Terms of Service

K Street IQ is a research tool for lobbying firms, law firms, consultancies, and government-affairs professionals. It organizes publicly available information into:

• Issue search: which companies and organizations report lobbying on a policy issue, with estimated spending on that issue.
• Company profiles: a company's lobbying history, the firms and lobbyists it has used, the issues and bills it has lobbied on, federal awards it has received, and a short background summary, available as a report, a slide deck, and PDF or PowerPoint exports.
• Opportunity signals (when available): federal contract and grant opportunities a company may be positioned for, each with the reasons behind it.

The Service is built from public sources, including Lobbying Disclosure Act filings published by the U.S. Senate and House (LDA.gov), USAspending.gov, SAM.gov, Grants.gov, and Wikipedia. We link to the underlying source wherever we can.

Please understand the limits of this information:

• Public records can be incomplete, late, amended, or wrong. We reflect the records as published and as of the date we retrieved them. We do not independently verify them.
• Some figures are estimates. Lobbying filings do not split spending by issue, so "estimated spend on an issue" is our calculation, not a reported number. Federal award amounts reflect obligations reported to USAspending.gov, and some transaction types (such as many Other Transaction Agreements) may not appear there.
• Opportunity signals are leads, not predictions of outcome. They identify open opportunities that appear to fit a company's past federal work. They are not a forecast that the company will bid, win, or be eligible.
• Name matching requires your judgment. When you build a profile, you confirm which names and federal recipients belong to the company. The profile reflects the names you confirm.

The Service is not legal, financial, investment, or compliance advice. It does not tell you whether any person must register or report under lobbying, ethics, or procurement laws, and it does not replace your own professional judgment or your review of the original records. You are responsible for how you use the information, including in client pitches, filings, and business decisions.

• You must be at least 18 years old and use the Service for business or professional purposes.
• You must give accurate account information and keep your login credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account.
• Each login is for one named person. Logins may not be shared. Additional users must be added as seats on your plan.
• Tell us right away at support@kstreetiq.com if you believe your account has been accessed without permission.

• Free trial. A new account receives 2 company profiles at no charge, one time only. Free profiles do not reset, and an account that previously subscribed and cancelled does not receive new free profiles.
• Paid plans. Each plan includes a number of company profiles per month and a number of seats, as shown on our pricing page at the time you subscribe. Issue search is unlimited on every plan.
• Monthly allowance. Your profile allowance renews each month of your subscription, including on annual plans. Unused profiles expire at the end of each monthly period and do not roll over.
• Shared allowance. Everyone on an account shares the account's monthly allowance.
• Refreshing a profile. Refreshing a saved profile within 30 days of the last time it used a profile is free. A refresh after that uses one profile.
• Extra profiles. After the monthly allowance is used, you may buy additional profiles at the price shown in the Service (currently $10 each). We will ask you to confirm before each extra-profile charge, and we will charge your payment method on file when you confirm.
• Seats. The account owner can invite team members up to the plan's seat limit and can remove them at any time. Profiles built by a removed member remain with the account.

• Payment processing. Payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. By subscribing, you authorize us, through Stripe, to charge your payment method for subscription fees, extra profiles, and applicable taxes.
• Automatic renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) at the then-current price until you cancel.
• Upgrades take effect immediately. You will be charged a prorated amount for the remainder of the current billing period, and the higher allowance and seat limit apply at once.
• Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period.
• Cancellation. You can cancel at any time from the "Manage billing" page. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you keep access until then.
• Refunds. Except where required by law, fees already paid are non-refundable, including for unused profiles, unused seats, and partial billing periods.
• Price changes. We may change prices for future billing periods. We will notify you by email at least 30 days before a price change applies to your subscription. If you do not agree, you may cancel before the new price takes effect.
• Failed payments. If a payment fails, we may limit the account to read-only access (viewing saved profiles and issue search) until payment is resolved, and we may cancel the subscription if it is not resolved.
• Taxes. Prices do not include taxes unless stated. You are responsible for applicable sales, use, and similar taxes.

You agree not to:

• Copy, scrape, harvest, or download the Service's data in bulk, or use automated tools to access the Service, except through features we provide (such as exports).
• Resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service or its data as a dataset, database, or competing product.
• Share logins, or let people who are not seats on your plan use your account.
• Reverse engineer, probe, or interfere with the Service, its security, or other users' access.
• Use the Service to harass, threaten, or unlawfully target any person, including individual lobbyists or public officials named in public records.
• Use the Service in violation of any law, regulation, or professional rule that applies to you.

• Your content includes the profiles you save, the names you confirm, your sharing settings, and your account information. You own your content. You give us permission to host, process, and display it to provide the Service to you and your team.
• Exports. You may use the reports, decks, PDFs, and PowerPoint files you generate for your own business purposes, including sharing them with your colleagues, clients, and prospective clients. Please keep the source notes and attributions in the exports.
• Feedback. If you send us suggestions, we may use them without obligation to you.

The Service, including its software, design, features, scoring and estimation methods, and the K Street IQ name and branding, belongs to Law Dawg AI and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not transfer any ownership to you. Public records remain public. We do not claim ownership of the underlying government data.

The Service links to and relies on third-party websites and services, including government websites, Wikipedia, Stripe, and the hosting and email providers listed in our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for third-party websites or their availability, and your use of them is governed by their own terms.

We are actively developing K Street IQ. We may add, change, or remove features and data sources. If we remove a paid feature that is material to your plan, we will tell you in advance where practical.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, if your payment fails and is not resolved, or if we must do so to comply with law or protect the Service or other users. Where reasonable, we will give you notice first. You may stop using the Service and cancel at any time. Sections 2, 6 through 9, and 12 through 16 survive termination.

THE SERVICE AND ALL INFORMATION IN IT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LAW DAWG AI DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY OPPORTUNITY SIGNAL WILL RESULT IN ANY AWARD OR BUSINESS.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) LAW DAWG AI WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY; AND (B) LAW DAWG AI'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

You will defend and indemnify Law Dawg AI and its members, managers, and employees against third-party claims, and related losses and reasonable legal fees, arising from your misuse of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of law.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Travis County, Texas, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction. Before filing a claim, each party agrees to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting the other for at least 30 days.

• Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will notify account owners by email or in the Service at least 15 days before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.
• Entire agreement. These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service. A signed agreement between your organization and Law Dawg AI controls if it conflicts with these Terms.
• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• Severability and waiver. If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Not enforcing a provision is not a waiver.
• Notices. We will send notices to the email address on your account. You can send notices to support@kstreetiq.com.
