Introduction
Welcome to Nordsides. By accessing our website, mobile application, or any other platform or service we provide (collectively, the "Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"), our Privacy Policy, and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any of these terms, you are prohibited from using or accessing our Platform.
Eligibility
The Platform is available only to individuals who are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts under applicable law. By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements.
Account Registration
To access certain features of the Platform, you may be required to register for an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.
Investment and Financial Risks
Investing in real estate, including through fractional ownership, involves substantial risk, including the possible loss of your entire investment. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investments in real estate are generally illiquid, meaning your ability to sell your investment may be limited.
Before making any investment, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You should consult with a financial professional if you have any questions or concerns about the suitability of an investment.
Nordsides does not provide investment, tax, or legal advice. The information provided through the Platform is for informational purposes only and should not be considered a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any investment.
Securities and Regulatory Compliance
The investment opportunities offered through the Platform may constitute securities under federal and state law. These securities have not been recommended or approved by any federal or state securities commission or regulatory authority. Furthermore, these authorities have not passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of the information presented.
All offerings of securities are made pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements. By participating in any offering, you may be required to represent that you meet certain investor qualification standards.
Platform Fees and Charges
Nordsides charges fees for the services provided through the Platform. These fees are disclosed prior to any investment and may include, but are not limited to, acquisition fees, ongoing management fees, and transaction fees. You agree to pay all applicable fees in connection with your use of the Platform and your investments.
Fees may be deducted directly from investment returns or charged separately to your account. We reserve the right to change our fee structure at any time, with appropriate notice to users.
