Terms of Use

Last updated: 7 May 2026

Welcome to Uncle Mini Investor CRM. These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the Uncle Mini Investor CRM application and the unclemini.com and unclemini.app websites ("the Service"). By purchasing, downloading, creating a workspace, or otherwise using the Service, you indicate your acceptance of these Terms and form a binding contract with Uncle Mini. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

Important — Pipeline Tracking Tool, Not Investment Advice

Uncle Mini Investor CRM is a tool for organising your own fundraising pipeline. It is not investment advice, fundraising advice, legal counsel, or a substitute for professional advisers. Outputs from the Service are descriptive summaries of the data you enter, not recommendations or predictions.

You are responsible for verifying investor information before outreach, for complying with applicable anti-spam, data-protection, and outreach laws (such as GDPR, CAN-SPAM, CASL, and equivalents in your jurisdiction), and for engaging qualified legal, financial, and fundraising advisers for deal terms, term sheets, and regulatory matters. See Section 8 for details.

1. What Uncle Mini Investor CRM Is

Uncle Mini Investor CRM is a local-first tool for managing your fundraising pipeline: investor profiles, partner contacts, communications, meetings, round status, and pipeline stages. The application runs entirely in your browser. Your data is stored in a folder you choose on your own computer or in your own cloud storage (for example OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive). Uncle Mini does not operate a server that stores your data.

The Service is a productivity tool. It is not designed for, and may not be suitable for: investment due diligence, regulatory filings (for example with securities regulators), fundraising compliance, or any use that requires a specific compliance, audit, or record-keeping standard.

2. Trial Period

Uncle Mini Investor CRM is available as a free trial for 14 days, with full functionality. After the trial period, continued use requires a paid license.

3. Licensing and Use

When you purchase Uncle Mini Investor CRM, you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the software, governed in detail by the License Agreement. You may:

You may not:

4. License Use and Unusual Activity

Your license is intended for use by you and members of your team. We monitor license activations to identify unusual or excessive use that suggests license sharing beyond a single team. Examples of activity that may be considered unusual include:

If we detect unusual activity, we may, at our discretion: refuse further activations on the affected license, disable the license for any future activation, or take other reasonable steps to protect against abuse. Workspaces that are already activated at the time of any such action will continue to function. The Service does not re-verify licenses after activation.

If you believe action has been taken on your license in error, contact support@unclemini.com. The full clause is set out in the License Agreement.

5. Pricing, Payment, Refunds, and Right of Withdrawal

Pricing is displayed on unclemini.com and at the point of purchase. Payments are processed by Gumroad, and its terms apply to the payment itself.

The license you purchase includes 12 months of updates from the date of purchase. After that period, the software continues to work but does not receive further updates unless you purchase an upgrade or a new license.

Trial evaluation. Uncle Mini Investor CRM is offered with a 14-day free trial that begins when you create your first workspace. The trial is fully functional and is provided so that you have a fair opportunity to evaluate the Software before paying.

Immediate access and waiver of right of withdrawal. By completing a purchase, you:

Purchases are non-refundable. All sales are final. The waiver of the 14-day right of withdrawal described above does not affect any other consumer rights you have under applicable law.

6. Your Data and Investor Contacts

Your investor pipeline data - including investor and partner profiles, contact details, communication history, meeting notes, fundraising round information, and any other content you enter - stays in the folder you choose. Uncle Mini does not read, transmit, or store your data on any server operated by Uncle Mini.

When you enter information about investors, partners, or other individuals, you act as the data controller for that information. You are solely responsible for:

If you choose to store your data in a cloud service like OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive, that service's terms apply to the storage and transmission of your data.

7. Multi-User Editing

Uncle Mini Investor CRM supports sharing a workspace with multiple team members through the same cloud folder. Because the Service has no server, synchronization between devices is handled through the cloud storage provider you choose (for example OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive).

When the Service detects that a teammate has saved changes while you were editing, a banner appears informing you, and when you next save, a merge dialog opens. The dialog shows you what each side changed and offers four options: keep everything (which merges both sides), keep only your version, keep only the other version, or decide later.

If you choose to merge:

You understand and accept that:

8. Not Investment, Fundraising, or Legal Advice

Uncle Mini Investor CRM may display summaries, counts, stage breakdowns, conversion ratios, pipeline health indicators, follow-up reminders, and similar pipeline analytics (collectively, "Pipeline Outputs"). These features exist solely to help you organise and review your fundraising activity at a high level.

Descriptive, not predictive. All Pipeline Outputs are descriptive summaries of the data you have entered. They are not recommendations, predictions, scoring of investor quality, or assessments of likelihood of funding. They do not evaluate the suitability of any investor for your business or the suitability of your business for any investor.

Not investment advice. Nothing in the Service constitutes investment advice, securities advice, financial advice, or any form of regulated advisory service. The Service does not create an adviser-client relationship between you and Uncle Mini. You should consult qualified legal, financial, and fundraising advisers before acting on any term sheet, offer, valuation, deal structure, or other fundraising-related decision.

Not fundraising or compliance advice. The Service does not advise on fundraising strategy, regulatory filings (such as those required by securities regulators), accreditation status, solicitation rules, or related compliance matters. Determining what is required, lawful, and appropriate in your situation is your responsibility and your advisers'.

