Terms of use

1. Who we are

startupfunds.in ("we", "us") is a free, informational directory of startup grants and funding programmes for founders in India. These terms govern your use of this website.

2. The service we provide

We collect and summarise publicly available information about funding programmes and present it for you to browse free of charge. We are an information directory, not a funder, agent or broker. We do not provide funding, do not submit applications on your behalf, and do not guarantee that you will be eligible for or receive any programme listed here.

3. No professional advice

Nothing on this site is legal, financial, tax or investment advice. Listings are summaries that may change or contain errors. Always verify details on the official programme page and seek qualified advice before acting. See our disclaimer for the full position.

4. Accounts

Some features require a free account. You agree to provide accurate details, to keep your login secure, and to be responsible for activity under your account. You must be at least 18 to create one. We may suspend or terminate accounts that breach these terms or misuse the site.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Scrape, copy or republish our content at scale, or pass it off as your own.
• Disrupt, overload or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site or its systems.
• Use the site for anything unlawful, misleading or harmful to others.

6. Intellectual property

The site's design, original written descriptions and compilation are our intellectual property. The underlying facts about public funding programmes are not owned by us. You may link to our pages and quote short extracts with attribution, but you may not reproduce substantial portions of our written content without permission.

7. Third-party links

We link to official programme pages and may include referral or affiliate links. We're not responsible for the content, accuracy or practices of any third-party site, and your use of them is governed by their own terms.

8. Limitation of liability

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its content — including missed deadlines, rejected applications, or decisions made based on a listing. Your sole remedy if you're unhappy with the site is to stop using it.

9. Changes

We may update the site and these terms at any time. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms. We'll revise the "last updated" date when we do.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of Gurugram (Gurgaon), Haryana have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute relating to them or to your use of the site.
