Terms of Use

Effective date: November 12, 2026

1. Acceptance of these terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of maxkopptech.com (the “Site”), the personal website of Max Kopp (“I,” “me,” or “the site operator”).

By visiting or using the Site, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. Informational, educational, and research purposes only

The Site is provided for general information about my background, research interests, projects, writing, and related activities. Content on the Site—including descriptions of research, prototypes, methods, images, awards, publications, and any results—is for informational, educational, and research-communication purposes only.

Nothing on the Site is medical advice, a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, or an offer to sell a product or device. Please also read the Disclaimer.

VitaSensor. Where the Site discusses VitaSensor, that project is a laboratory-stage research prototype. It is not a medical device, is not cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is not offered for sale, and has not undergone human testing. The official project website is thevitasensor.com. Nothing on this Site should be read as a clinical, FDA, or commercial-availability claim.

University affiliation. I am a student. Views, comments, and materials on this Site are my own and do not represent the views, positions, or endorsements of Rice University or any other institution.

I may update, correct, or remove content at any time. Research descriptions should not be read as claims of clinical accuracy or as evidence of human or clinical trials.

3. Intellectual property

The Site and its contents—including text, graphics, photographs, illustrations, logos, layout, and videos—are owned by me or used with permission and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.

The names “Max Kopp,” “Max Kopp Tech,” and related logos or branding, as they appear on the Site, are names or marks I use in connection with the Site. You may not use them in a way that suggests sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation without prior written permission, except as allowed by applicable law (for example, fair use or nominative fair use).

I have three U.S. patent applications. Those applications are pending and have not been granted. Nothing on the Site should be read as a claim that a patent has been issued, or as a grant of any license under any patent, patent application, or other intellectual property, unless I expressly agree in a separate written license.

You may view and print pages of the Site for your personal, non-commercial, informational use, provided you do not modify the content or remove notices. Any other copying, scraping, framing, redistribution, or derivative use requires prior written consent, except where the law permits it.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law
  • Submit false, misleading, or infringing information, or use the forms, email addresses, or chat widget to send spam, malware, or unsolicited advertising
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, other accounts, or related systems, or interfere with the Site’s operation or security
  • Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Site except with prior written authorization
  • Impersonate me or any other person or organization
  • Use automated means to access the Site in a way that overloads or disrupts it (reasonable indexing by generally available search engines is allowed)
  • Collect personal information of other visitors from the Site

I may refuse, block, or remove access or submissions that I believe violate these Terms or pose a security or legal risk.

5. Forms, email, meetings, and chat

If you submit a form, sign up for updates, send email, use the chat widget, or schedule a meeting, you agree that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that I may use it as described in the Privacy Policy. I will try to respond when appropriate but do not guarantee a reply or any particular outcome.

6. Third-party links and embeds

The Site may link to third-party websites (for example, professional profiles, news items, GitHub, or Google Scholar) and may load third-party services such as the Tidio chat widget, the Calendly scheduling widget on the Contact page, and Google Fonts. Related project sites, including thevitasensor.com, are also linked from the Site. Those services are not under my control, and I am not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. Your use of them is subject to their own terms and policies.

7. Disclaimers

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. I DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT ANY RESEARCH OR OTHER INFORMATION IS COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR SUITABLE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

TO THE EXTENT A JURISDICTION DOES NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, THOSE EXCLUSIONS APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

8. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MAX KOPP WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SITE OR RELIANCE ON ANY CONTENT, EVEN IF I HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100).

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS. IN THOSE CASES, LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

9. Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Max Kopp from and against claims, damages, losses, and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your misuse of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right, except to the extent caused by my willful misconduct.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that state and federal courts located in that state will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

11. Changes

I may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the Site after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

12. General

If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer, are the entire agreement between you and me regarding the Site.