No outcome guarantees. Uncle Mini makes no representation that use of the Service will result in any investor responding, taking a meeting, providing terms, or completing any investment. Outreach activity, response rates, and fundraising outcomes depend on many factors outside the Service's control.

You are the source of truth for investor information. Information about investors stored in the Service is what you enter. Uncle Mini does not validate, verify, enrich, or warrant the accuracy of any investor's name, role, contact details, fund focus, fund size, prior investments, or current activity. You are responsible for verifying investor information from authoritative sources before outreach or reliance.

Material non-public information. Information shared with you by investors, or with you about target companies, may constitute material non-public information ("MNPI") under applicable securities laws. You are solely responsible for handling such information in compliance with insider-trading, market-abuse, confidentiality, and securities laws. The Service does not classify, segregate, or restrict access to MNPI; you must implement appropriate controls outside the Service.

Confidentiality of third-party information. Information you enter about investors, partners, target companies, or third parties may be subject to confidentiality obligations (such as non-disclosure agreements, fiduciary duties, or implied confidentiality). The Service does not detect or enforce these obligations; you are responsible for honouring them and for not entering information into the Service if doing so would breach them.

9. No Warranty

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. This includes, but is not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Uncle Mini does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, free of harmful components, or that any defects will be corrected. You use the Service at your own risk.

Without limiting the foregoing, Uncle Mini specifically disclaims any warranty that the Service's pipeline analytics, summaries, reminders, or outreach features will produce any particular result, including any fundraising, meeting, response, or business outcome.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Uncle Mini and anyone associated with it will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, business interruption, lost fundraising opportunities, lost or delayed deals, regulatory fines (for example for unlawful outreach or data-protection breaches), legal fees, or any other commercial damages or losses, arising out of or related to your use of the Service or your reliance on any Pipeline Output.

The total liability of Uncle Mini for any claim relating to the Service, regardless of the cause of action, is limited to the amount you paid for the license in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. To the extent that any limitation in this Section is held unenforceable in your jurisdiction, the remaining limitations continue to apply, and Uncle Mini's liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Mandatory consumer rights. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or limits any right or remedy that cannot be excluded, restricted, or limited under the mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence. Where any limitation or exclusion in these Terms is held to exceed the maximum permitted by such mandatory law, that limitation or exclusion shall be read down to the maximum permitted, and the remainder of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect.

11. Your Responsibilities

You are responsible for:

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Uncle Mini, its operator, employees, and contributors against any claims, losses, costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to:

This indemnity does not apply to the extent a claim arises from Uncle Mini's wilful misconduct or, where applicable law requires, gross negligence.

13. Changes to the Service and Terms

Uncle Mini may update the Service from time to time. Updates are delivered through the hosted application and are typically backward-compatible with your existing data.

Uncle Mini may update these Terms. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top. Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the updated Terms. Material changes will be communicated to active customers by email where reasonably possible.

14. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. Your license terminates automatically if you materially breach these Terms.

If the Service is discontinued, your existing purchased copy will continue to function as-is on any device where it has been loaded. Your data remains yours, in the location you chose.

Sections 6 (Your Data and Investor Contacts), 8 (Not Investment, Fundraising, or Legal Advice), 9 (No Warranty), 10 (Limitation of Liability), 11 (Your Responsibilities), 12 (Indemnification), and 15 (General Provisions) survive termination.

15. General Provisions

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if it cannot be so modified, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the License Agreement and the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Uncle Mini regarding the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, communications, representations, or agreements (whether oral or written). You have not relied on any statement or representation made by Uncle Mini that is not contained in these Terms.

Waiver. No failure or delay by Uncle Mini in exercising any right under these Terms operates as a waiver of that right, and no single or partial exercise of any right precludes any other or further exercise of that right or any other right.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your license, in whole or in part, without Uncle Mini's prior written consent, except that you may assign these Terms to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all your business or assets, provided you give Uncle Mini written notice. Uncle Mini may assign these Terms and the rights granted under them freely.

Force majeure. Neither party is liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, pandemic, government action, internet or utility outages, or failures of third-party services or infrastructure on which the Service depends.

Notices. Notices to Uncle Mini under these Terms must be sent to support@unclemini.com. Notices to you may be sent to the email address associated with your purchase or, where no such address is available, by posting on unclemini.com.

Export controls and sanctions. You represent that you are not located in, and will not use the Service from, a country or territory subject to a comprehensive trade embargo by the United States, the European Union, or the United Kingdom, and that you are not a person or entity on any restricted-party, denied-party, or sanctions list maintained by those jurisdictions. You may not use, export, or re-export the Service in violation of applicable export-control or sanctions laws.

Headings. Headings in these Terms are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.

Electronic communications. You consent to receive communications from Uncle Mini in electronic form (email and on-site notices). Electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing or be signed.

Informal dispute resolution. Before commencing any formal proceeding, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute by contacting support@unclemini.com with a written description of the dispute and the relief sought. The parties shall negotiate in good faith for at least 30 days before either party commences formal proceedings. This requirement does not apply to claims that require urgent injunctive relief.

No professional relationship. Nothing in these Terms creates a professional-services relationship, employment, agency, partnership, joint venture, or fiduciary relationship between you and Uncle Mini.

Independent contractors. The parties are independent contractors. Neither party has authority to bind the other or make representations on the other's behalf.

16. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Iceland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved through good-faith negotiation will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Iceland.
