These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website located at weaveseq.com (the “Site”), the AffiniBind computational protein engineering platform, and any related services (collectively, the “Services”) provided by WeaveSeq Engineering (“WeaveSeq,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Site or Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and “you” refers to that organization. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access the Site or use the Services.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes become effective upon posting to the Site. Your continued use of the Services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.
WeaveSeq provides computational protein engineering services focused on the design, optimization, and characterization of custom protein binders. Our platform, AffiniBind, uses sequence-driven and structure-based computational methods to identify and rank candidate binding proteins for targets specified by our clients.
The Services include, but are not limited to:
WeaveSeq does not perform wet-lab experiments as part of the standard Services, though we may facilitate connections to experimental validation partners upon mutual agreement.
In using the Services, you agree that:
Access to certain features of the Services, including the Engineering Workspace at /dashboard, requires you to create an account. You may authenticate using email and password, or through Microsoft Entra ID OAuth.
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a security risk to our platform or other users.
The AffiniBind platform, including its computational pipeline, scoring models, surface fingerprinting methodology, evaluation algorithms, and all associated software, documentation, and know-how (collectively, the “WeaveSeq Technology”), is the exclusive intellectual property of WeaveSeq Engineering. The Site content, including text, graphics, logos, images, videos, and the WeaveSeq and AffiniBind trademarks, is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
Nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in the WeaveSeq Technology, except for the limited right to use the Services as described herein. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, or otherwise exploit any part of the WeaveSeq Technology without our express written consent.
You retain all ownership rights in the target protein structures, sequence data, project specifications, and other materials you provide to us (“Customer Data”). You grant WeaveSeq a limited, non-exclusive license to use Customer Data solely for the purpose of providing the Services to you.
The computational results, predictions, and reports generated by the Services based on your Customer Data (“Results”) are provided to you for your internal research and development purposes. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, you own the Results we deliver to you. You are responsible for validating Results through experimental testing and for determining their suitability for any particular purpose.
WeaveSeq retains the right to use aggregated, anonymized, and de-identified data derived from the operation of the Services for the purpose of improving the AffiniBind platform and developing new computational methods. Such aggregated data will not identify you or your organization and will not include your Customer Data in identifiable form.
WeaveSeq’s Services are engagement-based. The scope of work, deliverables, timeline, and fees for each project are documented in a separate Statement of Work, Project Proposal, or engagement agreement executed between you and WeaveSeq (each, an “Engagement Agreement”). These Terms govern your use of the Site and Services generally; the Engagement Agreement governs the specific project scope and commercial terms.
Fees specified in the Engagement Agreement are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for all taxes, duties, and governmental assessments associated with your use of the Services, except for taxes based on WeaveSeq’s net income.
Unless otherwise stated in the Engagement Agreement, fees are non-refundable. WeaveSeq reserves the right to modify pricing for future engagements upon reasonable notice.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WEAVESEQ ENGINEERING, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WEAVESEQ HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
WEAVESEQ’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO WEAVESEQ DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100.00).
THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WEAVESEQ MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT (A) THE SITE OR SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR BE AVAILABLE ON AN UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE BASIS; (B) THE COMPUTATIONAL PREDICTIONS, RESULTS, OR EVALUATIONS GENERATED BY THE AFFINIBIND PLATFORM WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR RELIABLE; OR (C) ANY DEFECTS OR ERRORS IN THE SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED.
COMPUTATIONAL PROTEIN DESIGN PREDICTIONS ARE INHERENTLY PROBABILISTIC. AFFINIBIND’S PREDICTIONS — INCLUDING BINDING AFFINITY ESTIMATES, SPECIFICITY PREDICTIONS, AND DEVELOPABILITY ASSESSMENTS — ARE COMPUTATIONAL ESTIMATES BASED ON DEEP-LEARNING MODELS AND PHYSICOCHEMICAL REPRESENTATIONS. THESE PREDICTIONS DO NOT CONSTITUTE GUARANTEES OF EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS. ALL COMPUTATIONAL RESULTS MUST BE VALIDATED THROUGH APPROPRIATE EXPERIMENTAL TESTING BEFORE ANY RELIANCE IS PLACED ON THEM FOR RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, DIAGNOSTIC, THERAPEUTIC, OR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES.
THE SITE MAY CONTAIN LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES OR RESOURCES. WEAVESEQ IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONTENT, ACCURACY, OR PRACTICES OF ANY THIRD-PARTY SITES AND DOES NOT ENDORSE THEM.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless WeaveSeq Engineering, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site or Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any applicable law or regulation; (d) your Customer Data, including any claim that your Customer Data infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights; or (e) your use of the Results generated by the Services.
During the course of your engagement with WeaveSeq, each party may disclose confidential information to the other. “Confidential Information” means non-public information that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Your Customer Data is your Confidential Information. The WeaveSeq Technology is WeaveSeq’s Confidential Information.
Each party agrees to use Confidential Information of the other party only for the purpose of performing its obligations under these Terms and any applicable Engagement Agreement, and to protect such Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information of like nature, but in no event less than reasonable care. This obligation survives termination of these Terms for a period of three (3) years, or indefinitely for trade secrets.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, unless both parties agree in writing to an alternative forum. The arbitration shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights or Confidential Information.
These Terms remain in effect until terminated by either party. You may terminate these Terms at any time by ceasing all use of the Site and Services and closing your account. WeaveSeq may terminate or suspend your access to the Services at any time, with or without cause, upon reasonable notice to the email address associated with your account.
Upon termination, your right to access and use the Services will immediately cease. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including Sections 5 (Intellectual Property), 7 (Limitation of Liability), 8 (Disclaimer of Warranties), 9 (Indemnification), 10 (Confidentiality), 11 (Governing Law), and 14 (Contact).
We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and, for changes that materially affect your rights or obligations, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you (e.g., via email to the address associated with your account or via a notice posted on the Site). Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms.
