Terms and Conditions For Pathverse StudyFlow

Effective Date: Sept 22, 2026

These StudyFlow Terms of Service (the “Terms”) constitute a legal agreement between Pathverse Inc. (“Pathverse,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and the individual, institution, organization, research team, or other entity using the StudyFlow service (“Customer”).

StudyFlow is a study participant management and research workflow platform provided by Pathverse.

By creating a StudyFlow account, accessing StudyFlow, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms.

If you access or use StudyFlow on behalf of a university, hospital, research institute, company, research team, or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to accept these Terms on behalf of that organization and the applicable research study. In that case, “Customer” refers to that organization.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use StudyFlow.

If Pathverse and Customer have entered into a separate written agreement governing StudyFlow, including an institutional agreement, SaaS agreement, order form, data processing agreement, or similar agreement, the terms of that agreement will prevail to the extent of any conflict with these Terms.

1. Definitions

“Authorized User” means an individual whom Customer authorizes to access or administer StudyFlow on its behalf, including a principal investigator, researcher, research coordinator, graduate student, research assistant, staff member, or other authorized member of a research team.

“Customer Content” means study materials, questions, surveys, screening criteria, eligibility rules, consent materials, communications, study configurations, notes, documents, and other materials entered, uploaded, configured, or provided by Customer or its Authorized Users.

“Customer Data” means information collected, entered, uploaded, transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed through Customer’s use of StudyFlow, including Participant Data, survey responses, screening information, study status information, and Customer Content.

“Participant” means an individual who accesses StudyFlow in connection with a Study established by a Customer, including an individual screened for potential participation.

“Participant Data” means information relating to a Participant that is collected or processed through StudyFlow.

“Services” means the StudyFlow platform and associated services provided by Pathverse.

“Study” means a research study, project, program, evaluation, or other activity created or administered by Customer using StudyFlow.

2. StudyFlow Services

StudyFlow is a software platform designed to assist Customers with managing research participants and study workflows.

As StudyFlow develops, StudyFlow may provide functionality including participant tracking, study stages and workflows, online screening, surveys and questionnaires, participant groups or study arms, participant status tracking, researcher notes, custom fields, participant communications, email notifications, eligibility rules, and related research-management functionality.

The features available within StudyFlow may change as StudyFlow develops.

Unless Pathverse expressly agrees otherwise in writing, StudyFlow is provided as a technology platform and not as a clinical, medical, research, regulatory, or professional service.

3. Service Development

Customer acknowledges that StudyFlow is currently a product under active development and testing.

Software may contain errors, bugs, incomplete functionality, interruptions, design changes, or other limitations that may not be present in a commercially mature service. As StudyFlow develops, Pathverse may modify, add, remove, replace, or discontinue features; change workflows, interfaces, limits, or technical requirements; perform maintenance and updates; temporarily suspend functionality for testing, maintenance, security, or development; introduce new versions of StudyFlow; and request feedback concerning Customer’s experience with the Services. Customer is responsible for evaluating whether StudyFlow is appropriate for its Study.

Before enrolling Participants or relying upon a StudyFlow configuration, Customer should independently review and test its Study setup, including screening criteria, surveys, eligibility rules, participant groups, study stages, email notifications, and other workflows relevant to the Study.

Customer should maintain appropriate independent records and export copies of research data as necessary for its research, institutional, regulatory, ethical, and legal requirements.

StudyFlow should not be used as Customer’s sole permanent archive for research data.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, no service-level agreement or guaranteed uptime applies to StudyFlow.

4. Accounts and Authorized Users

Customer is responsible for identifying and managing its Authorized Users. Customer must ensure that Authorized Users comply with these Terms and is responsible for activities performed through its accounts.

Authorized Users register using their name, email address, and password. Registration does not require a separate username or organization field. Authorized Users must provide accurate account information and maintain the confidentiality of their passwords and other authentication credentials. Accounts may not be shared between individuals unless expressly permitted by Pathverse.

Customer must promptly notify Pathverse if it becomes aware of unauthorized account access or another suspected security incident involving StudyFlow.

Pathverse may suspend or restrict an account where reasonably necessary to protect the Services, Customer Data, Participants, other customers, or Pathverse.

