03 Account Registration

To access the Service, you must register for an account. When registering, you agree to:

We use passwordless authentication (magic links sent to your email address). You are responsible for maintaining access to the email address associated with your account. If you lose access to that email address, you may lose access to your PipelineScout account.

We reserve the right to refuse registration, terminate accounts, or remove content at our sole discretion if we believe a violation of these Terms has occurred.

Free Plan. The free plan is subject to usage limitations as described on our pricing page. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue free plan features at any time.

Price Changes. We will provide at least 30 days' notice before changing subscription prices. Your continued use of a paid plan after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
