4. Student content and academic integrity

You retain ownership of the blogs, whitepapers, projects and reports you publish. You grant Externovate a limited licence to host, display and distribute your content on the platform. You must not upload plagiarised work, falsified academic records or content you don't have the right to share.

6. User-generated content

You are solely responsible for the content you post. We may remove content that violates these terms, applicable law or the rights of others.

7. Internships and opportunities

Externovate is a platform for fresh-graduate and early-career opportunities, not a generic job board. We do not employ interns and do not guarantee that you will receive an internship, admission, funding or employment through the platform. All engagements are between you and the relevant enterprise, university, mentor or partner.

8. CINTENT™ AI recommendations

Recommendations, matches and scores generated by CINTENT™ are advisory. They are not a guarantee of outcome and should not replace your own judgment or professional advice.

  • No harassment, discrimination or unlawful behaviour.
  • No scraping, reverse engineering or unauthorised automation.
  • No misrepresentation of identity, affiliation or credentials.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. You may close your account at any time from your dashboard or via the Contact page.

Externovate is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Cognivanta Labs is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform.

13. Dispute handling

These terms are governed by the laws of India, unless otherwise required by applicable local law. Disputes will be resolved through good-faith discussion first, and through appropriate competent courts if unresolved.

These terms are provided for platform transparency and should be reviewed by legal counsel before final commercial launch.
