General Disclaimer
Scope of Disclaimer
This Disclaimer applies to all services, content, tools, technologies, software, and professional services (collectively, the “Services”) provided by ARC-Search (“Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Disclaimer.
No Guarantee of Results
We make no representations or warranties about the effectiveness of our Services in achieving any particular outcome or result. While we apply our best professional judgment and methodologies to optimize your content for AI interpretability, we cannot and do not guarantee that any AI system will retrieve, interpret, or present your content in any specific manner.
AI Systems and Third-Party Platforms
No Control Over AI Systems
ARC-Search has no ownership, control, or influence over any third-party AI systems, language models, or platforms. We do not have special relationships with or privileged access to AI systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other large language models or AI platforms.
Changes to AI Systems
AI systems, algorithms, and language models are continuously evolving and changing. We have no control over, knowledge of, or responsibility for changes made to any third-party AI systems that may affect how they process, interpret, retrieve, or display your content.
No Affiliation With AI Providers
ARC-Search is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected with any AI system providers or their parent companies, subsidiaries, or affiliates.
Service-Specific Disclaimers
AIO Readiness Audit
Our AIO Readiness Audits represent our professional assessment based on current understanding of AI systems. These assessments are subjective and reflect our best professional judgment at a specific point in time. They should not be considered definitive or permanent evaluations of your content’s retrievability or interpretability.
Metrics and Measurements
Any metrics, scores, or measurements we provide (including but not limited to Trust Integrity Score, Retrieval Surface Area, Token Yield per Query, and Embedding Salience Index) are proprietary estimations and not official metrics recognized or used by any AI system provider. These metrics cannot predict specific outcomes in any AI system.
Content Optimization
Our content optimization services aim to improve how AI systems understand and retrieve your content but cannot guarantee specific placement, citation, or representation in any AI-generated responses.
Professional Advice Disclaimer
Not Legal Advice
Nothing provided by ARC-Search constitutes legal advice. We do not provide guidance on legal compliance with regulations governing advertising, data privacy, intellectual property, or any other legal matters. Consult qualified legal counsel for legal advice.
Not Medical Advice
Our Services do not constitute medical advice and should not be relied upon for medical purposes or patient care. If you operate in the healthcare sector, all content must be reviewed by qualified medical professionals before publication.
Not Financial Advice
We do not provide financial, investment, tax, or accounting advice. Clients in financial services must ensure all content complies with applicable regulations and standards.
Content and Information Disclaimer
Client-Provided Information
We rely on information provided by you to deliver our Services. We do not independently verify the accuracy, completeness, or currency of any information you provide to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy and legality of all content and information you provide.
No Content Endorsement
Our optimization of your content does not constitute an endorsement of the accuracy, legality, or quality of that content. We do not assume responsibility for the substance of your content.
Third-Party Content
We may reference or link to third-party content during the provision of our Services. We do not endorse, verify, or take responsibility for any third-party content or services.
Technical Disclaimers
Technology Limitations
AI technologies have inherent limitations and may produce unpredictable results. We cannot guarantee that AI systems will always interpret your content correctly, regardless of optimization.
No Guarantee of Uninterrupted Service
We do not guarantee that our Services or any deliverables will be error-free, uninterrupted, or completely secure.
Compatibility
We do not warrant that our methodologies or deliverables will be compatible with all AI systems, particularly those developed after our Services are provided.
Liability Limitations
Waiver of Consequential Damages
In no event shall ARC-Search be liable for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive damages, including lost profit, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Maximum Liability
Our maximum liability arising out of or related to our Services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to us in the six (6) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Force Majeure
We shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, pandemic, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes, shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials, or internet or network failures.
Indemnification
Client Indemnification Obligations
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ARC-Search and its officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to your violation of this Disclaimer or your use of the Services, including, but not limited to, any use of the Services’ content, information, or deliverables other than as expressly authorized.

Our Services do not transfer to you any ownership rights to our methodologies, processes, techniques, ideas, concepts, trade secrets, or know-how. We grant you a limited license to use our deliverables in accordance with our Terms of Service.
No Guarantee of Non-Infringement
While we make reasonable efforts to ensure our Services do not infringe on third-party intellectual property rights, we cannot guarantee that any particular content strategy or optimization approach will not be claimed to infringe upon third-party rights.
Privacy and Data
Data Processing Limitations
We make no representations regarding the compliance of our Services with specific data protection or privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, or HIPAA. You are responsible for ensuring your use of our Services complies with applicable privacy laws.
No Guarantee of Data Security
While we implement reasonable security measures, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of any data you provide to us. You acknowledge this limitation and accept the inherent risks of transmitting and storing data.
Future Changes
Industry Evolution
The field of AI is rapidly evolving. Strategies and methodologies that are effective today may become obsolete or less effective as AI systems evolve. We do not guarantee that our Services will remain effective indefinitely.
Service Updates
We may update our Services, methodologies, and approaches as the industry evolves. We are not obligated to update previously delivered Services or deliverables to conform to these changes.
No Perpetual Support
Unless explicitly stated in a separate agreement, we do not provide perpetual monitoring, maintenance, or updates to our deliverables.
