We may amend these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated by email to active subscribers. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

Nature of the Service — Research, Not Advice

Lacuna provides forensic-financial research. It is not investment advice, brokerage, accounting, legal, or tax advice. Reports and scores are research opinions based on publicly available information and AI-assisted analysis. They do not constitute a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security.

You are solely responsible for your investment decisions. Consult a licensed advisor before acting on any information presented through the Service.

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. You agree to provide accurate registration information and to keep it current. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account and must keep your credentials confidential.

Subscription and Billing

Paid tiers grant access to additional reports, sector intelligence, and Weekly Briefs as described on the Pricing page. Billing is processed by our payment provider on a recurring basis until you cancel. You may cancel at any time from your Subscriber Profile; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
