Terms, Privacy, and Intellectual Property Notices

These Terms and Conditions, the Privacy Policy, the Cookie Notice, and all intellectual property notices on this page form a single binding agreement between you and the Companies. Your continued use of the site, submission of any form, participation in any study, or receipt of any material from us constitutes acceptance. If you use the site on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization.

"Content" means all text, study snippets, protocols, instruments, data, software, applications, designs, marks, and other materials made available by the Companies. "Submission" means anything you send us through the site. "IP" means all patents, patent applications, copyrights, trademarks, trade dress, trade secrets, know-how, and other intellectual property rights worldwide.

You may view the site for lawful, personal, or internal business evaluation purposes only. You may not, without our prior express written consent: copy, reproduce, republish, mirror, frame, scrape, data-mine, index for machine learning or model training, reverse engineer, decompile, benchmark, or create derivative works from any Content; circumvent access controls or rate limits; use automated agents against our forms or endpoints; or use the site to transmit malware, spam, or unlawful material.

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, for any reason.

Access to this site and to any account, database, application programming interface, administrative interface, or non-public area operated by the Companies is permitted only to the extent expressly authorized in these terms or by a signed agreement.

You may not, and may not attempt to: access any account, system, or data you are not authorized to access; use, obtain, share, or test credentials belonging to another person; circumvent, disable, or interfere with authentication, authorization, rate limiting, or any other security or access control; probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any system; intercept, monitor, or alter communications or data in transit; introduce malicious code; impersonate any person or misrepresent an affiliation in order to obtain access; or retain, copy, export, or disclose data obtained through any of the foregoing.

Scope and expiry of authorization. Authorization, where granted, is limited to the specific account, resource, purpose, and period stated. It does not extend to any other system. It terminates immediately on revocation, on the end of any role or relationship through which it was granted, or on breach of these terms. Continued access after authorization ends is unauthorized access.

Remedies reserved. The Companies reserve every civil and criminal remedy available for unauthorized access or computer misuse, including under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. § 1030), the Stored Communications Act (18 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq.), the Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1836 et seq.), the Georgia Computer Systems Protection Act (O.C.G.A. § 16-9-90 et seq.), the Tennessee Personal and Commercial Computer Act of 2003 (Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-14-601 et seq.), and any other applicable federal or state law — together with injunctive and emergency relief, actual and statutory damages, restitution, and recovery of investigation, forensic, and enforcement expenses where available.

Logging and evidence. Access to this site and to accounts on it is logged. Logs may include timestamps, network address, device and browser characteristics, session identifiers, requested resources, and authentication events. The Companies retain these records, may preserve them under legal hold, and may use, disclose, and produce them in any investigation, regulatory inquiry, or legal proceeding, and to law enforcement where permitted or required.

Security research. The Companies welcome good-faith vulnerability reports through the contact form. Except as expressly authorized in writing in advance, no person is permitted to conduct security testing against these systems. Good-faith reporting that does not access, alter, exfiltrate, or destroy data, and that is disclosed promptly to the Companies and not to others, will not be pursued.

Some areas of this site require an account. You must provide accurate registration information, keep it current, and you are responsible for all activity occurring under your credentials.

You may not share credentials, permit another person to use your account, hold more than one account without our permission, register on behalf of another person without authority, or create accounts by automated means. You must notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized use of your account.

The Companies may suspend, restrict, or terminate any account at any time, with or without notice, including where activity indicates unauthorized access, misuse, or risk to the Companies' data or systems. Termination does not limit any other remedy, and the obligations in Sections 4, 8, 20, and 25 survive it.

All Content is owned by or licensed to the Companies and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, and trade secret law. All rights reserved. Nothing on this site transfers ownership of any IP to you. The marks "Innovation Co.," "Sensory Bridges," "MMMmc," associated logos, wordmarks, and wave device are trademarks or common-law marks of the Companies and may not be used without express written permission.

No license to any IP is granted except by a signed, express written agreement executed by an authorized officer of the applicable Company. No license arises by implication, estoppel, course of dealing, negotiation, access to materials, receipt of a demonstration, participation in a study, or the absence of objection.

