Last updated: 08 April 2021
Overview of this Agreement
This Deklum Cyber Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legal agreement between Deklum Cyber Limited (“Deklum Cyber”, “us”, or “we”) and the entity or person (“Customer”, “you”, “your”, or “user”) who registered on the Deklum Cyber Account page to receive certain data preserving, technology and other business services that may be offered by Deklum Cyber and its affiliates (each, a “Service”). This Agreement describes the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Services. If you do not understand any of the terms of this Agreement, please contact us before using the Services. Before using the Services, you must register with Deklum Cyber and create an account (an “Deklum Cyber Account”).
By accessing or using the Services and Deklum Cyber websites, you acknowledge and agree that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Agreement and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, please do not access or use the Services and Deklum Cyber websites.
We have the right to change or add to the terms of this Agreement at any time, solely with prospective effect, and to change, delete, discontinue, or impose conditions on use of the Services by posting such changes on our website or any other website we maintain or own. We will provide you with notice of any changes through the website, via email, or through other reasonable means. If you are an existing Deklum Cyber user, the changes will come into effect on the date we specify in the notice, and your use of the Services after a change has taken effect, constitutes your acceptance of the terms of the modified Agreement. You can access a copy of the current terms of this Agreement on our website at any time. You can find out when this Agreement was last changed by checking the “Last updated” date at the top of the Agreement.
Registering and using your Deklum Cyber account
Registration and unauthorised account use
To access the Services, you must register for an Deklum Cyber account by creating a username, password and providing other information. You agree to provide us with accurate, complete, and current registration information about yourself. It is your responsibility to ensure that your password remains confidential and secure. By registering, you agree that you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your username and password. We may assume that any communications we receive under your account have been made by you. If you are a billing owner, an administrator, or if you have confirmed in writing that you have the authority to make decisions on behalf of a customer (“Account Administrator”), you represent and warrant that you are authorised to make decisions on behalf of the customer and agree that Deklum Cyber is entitled to rely on your instructions.
You are responsible for notifying us at support@deklumcyber.com if you become aware of any unauthorised use of or access to your account. You understand and agree that we may require you to provide information that may be used to confirm your identity and help ensure the security of your account. Deklum Cyber will not be liable for any loss, damages, liability, expenses or legal fees that you may incur as a result of someone else using your password or account, either with or without your knowledge and/or authorisation, and regardless of whether you have or have not advised us of such unauthorised use. You will be liable for losses, damages, liability, expenses and legal fees incurred by Deklum Cyber or a third party due to someone else using your account. In the event that the Account Administrator or customer loses access to an account or otherwise requests information about an account, Deklum Cyber reserves the right to request from the Account Administrator or customer any verification it deems necessary before restoring access to or providing information about such account in its sole discretion.
Representative
You or the person or people submitting the application (“Representative”) individually affirm to Deklum Cyber that your Representative is authorised to provide the relevant information described in the account details on your behalf and to bind you to this Agreement. We may require you or your Representative to provide additional information or documentation demonstrating your Representative’s authority. Without the express written consent of Deklum Cyber, neither you nor your Representative may register or attempt to register for an Deklum Cyber Account on behalf of a user Deklum Cyber previously terminated from use of the Services.
The following special requirements apply in relation to persons that are not at least 18 years old. If you are an individual or sole proprietor, and you are not at least 18 years old, but you are 13 years old or older, your Representative must be your parent or legal guardian. If you are a legal entity that is owned, directly or indirectly, by an individual who is not at least 18 years old, but the individual is 13 years old or older, your Representative must either obtain the consent of your board or of an authorised officer. Any such approving board, authorised officer, parent, or legal guardian is responsible to Deklum Cyber and is legally bound to this Agreement as if it had agreed to the terms of this Agreement itself. You may not use the Services if you are under 13 years of age.
Validation and Underwriting
At any time during the term of this Agreement and your use of the Services, we may require additional information from you to verify beneficial ownership or control of the business, validate information you provided, verify you or your Representative’s identity, and assess the risk associated with your business. This additional information may include business invoices, copies of government-issued identification, business licences, or other information related to your business, its beneficial owners or principals. Your failure to provide this information or material may result in suspension or termination of your Deklum Cyber Account.
You authorise us to retrieve information about you from our service providers and other third parties, including credit reporting agencies and information bureaus and you authorise and direct such third parties to compile and provide such information to us. You acknowledge that this may include your name, addresses, credit history, and other data about you or your Representative. You acknowledge that we may use your information to verify any other information you provide to us, and that any information we collect may affect our assessment of your overall risk to our business. You acknowledge that in some cases, such information may lead to suspension or termination of your Deklum Cyber Account. Deklum Cyber may periodically update this information as part of our underwriting criteria and risk analysis procedures.
Disclosures and notices; electronic signature consent
By registering for an Deklum Cyber Account, you agree that such registration constitutes your electronic signature, and you consent to electronic provision of all disclosures and notices from Deklum Cyber, including those required by law. You also agree that your electronic consent will have the same legal effect as a physical signature. You agree that Deklum Cyber can provide notices regarding the Services to you through our website or platform, or by mailing notices to the email or physical addresses identified in your Deklum Cyber Account. Notices may include notifications about your Deklum Cyber Account, changes to the Services, or other information we are required to provide to you. You also agree that electronic delivery of a notice has the same legal effect as if we provided you with a physical copy. We will consider a notice to have been received by you within 24 hours of the time a notice is either posted to our website or emailed to you.
