Terms for the website

These terms govern your use of veren-technology.com and everything published on it. The provider is Veren Technology Ltd; full details are in the imprint.

The journal, the case studies, the worksheets and the descriptions of how we work are published so you can judge whether we are worth talking to. They describe situations we have been in and positions we hold.

They are not legal, regulatory, medical, financial or engineering advice for your situation, and they are written without knowledge of it. Do not treat a checklist here as a substitute for your own regulatory assessment — particularly in a regulated setting, where the responsibility stays with you and your notified body or auditor.

Nothing on this site is an offer capable of acceptance. Sending the contact form starts a conversation; it does not conclude a contract and puts you under no obligation.

We write carefully and correct errors when we find them or when you tell us about one. We do not warrant that everything published is complete, current or free of error, and older articles describe the state of things when they were written.

We give no availability guarantee for this website. There is no uptime commitment here — those belong in a contract, where they can be measured and enforced.

The text, code, design, layout, photography, diagrams and the Veren Technology name and marks on this site are protected. Copyright in them belongs to Veren Technology Ltd or to the people credited, unless stated otherwise.

Client names, logos, screenshots and product images appear with the permission of the client concerned and remain the property of their owners. Their appearance here is not a licence for you to use them.

You may read this site, print pages for your own use, link to any page, and quote short passages with attribution and a link. Republishing a piece in full, presenting our material as your own, or using it in a commercial offering needs our written permission — ask at legal@veren-technology.com and expect a straightforward answer.

We reserve the right of text and data mining in the content of this website, within the meaning of Article 4 (3) of Directive (EU) 2019/790 and § 44b (3) UrhG. Reproducing content from this site to develop, train, fine-tune or evaluate a machine learning or generative AI system is not permitted without our written consent.

This reservation is made expressly and in machine-readable form by its publication at this address, and it applies whichever technical means is used to read the site.

Scientific research under Article 3 of that Directive is unaffected. Ordinary crawling by search engines is welcome. Bulk collection that degrades the service for other readers is not.

Where we link to another site, we reviewed it at the time of linking and saw no infringement. We have no control over what it contains afterwards, and its content remains the responsibility of its own provider. Tell us about a link that has gone bad and we will remove it.

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, for anything we have expressly guaranteed, and wherever mandatory law imposes liability regardless.

For simple negligence we are liable only where we breach a duty whose fulfilment makes the proper use of this site possible in the first place and on whose observance you may reasonably rely, and then only for the foreseeable damage typical of this kind of use.

Any further liability is excluded. This section limits our liability for the website. It does not limit liability under an engagement contract, which has its own liability regime.

We may change these terms as the site changes. The version in force is the one published here, carrying the effective date at the top of the page. Continuing to use the site after a change means the new version applies to that use.
