Acceptance & Agreement Scope
By accessing, registering for, or using any Cybelle service — including our website, intelligence platform, Threat IQ simulation environment, or consultancy services — you ("User", "you", or "your") agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you are accessing our services on behalf of an organisation, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and [Cybelle Legal Entity Name] ("Cybelle") with respect to your use of our services. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue access to our services.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material modifications will be communicated with a minimum of 30 days' notice. Continued use of our services after the effective date of a modification constitutes acceptance.
These Terms constitute a binding legal agreement. Enterprise clients engaged under a separate Master Services Agreement (MSA) should refer to that agreement for provisions that supersede or supplement these Terms.

Intelligence reports and research materials accessed through the Cybelle Intelligence Hub are licensed for internal, non-commercial use only. Reproduction, redistribution, or republication of such materials — in whole or in part — without prior written authorisation from Cybelle is expressly prohibited.

You agree not to use Cybelle's services for any purpose that is unlawful, harmful, or expressly prohibited by these Terms. The following activities are strictly prohibited:
Technical Prohibitions
- Reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, or otherwise attempting to extract source code from any Cybelle software or platform
- Automated scraping, crawling, or extraction of content from our platform without prior written consent
- Conducting security probing, penetration testing, or vulnerability scanning of Cybelle's infrastructure without explicit written authorisation

Enterprise Services & Subscriptions
Cybelle's professional services — including cybersecurity consultancy, cloud architecture, software engineering, AI governance, and digital transformation engagements — are delivered under separately negotiated service agreements that supplement these Terms.
Platform Access
Access to the Cybelle Intelligence Hub and Threat IQ simulation platform may be offered under subscription or licence arrangements. Subscription terms, pricing, and renewal conditions are specified at the point of purchase or in your enterprise agreement.
Service Availability
Cybelle targets industry-standard platform availability for its digital services. While we invest in resilient infrastructure, we do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free operation. Planned maintenance windows will be communicated with reasonable advance notice. Emergency maintenance may be conducted without prior notice where security or integrity risks require immediate action.
Commercial Engagements
Enterprise engagements are governed by our standard commercial terms or a bespoke Master Services Agreement. Payment terms, deliverable specifications, and SLA commitments are defined within those instruments. In the event of conflict between an MSA and these Terms, the MSA prevails.
Disclaimers & Warranty Limits
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CYBELLE'S SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.
Cybelle specifically disclaims:
- Any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement
- Any warranty that our services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
- Any warranty regarding the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of intelligence content, threat assessments, or analytical outputs
- Any warranty that defects in our services will be corrected within any specific timeframe
Intelligence reports and threat assessments published through the Cybelle platform represent our analysis at a point in time based on available information. The threat landscape changes rapidly; enterprise security decisions should not be made solely on the basis of our published content without independent validation by qualified security professionals.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CYBELLE, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND LICENSORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR:
- Any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages
- Loss of profits, revenue, data, business opportunity, or goodwill
- The cost of procuring substitute services
- Any damages arising from unauthorised access to or alteration of your data or transmissions
IN ANY EVENT, CYBELLE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR OUR SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE FEES PAID BY YOU TO CYBELLE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED POUNDS STERLING (£100).
Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for certain types of damages. In such jurisdictions, Cybelle's liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Cybelle and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, judgements, awards, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to:
- Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law or regulation
- Your use or misuse of Cybelle's services, including the Threat IQ simulation environment
- Your infringement of any third-party intellectual property, privacy, or other rights
- Any misrepresentation made by you in connection with your registration or use of our services
- Any content or data you submit, transmit, or make available through our platform
Cybelle reserves the right to assume exclusive control of the defence of any matter subject to indemnification by you, at your expense. You agree to cooperate fully with Cybelle in asserting any available defences.
Termination & Offboarding
Termination by You
You may terminate your account or cease using our services at any time. For platform subscriptions, please refer to the cancellation terms specified in your subscription agreement. Enterprise engagements are subject to the notice and exit provisions in the applicable service agreement.
Termination by Cybelle
Cybelle may suspend or terminate your access to our services immediately and without prior notice where:
- You have breached these Terms or our Acceptable Use Policy
- We are required to do so by law or a regulatory authority
- Your account has been compromised or poses a security risk to our platform or other users
- Your conduct exposes Cybelle to legal liability or reputational risk
For terminations not related to breach or misconduct, Cybelle will provide 30 days' written notice.
Post-Termination
Upon termination, your right to access and use Cybelle's services ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature survive termination — including intellectual property rights, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification — shall remain in full force.
Personal data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data retention obligations.