Any license that is granted is: revocable at any time, at the Companies' sole discretion, with or without cause and with or without notice; non-exclusive unless expressly stated otherwise; non-transferable and non-sublicensable; limited to the specific field, territory, term, and use stated in the writing; and conditioned on full compliance with these terms and the license agreement. Upon revocation or expiration you must immediately cease all use and, on request, certify destruction or return of all licensed materials. Fees paid are not refundable upon revocation for cause.

Study protocols, instruments, raw and derived data, scoring methods, source code, pipelines, commercial models, client lists, and unpublished findings are asserted as trade secrets under the Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1836 et seq.) and applicable Georgia and Tennessee trade secret statutes. Published snippets are deliberately partial and disclose no trade secret.

Submissions to this site are not confidential. Do not send confidential, proprietary, or unsolicited idea material through the contact form. Sending it creates no confidentiality obligation, no fiduciary relationship, no non-use obligation, and no compensation right. Confidentiality applies only under a signed NDA.

Certain methods, devices, systems, and applications described or demonstrated by the Companies are the subject of issued patents or pending patent applications in the United States and elsewhere. Publication on this site is not a dedication to the public and does not constitute a grant of any patent license or covenant not to sue. This notice serves as constructive notice under 35 U.S.C. § 287 where applicable.

© 2026 MMMmc LLC and Sensory Bridges LLC. All rights reserved. If you believe material on this site infringes your copyright, send a notice through the contact form containing: identification of the copyrighted work; identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location; your contact information; a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and you are authorized to act; and your physical or electronic signature. We will respond to properly formed notices and may remove material and terminate repeat infringers.

Reporting. Suspected infringement or misappropriation of the Companies' IP — including unauthorized copying of study instruments, application code, designs, marks, or licensed deliverables — should be reported through the contact form, selecting "Something else" and describing the matter. Reports are reviewed and, where warranted, escalated to counsel.

Remedies we may pursue. The Companies reserve every remedy available at law and in equity, including: immediate revocation of any license; injunctive and emergency relief (you agree that IP misuse causes irreparable harm for which money damages are inadequate, and you waive any bond requirement to the extent permitted); actual damages, the infringer's profits, and unjust enrichment; statutory damages and attorneys' fees where available, including for registered copyrights; exemplary damages and attorneys' fees for willful trade secret misappropriation; seizure, takedown, and domain or platform enforcement actions; accounting, disgorgement, and constructive trust over proceeds; and recovery of investigation and enforcement expenses.

Cure and cooperation. A party that receives an infringement notice must, within ten (10) calendar days, cease the conduct, preserve all relevant records and systems (a litigation hold), provide a written accounting of use and distribution, and cooperate with reasonable audit. Failure to do so is treated as willful.

No waiver. Delay or failure to enforce any right is not a waiver of that right or of any other right.

Study descriptions on this site are summaries only and are not offers to enroll, medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or clinical guidance. Participation requires a separate written consent and participation agreement, and may be limited by eligibility criteria, geography, or capacity. Interim or preliminary findings may change, may not replicate, and must not be relied upon for any clinical, financial, or operational decision. Nothing on this site is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security.

Product privacy. This policy covers this website. Data from the Brooks Band device, its companion app, and the professional dashboard is covered separately by the Brooks Band Product Privacy Notice.

What we collect. Information you submit voluntarily (name, email, organization, inquiry type, study of interest, message content, consent status) and limited technical metadata associated with a submission (submission timestamp, page of origin, and anti-spam signals).

Information collected automatically. When you visit the site we record limited technical information for security and basic usage measurement: the page path, the referring page, your browser's user-agent string, a randomly generated session identifier stored in your browser for the duration of the visit, and a one-way cryptographic hash of your network address. We do not store your network address in readable form, and the hash cannot be reversed to identify you. This measurement runs only if you accept analytics in the cookie banner. If you decline or ignore the banner, nothing is recorded.

Legal bases. Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we process personal information on these bases: performance of a contract or steps taken at your request; our legitimate interests in responding to inquiries, securing the site, and measuring basic usage; your consent, where given, for analytics and for marketing communications; and compliance with legal obligations.

Why we collect it. To respond to your inquiry, evaluate study eligibility, schedule meetings, administer licensing and consulting relationships, protect the site from abuse, and meet legal obligations. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use your submission to train machine learning models.

