You are responsible for deciding what, if anything, to pursue and for conducting any additional research or professional consultation appropriate to your situation.
The full Terms below govern your use of this website, the Opportunity Compass™, your Opportunity Diagnosis™, and related content and services.
1. Acceptance of Terms
The Gracepoint Group, LLC, a California limited liability company ("Gracepoint," "we," "us," or "our")
and
the individual or entity accessing or using OpportunityReasoning.com, the Opportunity Compass™, or related services ("you" or "your").

- Available time
- Financial or practical constraints
- Risk tolerance
- Other circumstances relevant to your situation
Based on that information, the Opportunity Compass may generate a personalized Opportunity Diagnosis™ and related educational material.
The purpose of these outputs is to help you identify directions that may be worth further investigation.
They are not guarantees, predictions, or instructions to pursue any particular opportunity.

The quality and relevance of generated results depend in part on the information you provide.
You are responsible for ensuring that information you submit is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
You should not submit information you do not have the right to provide.
You should also avoid providing sensitive information unless it is necessary for the service and you are comfortable doing so.