5. Participant Access

Customers may invite or permit Participants to access portions of StudyFlow through time-limited links and tokens for purposes such as screening, providing contact information, completing surveys, receiving study information, or participating in other Customer-configured activities. Participants do not create username-and-password accounts. Participants must protect their access links and tokens and must not share them with unauthorized persons.

StudyFlow may process Participant contact information, including name, email address and, where requested, telephone number, as provided by the Participant or research team. Additional Participant Data collected through StudyFlow is determined primarily by Customer’s configuration of its Study.

Customer acknowledges that Pathverse does not recruit Participants, independently verify Participant identity, determine whether an individual should participate in a Study, or establish the research relationship between Customer and Participant.

6. Customer Responsibility for Research

Pathverse provides technology infrastructure. Pathverse is not the sponsor, investigator, research institution, research ethics board, healthcare provider, or regulatory authority responsible for Customer’s Study merely because StudyFlow is used in connection with that Study. Customer is solely responsible for the design, conduct, administration, and oversight of its Study. This includes, as applicable, responsibility for obtaining necessary research ethics board (“REB”), institutional review board (“IRB”), institutional, regulatory, and other approvals; obtaining legally and ethically appropriate informed consent or assent; determining recruitment procedures and eligibility requirements; ensuring screening and eligibility criteria are appropriate; managing participant safety; complying with the approved research protocol; determining what information may appropriately be collected; providing appropriate privacy and research notices; responding to Participant questions, complaints, withdrawals, and requests; determining data-retention requirements; complying with applicable privacy, research, health-information, electronic communications, consumer-protection, and other laws; and ensuring Authorized Users use StudyFlow appropriately.

Pathverse’s provision of StudyFlow does not constitute approval or endorsement of any Study, research protocol, screening criterion, consent form, survey, communication, intervention, or other Customer activity.

7. Research Ethics Approval

Where a Study involving human participants requires approval from an REB, IRB, or equivalent body, Customer represents and warrants that it will obtain all required approvals before conducting applicable research activities through StudyFlow.

Pathverse may request evidence of applicable ethics or institutional approval. Pathverse’s decision to request, review, or not request documentation does not transfer responsibility for research ethics compliance from Customer to Pathverse.

Where REB or IRB approval is not required or does not apply, Customer remains responsible for determining the appropriate legal, ethical, and institutional basis for its collection and use of Participant Data.

8. Screening and Eligibility

StudyFlow may allow Customers to establish screening questions, eligibility criteria, decision rules, and classifications such as eligible, ineligible, or needs review.

All criteria and rules are established or configured by Customer. StudyFlow processes Customer-defined rules as a software function. Pathverse does not independently determine whether a Participant is medically, clinically, scientifically, ethically, or otherwise suitable or eligible for a Study. Customer must review and appropriately test its screening and eligibility configuration before relying upon it with Participants.

Customer is responsible for determining whether human review of screening results is required.

Software errors, configuration errors, incomplete Participant information, or other factors may affect screening results. Customer must not rely upon StudyFlow as a substitute for investigator or professional judgment where such judgment is required.

9. Study Groups and Assignment

StudyFlow may permit Customers to create study groups, cohorts, or study arms and manually assign Participants to them. Unless expressly identified otherwise within the Services, StudyFlow does not perform validated clinical-trial randomization. Customer is responsible for its allocation or randomization methodology and for verifying that Participants have been assigned appropriately in accordance with its Study protocol.

10. Customer Content and Custom Fields

StudyFlow allows Customers to create surveys, questions, notes, screening criteria, custom fields, and other Customer Content. Because Customers control these fields, StudyFlow may be used to collect information beyond standard Participant contact information, including sensitive personal information, health information, demographic information, research information, and other categories of data.

Customer is responsible for determining whether collecting such information is necessary, appropriate, lawful, and consistent with its ethics approval, consent materials, privacy notices, and institutional requirements.

Customer represents and warrants that it has all rights, permissions, approvals, and lawful authority necessary to collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process Customer Data through StudyFlow.

11. Ownership of Customer Data

As between Pathverse and Customer, Customer retains all right, title, and interest in and to Customer Data, subject to any rights of Participants or third parties under applicable law.

