1. Beta Eligibility

• This is a non-public beta test. Beta access will be reviewed and granted by Hypershell based on testing needs. Submitting an application does not guarantee that you will receive beta access.
• Beta access may only be used by the approved applicant. If the applicant is a company, media organization, institution, or other organization, access may only be used by personnel specifically approved by us.
• Without our prior approval, you must not transfer, sell, or share your beta eligibility or provide any beta account, password, testing link, invitation code, or other access credential to another person.
• We may adjust the testing period, scope, number of participants, or testing content based on testing progress. We may also suspend or end the test early or revoke beta access.

2. Beta Information Must Be Kept Confidential

Any non-public information that you access during the application process or beta test is confidential, including:

• Beta pages, features, workflows, and outputs;
• Screenshots, screen recordings, images, videos, and testing materials;
• Beta accounts, links, invitation codes, instructions, and communications;
• Unreleased product plans, features, launch schedules, and business information;
• Bugs, vulnerabilities, abnormal behavior, test results, and user experience;
• The fact that the beta test is taking place, that you have received beta access, or that the parties are discussing possible cooperation.

Without our prior written approval, you must not:

• Disclose, display, forward, or provide beta information to another person;
• Take screenshots, screen recordings, photographs, videos, copies, or downloads of beta content, except where expressly permitted for testing purposes;
