The Service uses Google account authentication. By connecting your Google account, you authorize Referna to access:

  1. Google Profile Information — your name, email address, and profile picture, used for account identity and communications.

You can revoke these permissions at any time through your Google account settings. Revoking access will limit or disable certain Service features.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activity performed through your authenticated session. Notify us promptly at support@referna.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

6. Pre-Filled Applications

6.1 Prefill Sources

A pre-filled Referral Circle application may be generated from:

  1. Materials you provided directly (LinkedIn profile, website, one-pager, case studies, testimonials, ICP description).
  2. Data entered by an authorized Referna operator on your behalf.
  3. AI-generated drafts based on the materials above.

6.2 Field Statuses

In pre-filled mode, fields are tagged as:

  • needs_input — insufficient data; you must provide a value.
  • needs_review — a draft exists requiring your confirmation or correction.
  • confirmed — acceptable as entered, subject to your final review.

6.3 Your Review Obligation

Even where fields are marked confirmed, you remain fully responsible for reviewing your complete application before final submission. Submission constitutes your representation that the information is accurate, not misleading, and that you are authorized to provide it.

6.4 Submission Gating

The product may prevent final submission while unresolved required items remain open.

7. AI-Assisted Drafting

The Service may provide AI-generated suggestions for selected application fields. You acknowledge that:

  1. AI output may be incomplete, incorrect, or unsuitable for your specific context.
  2. AI output is provided for drafting convenience only and does not constitute professional advice.
  3. You must review and edit AI output before relying on or submitting it.

8. Application Data and Submission Responsibility

You are responsible for all content submitted through the Service, including content initially drafted by AI or pre-filled by an authorized operator. When you submit an application, you represent that to the best of your knowledge:

  1. The information is accurate and not misleading.
  2. You have authority to share the information provided.
  3. Any third-party personal data included (e.g., referral contacts, colleagues) is provided lawfully.

9. Third-Party Data

9.1 Meeting Attendee Data

Information about meeting attendees is sourced from publicly available data and may not be accurate, complete, or current. We recommend independent verification of critical information.

9.2 Referral Contact Data

If you provide details about third parties in your application (trusted peers, referral contacts, colleagues), you represent that you have a lawful basis to share that information and that doing so does not violate applicable law or any contractual obligations.

10. Communications

By using the Service, you consent to receive communications from Referna including:

  1. Email — meeting preparation summaries, application updates, and service notifications to your registered email address.
  2. WhatsApp — onboarding guidance, application status messages, and follow-ups to the mobile number you provide, where applicable.

You may opt out of non-essential communications by contacting support@referna.com or revoking consent via account settings. Opting out of essential service communications may limit your ability to use the Service.

11. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies, including advertising and analytics tags provided by third parties. These currently include the Meta (Facebook) Pixel and the LinkedIn Insight Tag.

We use these technologies to measure how our advertising performs, to understand how visitors reach and move through our site, and to show Referna ads to people who have already visited us — a practice known as retargeting or remarketing — on platforms including Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Data collected by these tags is shared with the relevant platform, which acts as an independent controller of that data under its own terms and privacy policy.

We do not use Google user data obtained through the permissions described in Section 5 for advertising, retargeting, or audience building of any kind.

These technologies are described in more detail in our Privacy Policy. You can control or stop this activity at any time through your browser's cookie settings, your Meta ad preferences, your LinkedIn advertising settings, or industry opt-out tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance and Your Online Choices (EU). Section 1.6 of our Privacy Policy describes what these tags collect in more detail.

12. Referral Matching and No Guaranteed Outcome

Submission of a Referral Circle application does not guarantee:

  1. Acceptance into a referral circle.
  2. Any minimum number of referrals or introductions.
  3. Any business outcome, revenue outcome, or match timeline.

Referna retains full discretion over application review, acceptance, and matching decisions.

13. Fees and Commercial Terms

Unless separately agreed in writing, onboarding and application submission do not by themselves create a paid engagement. If paid features, memberships, or services are offered, separate commercial terms will apply and will be presented for your explicit acceptance.

14. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  1. Submit false, deceptive, or fraudulent information.
  2. Attempt to access accounts, applications, or administrative tooling without authorization.
  3. Use the Service to violate any law, regulation, or third-party rights.
  4. Interfere with service integrity, availability, or security controls.
  5. Use automated tools to scrape or extract data from the Service without permission.
  6. Resell or redistribute the Service without written authorization.

15. Security and Administrative Controls

Access to administrative tooling — including prefill upload, testing capabilities, and impersonation features — is restricted to authorized users under environment-level controls. Unauthorized use of such tooling is prohibited.

16. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its workflows, interfaces, AI systems, and underlying software, is owned by Referna or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose. No rights are granted to copy, distribute, modify, or reverse engineer any part of the Service.

17. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. REFERNA DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ACCURACY OF THIRD-PARTY DATA.

18. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, REFERNA WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES. REFERNA'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM USE OF THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

19. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Referna and its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (1) your use of the Service; (2) your submitted content; or (3) your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

20. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access where we reasonably believe there is a violation of these Terms, a security risk, or fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful behavior. You may disconnect by revoking Google permissions and requesting account deletion per our Privacy Policy.

21. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you via email or website notice before changes take effect. Continued use after an update becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

22. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Please read this section carefully. It affects how disputes between you and Referna are resolved, and it limits your right to bring a claim in court or before a jury.

Binding arbitration. Except for the claims described below, you and Referna agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, or the relationship between us will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator and seated in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Waiver of jury trial and class actions. You and Referna each waive the right to a trial by jury and to participate in a class, collective, or representative action. Claims may be brought only in an individual capacity, and the arbitrator may not consolidate the claims of more than one person.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to protect its intellectual property or confidential information, without first proceeding to arbitration.

If you were already using the Service. This arbitration agreement is new as of August 18, 2026. If you began using the Service before that date, it applies to you only from 30 days after we notify you of it, and it does not apply to any dispute we were already aware of before that date.

Your right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to support@referna.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, or, if you were already using the Service before August 18, 2026, within 30 days of the date we notify you of this provision. Opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms or your use of the Service. If you opt out, or if this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, any dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, and each party consents to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
