1. About Sparkle

These Terms govern use of the public Website only. Access to Sparkle’s software platform, proofs of concept, pilots, professional services, or paid services may be governed by separate agreements between Sparkle and the applicable customer.

• Copy, modify, reproduce, distribute, sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit Website content except as expressly permitted; or

Sparkle may restrict or block access where we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated or where access presents a security or operational risk.

5. Information You Submit

You may provide information through demo-request forms, contact forms, email, meetings, surveys, or other communications.

You represent that:

• The information you provide is accurate;

• You have the right to provide it;

• Providing it does not violate confidentiality, privacy, intellectual-property, or other obligations; and

• It does not contain malicious code or unlawful material.

Do not submit source code, credentials, secrets, regulated information, sensitive personal data, production data, or confidential customer information through the public Website unless Sparkle has expressly authorized the submission through an appropriate secure channel.

Information submitted through the Website will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

6. Feedback

You may choose to provide suggestions, ideas, comments, or other feedback regarding Sparkle or the Website.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, you grant Sparkle a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use, reproduce, modify, incorporate, and otherwise use that feedback for any lawful purpose without restriction or compensation.

This does not give Sparkle ownership of your confidential information or customer content governed by a separate agreement.

7. Intellectual Property

The Website and its content—including text, software, graphics, designs, interfaces, logos, trademarks, videos, documentation, and other materials—are owned by Sparkle or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws.

Subject to these Terms, Sparkle grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to access and use the Website for legitimate informational and business-evaluation purposes.

No other rights are granted by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.

“Sparkle,” associated logos, product names, and branding are trademarks or service marks of Sparkle.

Third-party names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.

8. Product Descriptions and Website Content

We aim to keep Website information accurate and current. However:

• Product descriptions may be simplified;

• Screenshots and demonstrations may use illustrative or synthetic data;

• Beta or planned functionality may change;

• Integrations and capabilities may depend on configuration, deployment, licensing, or third-party services; and

• Performance, security, cost, productivity, or risk-reduction outcomes may vary by customer and environment.

Nothing on the Website constitutes a guarantee that a particular feature, integration, outcome, certification, or release date will be available.

Any binding commitments regarding Sparkle’s services must be stated in a separately executed written agreement.

9. No Security or Professional Advice

Website content is provided for general informational purposes.

It does not constitute legal, regulatory, compliance, cybersecurity, risk-management, or other professional advice. You remain responsible for evaluating your organization’s requirements, risks, architecture, controls, and compliance obligations.

Use of Sparkle does not guarantee that software, systems, or organizations will be free from vulnerabilities, incidents, compliance failures, or other risks.

10. Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may contain links to, integrations with, or content from third-party websites and services.

Sparkle does not control and is not responsible for third-party services, including their:

• Availability;

• Terms and conditions.

Your use of third-party services is governed by the applicable third party’s terms and policies.

We do not guarantee that the Website will always be:

We may update Website content and functionality without notice.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Website and all Website content are provided “as is” and “as available.”

Sparkle disclaims all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of:

• Merchantability;

• Fitness for a particular purpose;

• Title;

• Non-infringement;

• Accuracy;

• Availability; and

• Security.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some exclusions may not apply to you.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Sparkle and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for any:

• Indirect;

• Incidental;

• Special;

• Consequential;

• Exemplary; or

• Punitive damages;

or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, business opportunity, or business interruption arising from or relating to your use of or inability to use the Website.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Sparkle’s total aggregate liability arising from or relating to the Website or these Terms will not exceed US$100.

These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory and even if Sparkle has been advised that damages are possible.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded.

14. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sparkle and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and representatives from claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and reasonable expenses arising from:

• Your unlawful use of the Website;

• Content or information you submit in violation of another party’s rights.

15. Privacy

Our collection and use of personal information in connection with the Website are described in the Sparkle Privacy Policy.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms periodically.

When we make changes, we will publish the updated Terms and revise the Effective Date. Changes take effect when published unless a later date is stated.

Your continued use of the Website after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

17. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

To the extent permitted by law, disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the Website will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Delaware.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent or equitable relief in an appropriate jurisdiction.

18. General Terms

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

Sparkle’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later.

You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written approval. Sparkle may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Sparkle regarding use of the public Website.
