Terms of Use

1. Agreement to these terms

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and [PLACEHOLDER: ByteCues legal entity name] (“ByteCues”, “we”, “us”) governing your access to and use of bytecues.com and any pages, features, forms and content made available through it (the “Site”). By accessing or using the Site you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

If you use the Site on behalf of an organisation, you confirm that you have authority to bind it, and “you” includes that organisation.

2. Changes to the Terms and to the Site

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows the current version. For significant changes we will give notice on the Site. Your continued use after an update means you accept the updated Terms. We may also change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without liability, although we will try to give notice where practical.

3. Who may use the Site

The Site is intended for businesses and professionals and for individuals aged 18 or over who can form a binding contract under the law that applies to them. You may not use the Site if you are barred from doing so by applicable law, including trade and sanctions laws (see section 18).

4. About the Site and our platforms

ByteCues is a technology company that builds the DashCues, RecruitCues and WealthCues platforms. The Site is an informational website about ByteCues and those platforms. It describes products, capability areas and plans, and some of them may be in development, in limited release or not yet generally available. Descriptions on the Site are not a commitment to deliver any particular feature, timeline, price or availability.

Using or signing up to a platform happens on that platform’s own website and is subject to the terms and privacy notice shown there, not these Terms. If there is a conflict between these Terms and a platform’s terms about that platform, the platform’s terms prevail for the platform.

5. Your right to use the Site

Subject to these Terms, we give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and view the Site and its content for your own lawful business or personal, non-commercial purposes. You may print or download a reasonable number of copies of pages (for example our policies or press materials) for your own use or to refer to us, provided you keep copyright and other notices intact and do not alter the content.

Press and media users may quote short extracts and use our name and logos to accurately refer to ByteCues and our platforms in editorial coverage, without suggesting endorsement.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to, and not to help anyone else to:

• use the Site in breach of any law, regulation or third-party right;
• copy, scrape, harvest, crawl or mine the Site or its content by automated means, or build a database or service from it, except for ordinary search-engine indexing that respects our robots.txt, or with our written permission;
• use the Site or any content from it to train, fine-tune or benchmark machine-learning or AI models without our written permission;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, our servers, networks, databases, accounts or data, or interfere with or disrupt them (including through denial-of-service attacks, excessive automated requests, malware or the circumvention of rate limits or bot protection);
• submit forms with false, misleading or another person’s details, or with spam, advertising, malicious code, or content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, discriminatory or infringing;
• impersonate any person or organisation, misrepresent your affiliation, forge headers or disguise the origin of any request;
• frame, mirror or deep-link in a way that suggests we endorse you or conceals the Site’s ownership; or
• reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any part of the Site except to the extent the law allows despite this restriction.

We may investigate and take action against violations, including blocking access, removing content, and reporting to the authorities.

7. Security research

Section 6 does not prevent good-faith security research carried out in line with the rules and safe harbour in our Security page. If you find a vulnerability, please report it there instead of exploiting it or disclosing it publicly before we have had a chance to fix it.

8. Intellectual property and trademarks

The Site and everything on it — including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, illustrations, product visuals, design, layout, source code and the selection and arrangement of content — is owned by or licensed to ByteCues and protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited licence in section 5, no right or licence is granted, expressly or by implication.

“ByteCues”, “DashCues”, “RecruitCues”, “WealthCues” and associated logos are trademarks or trade names of ByteCues or its affiliates (whether or not registered in your jurisdiction). You may not use them without our prior written permission, except for accurate, non-misleading references as described in section 5. All other names and marks belong to their owners.

9. What you send us

You are responsible for what you submit through the Site and confirm that you have the right to submit it and that it is accurate. We will handle personal information as described in our Privacy Policy.

Enquiries, suggestions and feedback you send (“Feedback”) are not confidential unless we agree otherwise in writing. You grant ByteCues a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use Feedback to operate, improve and promote our business and products without obligation to you, but we will not publicly name you as the source without your permission. Please do not send us confidential or proprietary information, trade secrets, or unsolicited ideas through the Site unless we have first agreed to receive it under a written non-disclosure agreement; ideas sent outside a documented relationship may be used by us freely, subject to the rights you hold in your own copyrighted material.

