Terms of Service

Last updated: April 27, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Cortiv ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you are using the Service on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organisation. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

2. Definitions

  • "Service" means the Cortiv platform, including its websites, dashboards, APIs, AI features, and related services.
  • "Customer Data" means any data you authorise the Service to access, store, or process — including Meta advertising data, Shopify data, and any content you upload or create.
  • "Aggregate Data" means data derived from Customer Data that has been irreversibly de-identified and aggregated such that no individual customer, account, or end user can be identified.
  • "AI Output" means any recommendation, evaluation, report, or generated content produced by the Service's AI features.

3. Description of Service

Cortiv connects to your Meta Ads accounts and (optionally) Shopify stores, retrieves your data, displays it in a dashboard, and uses AI to evaluate performance and recommend optimisations. The Service is intended for media buyers, agencies, and ecommerce brands. Some Service features may execute changes to your advertising accounts, but only on your authorisation.

4. Account Registration and User Responsibilities

  • You must provide accurate and complete information when registering and keep it current.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account.
  • You must have the legal right to access and authorise the Service to act on any advertising accounts or stores you connect.
  • You agree to use the Service in compliance with all applicable laws and the platform terms of any third-party services you connect (Meta, Shopify, etc.).
  • You will not attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, copy, scrape, or misuse the Service or its underlying systems.
  • You will not use the Service to transmit malicious code, infringe on intellectual property, or for any unlawful purpose.

5. Customer Data and Ownership

You own your Customer Data. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of your Customer Data to us.

You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide licence to access, store, copy, transmit, modify, and process Customer Data solely as necessary to provide the Service to you. This licence includes processing through subprocessors (cloud infrastructure, AI providers) as described in our Privacy Policy.

Aggregate Data: Subject to your opt-in for Network Insights features (as described in the Privacy Policy), you grant us the right to compute, store, and use Aggregate Data — data irreversibly de-identified and combined across customers — to improve the Service for all customers, develop benchmarks, train and tune our AI features, and produce industry insights. Aggregate Data does not include any data that identifies your workspace, accounts, campaigns, or customers.

We will not sell your Customer Data or Aggregate Data to third parties.

6. AI Outputs and Limitations

The Service uses AI (including third-party large language models) to generate recommendations, evaluations, and reports. AI Outputs are advisory only. They are based on the data available at the time of generation and may contain errors, omissions, or assumptions that do not reflect your actual situation.

  • You are responsible for reviewing AI Outputs before acting on them.
  • For features that execute changes on your advertising accounts (e.g. pausing ads, adjusting budgets), you authorise the action — either explicitly per-recommendation or by configuring auto-execution settings within the Service.
  • We do not guarantee any specific performance outcome (e.g. ROAS, CPA, conversion lift) from following AI Outputs.
  • You retain final accountability for all advertising decisions made on accounts you control, including those involving Service-generated recommendations.

7. Meta Platform Compliance

This Service uses the Meta Ads API. By using this Service, you agree to comply with Meta's Platform Terms at developers.facebook.com/termsand applicable advertising policies. We reserve the right to suspend access if your use violates Meta's policies, if Meta restricts our access, or if continued access would create a risk for our other users.

8. Acceptable Use

You will not, and will not permit any other person to:

  • Use the Service in violation of applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights.
  • Use the Service to advertise, promote, or sell goods or services that violate Meta's advertising policies (e.g. fraudulent products, unsafe supplements, misleading claims).
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other users' data, or our infrastructure.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service's operation, including by abusing rate limits, automating account creation, or sending excessive automated requests.
  • Resell, sublicense, or white-label the Service without a separate written agreement.

9. Fees and Subscription

Some features of the Service may be offered free of charge; others are subject to subscription fees described at the time you sign up or upgrade. Fees are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually) and are non-refundable except as required by law. We may change our pricing on at least 30 days' notice; if you do not agree to the new pricing, you may cancel before the change takes effect. Failure to pay may result in suspension or termination of your account.

10. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, software, content, and trademarks, is owned by Cortiv or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the Service for its intended purpose during your subscription. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right or licence to our trademarks, logos, or branding without our prior written consent. You retain ownership of your Customer Data as described in Section 5.

11. Third-Party Services

The Service integrates with third-party services (including Meta and Shopify) through their published APIs. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or behaviour of those third-party services. Your use of any third-party service is governed by that service's own terms. If a third-party service changes its API, terms, or pricing in ways that affect Service functionality, we will adapt where reasonably practicable but cannot guarantee continuous parity.

12. Confidentiality

Each party agrees to protect the other's confidential information with at least the same care it uses for its own confidential information, and not to disclose such information except as necessary to perform under these Terms or as required by law. Customer Data is treated as your confidential information.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will always be accurate. Advertising data accuracy depends on third-party APIs we do not control.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CORTIV SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION — ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (a) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (b) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS (USD $100).

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cortiv and its officers, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from (a) your violation of these Terms, (b) your violation of any third-party rights or laws (including Meta's policies and applicable advertising laws), or (c) the content of any advertising you operate using the Service.

16. Termination

You may cancel your account at any time through the Service or by contacting us. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any breach of these Terms or if continued access creates risk to the Service or other users. Upon termination, your right to access the Service ends and your Customer Data will be deleted as described in our Privacy Policy. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Customer Data ownership, IP, disclaimers, liability limits, and indemnification) will survive.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or in-Service notice and update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you may cancel your account before they take effect.

18. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

19. Miscellaneous

These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy) constitute the entire agreement between you and Cortiv regarding the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
