1. Acceptance and scope
By accessing or using this Site, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the Site. These Terms govern website use only. A quotation, order confirmation, service agreement, confidentiality agreement, or other signed document may contain additional or different terms for a transaction; the signed transaction document controls in the event of a conflict.
2. Intended users and permitted purpose
The Site is intended for qualified researchers, laboratories, biotechnology and pharmaceutical organizations, distributors, and procurement professionals seeking research-use products or services. You must use the Site lawfully and in accordance with institutional policies and applicable biosafety, export-control, sanctions, intellectual-property, and research regulations.
3. Website and catalog information
We seek to keep product, target, sequence, specification, pricing, availability, and lead-time information accurate. Website content may nevertheless be incomplete, updated, corrected, or withdrawn without notice. A database record, development candidate, or “available for inquiry” designation does not by itself establish inventory, validated performance, regulatory status, or an obligation to supply.
Technical decisions should be based on the current product label, specification sheet, certificate, written technical confirmation, and your own qualified evaluation—not on a website summary alone.
4. Quotations and orders
An inquiry, sample request, displayed price, or request-to-quote workflow is not an offer or acceptance. Product identity, configuration, quantity, price, taxes, shipping, lead time, documentation, and applicable restrictions are confirmed in writing. No order is binding until accepted by the contracting entity identified in the applicable quotation or order confirmation.
5. Research use only
Unless expressly stated otherwise in a signed document and applicable product labeling, products and services presented on the Site are for research use only and are not for use in diagnostic procedures, human or veterinary treatment, food, household use, or direct administration to humans or animals. The separate Research Use Only Notice forms part of these Terms.
6. Public data, sequences, and intellectual-property boundaries
Public availability of a paper, patent, sequence, target, or database record does not establish freedom to operate, non-infringement, validity, regulatory authorization, or technical suitability. Users are responsible for obtaining appropriate intellectual-property and legal advice for their jurisdiction, use, and project.
7. Information and materials you submit
You represent that you are authorized to provide information or materials submitted through the Site and that doing so does not violate law, confidentiality obligations, or third-party rights. General inquiry forms are not approved channels for confidential sequences, patient information, or sensitive personal data. Submission of an inquiry does not by itself create a confidential relationship.
8. Prohibited conduct
- Attempting to gain unauthorized access, interfere with security controls, introduce malicious code, or overload the Site.
- Using automated means to extract substantial portions of the Site or databases without written permission.
- Misrepresenting identity, affiliation, regulatory status, product performance, or authorization.
- Using Site content or products for unlawful, unsafe, clinical, diagnostic, or prohibited purposes.
9. Intellectual property
The Site design, branding, original text, graphics, software, compilations, and proprietary product materials are owned by StellaCyte or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Limited viewing and internal evaluation for legitimate business or research procurement is permitted. No other license is granted by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.
10. Third-party materials and links
The Site may reference external publications, databases, identifiers, suppliers, or websites. Such references are provided for context and do not imply endorsement, control, completeness, or continuing availability. Third-party terms and privacy practices apply to external services.
11. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted availability. Product warranties, if any, are only those expressly stated in the applicable written transaction documents.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, StellaCyte is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or lost-profit damages arising from use of or reliance on the Site. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
12. Changes, applicable law, and contact
These Terms are effective as of October 8, 2026. We may update them prospectively by posting a revised version. Transaction-specific governing law and dispute provisions are stated in the applicable quotation, order confirmation, or agreement; mandatory law remains unaffected.
