Terms of Use

Last updated: July 10, 2026

These Terms of Use explain the rules for using SynQBench.

By using SynQBench, you agree to these terms.

What SynQBench does

SynQBench helps users organise, simplify, save, edit, share, print, and calculate lab workflows.

SynQBench is a workflow support tool. It does not replace official laboratory protocols, institutional SOPs, risk assessments, professional judgement, training, or safety procedures.

User responsibility

You are responsible for reviewing and verifying all protocol outputs before using them.

Before using any protocol or calculation, you must check:

Volumes
Concentrations
Units
Incubation times
Temperatures
Centrifuge speeds
Equipment settings
Reagent names
Safety steps
Waste disposal requirements
Institutional SOPs and approvals

SynQBench may simplify, organise, or reformat protocol content, but it may also miss, misread, or incorrectly interpret information.

Do not rely on generated or simplified content without independent review and verification

Protocol Safety Disclaimer

SynQBench helps organise and simplify lab protocols, but it does not replace official SOPs, institutional safety rules, risk assessments, training, or professional judgement.

Before using any simplified protocol, always verify:

Reagent names
Volumes
Concentrations
Units
Incubation times
Temperatures
Centrifuge speeds
Equipment settings
Safety steps
Waste disposal procedures
Institutional SOP requirements

SynQBench may miss, misread, or incorrectly simplify protocol details.

Do not use SynQBench outputs without checking them against the original protocol and your approved laboratory procedures.

No scientific, medical, or safety advice

SynQBench does not provide medical, clinical, regulatory, biosafety, or professional scientific advice.

Any information generated by SynQBench is for workflow organisation only.

You must follow your institution's approved procedures, safety rules, ethics approvals, training requirements, and applicable laws.

User content

You are responsible for any content you upload, paste, save, edit, or share through SynQBench.

You must not upload content that:

You do not have permission to use
Contains patient-identifiable information
Contains confidential or restricted information you are not authorised to upload
Violates institutional rules, legal requirements, or third-party rights
Is harmful, illegal, or abusive

Protocol sharing

SynQBench may allow users to create read-only links or editable copies.

You are responsible for making sure you only share protocols with people who are authorised to view or use them.

Read-only links should not allow editing. Editable copies may allow another user to create their own editable version.

Calculators

SynQBench calculators are provided for convenience.

You must independently verify all calculator results before use, especially where errors could affect experiments, samples, safety, cost, or data quality.

Account security

You are responsible for keeping your account login details secure.

Beta service

SynQBench may currently be offered as a beta service.

During beta:

Features may change
Some functions may be incomplete
Bugs may occur
Outputs may need manual review
Data structures or workflows may change as the platform improves

Availability

We aim to keep SynQBench available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access.

The service may be unavailable because of maintenance, updates, errors, hosting issues, or technical problems.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SynQBench is not responsible for losses, damages, failed experiments, data loss, incorrect protocol use, incorrect calculations, safety incidents, or other consequences resulting from reliance on SynQBench outputs without independent verification.

You use SynQBench at your own risk.

Changes to the service

We may update, remove, or change features as SynQBench develops.
