The Agent Brief Effective 4 min read

Acceptance of these terms

These terms govern your use of siluway.com and its content. By accessing or using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

Informational purpose only

The Agent Brief publishes research and commentary about AI agents and related business software. Everything on the site is provided for general information. It is not a product, a service commitment, or a substitute for your own due diligence.

We write about vendors and products, but we do not sell, implement, or support them. Any decision to purchase or deploy a tool is yours, and it should be based on your own requirements, testing, and professional advice where appropriate.

No professional advice

Nothing on this site is financial, legal, tax, accounting, medical, or other professional advice. Articles about costs, contracts, security, or compliance describe general patterns; they do not account for your jurisdiction, industry, or circumstances. Consult a qualified professional before acting on anything you read here.

Intellectual property

The text, design, graphics, and code on this site are owned by The Agent Brief or used under license, and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. The name “The Agent Brief” and the site's visual identity are part of that material.

You may quote a short excerpt with clear attribution and a link to the original page. You may not republish substantial portions of an article, copy the site's design, or present our content as your own without written permission.

Permitted use

You may read the site for personal or internal business purposes, share links to it, print a reasonable number of pages for internal use, and quote brief passages with attribution. These uses are permitted as long as they do not misrepresent the source or imply an endorsement we have not given.

Prohibited use

You may not:

  • scrape, crawl, or harvest the site at scale, or use automated tools that place an unreasonable load on it;
  • republish, resell, or redistribute substantial portions of the content without permission;
  • frame the site, mirror it, or remove attribution or proprietary notices;
  • interfere with the site's operation, attempt to bypass access controls, or introduce malicious code;
  • use the site for unlawful purposes, or in a way that infringes the rights of another person; or
  • misrepresent an affiliation with The Agent Brief or use our name to imply endorsement.

We may restrict or block access for conduct that violates these terms.

The site links to vendor websites, research reports, government pages, and other third-party resources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. A link is a reference, not an endorsement, and it does not mean the third party endorses us.

Advertising

Display advertising on this site is served by third parties, including Google AdSense. Advertisements are not editorial content, and we do not endorse the products or services advertised. Any transaction you enter into with an advertiser is between you and that advertiser.

No warranties

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any information is current or complete.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Agent Brief and the people who operate it will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, arising out of or related to your use of the site, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the same extent, our total liability for any claim relating to the site will not exceed the greater of one hundred U.S. dollars or the amount you paid us to use the site in the twelve months before the claim. Because the site is free to read, that amount will usually be zero.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Agent Brief and the people who operate it from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable expenses arising out of your violation of these terms or your misuse of the site.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws applicable in the operator's jurisdiction, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the courts that have jurisdiction over the operator, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the site changes. The effective date at the top of this page will change when we do. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.

Severability

If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will stay in effect.
