User responsibility
Customers are responsible for: the accuracy of Matter Data entered; credentials hygiene and access management; ensuring Users are trained; reviewing and approving all AI-suggested outputs before they are relied upon; and complying with all applicable professional rules (including SRA rules, panel obligations, and insurer policy terms).

To the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) the Platform is provided “as available” subject to service-level commitments in the order form; (b) Peak Asset Investments Ltd is not liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages; (c) aggregate liability is capped at the fees paid by the Customer in the twelve months preceding the claim. Nothing in this clause limits liability for death, personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Intellectual property
All Platform software, models, methodology (including the Matter Readiness Framework™), and derived analytics are and remain the property of Peak Asset Investments Ltd.
