Terms of Service

1Nature of Our Services (Secondary Research Only)

LocalNichePro provides data aggregation and synthesis services based on publicly available administrative records. In the context of business planning, our Service is classified strictly as "Secondary Research."

You acknowledge and agree that:

• Our reports serve as a preliminary research tool to identify potential market trends.
• Our data does not constitute a feasibility study, business plan, or guarantee of market viability.
• You are solely responsible for conducting "Primary Research" (e.g., customer interviews, competitor site visits, local regulatory checks) before making any financial investment.

2No Professional Advice

LocalNichePro is an information provider, not a business advisor, legal counsel, or financial planner. The information provided on our website:

• Is descriptive (stating what the data shows), not prescriptive (telling you what to do).
• Should not be interpreted as a recommendation to start, invest in, or close any specific business.
• Does not take into account your personal financial situation, skills, or local market nuances that are not captured in administrative data.

3Data Accuracy & Government Affiliation

While we strive to ensure the accuracy of our synthesis engine, we rely on third-party public data (e.g., County Business Patterns, Nonemployer Statistics). We cannot guarantee that this source data is error-free, complete, or perfectly current. We accept no liability for errors or omissions in the underlying government data.

4Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, LocalNichePro shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, resulting from:

• Your reliance on any data or "Market Signal" provided by the Service.
• Financial losses incurred by a business venture launched based on our information.
• Any interpretation of "Growth," "Revenue Potential," or "Saturation" metrics.

5Intellectual Property

While the underlying Census data is public domain, the synthesis methodology, proprietary metrics (including "True LQ," "Solopreneur Ratio," and "Market Gap Score"), visual presentations, and website design are the exclusive property of LocalNichePro and are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws. You may not scrape, reproduce, or resell our aggregated reports without express written permission.

6Updates to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will notify users by updating the date at the top of this policy. Your continued use of the Service after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.