Pathverse does not acquire ownership of Customer Data by providing StudyFlow. Customer grants Pathverse a limited, non-exclusive right to host, copy, transmit, process, display, back up, and otherwise use Customer Data solely to the extent reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, secure, support, and improve the Services, comply with Customer’s instructions, or comply with applicable law.

This licence terminates when the applicable Customer Data is deleted from Pathverse’s systems, subject to normal backup cycles and legal retention requirements. Pathverse will not sell identifiable Participant Data.

12. Participant Data

Participant Data may include name, email address, telephone number, Participant identifiers, screening responses, eligibility status, consent status, study-arm information, appointment information, survey responses, research staff notes, compensation status, withdrawal status, health information, and other information determined by Customer.

The precise information collected for each Study is determined by Customer. Customer is responsible for informing Participants about the Study, information being collected, purposes for which it will be used, who will have access to it, and any disclosures required by applicable law, institutional requirements, or research ethics approval. Pathverse does not obtain an independent ownership interest in Participant responses or research data.

13. Pathverse Access to Customer Data

Pathverse does not routinely access Customer’s identifiable research data for its own purposes.

Access to Customer Data by Pathverse personnel will be limited to authorized personnel and circumstances reasonably necessary to provide technical support; diagnose or troubleshoot technical issues; maintain, secure, or protect the Services; prevent or investigate misuse or security incidents; perform backup, restoration, or other technical operations; or comply with applicable law or valid legal process. Where reasonably practicable, Pathverse will limit access to the information reasonably necessary for the applicable purpose.

14. Aggregated and De-identified Information

Pathverse may generate and use aggregated, statistical, or de-identified information concerning use and performance of StudyFlow for legitimate business purposes, including operating, securing, analyzing, improving, and developing StudyFlow and understanding platform usage.

Such information must not reasonably identify an individual Participant or disclose a Customer’s identifiable individual research responses. For example, Pathverse may analyze aggregate information concerning numbers of studies, Participants, surveys, workflows, or platform activities.

Pathverse will not sell identifiable Participant Data.

15. Data Hosting

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Customer Data for the standard StudyFlow service is hosted in Canada. Alternative or customized data-hosting regions may be available through separate arrangements with Pathverse. Customer is responsible for determining whether the applicable hosting arrangement satisfies its legal, institutional, contractual, funding, ethics, and research requirements.

16. Security

Pathverse will use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect Customer Data against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. Security controls are being developed as StudyFlow develops. Multi-factor authentication for researchers and audit logging are not currently implemented. Customer must not assume that a particular security control is available unless Pathverse has confirmed it. Customer acknowledges that no internet-based service or electronic storage system can guarantee absolute security. Customer is responsible for evaluating whether the current safeguards meet its Study requirements and for appropriate security practices within its organization, including controlling Authorized User access, protecting passwords and Participant access links and tokens, removing access when no longer required, and appropriately exporting and maintaining research data. Additional security commitments may be established through a separate institutional agreement or data processing agreement.

17. Participant Communications

StudyFlow may allow Customer to send or configure email notifications or other communications relating to Study activities. Customer is responsible for the content, timing, recipients, and legal basis for such communications. Customer must ensure communications comply with applicable law and with its ethics approval, consent procedures, Study protocol, and institutional requirements.

Pathverse acts as the technology provider facilitating Customer-configured communications and does not independently determine when or why Participants should be contacted.

18. Privacy

Pathverse’s collection and processing of personal information in connection with StudyFlow is also subject to the applicable Pathverse Privacy Policy. Customer remains responsible for its own privacy notices, informed-consent documents, information-management practices, and compliance obligations relating to Customer Data. Where required or mutually agreed, Pathverse and Customer may enter into a separate Data Processing Agreement or other privacy or security agreement.

19. Data Export, Retention and Deletion

Customer is responsible for regularly exporting and maintaining copies of Customer Data required for its research, legal, regulatory, institutional, ethics, or archival purposes. Customer should not rely on StudyFlow as its sole permanent repository for research data.

StudyFlow does not currently implement a fixed twelve-month post-termination retention period. Retention and deletion arrangements depend on the applicable service or institutional agreement, Customer instructions, applicable legal requirements, and the technical capabilities available as StudyFlow develops. Customer should contact Pathverse at admin@pathverse.ca to arrange data retrieval or request deletion and to confirm the applicable timing, including treatment of any backup copies. Termination does not itself guarantee immediate deletion or continued availability for a specified period. Customer should export required research data before terminating its account.

