Executive Non-Disclosure & Sovereign IP Rights
Your roadmap is your greatest asset. Every venture engagement begins with a comprehensive Mutual NDA, guaranteeing that you retain 100% ownership of your Intellectual Property—from initial ideation through to global scale and exit.
1. Introduction: These Terms govern the strategic, consulting, and co-founding engagements facilitated by YashNic Venture Builder. We offer a spectrum of engagement models designed to match a startup's stage, budget, and strategic needs.
2. Engagement Models: Our services range from light-touch consulting to deep co-founding partnerships. The specific obligations, risk profiles, and remuneration (cash vs. equity) are strictly defined by the specific model chosen (The Consultant , The Adviser , The Partner , or The Co-Founder) and will be formalised in a bespoke signed agreement.
3. Fractional Leadership: Under specific models, YashNic provides Fractional CPTO or COO leadership. While we take direct responsibility for technical strategy, team performance, and operational excellence, YashNic is acting as an advisory and executive execution partner.
4. Shared Risk & Execution: In equity-based models (such as The Co-Founder), we share the execution risk. However, YashNic shall not be held financially liable for the ultimate market failure, lack of product-market fit, or bankruptcy of the partner venture. Our success is tied to yours, but market dynamics dictate final outcomes.
5. Scope & Good Faith: We execute our duties in absolute good faith to scale the venture. To prevent scope creep, specific hours, deliverables, and operational boundaries are agreed upon in writing. Radical pivots or entire platform rebuilds outside the initial scope may require renegotiation of terms.
6. Confidentiality: All venture pitches, business models, and financial data shared with YashNic during discovery and execution are treated with the strictest confidentiality and are subject to immediate Non-Disclosure protocols.
Data Collection: We collect highly sensitive corporate data, pitch decks, financial projections, proprietary intellectual property details, and founder background information.
Data Usage: This information is used exclusively to evaluate partnership viability, structure venture deals, and execute operational scaling strategies.
Data Protection: Venture data is stored in highly secure, access-controlled environments, accessible only by the immediate executive partners assigned to your venture.
Strict Non-Disclosure & IP Integrity: We understand that IP is the lifeblood of a startup. YashNic will never share, sell, or distribute your proprietary business models or technical secrets to third parties without your explicit, written executive consent.
