CapstoneBridge policy

Terms of service

The commercial and delivery conditions for CapstoneBridge mentoring engagements.

1. Scope

Each engagement should define the support level, sessions, deliverables, milestones, exclusions, deadline, student responsibilities, revision rounds and fee before delivery begins.

2. Payments

Consultations and smaller packages may require full advance payment. Larger engagements may use milestone payments. Hardware, hosting, datasets, printing, paid software and other third-party costs are separate unless expressly included.

3. Revisions and delays

Included revisions are stated in the scope. Delays caused by missing student inputs, changing university requirements, unavailable third-party systems or expanded scope may change the schedule and price.

4. Student participation

The student is expected to attend agreed sessions, complete assigned tasks, test the work, communicate changes promptly and remain able to explain and defend the project.

5. Outcomes

CapstoneBridge does not guarantee grades, faculty approval, publication, patentability, placement, business performance or uninterrupted third-party services.

6. Intellectual property

Ownership of custom student work follows the written engagement. Pre-existing templates, teaching materials, reusable libraries and general know-how remain with their original owner unless transferred in writing.

7. Conduct and refusal

Harassment, threats, payment fraud, illegal requests, fabricated data and academic impersonation are grounds for refusal or termination.

8. Project-specific terms

These website terms are a general framework. A quotation or engagement agreement may include additional, project-specific conditions, and those written terms govern that engagement where they differ.
