue, and may be pursued through legal means.
- Payment may be performed by anyone (i.e., not just the user submitting an order) with legal authority to do so, provided that they are located within the USA. For example, an order may be submitted by a researcher, and payment performed by a financial administrator at the researcher's institution.
- Payments via wire transfers may incur fees collected by the financial services provider. Please ensure that such fees are either directly collected from you (the sender), or otherwise increase the amount transferred accordingly so that we receive full payment after fees are subtracted.
