USLEGE, INC. TERMS OF SERVICE & PRIVACY POLICY

By accessing and using this service from USLege, Inc., you agree to comply with these Terms & Conditions. We welcome your feedback to support@uslege.ai if you have suggestions or questions.

Thanks for choosing USLege, Inc. (“USLege”, “we”, “us”, “our”). By using the USLege service, websites, and software applications (together, the “USLege Service” or “Service”), or accessing any content or material that is made available by USLege through the Service (the “Content”) you are entering into a binding contract with USLege, Inc.

Your agreement with us includes these Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy. (The Terms, Privacy Policy, and any additional terms that you agree to, as discussed in the Entire Agreement section, are referred to together as the “Agreements”.) If you wish to review the terms of the Agreements, the effective version of the Agreements can be found on USLege, Inc’s website.

You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Agreements, accept these Agreements, and agree to be bound by them. If you don’t agree with (or cannot comply with) the Agreements, then you may not use the USLege, Inc. Service.

USLege, Inc. may provide free trials of the Services at its discretion to potential new customers. The trial begins upon activation of your account and lasts for a specified time period to be provided at the time of trial activation. We reserve the right to alter the trial period at our discretion. During the trial period, you may have access to all or specific portions of the software services. To activate the trial period, you will be required to submit payment information to us.

You will not be charged throughout the trial period, and you agree to allow us to charge your payment method at the conclusion of the trial period for the applicable subscription rate unless you cancel prior to the end of the trial period. To avoid charges, cancel your subscription before the end of the trial period by sending a cancellation email to support@uslege.ai. All other terms and conditions listed in this agreement apply during the trial period.

By using the service, you also acknowledge your compliance with all applicable State and Federal law with respect to lobbyist activity, including but not limited to Chapter 305 of the Texas Government Code and Chapter 34 of the Texas Ethics Commission Rules. You also acknowledge that USLege AI is considered a “common vendor” as a software licensor under the definition of that term provided by the Texas Ethics Commission, and USLege is not a coordinating entity for any political campaign/electoral activity for which you use these Services. USLege makes no independent investigation into any user’s compliance or noncompliance with such laws and regulations.

The Agreements are not intended to grant rights to anyone except you and USLege, and in no event shall the Agreements create any third-party beneficiary rights.

Please read the Agreements carefully. They cover important information about the Services provided to you and any charges, taxes, and fees we bill you. The Agreements include information about future changes to the Agreements, limitations of liability, confidentiality information, and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead of in court.

Effective date: June 23, 2026

The following terms apply specifically to The Political Spotlight, a free newsletter published by USLege, and to readers who subscribe to or read it. If you are a free newsletter subscriber, these Newsletter Terms govern your use of the newsletter. The platform, data-license, data-fee, confidentiality, and anti-scraping provisions above apply to USLege’s data-platform and paid users — not to free newsletter subscribers in their capacity as readers.

N.1 Independence

USLege is an independent company. We are not a government agency and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any government, legislature, court, or public body. We report on government proceedings; we are not part of government.

USLege maintains a proprietary database of government meeting recordings from across the United States, including local, state, federal, and regulatory proceedings. USLege creates its own transcripts and summaries of these proceedings using proprietary artificial intelligence. Content is generated by AI and may receive limited human review.

Where source video is available to us, we host it and link to it. For certain jurisdictions — including the U.S. Senate and a number of states whose video is owned by third parties — we do not host the video; we provide a transcript and summary and link to the official public source so you can verify it.

N.3 Accuracy; verify against the source

Because our transcripts and summaries are AI-generated, they may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies. Each item is, where available, linked to the source footage or the official public record. You should not rely on our summaries as a substitute for the primary source, and should verify any item that matters to you against the linked source.

N.4 Not legal, financial, or professional advice

The newsletter is provided for general informational purposes only. Nothing in it is legal, financial, political, or other professional advice. Do not act or refrain from acting based on the newsletter without consulting a qualified professional and checking the primary source.

N.5 No warranty

The newsletter is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, timeliness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

N.6 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, USLege and its officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss arising from your use of, inability to use, or reliance on the newsletter, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. For the free newsletter, our total liability for any claim relating to it will not exceed USD $100.

USLege owns or licenses all content it creates for the newsletter, including its transcripts, summaries, compilations, and any video clips it hosts, as well as the USLege and The Political Spotlight names and logos. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to read the newsletter for your own non-commercial use. You may not copy, scrape, redistribute, resell, republish, or create derivative works from the newsletter content without our prior written permission. (Government proceedings and public records referenced in the newsletter remain the products of the relevant government bodies.)

N.8 Corrections

We take accuracy seriously. If you believe something is wrong, please tell us — email corrections@uslege.ai. We review every request against the primary source and correct confirmed errors promptly, with a dated note.

N.9 Subscriptions and communications

By subscribing you consent to receive emails from us. We use double opt-in confirmation, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. Your information is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

N.10 Governing law

These Newsletter Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas, Texas.

N.11 Changes

We may update these Newsletter Terms from time to time; material changes will be reflected by a new effective date. Continued reading after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

You may not use the site for illegal or abusive purposes, send spam, distribute viruses, impersonate others, or misuse data. Violations may result in account termination.

We do not guarantee the accuracy of data. You agree to indemnify us for any actions taken based on our data.

CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT AND DATA DELETION

We may modify or terminate the Service at any time without notice or liability.
