Terms of Service
Effective date: March 1, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your use of Fundizzle (the "Service"), operated by Fundizzle, Inc. ("we", "us", "our"), a Delaware corporation. By creating an account or using Fundizzle, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. What Fundizzle is
Fundizzle is an AI-powered grant discovery and matching platform for researchers and academics. We help you find grants that fit your work, understand your chances, and generate application materials.
We are a tool, not a grant writing service. The content we generate is a starting point — you are responsible for reviewing, editing, and submitting any application materials. Grant agencies have their own requirements and review their own rubrics; Fundizzle does not guarantee funding outcomes.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and capable of entering a binding agreement to use Fundizzle. If you are using Fundizzle on behalf of an institution or organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these terms.
3. Your account
- You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure. Do not share your password.
- You must provide accurate information when creating your account.
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
- Notify us immediately at [email protected] if you believe your account has been compromised.
4. Acceptable use
You agree to use Fundizzle for lawful purposes only. You must not:
- Submit false or misleading information about yourself or your research
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or extract data from the platform in bulk
- Use Fundizzle to generate fraudulent grant applications or misrepresent your qualifications
- Interfere with or disrupt the service or servers
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to other users' accounts or data
- Violate any applicable law or regulation
5. Intellectual property
Your content
You own the content you upload to Fundizzle (CVs, documents, profile information). By uploading content, you grant us a limited license to use it solely to provide the Service to you. We do not claim ownership of your content.
AI-generated content
Content generated by Fundizzle AI (draft sections, recommendations) is provided to you for your use. You are responsible for reviewing and editing it before use. You take ownership of any AI-assisted content you submit as part of a grant application.
Our platform
The Fundizzle platform, including the software, design, matching algorithms, and grant database, is owned by Fundizzle, Inc. and protected by intellectual property law. You receive a limited, non-exclusive license to use the Service.
6. Disclaimers
Fundizzle is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or perfectly accurate.
Grant information in our database is sourced from public records and third-party sources. We do our best to keep it current, but grant details change — always verify deadlines, eligibility, and requirements directly with the funding agency before submitting an application.
AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or omissions. You are responsible for reviewing all AI-generated content before use.
We do not guarantee that using Fundizzle will result in successful grant funding.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Fundizzle, Inc. and its officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits or lost grant funding, arising from your use of the Service.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these terms or your use of the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or $100, whichever is greater.
8. Termination
You can delete your account at any time from your account settings. We will delete your personal data within 30 days.
We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or if we need to do so to protect other users or the platform. We will give you notice where reasonably possible.
Sections 5, 6, 7, and 9 survive termination.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.
10. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of Fundizzle after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
