Terms & Conditions
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the MNDL Bio online platform ("Platform") and the services provided by MNDL Bio Ltd., an Israeli company ("MNDL Bio"). By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please refrain from using the Platform.
1
Services Provided
MNDL Bio offers services for recombinant gene expression optimization across selected host organisms through the Platform. While we provide tools, algorithms, and expertise for optimization, current use of the Platform is for non-commercial purposes only. We do not guarantee specific outcomes or results from the use of these services.
We reserve the right to cancel your order if we determine, in our reasonable discretion, that it poses a biosecurity, biosafety, patent infringement, export restriction, or feasibility concern. Any cancellation will be without penalty to MNDL Bio. Our right to provide services to other parties remains unaffected, as long as we comply with confidentiality obligations.
2
Customer Responsibilities and No Guarantee of Results
You are responsible for providing accurate and complete sequence information as requested by the tool. This includes details such as 5'UTR, coding region, and any specific requirements or constraints for the optimization process. The tool will perform the optimization based on the data you provide.
By using our service, you agree that you have the rights to the provided sequence and that it complies with all relevant laws and regulations. You also confirm that the sequence does not contain any restricted or hazardous materials.
Our services focus on scientific optimization processes, but the final performance depends on many factors outside our control, including experimental conditions, protocols, and environmental variables.
MNDL Bio shall not be held responsible for any direct, indirect, or consequential damages arising from the use of the Platform or services. This includes scenarios where optimized sequences fail to produce the desired results or do not exhibit improved expression.​

Use of the Platform and Prohibited Usage
The optimized sequence:
The optimized sequence is intended for your internal research use only. You may not sell, resell, transfer, or distribute the optimized sequence to any third party. You are solely responsible for ensuring the optimized sequence complies with all applicable laws and regulations for your intended use. You are prohibited from reverse engineering, deconstructing, or disassembling the optimized sequence and from using the optimized sequence in humans, food, drugs, devices, cosmetics, or for human or animal consumption without obtaining necessary approvals.
​
The Platform:
The Platform is intended for scientific research purposes only. You agree to use it in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
You shall not use the Platform for any unlawful activity, nor attempt to reverse-engineer, tamper with, or exploit the services.
Milk proteins or genes related to milk proteins cannot be submitted or processed on the Platform.
You may not copy, distribute, or reproduce any part of the Platform.
4
Intellectual Property
All intellectual property related to the Platform, including software, content, algorithms, and design, remains the sole property of MNDL Bio.
The intellectual property rights for optimized gene sequences generated through the Platform are retained by the user. However, all other intellectual property, including the optimization methodology and algorithms, belongs exclusively to MNDL Bio.
You may not copy, distribute, or use any content from the Platform without prior written consent from MNDL Bio.
No rights to each other's intellectual property are granted except as expressly stated in these Terms and Conditions.
