- Status: DRAFT for the lawyer (Track L, L-3), 5 Nov 2026. Drafted in step 7-2 for the public page
/terms(screen PUB-9). The lawyer reviews it at L-4, before Gate RD (Q4). It is not final, and it is not legal advice. The institution's agreement with KineticIQ comes first wherever the two differ. - Placeholders are in square brackets. Nothing in brackets may be published as written.
Who may use the service
People whom their institution has invited: supervisors, the institution's admins, and KineticIQ's support accounts that the institution has approved for one case. Each person uses their own account and keeps their password and codes to themselves.
What the service does
It reads the results tables of a thesis or a paper, recomputes the numbers that must agree with each other, and raises questions where they cannot. Each question shows its arithmetic. It never decides anything about a student: the supervisor decides.
What you agree to
- Upload only theses your institution allows you to check, in line with its rules and the student's consent.
- Do not type a student's name or number into a case label or a note.
- Keep reports and exports confidential, within your institution's rules.
- Do not try to reach another person's cases, another institution's data, or the service's own systems.
- Do not send automated traffic beyond normal use, and do not try to get round a limit.
Availability and changes
The service may pause for maintenance; a page says so, and saved work stays safe. KineticIQ may change the service, and tells institutions about changes that affect them, as their agreement says.
Ending your access
Your institution's admin can end your access. Your institution's agreement says what happens to its data at the end.
