Quinn™ by Hyve, Inc.

Acceptable Use Policy
Version Date: May 15, 2024

Quinn™ is a product offered by Hyve, Inc. This Acceptable Use Policy (“Policy”) applies to the Quinn™ product and services, including Ask Quinn (“Quinn” or “Services”), offered by Hyve, Inc. (“Hyve,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

Artificial intelligence and machine learning have the potential to revolutionize investing. Quinn™ is a financial advice tool powered by Hyve’s proprietary algorithms to provide users with personalized financial advice and planning services. Quinn employs artificial intelligence and language models to facilitate communication between Quinn and its users. Ask Quinn™ is still in testing, and there are still kinks to work out. Therefore, we have developed this Acceptable Use Policy to ensure that Quinn™ is used safely and responsibly.

Prohibited Use of the Services

The Services should not be used for any of the following:

Investment Decisions

The Services, including any output from Quinn (“Output”), should not be used to make investment decisions for yourself or others. You must do your own research and must not rely on any Output to make decisions, including investment decisions. You should always consult with your legal, tax, and/or financial advisors before making any financial decisions.

Investment Advice

Output should never be considered investment advice or research. The Output may be materially inaccurate, and the Services do not consider all factors that may affect investment or other decision-making. They also do not account for individual goals, risk aversion, and other circumstances. The appropriateness of a particular investment depends on an investor’s personal situation and objectives.

Quinn™ is designed not to provide specific stock or investment recommendations. Should Quinn™ inadvertently provide such a recommendation, it is not endorsing that stock. Output should never be considered a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold a security, nor an offer to sell or solicitation to purchase any security, future, or other financial instrument or product.
