1. General Provisions

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Customer," "User," or "you") and SolCity Nav, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("SciReg," "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), governing your access to and use of the SciReg website and all related services.

By creating an Account, submitting Registration(s), uploading Submitted Materials, purchasing Registration(s), or otherwise using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.

The Company reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Revised Terms become effective immediately upon publication on the SciReg website. Your continued use of the Service after publication of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of those revisions.

Service means the SciReg website and all services provided by SolCity Nav, LLC.

Registration means the submission of information and Submitted Materials through the Service for creation of a Registration Record.

Registration Record means the electronic record created and maintained by SciReg containing information supplied by the Customer together with the assigned registration number and registration date.

3. Description of the Service

SciReg is an independent online registration and publication service that enables Customers to create dated electronic Registration Records for intellectual works and other Submitted Materials.

For each accepted Registration, SciReg may:

  • assign a unique registration number;
  • record the date and time of Registration;
  • maintain a Registration Record;
  • securely store Submitted Materials;
  • generate and issue a Registration Certificate;
  • publish Registration information where publication is selected or otherwise authorized by the Customer.

SciReg operates as a private commercial service and is not affiliated with any governmental authority.


4. Nature of the Service

SciReg is an independent private registration service.

SciReg is not:

  • a government copyright office;
  • a patent office;
  • a trademark office;
  • a governmental registration authority;
  • a court of law;
  • a notary public;

A Registration Certificate confirms only that SciReg received specified information and Submitted Materials, created a Registration Record, assigned a registration number, and recorded the corresponding date and time of Registration.

A Registration Certificate is not a governmental registration, is not evidence of ownership or authorship, does not establish the existence or validity of copyright or any other intellectual property rights, and does not constitute a legal opinion, certification, adjudication, or governmental act.
