Website Terms

Operator and scope

These Website Terms apply to haltseal.com (the "Website"), operated by HALTSEAL Inc., a Delaware corporation ("HALTSEAL," "we," or "us").

Please read these terms before using the Website. They describe the conditions for accessing the Website and using its public materials. If you do not agree to these conditions, please do not use the Website.

These Website Terms address public website access and materials. Software and other downloadable components remain subject to the licenses supplied with them; these Website Terms do not narrow permissions expressly granted by those licenses.

Evaluation workspace

The free evaluation workspace, when enabled, keeps saved synthetic sandbox results, SDK installation guidance, workflow outlines and pilot progress. You must control the email address you use to sign in and keep your session secure. Submit only information you are authorized to provide. Do not upload payment credentials, live account details or confidential customer records.

Saved synthetic results do not establish production protection or qualify a provider path. The workspace does not issue production API keys, submit real payments or automatically buy services. Optional scope inquiries take no payment. The standard pilot can be purchased through the separate online checkout when enabled, under its accepted order terms. Progress records describe the recorded request and operator updates, not a guarantee of acceptance or completion.

You may export or delete evaluation data in Settings. Evaluation records expire after 180 days without account activity; authentication, submitted inquiry, commercial, log and backup records are separate as described in the Privacy Notice. We may restrict access to protect the service, address abuse or comply with applicable obligations.

Paid engagements

Paid services with HALTSEAL Inc. require an accepted written agreement, which may be the disclosed standard online pilot order or a separately signed proposal. The agreement identifies the contracting parties, scope, deliverables, fees, timing, customer participation, and applicable access, confidentiality, and data handling terms.

The agreement may be an acknowledged online order, signed proposal or service agreement, with a statement of work and any additional terms it expressly incorporates. The agreement governs the services it covers and any order of precedence among its documents. These Website Terms do not amend an existing customer agreement.

Document review and technical testing have separate scopes. Additional work, testing, or deployment requires the applicable written agreement and authorization. An inquiry, demo booking, or AI-guide conversation does not accept a proposal, create a paid engagement, or authorize access to your systems.

The integration pilot is a fixed-scope nonproduction evaluation. Its quoted duration starts after both parties accept readiness. The standard purchase terms state deliverables, exclusions, payment timing and refunds for the online pilot before payment. Custom engagements use a separately accepted proposal. No production deployment, native-provider qualification or availability commitment is purchased through a pilot request.

Public information, demonstration, and assessment results

The Website explains HALTSEAL and the Cross-Path Payment Assessment and provides materials for business and technical review. The public demonstration uses synthetic information, runs in the browser, and does not initiate payments. The separate SDK sandbox uses fixed synthetic HTTP fixtures and a short-lived session. Its injected observations do not verify signed customer sources or native-provider evidence; no real payment instruction is accepted. Downloaded clients and fixture software retain their supplied licenses.

Published technical results apply only to the versions, environments, assumptions, and conditions identified with those results. The technical evidence described on the Evidence page is local and synthetic. It does not establish a result for a customer's system or a live payment provider.

An assessment report applies to its identified workflow, routes, evidence, versions, and test conditions. Its conclusions should be read with its tested coverage, exclusions, assumptions, and inconclusive findings. They do not certify untested systems or guarantee outcomes after the assessed environment changes.

Public materials do not authorize a real payment, approve a production deployment, or provide a general certification of security or regulatory compliance. Any customer deployment requires its separately agreed scope, authorization, and operating arrangements.

Permitted use and intellectual property

You may view the Website, follow its public links, and save or share reasonable copies of its public materials for internal business, procurement, legal, security, and technical review. Please preserve attribution and relevant notices and do not present altered excerpts as original HALTSEAL statements. Uses otherwise permitted by law remain available.

Materials, software, trademarks, and other intellectual property belong to their respective rights holders. The Website operator does not necessarily own every patent, trademark, or component discussed on the Website. Except for the permissions above and any applicable separate license, these Website Terms grant no patent, trademark, or other intellectual property license.

Responsible use

Do not use the Website unlawfully; misrepresent your identity or affiliation; interfere with its availability; introduce malicious code; evade access controls; or access another person's information without authority. Automated access must respect access controls and must not disrupt the Website.

Security research within the scope and conditions of the Responsible Disclosure Policy is permitted under that policy. That policy describes the authorized scope and reporting process. It does not authorize testing customer systems or services operated by third parties.

Inquiries and privacy

Business inquiries are welcome. Sending an inquiry does not by itself create a service contract or confidentiality agreement. Keep the first message to the business issue you want to discuss, and arrange any confidential exchange and appropriate transfer channel with us first. You retain your rights in information you submit; sending an inquiry does not give us ownership of it.

Hana provides AI-generated guidance for public product questions and can make mistakes. Its replies do not approve a scope, fee, customer commitment, or payment. Confirm commercial and customer-specific matters with us in writing.

The Privacy Notice describes the personal information handled through the Website and direct inquiries. These terms do not replace that notice or any rights under applicable privacy law.

Availability and responsibility

We may correct, update, remove, or restrict Website content or access, including to protect the Website or respond to misuse. Public Website access does not carry a service-level commitment. Separate customer agreements govern any customer-specific availability or support obligations.

To the extent permitted by law, the Website and public materials are provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free access, complete information, or suitability for a particular use. This does not override any express commitment in a separate agreement or a warranty that applicable law does not allow us to exclude.

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from use of the Website or its public materials. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any liability or statutory remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. These Website Terms do not change the allocation of responsibility in a separate customer agreement.

External links are provided for reference. We do not control external sites, their availability, or their terms.

Law, changes, and contact

These Website Terms are governed by the laws of Delaware, United States, excluding conflict-of-laws rules. This does not deprive you of mandatory protections or rights to bring a claim available under the law that applies to you. These terms do not require arbitration or waive class, jury-trial, or other nonwaivable rights. A separate customer agreement determines the law applicable to the services it covers.

We post changes with an updated date, effective date, and version. Changes apply prospectively from publication or the stated effective date, whichever is later, subject to any notice or agreement required by law. Updating the Website operator does not itself assign, replace, or amend a customer agreement. If a provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to the extent permitted by law.
