1. AGREEMENT TO TERMS

These Terms and Conditions form a binding legal agreement between you (whether acting on your own behalf or on behalf of an entity) (“you”) and Realize Security Ltd. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), concerning your access to and use of the https://www.realizesec.com website, along with any related media channels, mobile websites, or mobile applications connected or linked to it (collectively, the “Site”). We are registered in the United Kingdom, with our registered office at C/O Sedulo 605 Albert House, 256-260 Old Street, London EC1V 9DD.

By visiting or using the Site, you acknowledge that you have reviewed, understand, and agree to comply with all of these Terms and Conditions. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ANY PART OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SITE AND SHOULD STOP USING IT IMMEDIATELY.

Additional documents or rules may occasionally be added to the Site and are incorporated into these Terms and Conditions by reference. We maintain the right to make updates or modifications to these Terms and Conditions at our sole discretion. Any such changes will be indicated by updating the “Last updated” date at the top of this page, and by continuing to use the Site following such updates, you accept the modified Terms and Conditions. It is your responsibility to check the relevant Terms whenever you use our Site to stay informed about which Terms apply.

The materials on the Site are not intended for use in jurisdictions where such use or distribution would breach laws or regulations or subject us to registration requirements in those jurisdictions. If you choose to access the Site from outside the United Kingdom, you do so at your own risk and are solely responsible for adherence to local laws, where applicable.

The Site is not designed to meet requirements for industry-specific rules (e.g., HIPAA, FISMA). Therefore, if your usage is subject to such regulations, you may not use our Site. You are likewise forbidden from using the Site in a way that would violate the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

Only individuals aged 18 or older are permitted to use or register on the Site. Anyone under 18 is not permitted to access or register for the Site.

2. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

Unless otherwise noted, the Site and its entire content—including source code, databases, software, functionality, web design, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics (the “Content”), as well as all trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (collectively, the “Marks”)—belong to or are licensed by us. They are protected by copyright, trademark, and various other intellectual property laws and conventions within the United States and internationally. The Content and Marks are provided on an “AS IS” basis for your personal use and information. Unless explicitly stated in these Terms and Conditions, no part of the Site, Content, or Marks may be reproduced, copied, republished, transmitted, distributed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for commercial gain without our prior written consent.

If you are authorized to use the Site, you have a limited license to access and use the Site and to download or print a single copy of any portion of the Content that you have properly obtained, strictly for your personal, non-commercial use.

You alone remain responsible for your Contributions. You agree not to hold us accountable for any potential claims resulting from your Contributions.

We reserve the right to (1) edit, modify, or remove any Contributions; (2) reassign Contributions to more appropriate locations on the Site; and (3) pre-screen or delete any Contributions for any reason, all without obligation to notify you.

You acknowledge that all moral rights in such Submissions are waived by you and confirm that you hold the right to provide such Submissions.

Pursue legal action against any user who violates the law or these Terms and Conditions, including potentially notifying law enforcement;
At our discretion, refuse or limit access to, or disable any of your Contributions;

17. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and interpreted under the laws of the United Kingdom. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded. If you ordinarily reside in the EU and are a consumer, you also benefit from the mandatory legal protections of your country of residence. Both you and Realize Security Ltd. agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of __________, meaning you can assert consumer protection rights regarding these Terms either in the United Kingdom or in the EU country where you live.

18. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Informal Negotiations
To encourage a cost-effective resolution of any dispute or claim (“Dispute”) related to these Terms and Conditions, you and we agree to attempt informal negotiations for at least 30 days before starting arbitration (except where otherwise specified below). These informal negotiations begin once one party notifies the other in writing.

Binding Arbitration
Any controversy arising from the relationship between the parties shall be settled by a single arbitrator, chosen according to the Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration, part of the European Centre of Arbitration in Strasbourg, in force at the time the arbitration request is made. The seat of arbitration is London, United Kingdom, the proceedings will be in English, and the applicable substantive law is that of the United Kingdom.

Restrictions
Arbitration is limited to the Dispute between you and us. To the maximum extent permitted by law, (a) arbitration shall not be combined with another proceeding; (b) class actions are not permitted; and (c) you may not bring a claim in a representative capacity on behalf of anyone else.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The following Disputes are exempt from the above processes: (a) any Dispute aimed at enforcing or safeguarding a party’s intellectual property rights; (b) any Dispute linked to allegations of theft, piracy, privacy invasion, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If any segment of this clause is found illegal or unenforceable, then that segment is severed, and the Dispute shall be resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction specified above, and both parties consent to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
