1. Description of Service

Probed is an information aggregation and analysis platform. The Service collects, organizes, and displays publicly available information from third-party sources across the internet, including but not limited to news outlets, social media platforms, public databases, and government filings. We use automated processing systems, including artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, to classify, score, summarize, and organize this information for our users.

The Service may include features such as content feeds, signal scoring, content clustering, entity tracking, interactive maps, daily briefings, push notifications, and other tools for monitoring publicly available information.

2. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, browsing the site, subscribing to communications, or otherwise accessing any part of the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes take effect upon posting to this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required by applicable law in your jurisdiction) to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. If you are under 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction), you must have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

4. User Accounts

Certain features of the Service require you to register for an account. When creating an account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep this information updated. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

We reserve the right to suspend, disable, or delete your account at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including but not limited to a violation of these Terms.

5. Third-Party Content

The Service aggregates and displays content from third-party sources. We do not create, author, verify, endorse, or take responsibility for any third-party content displayed through the Service. All third-party content is the property of its respective owners and is displayed pursuant to applicable law, including fair use principles, and the terms of the platforms from which it is sourced.

We provide links to original sources whenever possible. The inclusion of any third-party content on the Service does not imply affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement of the content, its authors, or its original publishers.

Third-party websites, services, and content linked to from the Service are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of any third-party website or service.

6. Automated and AI-Generated Content

Portions of the Service — including but not limited to content classifications, relevance scores, signal ratings, summaries, trend analyses, briefings, and organizational labels — are generated by automated systems using artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. This content is produced algorithmically and does not represent the editorial opinions, judgments, or endorsements of Probed or its operators.

AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, biases, omissions, or outdated information. Scores, ratings, and classifications assigned by our automated systems are computational outputs based on algorithmic models and should not be interpreted as definitive assessments of truth, importance, credibility, or reliability.

The Service does not constitute professional, journalistic, scientific, legal, investigative, intelligence, or any other form of professional advice. You should independently verify any information obtained through the Service before relying on it for any purpose.

7. No Endorsement of Claims

The Service aggregates content that may contain unverified claims, allegations, theories, speculation, eyewitness accounts, personal opinions, and contested assertions. The display of such content on the Service does not constitute endorsement, validation, confirmation, or promotion of any claim, theory, or allegation contained therein.

We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, veracity, completeness, or reliability of any claims made in content displayed through the Service. Users are solely responsible for evaluating the credibility and reliability of any information they encounter on the Service.