20. Free Access and Future Paid Services

StudyFlow is currently offered without charge unless otherwise agreed between Pathverse and Customer. Pathverse may introduce free and paid StudyFlow plans in the future.

Pathverse may establish limits on free accounts, including limits relating to Participants, Studies, storage, functionality, support, or other usage. Introduction of paid plans does not authorize Pathverse to automatically charge Customer.

Customer will not be charged for a paid StudyFlow subscription unless Customer affirmatively agrees to the applicable purchase, subscription, order form, or other payment arrangement.

Pathverse may modify or discontinue the free service program upon reasonable notice where practicable.

21. Acceptable Use

Customer, Authorized Users, and Participants must use StudyFlow only for lawful purposes.

Users must not access data or accounts without authorization; circumvent authentication or security controls; interfere with the Services; introduce malicious code; unlawfully reverse engineer StudyFlow; violate privacy, intellectual-property, research, or health-information laws; collect information without appropriate authority; sell Participant Data obtained through StudyFlow; unlawfully monitor, harass, exploit, or harm another person; misrepresent affiliation with Pathverse; or use StudyFlow in a manner creating unreasonable security, legal, technical, or operational risk.

Pathverse may suspend access where it reasonably believes use of StudyFlow violates these Terms or creates material risk.

22. Intellectual Property

StudyFlow, including its software, interfaces, design, documentation, technology, trademarks, and underlying systems, is owned by Pathverse or its licensors. Subject to these Terms, Pathverse grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to access and use StudyFlow during the applicable account period for Customer’s internal research and related activities.

Customer retains ownership of its Customer Content and intellectual property. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of Customer Data to Pathverse or ownership of StudyFlow to Customer.

23. Feedback

Pathverse may invite Customers to provide feedback concerning StudyFlow. If Customer or an Authorized User voluntarily provides suggestions, ideas, feature requests, usability feedback, or other feedback concerning StudyFlow, Pathverse may use that feedback without compensation or obligation to Customer to develop, modify, and improve StudyFlow and other Pathverse products.

Feedback does not include Customer Data, Participant Data, identifiable research responses, or confidential research information merely because such information is communicated during a support interaction.

24. Third-Party Services

StudyFlow may integrate with or rely upon third-party services and infrastructure. Third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy practices. Unless expressly agreed otherwise, Pathverse is not responsible for changes, outages, acts, or omissions of third-party providers outside Pathverse’s reasonable control.

25. Service Availability and Changes

Pathverse will use commercially reasonable efforts to operate StudyFlow. However, Pathverse does not guarantee that StudyFlow will be continuously available, uninterrupted, error-free, or suitable for every Study. No uptime commitment or service-level agreement applies unless expressly agreed in writing. As StudyFlow develops, Pathverse may make frequent changes to StudyFlow, including changes affecting interfaces, workflows, functionality, and feature availability.Where reasonably practicable, Pathverse will attempt to provide notice of changes or interruptions likely to materially affect active Studies.

26. Technical Support

Pathverse may provide reasonable technical support for StudyFlow but does not guarantee particular response or resolution times unless separately agreed.Customer is responsible for providing Study-specific support to Participants, including questions concerning recruitment, consent, eligibility, survey content, appointments, compensation, withdrawal, and Study procedures.

27. No Medical, Clinical, Research, or Professional Advice

StudyFlow is a software tool. Pathverse does not provide medical, clinical, legal, research ethics, statistical, regulatory, or other professional advice through StudyFlow. StudyFlow does not replace the judgment of qualified researchers, healthcare professionals, research ethics boards, institutions, or other professionals. Customer must independently determine whether StudyFlow and its configuration are appropriate for its intended use.

28. No Emergency Use

StudyFlow is not designed as an emergency communication, emergency monitoring, medical alert, or real-time patient-safety system unless Pathverse expressly agrees otherwise in writing. Customers must not configure StudyFlow in a manner requiring Pathverse to identify or respond to medical emergencies, imminent harm, or other time-critical events. Customer is responsible for establishing appropriate procedures for responding to safety issues arising in its Study.

