Terms of Use

General
Please read all of the following terms and conditions of use ("Terms of Use"), which govern your access and use of this web site and related sites, products, and services provided by Abrigo (collectively, "Products"). By continuing to access or use the Products, you signify your acceptance of these Terms of Use. You also hereby acknowledge that you have read and understand the Privacy Policy and consent to Abrigo's collection and use of your personal information as set out therein.

The Sageworks Analyst application is designed to help non-finance professionals make better decisions by providing easy-to-understand, plain language analyses.

It should not be used, however, for the following purposes:

  • Loan Review - The Sageworks Analyst application can be used when extending credit but only in conjunction with a full credit analysis process.
  • Major Capital Purchase Decisions - Before adding fixed assets to a company, substantial planning and thought should be applied by the principals of a company. The Sageworks Analyst application is only one tool that should be used in combination with other analytical tools and the advice of competent professionals, such as CPAs and bankers.
  • Investment Decisions - While it is true the Sageworks Analyst application can be helpful as part of an investment decision, it would be a decidedly poor idea to rely solely on the Sageworks Analyst application (or any expert system) for making an investment decision. Please do not do so - use our reports in conjunction with other investment advice, information, and tools.

Abrigo and/or its subsidiaries will not be responsible for the content of any Abrigo report where:

  • The text of our reports is modified by any outside party.
  • Decision makers rely on Abrigo as their primary source of advice regarding business decisions. Abrigo must be used in combination with the advice of competent legal and finance professionals in order to be effective.

Abrigo and/or its subsidiaries collect and aggregate industry-specific data from third-party sources and store it anonymously:

  • Abrigo will not publish or sell personally identifiable data (information that identifies a particular client/customer or other individual) without your express permission. However Abrigo reserves the right to and does create, publish, and sell/license industry information, financial models, and research based upon data that you provide. Company data provided by users will be rendered unidentifiable prior to such use. Abrigo may also use your report data to publish indexes and/or other reports that provide insight into private sector financial health.
  • Do not enter data or other information into our systems or use our applications if you do not want your data or other information being used in this manner or contributed to our aggregate database.
