Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and SEVERADAO SECURITY LLC, doing business as SeveraDAO Security (“SeveraDAO,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using severadao.ai and its pages (the “Website”), you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.

If you use the Website on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent that you have authority to act for that organization, and “you” includes that organization where applicable.

2. Website purpose

The Website provides general information about SeveraDAO, our background, and potential cybersecurity services. Website content is informational and is not legal advice, compliance advice, a security certification, a vulnerability assessment of your systems, or a guarantee that any system is secure.

3. Security services require a separate agreement

No penetration testing, scanning, exploitation, assessment, or other cybersecurity service is ordered or authorized merely by visiting the Website, sending an email, or submitting a form. Services begin only after the parties enter an applicable written agreement and approve scope, targets, authorization, timing, limitations, and Rules of Engagement.

A separate master services agreement, statement of work, proposal, authorization, nondisclosure agreement, data processing agreement, or similar signed document may govern a client engagement. If a signed agreement conflicts with these Terms, the signed agreement controls for the applicable services.

4. Permitted use

You may access and use the Website for lawful business information, evaluation of potential services, and communication with SeveraDAO. You may print or retain reasonable excerpts for your internal evaluation, provided you do not remove attribution or proprietary notices.

5. Prohibited conduct

You may not, directly or indirectly:

• use the Website for an unlawful, fraudulent, deceptive, abusive, or harmful purpose;
• attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website, server, accounts, systems, or data;
• scan, probe, exploit, disrupt, overload, or test the Website or related infrastructure without SeveraDAO’s prior written authorization;
• upload or transmit malware, malicious code, harmful content, or automated requests that unreasonably burden the Website;
• circumvent security controls, rate limits, access restrictions, or technical protections;
• submit false contact details, impersonate another person, or misrepresent your authority over a proposed testing target;
• scrape, copy, republish, frame, mirror, or create derivative works from substantial portions of the Website except as allowed by law;
• use Website content, branding, or materials to imply endorsement, affiliation, certification, or authorization that does not exist; or
• interfere with another person’s use of the Website.

Good-faith security reports should be sent using the contact information in our security.txt file.

6. Intellectual property

The Website and its original text, design, graphics, branding, logos, code, and other materials are owned by SeveraDAO or used with permission and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Except for the limited permission in Section 4, no right or license is granted without our prior written consent.

Third-party names, marks, publications, and services referenced on the Website belong to their respective owners. Reference does not imply affiliation or endorsement.

7. Inquiries and submitted information

You are responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of information you submit. You represent that you have the right to provide it and that doing so does not violate another person’s rights or confidentiality obligations.

Do not send credentials, private keys, production data, regulated records, exploit code, or detailed vulnerability information through the public form. Initial submission of information is handled as described in our Privacy Policy. Submission does not create a confidential, fiduciary, professional, or client relationship unless a separate written agreement says otherwise.

8. Third-party services and links

The Website may link to or use services operated by third parties, including FormSubmit, Cloudflare, LinkedIn, and independent publications. SeveraDAO does not control and is not responsible for third-party availability, content, security, terms, or privacy practices. Your use of those services is governed by their terms.

9. Availability and changes

We may modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any part of the Website at any time. We do not guarantee that the Website will always be available, uninterrupted, current, accurate, complete, or free from defects. Service descriptions and capabilities may change without notice; a signed proposal determines the actual scope offered to a client.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Website is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. SeveraDAO disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, and security.

No Website content guarantees that a particular assessment will identify every vulnerability, prevent every incident, satisfy every compliance requirement, or eliminate risk. Any warranties for paid services must appear in the applicable signed agreement.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SeveraDAO and its members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising from or related to use of or inability to use the Website.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SeveraDAO’s aggregate liability arising from the Website or these Terms will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US $100). This limitation does not apply where liability cannot lawfully be limited. Liability for paid services is governed by the applicable signed agreement.

12. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless SeveraDAO and its members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful misuse of the Website, violation of these Terms, or violation of another person’s rights.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to any mandatory law that applies to you, disputes concerning the Website or these Terms will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Florida, and you consent to that jurisdiction and venue.

14. Severability, waiver, and assignment

If a provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them in connection with a reorganization, financing, sale, or transfer of the business.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Revised Terms become effective when posted, and the date at the top will be updated. Continued use of the Website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by law.
