A Legal Disclaimer

Welcome to My Startup Shield™. By accessing our website or participating in our services, you agree to the following terms and conditions. These terms exist to ensure a transparent, ethical, and respectful experience for all founders, innovators, and partners who engage with our platform.

At its core, this page explains how we operate, what you can expect from us, and what’s expected of you.

My Startup Shield™ is a founder-focused platform based in Arizona that helps startups protect their ideas before they pitch. We provide educational resources, strategic discovery sessions, and guided filing workshops designed to help founders understand, secure, and strengthen their intellectual property.

However, it is important to note that My Startup Shield™ is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation. Any information shared through our website, sessions, or materials is for general informational and educational purposes only.

Innovation moves quickly, and so do we. The tools, resources, workshops, and consulting services offered by My Startup Shield™ may evolve over time as we expand and adapt to the needs of our founders and partners. We may revise, update, or remove portions of our offerings or website content without prior notice.

All fees and payments for My Startup Shield™ services — including but not limited to workshops, consulting sessions, and digital resources — are non-refundable and non-cancellable once charged, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

By completing payment, you acknowledge that you are engaging in a service that begins immediately upon scheduling or access, and that these customized services are not eligible for refund.

All materials provided by My Startup Shield™, including educational content, templates, graphics, and proprietary processes, are the intellectual property of My Startup Shield™ and are protected under applicable copyright and trademark laws. These materials may not be copied, shared, or distributed without written permission.

Participation in a My Startup Shield™ session, workshop, or consultation does not create an attorney-client relationship. The information shared is designed to educate founders about intellectual property concepts and startup protection strategies, but should not be relied upon as legal advice.

For legal questions or representation, we encourage you to consult with a licensed attorney experienced in intellectual property law.

While every effort is made to provide accurate and useful information, My Startup Shield™ and its affiliates are not liable for any loss, damage, or claim arising out of your use of our services or reliance on the information provided. You assume full responsibility for your own actions, filings, and decisions based on our educational content.

These Terms & Conditions are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