10. No professional advice

Content on the Site is general information about ByteCues and its platforms. It is not, and should not be relied on as, legal, financial, investment, tax, accounting, employment or other professional advice, and it does not create an adviser–client or fiduciary relationship. In particular, information about WealthCues or any financial or wealth-management capability is not an offer, recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell or hold any financial product, and ByteCues is not, through this Site, providing investment advice. Talk to a suitably qualified professional before making decisions. Any AI-generated or automated content in or about our platforms may be inaccurate and should be verified before you act on it.

11. Investor information and forward-looking statements

Information in the investor-related sections of the Site is provided for general information only. It is not an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, and it is not investment advice. Any offer will be made only through definitive documents to persons permitted to receive them under applicable law.

The Site may include statements about our plans, strategy, products, markets and expectations that are “forward-looking”. They are based on current assumptions, are inherently uncertain, and involve risks that could cause actual results to differ materially, including product-development and market risks, regulatory change, competition, funding, and our ability to attract and retain talent. We undertake no obligation to update them except as required by law. Do not place undue reliance on them. Where the Site does not state a figure — such as revenue, customers, funding or valuation — it is because we have not published one.

12. Third-party links, services and content

The Site links to websites and services we do not own or control, including our platform websites and third-party providers. We provide links for convenience only; a link is not an endorsement, and we are not responsible for third-party content, availability, security or privacy practices. Your dealings with third parties are between you and them. If you believe content on the Site infringes your rights, see section 17.

13. Availability and accuracy

We work to keep the Site available and accurate, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure or free of harmful components, or that content is complete, current or suitable for your purposes. We may carry out maintenance, and the Site may be unavailable for reasons outside our control.

14. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY AND QUIET ENJOYMENT. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM US OR THROUGH THE SITE CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.

15. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BYTECUES AND ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, DATA OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SITE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (US$100) (OR ITS EQUIVALENT).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law — including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any rights you have as a consumer under mandatory local law. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you.

16. Indemnity

If you use the Site for business purposes, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless ByteCues and its affiliates and personnel from any third-party claim, loss, liability, damages and reasonable legal fees arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, or content you submit that infringes the rights of another. We will notify you promptly of a claim and allow you reasonable control of its defence, although we may take part with our own counsel at our cost. This section does not apply to consumers where the law does not allow it.

17. Reporting infringing or unlawful content

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright or other rights, or is otherwise unlawful, notify us in writing at our contact form (please mention “Legal”) with: (a) your name and contact details; (b) a description of the work or right claimed to be infringed; (c) the exact address (URL) of the material on the Site; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is unauthorised; (e) a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, if you are not the rights holder, that you are authorised to act for them; and (f) your signature (typed is acceptable). We will review notices promptly and may remove content and notify the person who provided it. We may terminate access for repeat infringers.

18. Export controls and sanctions

You must comply with all applicable export-control, trade and economic-sanctions laws. You may not use the Site if you are located in, or ordinarily resident in, a country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions, or are on a restricted-party list.

19. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or restrict your access to the Site at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, pose a security risk, or to comply with law. You may stop using the Site at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 20 and 21 — will survive.

20. Governing law and disputes

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or the Site (including non-contractual disputes) are governed by [PLACEHOLDER: governing law], without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before starting formal proceedings, each party agrees to try in good faith to resolve the dispute by contacting the other and negotiating for at least 30 days. Subject to that, the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of [PLACEHOLDER: courts with jurisdiction], except that either party may seek urgent injunctive relief in any competent court. If you are a consumer, you also keep any right to bring proceedings in the courts of the place you live and to rely on the mandatory consumer-protection laws of that place. Any claim you bring must be started within one year after the cause of action arose, where the law allows such a limit.

21. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms, with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Site and replace earlier understandings about it.
• Severability. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect and the unenforceable part will be limited to the minimum extent needed.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our written consent; we may assign ours in connection with a reorganisation, merger or sale of business.
• Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
• No third-party rights. Except for our affiliates and personnel as stated above, no other person has rights to enforce these Terms.
• Electronic communications. You agree that we may communicate with you electronically, including by email and by notices on the Site, and that this satisfies any legal requirement that communications be in writing.
• Interpretation. Headings are for convenience only. “Including” means “including without limitation”. These Terms are written in English; any translation is for convenience.
