Effective date: 14 November 2026
1. About these Terms
UnHideA / 不藏 (unhidea.com) provides research commentary, market briefs, selected interviews and online access to original research reports. The service is operated by UnHideA, referred to below as “we” and “us”. Contact us at help@unhidea.com.
These Terms explain the rights and responsibilities associated with using the website, registering an account and purchasing reading access. Please read these Terms and the relevant product description before registering or purchasing. Paid orders are also subject to the Refund Policy presented before purchase. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information. You must have the legal capacity to enter into the relevant contract.
2. What we provide
Research commentary, daily briefs and selected interviews are currently publicly accessible. Paid products provide account-based online access to original research reports through monthly memberships, annual memberships or individual report purchases.
During an active membership, you may use our on-site reader to access original reports that are archived and available on the website, including reports added during that period. An individual purchase unlocks only the specified report. Not every article includes an original PDF; check the original-report link and purchase description. We do not promise to include every report from any institution or to publish a fixed number of reports each day.
Available languages depend on the published versions of each article. A translated article does not mean that the original PDF has been translated. The member discussion group marked as “in preparation” has not opened and is not part of the benefits currently delivered.
3. Delivery, duration and renewal
After payment is verified, access is activated for the account signed in when the order was placed. “My membership” shows membership expiry, purchased reports and order records. Delivery is online. We do not ship physical goods or send PDF files by email as a standard part of the product.
A monthly membership lasts 30 days and an annual membership lasts 365 days. A first purchase, or a purchase after expiry, starts when payment is confirmed. If you already have a valid membership or redeemed reading period, the purchased days are added after that existing period. Check the expiry shown in your account and contact us if it appears incorrect.
Current memberships are one-time purchases with manual renewal. We do not automatically charge you at expiry. You can stop making further purchases by not renewing. This does not revoke your current valid access or itself constitute a refund request. Price changes apply to future orders; we do not retrospectively charge a price difference on completed orders.
An individual report purchase does not expire with your membership and has no separate fixed expiry date. You may continue to read it through the purchasing account while that report can lawfully remain available and the website continues operating. The purchase does not include ownership of the file, an offline copy or a guarantee of perpetual availability. Section 8 applies if we can no longer provide a purchased report.
4. Prices and payments
Before paying, check the product, account, amount, currency, payment network and any charges shown at checkout. The amount due is the amount displayed when you confirm the purchase. The website currently offers USDT payments. For orders using Plisio, its payment page supplies payment instructions and confirmation status. Plisio should not be understood to be the publisher or copyright licensor of the original reports.
Payment processing or blockchain confirmation can take time. If access has not activated after payment, check the order status and contact us with the order number and necessary payment evidence before paying again. Never send passwords, verification codes, wallet private keys or recovery phrases to support. Payments on the wrong network, insufficient amounts or payments outside the payment window require investigation; automatic matching or recovery of funds cannot be guaranteed. This does not exclude any refund or other remedy required by law.
The website does not currently offer Creem checkout. If we introduce another payment channel, we will disclose that channel, the contracting seller and applicable terms before payment. Existing orders remain associated with the channel actually used.
5. Accounts and personal use
Use an email address you are entitled to use and can receive notices at, and protect your login credentials. Reading access is for the individual associated with the purchasing account. Do not rent or resell accounts or give others access through your credentials, sessions or paid-content access routes. Contact help@unhidea.com if you discover unauthorised account use.
Do not bypass access controls, disrupt the website, extract paid original reports in bulk, or redistribute paid content to groups, shared libraries, other websites or applications. Team, institutional or commercial republication requires separate permission from the relevant rights holders. These paid-access restrictions do not prevent you from sharing links to public articles.
6. Content rights and permitted use
Rights in original research reports, their charts, institutional names and marks belong to the respective rights holders. Our commentary is distinct from the original report. Unless expressly stated otherwise, identifying a source institution does not signify a partnership, endorsement or authorisation from that institution.
Purchasing reading access does not transfer copyright or grant rights to reproduce, distribute, communicate publicly, commercially republish or resell original reports. The on-site reader is for online reading; this product does not grant permission to download or redistribute original PDFs. These Terms do not improperly restrict uses expressly permitted by law.
We permit use only to the extent we have the right to do so. Personal-use restrictions, source attribution and statements about informational purposes do not substitute for the rights needed to provide original reports.
If you believe content infringes your rights, send the content link, an explanation of your rights and information that allows us to assess the issue to help@unhidea.com. We will investigate and may restrict access, correct or remove content. Access may be restricted during that review where necessary.
7. Understanding research content
Content is provided for reading and research. It is not personalised advice based on your assets, investment objectives or tolerance for risk. Institutional views, forecasts, ratings and scenarios should be read with their sources, dates and assumptions. They are not guarantees of returns or instructions to execute trades.
Commentary, translation and data compilation may contain omissions or errors, and market information changes. You may contact us to request a correction. You should make decisions based on your own circumstances. This section does not remove our legal responsibilities for content, delivery or other matters.
8. Refunds, service changes and suspension
Refund eligibility, request procedures and handling arrangements are governed by the Refund Policy shown before purchase and applicable law. Activation or reading of digital content does not, by itself, remove your statutory rights. These Terms alone do not establish that you have waived a statutory withdrawal right or other remedy.
Maintenance, technical problems or rights reviews may temporarily interrupt access. We will take reasonable steps to restore service and explain material changes affecting purchased access. If we cannot continue providing the main service you paid for, we will offer remedies appropriate to the impact, such as restored access, a reasonable extension or a corresponding refund. We will communicate the proposed remedy and will not use a unilateral change to these Terms to erase an existing obligation.
If we have reasonable grounds to suspect fraud, sharing of paid access, infringement or a threat to website security, we may impose proportionate temporary restrictions. Except for urgent security action or legal restrictions, we will explain the reason and provide a contact and review route. Serious or continuing violations may lead to termination. Refund eligibility remains subject to the Refund Policy and applicable law, rather than an automatic no-refund rule.
9. Access codes and referral programmes
The period and conditions of an access code are those stated when it is issued or redeemed. Referral programmes operate under the eligible-order, attribution and settlement rules on the programme page. Participation is not required to buy reading access, and earnings are not guaranteed. Participation does not authorise resale of accounts or reports, or claims to act as our agent.
10. Responsibility and disputes
These Terms do not exclude or limit liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability or that content will suit every reader's purpose. Delivery or content issues will be handled under these Terms, the Refund Policy and applicable law.
For a dispute, please first explain the issue to help@unhidea.com so we can investigate and try to resolve it. This is not a condition that restricts your legal right to seek assistance from a regulator, court or other competent body. Applicable law and jurisdiction are determined under the relevant legal rules.
11. Updates and language versions
We will date updates on this page and provide appropriate notice of material changes affecting purchased access. New terms will not retrospectively reduce entitlements under completed orders. Where separate consent is required, we will obtain it before the change takes effect.
The Chinese and English versions are intended to have the same meaning. If they differ, we will clarify the wording in light of the information given at purchase and applicable law. Translation differences will not reduce statutory consumer rights.
12. Contact us
For accounts, orders, reading access, corrections or rights complaints, contact help@unhidea.com. Include the relevant page link and, for an order issue, the order number. We will request only information needed to handle the matter.
