Last updated: April 2025
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the LaunchMyPatent website at launchmypatent.com (“the Website”) and any services you engage us to provide (“the Services”). Please read these Terms carefully before using the Website or engaging our services.
By accessing this Website or entering into a service agreement with LaunchMyPatent, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use this Website or engage our services.
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“Client” or “you”) and LaunchMyPatent (“we,” “us,” or “our”). For individual clients, this means the person engaging the services. For organizations, this means the organization on whose behalf the services are engaged, and the individual accepting these terms represents that they have authority to bind that organization.
Use of this Website constitutes acceptance of these Terms as they apply to Website use. Engagement of paid services is governed by these Terms plus the specific service proposal and agreement provided at the time of engagement.
2. Description of Services
LaunchMyPatent provides patent commercialization services, which may include:
- Production of product videos for patented inventions
- Design and development of product websites
- Setup and management of social media accounts on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube
- Creation and management of paid advertising campaigns on those platforms
- Research, identification, and direct outreach to potential licensing partners and buyers on behalf of clients
- Monthly reporting on campaign performance
The specific services, deliverables, timeline, and fees applicable to your engagement are set out in the written proposal we provide before work begins. Those specifics, combined with these Terms, form the complete agreement for your engagement.
We reserve the right to decline any engagement at our sole discretion, including if we determine that an invention does not meet our eligibility criteria, the client’s goals are not commercially viable, or accepting the engagement would create a conflict with an existing client.
3. Payment Terms
One-time fees
The one-time setup fee (Commercial Presence: $3,500; Commercial Presence + Outreach: $5,000) is due before work begins. We do not commence production until payment has cleared. Payment is accepted by the methods specified in your proposal.
Ongoing monthly fees
Monthly management fees are billed at the beginning of each monthly cycle. Failure to pay within 7 days of the billing date may result in suspension of active campaigns and management until payment is received.
Ad spend
Platform advertising spend (paid to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube directly) is separate from our fees and is billed directly to the payment method you provide to each platform. We manage the campaigns; we do not handle or mark up the ad spend itself.
Refunds
Once production has begun, the one-time setup fee is non-refundable. If work has not yet commenced — meaning no creative work, research, or production has been initiated following payment — a full refund may be requested within 48 hours of payment. Monthly management fees are non-refundable once a billing cycle has begun.
4. Deliverables and Timeline
We target a three-week delivery window from the completion of the client intake brief to the launch of all core deliverables. This timeline assumes timely client responses to creative approvals and the provision of any required materials.
Delays caused by slow client responses, failure to provide required information, or repeated revision requests beyond the agreed scope may extend the delivery timeline. We will communicate any expected delays promptly.
Deliverables are deemed accepted if no substantive written objection is received within 5 business days of delivery. After acceptance, additional revisions outside the original scope are subject to additional fees.
Revision scope: Each deliverable includes one round of revisions based on client feedback. Revisions that substantially change the creative direction, scope, or category targeting after the initial creative approval may be treated as additional work and quoted separately.
5. Client Obligations
To enable us to deliver the services effectively, you agree to:
- Provide accurate and complete information about your patent, invention, and commercial goals in the intake brief
- Confirm that you are the legitimate holder of a granted US or Canadian patent covering the invention for which services are being provided
- Respond to creative approval requests within the timeframes specified in your proposal
- Provide any required materials — including images, existing brand assets, or prototype photographs — within agreed timeframes
- Maintain any platform accounts, payment methods, or credentials we require access to for the duration of the engagement
- Not misrepresent the nature, scope, or validity of your patent to us or to any party we contact on your behalf
We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by your failure to meet these obligations.
6. Intellectual Property
Your invention
You retain full ownership of your patent and the intellectual property covering your invention. Nothing in these Terms transfers any rights in your patent to LaunchMyPatent.
Deliverables
Upon receipt of full payment for the relevant deliverables, you own the creative work produced specifically for your engagement — including the product video, website content, and social media content created for your invention. We retain the right to reference the engagement in our own portfolio and case studies in a manner that does not disclose confidential information about your invention.
Our tools and methods
Our processes, systems, outreach methodologies, templates, and internal tools remain the property of LaunchMyPatent. Engaging our services does not transfer ownership of or license to any of these.
Website content
All content on the LaunchMyPatent website — including text, design, and case study materials — is owned by LaunchMyPatent and may not be copied, reproduced, or used without written permission.
7. No Guarantee of Commercial Outcome
Important: LaunchMyPatent does not guarantee that our services will result in a licensing deal, royalty agreement, sale of your patent, or any specific commercial outcome. We build the commercial infrastructure. What happens with that infrastructure — whether a licensing partner reaches out, whether negotiations succeed, and whether a deal closes — depends on factors outside our control.
We make no representation that a commercial presence will result in any specific number of inquiries, conversations, offers, or deals within any specific timeframe. Past campaign performance figures referenced on our website reflect results from specific past campaigns and are not a guarantee of similar results for any future client or engagement.
You acknowledge that patent commercialization is inherently uncertain and that the absence of a commercial outcome following our engagement does not constitute a breach of these Terms.
8. Confidentiality
We treat information about your patent and invention as confidential. We do not share specific details about your invention, commercial goals, or engagement with any party other than those directly involved in delivering your project (such as video production partners or copywriters working under confidentiality obligations).
The existence of the engagement — that we have worked with you on a patent commercialization campaign — may be referenced in our portfolio or case studies, without identifying your specific invention details, unless you specifically request otherwise in writing.
You agree not to disclose our pricing, internal processes, outreach methodologies, or contact lists to any third party.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- LaunchMyPatent’s total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or our services shall not exceed the total fees paid by you in the 12 months preceding the claim
- We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost licensing revenue, or lost business opportunities
- We are not liable for the actions of third-party platforms (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube) including changes to their advertising policies, account suspensions, or algorithm changes that affect campaign performance
- We are not liable for the actions, inactions, or decisions of any party contacted through our outreach services
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for fraud or death or personal injury caused by our negligence.
10. Termination
By you
You may cancel ongoing monthly management services at any time by providing written notice to hello@launchmypatent.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle. No partial-month refunds are issued.
By us
We may terminate the engagement immediately if you: provide materially false information about your patent or invention; use our services for any unlawful purpose; fail to make payment within 14 days of the due date after written notice; or breach any material term of these Terms.
Upon termination for cause, you remain liable for any fees accrued to the termination date. Refunds for work already completed are not available upon termination for cause.
Effect of termination
Upon termination, we will provide you with any completed deliverables that have been paid for. Ongoing management of accounts and campaigns ceases at the termination date. You retain ownership of any accounts, content, and website we built for your engagement.
11. Website Use
You may use this Website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
- Use this Website in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international laws or regulations
- Transmit any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising or promotional material
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Website or its related systems
- Use automated tools to scrape, crawl, or index the Website without written permission
- Reproduce, duplicate, copy, or resell any part of the Website’s content without our written permission
This Website is provided “as is.” We make no warranty that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Website at any time without notice.
12. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. Any disputes arising from these Terms or our services that cannot be resolved informally will be subject to binding arbitration rather than litigation, except where prohibited by law.
Before initiating any formal dispute process, you agree to contact us in good faith at hello@launchmypatent.com to attempt to resolve the matter informally. We will make a genuine effort to resolve any dispute within 30 days of receiving written notice.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For active clients, material changes to Terms governing ongoing engagements will be communicated by email with at least 14 days’ notice before taking effect.
Your continued use of the Website or services after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
