These Website Terms of Use govern access to and use of firstrain.group, First Rain Editorial Insights, and other public website content operated by Seeds of Life Creations, LLC d/b/a First Rain Group. In these Terms, “First Rain,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Seeds of Life Creations, LLC d/b/a First Rain Group.
By accessing or using the website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the website.
2. Informational Purpose
The website and Editorial Insights provide general information, strategic frameworks, and descriptions of First Rain’s consulting services. The website and Editorial Insights do not constitute legal, tax, accounting, securities, or investment advice. You should consult qualified professionals concerning decisions that require regulated or professional advice.
Viewing the website, subscribing to Editorial Insights, contacting First Rain, or receiving general information does not create a client, fiduciary, advisory, broker, or attorney-client relationship. A consulting relationship begins only through a written agreement signed by First Rain and the client.
Additional boundaries concerning securities, investment activities, charitable fundraising, and historical results appear in our Regulatory Disclosures, which are incorporated into these Terms by reference.
3. No Guarantee of Results
First Rain does not guarantee funding, donations, investments, revenue, returns, grants, contracts, introductions, institutional approval, or any other result. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Examples, projections, frameworks, historical outcomes, and illustrations depend on facts and circumstances that vary by organization and engagement.
4. Permitted Use
Subject to these Terms, First Rain grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable permission to access the website for lawful personal or internal organizational use.
You may link to public pages and may quote brief excerpts with accurate attribution to First Rain Group or the identified author. Any quotation must preserve its meaning and must not imply endorsement, affiliation, or approval.
Unless applicable law permits otherwise or First Rain gives prior written permission, you may not:
- copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license, modify, translate, or create derivative works from substantial portions of the website;
- remove copyright, trademark, attribution, or proprietary notices;

5. Intellectual Property
The website, Editorial Insights, text, graphics, design, photographs, diagrams, logos, and other content are owned by First Rain, its licensors, or the identified rights holders and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.
“First Rain,” “First Rain Group,” associated branding, and the First Rain logo may be trademarks or service marks of Seeds of Life Creations, LLC. Third-party names, marks, and logos belong to their respective owners. Their appearance does not grant a license or necessarily imply sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or approval.
6. Communications and Submissions
Information you submit through the website or by email is handled as described in our Privacy Policy. Do not send passwords, payment-card information, government identification numbers, confidential securities materials, or other sensitive information through a general website inquiry.
Contacting First Rain does not by itself create a duty of confidentiality, professional privilege, or consulting relationship. Confidentiality obligations arise only through an applicable written agreement or other express written commitment.
7. Acceptable Conduct
You may not interfere with the website’s operation or security, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person or organization, submit false information, or use the website in violation of law or another person’s rights.
8. Third-Party Websites and Services
The website may link to third-party websites, publications, platforms, and services. First Rain does not control and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, privacy practices, or terms. A link is provided for context or convenience and does not necessarily constitute endorsement.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the website and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” First Rain disclaims warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, noninfringement, uninterrupted availability, and freedom from harmful components.
We aim to provide useful and accurate information, but website content may become incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. You remain responsible for evaluating information before relying on it.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Seeds of Life Creations, LLC, First Rain, and their owners, officers, employees, contractors, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost profits, lost opportunities, lost data, or business interruption arising from or related to website use.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the aggregate liability of those parties for claims arising from or related to the website will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.
11. Changes and Availability
We may update the website and these Terms, and may suspend or discontinue any public feature or content. Updated Terms become effective when posted with a revised effective date. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
12. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or the website must be brought in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and each party consents to their personal jurisdiction and venue.
13. Severability and No Waiver
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect, and the affected provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