Who can see it. Megan Cales and authorized personnel of the Companies, plus service providers acting on our instructions (hosting, database, email delivery, scheduling, and spam protection). Submissions are stored in an access-controlled database and are not publicly readable.

Children. The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. Study participation involving minors occurs only through a separate guardian consent process.

Inquiry records are retained for as long as needed for the relationship and for a reasonable period afterward for legal, tax, and dispute-preservation purposes, then deleted or de-identified. Study data is governed by the applicable participation agreement and is stored separately from marketing inquiries.

Subject to verification and applicable law, you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your inquiry data, or withdraw consent to further contact, by submitting a request through the contact form. We honor rights afforded by applicable state privacy laws and, where they apply, the GDPR/UK GDPR. We apply reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no system is perfectly secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security of transmitted data.

Retention periods. Inquiry records are retained for the duration of the relationship and for a reasonable period afterward for legal, tax, and dispute-preservation purposes, then deleted or de-identified. Analytics page-view records are retained for no longer than twenty-four (24) months. Account records and non-disclosure acknowledgments are retained for the life of the account and for six (6) years afterward. Records subject to a legal hold are retained until the hold is released.

Appeals. If we deny a privacy request, you may appeal by submitting a further request through the contact form marked "privacy appeal". We will respond in writing with the basis for our decision within the period required by applicable law, and will tell you how to contact the relevant regulator if you remain dissatisfied.

The Companies apply administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data held, including access-controlled storage, least-privilege access, encrypted transmission, authentication controls, and access logging. No system is perfectly secure, and no guarantee of absolute security is given or implied.

If the Companies determine that a security incident has compromised personal information, we will notify affected individuals and any regulator, controller, or counterparty as and when required by applicable law and contract, without unreasonable delay. The notice will describe, to the extent known, the nature of the incident, the categories of information involved, the steps we have taken, and the steps you may wish to take.

This site uses strictly necessary storage required to serve pages, maintain security, and protect forms from automated abuse. These cannot be switched off.

With your consent, the site also records basic page-view analytics as described in the Privacy Policy. Analytics is off unless you accept it in the cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time using the banner controls.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or cross-site trackers, and we do not share this information with advertisers or data brokers.

If scheduling embeds, captcha, or third-party analytics are added in future, those providers may set their own cookies under their own policies, and this notice will be updated before they are enabled. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; parts of the site may then not function.

The site may link to or embed third-party services, including scheduling, captcha, hosting, source control, cloud, and social platforms. Those services are controlled by others. The Companies are not responsible or liable for any third-party content, availability, security practice, data handling, act, or omission, and inclusion of a link or integration is not endorsement. Your use of a third-party service is governed solely by that provider's terms and privacy policy, and any dispute is between you and that provider.

Service providers. The Companies use service providers to operate the site and hold data, acting on our instructions and under contract. Current categories are: application hosting and content delivery; managed database and authentication; domain registration and DNS; and, where enabled, email delivery, scheduling, and bot protection. Providers may change, and we will keep this description current.

International transfers. The Companies are located in the United States and information is processed there. If you access the site from outside the United States, you understand that your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, which may not provide the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, including the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED OPERATION. No advice or information obtained from us creates any warranty not expressly stated here.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, LOST GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.

THE COMPANIES' TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE, THE CONTENT, ANY LICENSE, ANY STUDY, OR ANY SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES OR PURCHASE PAYMENTS YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO THE COMPANIES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. IF YOU HAVE PAID NOTHING, THE COMPANIES' TOTAL LIABILITY IS ZERO. This cap applies regardless of the theory of liability and survives any failure of an exclusive remedy. Some jurisdictions limit these exclusions; in those places, liability is limited to the smallest amount permitted by law.

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Companies and their members, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the site, your Submissions, your breach of these terms, your violation of law, or your infringement or misappropriation of any IP.

The same indemnity applies to any account you hold on this site: you indemnify the Companies for all activity under your account credentials, for anything you submit, upload, or acknowledge through the account, and for any onward disclosure of confidential or trade-secret material accessed through it. You will promptly notify us of unauthorized account use. We control the defense and settlement of any indemnified claim; you will cooperate at your expense. This obligation survives termination of your account.

