Terms & Conditions

Name change notice: The advisor platform operated by Bridgetown Research is now called Bridgetown Access, formerly Founders Advisory Network. These terms continue to govern your engagement under either name.

Bridgetown Research's framework ensures a secure, legally compliant and professional engagement between you, Bridgetown Research and our clients (for example, a call, survey or a virtual/in-person meeting). As a prerequisite for working with us, you must read and agree to our Terms of Engagement, Terms of Payment, Bridgetown Research's Expert Code of Conduct and Privacy Policy. Please ensure you review these documents before proceeding.

Some of your key rights and obligations from these documents are summarised below.

1. Eligibility

You agree that you are eligible to participate in an engagement. In particular, you have obtained any necessary consents or waivers from your employer or any third party (if relevant) in order to participate.

You understand that you must not participate in an engagement if it would give rise to any conflicts of interest, breach of law, regulations or obligations to any third parties or if the subject matter of the engagement concerns your current employer.

You agree not to provide investment, financial, accountancy, legal, medical or other professional advice during an engagement.

2. Confidentiality and Material Non-Public Information

You will not disclose any confidential or proprietary information during an engagement.

You will not disclose any material non-public information during an engagement. This means any non-public information relating to a specific publicly traded security that a reasonable investor would consider important in making an investment decision and would likely have an impact on the price of a security.

You will not disclose your participation in or the subject matter of an engagement, or the identity of Bridgetown Research's client, to any third party.

You will not use, benefit from or transact based on any information that is shared with you during an engagement.

3. Your Personal Data

Bridgetown Research may share your personal data, including your name, contact details and career history, perspectives and fields of expertise, with its clients in order to arrange your participation in an engagement.

Unless agreed separately, our clients will only evaluate your personal data in the context of their specific project and not for any other purposes. Any client who completes an engagement with you may retain certain limited personal information for compliance purposes.

4. Payment

If you are eligible for payment, you will be compensated at the agreed rate and payment will be prorated based on the time spent interacting with our clients. If applicable, for surveys or reports, you may be compensated at a fixed fee determined on a per-engagement basis.

We aim to issue bank transfers to USD accounts within 5–7 business days and to international accounts within 15 business days.

Bridgetown Research reserves the right to withhold payment for engagements that do not meet our quality standards or violate these terms.

5. Accurate Representation & Professionalism

You must not deliberately misrepresent, mislead or deceive Bridgetown Research employees, clients or third parties regarding your career history, expertise and relevant experience.

You agree to behave in a professional manner towards Bridgetown Research employees, clients and third parties at all times.

You agree to be available and on time for scheduled Bridgetown Research engagements.

6. Limitation of Liability

Bridgetown Research's liability is limited to compensation paid in the preceding 12 months; no indirect or consequential damages apply.

7. Acknowledgement
