1. General Disclaimer

The information provided on the VentureDeck platform ("Platform") is for general informational purposes only. VentureDeck, Inc. ("VentureDeck," "we," "our," or "us") makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information, products, services, or related graphics contained on the Platform for any purpose.

Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. In no event will we be liable for any loss or damage arising from the use of this Platform.

2. No Investment Advice

VentureDeck is not a registered broker-dealer, investment advisor, or funding portal. Nothing on this Platform should be construed as:

• An offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities
• Investment advice or recommendations
• Tax, legal, or financial advice
• A guarantee of investment returns or outcomes

Always consult with qualified legal, tax, and financial professionals before making any investment decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

3. Investment Risks

Investing in startups and early-stage companies involves significant risks, including but not limited to:

3.1 Loss of Investment

The majority of startups fail. There is a significant risk that you may lose your entire investment. Only invest money that you can afford to lose completely.

3.2 Illiquidity

Investments in private companies are typically illiquid. There is no public market for shares, and you may be unable to sell your investment for an extended period, if ever.

3.3 Dilution

Your ownership stake may be diluted by future financing rounds, stock option grants, or other equity issuances.

3.4 Lack of Information

Unlike publicly traded companies, private companies are not required to disclose financial information. You may have limited access to information about the company's operations and financial condition.

3.5 No Voting Rights

Depending on the investment structure, you may have limited or no voting rights or ability to influence company decisions.

3.6 Fraud Risk

While VentureDeck takes steps to verify users and projects, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of information provided by third parties or eliminate the risk of fraudulent offerings.

4. Accredited Investor Requirements

Many investment opportunities on our Platform are available only to "accredited investors" as defined by relevant securities laws. In the United States, an accredited investor generally includes:

• Individuals with income exceeding $200,000 (or $300,000 jointly with a spouse) in each of the prior two years, with a reasonable expectation of the same in the current year
• Individuals with a net worth exceeding $1 million, excluding the primary residence
• Certain entities with assets exceeding $5 million
• Individuals holding certain professional certifications (e.g., Series 7, 65, 82)

If you invest as an accredited investor, you certify that you meet these requirements. Investing as an accredited investor when you do not qualify may violate securities laws.