Send indemnity notices, infringement reports, and legal questions to legal@sensorybridges.com, or by mail to Sensory Bridges LLC, 100 Cherokee Blvd, Suite 213, Chattanooga, TN 37405.

Mediation is a mandatory condition precedent to filing suit. Before initiating any action, the parties must (a) exchange a written notice of dispute describing the claim and the relief sought, (b) confer in good faith for thirty (30) days, and (c) if unresolved, participate in non-binding mediation before a single mutually agreed mediator, or one appointed by a recognized mediation provider. Mediation occurs in Georgia (or by video conference where the mediator permits), and the parties split the mediator's fees equally while each bears its own expenses. Mediation communications are confidential and inadmissible.

Any claim must be filed within one (1) year after it accrues or it is permanently barred. This section does not prevent either party from seeking immediate injunctive or emergency relief in court to protect intellectual property, trade secrets, or confidential information.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that matters exclusively concerning Sensory Bridges LLC's Tennessee operations are governed by Tennessee law. Subject to the mediation requirement above, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts serving the applicable Company's principal place of business.

Unless we state otherwise in writing before the meeting begins, all meetings, calls, demonstrations, consultations, and video sessions with either Company are recorded, together with transcripts, summaries, chat logs, and any notes or action items generated from them. By joining a meeting you consent to that recording. If you do not consent, tell us before the session starts and we will either proceed without recording or reschedule.

All such recordings and derived materials are the sole property of the applicable Company and constitute its confidential business records and, where applicable, copyrighted works and trade secrets. We use them for accuracy, follow-up, internal training, product and research development, and legal recordkeeping. You are granted no ownership, license, or right to copy, publish, transmit, transcribe, or distribute any recording, and you may not record, stream, or capture a session yourself without our prior express written consent.

Recordings are retained under the schedule published on our records-retention page. Nothing in this section grants you rights in any intellectual property disclosed during a meeting, and no license arises from any oral discussion; see Sections 6 and 7. This section survives termination.

You consent to receive communications from the Companies electronically, including by email and by notices posted on this site, and you agree that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

Where you type your name, check a box, or click a button indicating agreement, that action is your electronic signature and has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under the federal E-SIGN Act and applicable state law. You may withdraw consent to electronic delivery by contacting us, but doing so may end your ability to use accounts or services that require it.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these terms or any right under them without our prior written consent. The Companies may assign these terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.

Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural events, utility or network failure, cyberattack, labor disturbance, epidemic, or governmental action. This does not excuse any payment obligation.

No third-party beneficiaries. These terms create no rights in any person who is not a party, except that the Companies' members, officers, employees, contractors, and agents may enforce the disclaimer, limitation of liability, and indemnification provisions.

Survival. Provisions that by their nature should survive — including intellectual property, licenses, trade secrets and confidentiality, unauthorized access, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, governing law, and these general provisions — survive termination of your access or account.

Relationship. Nothing in these terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, agency, or fiduciary relationship.

Waiver. No waiver is effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized officer. A waiver on one occasion is not a waiver on any other.

We may update these terms at any time; the version posted when you use the site governs that use. If any provision is held unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder stays in force. These terms, plus any signed agreement between us, are the entire agreement and supersede prior discussions. Section headings are for convenience only.

Questions, privacy requests, infringement reports, and license inquiries: use the secure contact form or email legal@sensorybridges.com. Megan Cales can be reached through the contact form on this site.

Mailing address for notices and service of process:

The Companies design toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA where feasible. Accessibility feedback and accommodation requests receive prompt review without retaliation. See our accessibility statement for detail and for how to reach us.

The Companies maintain internal governance frameworks covering intellectual property administration, licensing, privacy, security, research conduct, and workplace policy. These are internal operating documents. They are not published, are not contracts, do not transfer intellectual property, do not grant any license, do not create confidentiality obligations, and do not bind any person or organization.

Where a counterparty has a legitimate need to review a framework — for example in diligence, a licensing negotiation, or a research collaboration — it may be made available on request under a signed non-disclosure agreement, at the Companies' discretion.

Order of precedence. If an internal framework conflicts with these terms or with a signed agreement, the signed agreement controls first, then these terms, then the framework.
