Terms of Service

Welcome to iAngels! We empower the next generation of angel investing.

iAngels is an online startup investment arena where startup founders, angels and investors meet to execute successful and efficient financing. In a two phase investment process, experienced lead angels first make a commitment to a startup’s round of financing and then invite other crowd investors to join their lead at lower amounts. We believe the initial endorsement made by experienced angels is primal to the investment process as it forms a quality control measure for the broader investor community. By providing investors with the opportunity to invest responsibly alongside experienced angels and lowering the bar for minimal investments, iAngels turns millions of people into potential angels, thereby expanding the ecosystem and enabling a large number of startups to get funded.

Our users can be founders of a startup looking to raise capital, or investors who would like to invest in startups.

These Terms of Service set out the general terms governing your use of the iAngels.co website (“Website”). They apply to you as soon as you first use the Website. By using the Website, or allowing anyone to use the Website through your account, you shall be deemed as agreeing to be bound by these Terms of Service (the “Terms”). These Terms govern your access to and use of the Service, Website and applications offered by iAngels (the “Service”). If you do not wish to continue to be bound by these Terms, please stop using the Website now.

These Terms of Service constitute a legal agreement between you, as the user of the Website, and iAngels Crowd Ltd, as the owner of the Website (hereinafter referred as “we”, “us” or “iAngels”). Throughout these Terms we will refer to you as “you” or “the User”.

The Basics

iAngels invites startups to upload information about their venture. It can be in the form of Pitch Deck, Videos, References, Images and Investment Documents. iAngels is a community and as such, we honor one another’s confidential information. However, iAngels cannot guarantee that certain users will not distribute or misuse information on the Website. Additionally, given that iAngels is an online platform, we cannot prevent unauthorized viewing in a case of a software bug or hacker attack.

iAngels does not make investment recommendations, verify the accuracy of statements made by startups, or conduct thorough background checks on investors.

Investing in private company securities is a long term, high risk investment, also governed by different Securities Law. Startups and investors should seek independent legal advice and conduct due diligence on their own account prior to engaging in any transactions. iAngels is not responsible for the consequences of transactions that take place on its Website or on any other platform.

These Terms do not grant you the right to use any branding or logos used in our Services. Don’t remove, obscure, or alter any legal notices displayed in or along with our Services. In particular, these Terms do not allow you to use the iAngels name or any of the iAngels trademarks, logos, domain names, or other distinctive brand features. Upon acceptance of these Terms, iAngels grants to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferrable, revocable license to use the Service. This license can be used solely by you, and can be revoked by iAngels at its discretion if misused or exploited in any way.
    • You give iAngels (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, display, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any content provided by you on our platform. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services and ownership in your specific content shall vest with you.
    • Don’t misuse our Services. For example, don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method other than the interface and the instructions that we provide. You may use our Services only as permitted by law, including applicable export and re-export control laws and regulations.

We may review content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law.

Investors’ Registration and Authorization Process

You are required to complete and submit an Investor Questionnaire, which includes information that will allow us to determine whether investments in shares are suitable to your situation, based on iAngels internal suitability guidelines for investment and any suitability standards posted on our Website and regulatory controls and regulations imposed on individuals to participate in investments. Your personnel information may be used by us and may be also used by any Portfolio Company (the issuer) and any escrow agent for any funds transferred or for shares that you purchase, including such things as your name and address to be entered on the registry of the transfer agent for such shares. We may ask you to update this information from time to time, as per our policies. Your personnel information will be handled in accordance with the iAngels Privacy Policy.

Until you have completed it you will not be able to act as an investor on our Website. The purpose of the Investor Questionnaire is to allow us to make a determination as to whether you have the experience, expertise and knowledge required to understand the risks involved in, and make your own investment decisions about, the investments available through the Website. You will be presented with a set of questions, and based on the answers you provide, we will make a determination as to whether or not to authorize you to act as an investor. In the case of a corporate or entity, completion of the Investor Questionnaire by your representative constitutes completion by you, and the outcome of such completion will be binding on you even if you subsequently replace your representative.

Not all persons who register on our Website are allowed to act as investors. There may be regulatory limitations that apply on us and which we will need to assess prior to approving you as an authorized investor. In order to become an authorized investor on our platform, you must complete our Investment Questionnaire, and if applicable to you, must self-certify yourself as an “accredited investor” or a “sophisticated investor” (collectively “Accredited”) as promulgated under applicable law and further described in these Terms of Service below. The definition of an Accredited investor varies in each country. You acknowledge that the terms “accredited investor” or a “sophisticated investor” have specific definitions under applicable statutory rules and regulations, and that iAngels is relying on the authenticity of your statements as proof that you fall within the relevant definition. You may only self-certify if the contents of the relevant statement actually apply to you, meaning that you are in fact an “accredited investor” or a “sophisticated investor” as set forth electronically on our Website. These measures aim to protect our start-up companies from being deemed to make a “general solicitation” of their securities when using our Service. As regulation is complicated and can sometimes be ambiguous, we do not promise that the regulator concurs with your actions on the Service.

Without prejudice to our authorization processes, by executing the Terms you warrant to us that, in your view, you have the experience, expertise and knowledge to understand the risks involved in, and make your own investment decisions about, investments in startups and that all data provided by you within the Investor Questionnaire is genuine in all respects, accurate and true.

iAngels verifies the representations investors make based on personal conversations and references and is not liable to any false declaration or warranty provided by an investor, nor to any act or omission of such investor.

Only after you complete to fulfill the Investor Questionnaire and are approved by us, will you be able to view the deal terms of different startups’ fundraising rounds or invest in such fundraising rounds on our platform. We do not conduct a background check to verify the truthfulness of investors’ declaration and iAngels shall not be liable or held accountable in any manner to the truthfulness or accuracy of any declaration or warranty provided by such investor, including without limitation to whether such investor is Accredited or not. However, certain investors may be required to present documentation in support of their Accredited investor status in order to make an investment. Startups should be mindful of the regulatory requirements in their jurisdiction and should perform due diligence on potential investors accordingly.

The decision whether to authorize you to act as an investor on our Website platform is entirely ours. We may, at our discretion, permit you to complete the Investor Questionnaire again at a future date, but we are under no obligation to do so, and you should assume that our initial determination not to authorize you to act as an investor will apply to you until further notice. We are not liable to you for any losses, damages or costs arising from our decision not to authorize you as a qualified investor on our Website.