29. Service Disclaimer

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, studyflow is provided “as is,” “as available,” and “with all faults.” Customer acknowledges that studyflow is pre-release software under active

development. Pathverse disclaims warranties and conditions not expressly provided in these terms, including implied warranties or conditions of, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, and uninterrupted availability.

Pathverse does not warrant that studyflow will be error-free, that data will never be lost, that all defects will be corrected, or that studyflow will satisfy customer’s particular research, regulatory, ethics, or institutional requirements. customer is responsible for reviewing, testing, and validating its study configuration and for maintaining appropriate copies of research data.

30. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pathverse and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, business opportunity, research opportunity, anticipated savings, or data arising from or relating to Studyflow.

Pathverse will not be responsible for claims or losses arising from customer’s study design, research activities, recruitment, consent process, eligibility criteria, participant assignment, customer content, customer-configured workflows, communications, failure to obtain required approvals, or customer’s use of customer data.

For services provided without charge, Pathverse’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to studyflow will not exceed CAD $100, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

31. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Customer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Pathverse and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from or relating to Customer’s Study or research activities; Customer Content; Customer’s recruitment or treatment of Participants; Customer’s screening or eligibility criteria; failure to obtain required consent, ethics approval, institutional approval, or authorization; unlawful or unauthorized collection, use, disclosure, or processing of personal information; Customer’s violation of applicable law; Customer’s infringement of third-party rights; Customer’s material breach of these Terms; or misuse of StudyFlow by Customer or its Authorized Users.

This section does not require Customer to indemnify Pathverse to the extent a claim results directly from Pathverse’s own breach of these Terms or conduct for which indemnification cannot lawfully be required.

32. Suspension and Discontinuation of Service

Pathverse may suspend access where reasonably necessary because of a security risk, unlawful use, material breach, technical issue, risk of harm, or legal requirement.

Pathverse may also discontinue the service or materially change its scope.

Where reasonably practicable, Pathverse will provide advance notice of discontinuation so Customers have an opportunity to export Customer Data. Nothing in this section requires Pathverse to continue providing StudyFlow indefinitely.

33. Termination

Customer may stop using StudyFlow and terminate its account. Pathverse may terminate free access upon reasonable notice, except where immediate termination is reasonably necessary because of security concerns, unlawful activity, material breach, technical risk, or risk of harm. Customer remains responsible for exporting research data it wishes or is required to retain. Sections that by their nature should survive termination, including provisions relating to ownership, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law, survive termination.

34. Institutional Agreements

Pathverse may enter into separate agreements with universities, hospitals, research institutions, government agencies, companies, or other organizations. Such agreements may address privacy, data processing, security, service levels, hosting, data residency, retention, support, procurement requirements, liability, and other institutional requirements. If a valid written agreement between Pathverse and Customer governs the same subject matter as these Terms, that agreement will prevail to the extent of any inconsistency.

35. Confidentiality

Where Pathverse receives non-public information from Customer that is identified as confidential or that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential, Pathverse will use such information only as reasonably necessary to provide the Services or as otherwise authorized by Customer. Confidential Information does not include information that is publicly available through no breach of obligation, lawfully known without restriction before disclosure, independently developed without use of the confidential information, or lawfully obtained from another source without confidentiality restrictions.

Pathverse may disclose confidential information where required by applicable law or valid legal process.

36. Changes to These Terms

Pathverse may update these Terms as StudyFlow develops. Where changes materially affect Customer’s rights or obligations, Pathverse will provide reasonable notice through StudyFlow, email, its website, or another appropriate method. Continued use of StudyFlow after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by applicable law.

37. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and the Services are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to any different dispute-resolution arrangement contained in a separate written agreement, the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia.

38. General Provisions

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Failure by Pathverse to enforce a provision does not waive that provision or any other right. Customer may not assign these Terms without Pathverse’s prior written consent except as otherwise agreed. Pathverse may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, corporate reorganization, financing, sale of substantially all relevant assets, or other corporate transaction, subject to applicable law. These Terms, the applicable Privacy Policy, and any separately executed agreement between Pathverse and Customer constitute the agreement governing Customer’s use of StudyFlow. A separately executed agreement controls to the extent of any conflict.