You authorise us to provide notices to you via text message to allow us to verify your or your Representative’s control over your Deklum Cyber Account (such as through two-step verification), and to provide you with other critical information about your Deklum Cyber Account. In the event of a suspected or actual fraud or security threat to your Deklum Cyber Account, Deklum Cyber will use SMS, email or another secure procedure to contact you. Standard text or data charges may apply to such notices. Due to the nature of the Services, you will not be able to begin using the Services without agreeing to electronic delivery of notices. However, you may choose to withdraw your consent to receive notices electronically by terminating your Deklum Cyber Account.
Suspicion of unauthorised or illegal use
We may refuse, condition, or suspend any use or transactions that we believe: (i) may violate this Agreement or other agreements you may have with Deklum Cyber; (ii) are unauthorised, fraudulent or illegal; or (iii) expose you, Deklum Cyber, or others to risks unacceptable to Deklum Cyber. If we suspect or know that you are using or have used the Services for unauthorised, fraudulent, or illegal purposes, we may share any information related to such activity with the appropriate financial institution, regulatory authority, or law enforcement agency consistent with our legal obligations. This information may include information about you, your Deklum Cyber Account, your customers, and transactions made through your use of the Services.
Services and Deklum Cyber account support
We will provide you with support to resolve general issues relating to your Deklum Cyber Account and your use of the Services. This support includes resources and documentation that we make available to you through the current versions of Deklum Cyber’s support pages, API documentation, and other pages on our website (collectively, “Documentation”). The most efficient way to get answers to your questions is to review our Documentation. If you still have questions after reviewing the Documentation, please contact us at: support@deklumcyber.com
Data Usage, Privacy, and Security
Data Usage Overview
Protecting, securing, and maintaining the information processed and handled through the Services is one of our top priorities, and it should be yours too. This section describes our respective obligations when handling and storing information connected with the Services. The following terms used in this section relate to data provided to Deklum Cyber by you or your customers, or received or accessed by you through your use of the Services:
Personal Data” means information that identifies a specific living person (not a company, legal entity, or machine) and is transmitted to or accessible through the Services.
“Deklum Cyber Data” means details of the API transactions over Deklum Cyber infrastructure, information used in fraud detection and analysis, aggregated or anonymised information generated from Data, and any other information created by or originating from Deklum Cyber or the Services.
“User Data” means information that describes your business and its operations, your products or services, and orders placed by customers.
The term “Data” used without a modifier means all Personal Data, User Data, Payment Data, and Deklum Cyber Data.
Deklum Cyber processes, analyses, and manages Data to: (a) provide Services to you, other Deklum Cyber users, and customers; (b) mitigate fraud, financial loss, or other harm to users, customers and Deklum Cyber; and (c) analyse, develop and improve our products, systems, and tools. Deklum Cyber provides Data to third-party service providers and their respective affiliates, as well as to Deklum Cyber’s affiliates, to allow us to provide Services to you and other users. We do not provide Personal Data to unaffiliated parties for marketing their products to you. You understand and consent to Deklum Cyber’s use of Data for the purposes and in a manner consistent with this section.
Data Protection and Privacy
Deklum Cyber will only use User Data as permitted by this Agreement, by other agreements between you and us, or as otherwise directed or authorised by you. You will protect all Data you receive through the Services, and you may not disclose or distribute any such Data , and you will only use such Data in conjunction with the Services and as permitted by this Agreement or by other agreements between you and us. Neither party may use any Personal Data to market to customers unless it has received the express consent from a specific customer to do so.
Protection of Personal Data is extremely important to us. Our Privacy Policy explains how and for what purposes we collect, use, retain, disclose, and safeguard the Personal Data you provide to us. We shall, in providing the Services, comply with its Privacy Policy relating to the privacy and security of Personal Data. You agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy, which we may update from time to time. You affirm that you are now and will continue to be compliant with all applicable laws governing the privacy, protection, and your use of Data that you provide to us or access through your use of the Services. You also affirm that you have obtained all necessary rights and consents under applicable laws to disclose to Deklum Cyber – or allow Deklum Cyber to collect, use, retain, and disclose – any Personal Data that you provide to us or authorise us to collect, including Data that we may collect directly from customers using cookies or other similar means.
Deklum Cyber will provide some or all of the Services from systems located within the United States or other countries outside of Ireland. As such, it is your obligation to disclose to your customers that Personal Data may be transferred, processed, and stored outside of Ireland and, as set forth in our Privacy Policy, may be subject to disclosure as required by applicable laws, and to obtain from your customers all necessary consents under applicable laws in relation to the foregoing. If we become aware of an unauthorised acquisition, disclosure, or loss of Personal Data on our systems, we will notify you consistent with our obligations under applicable law. We will also notify you and provide you sufficient information regarding the unauthorised acquisition, disclosure, or loss to help you mitigate any negative impact on your customer.
You are the data controller, and we are the data processor in relation to Personal Data processed on your behalf under this Agreement, except that we will be a data controller in relation to Personal Data where we determine the purposes and manner in which the Personal Data is processed. We will, to the extent that we are a data processor, process Personal Data in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and lawful instructions reasonably given by you to us from time to time, and we will employ appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect such Personal Data. We will not be liable for any claim brought by a data subject arising from any action or omission by us, to the extent that such action or omission resulted from your instructions.
Deklum Cyber’s Security Controls
Deklum Cyber is responsible for protecting the security of Data in our possession. We will maintain commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical procedures to protect User Data and Personal Data stored in our servers from unauthorised access, accidental loss, modification, or breach, and we will comply with applicable laws when we handle User and Personal Data. However, no security system is impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorised parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or misuse any Data in our possession. You provide User Data and Personal Data to Deklum Cyber with the understanding that any security measures we provide may not be appropriate or adequate for your business, and you agree to implement Security Controls (as defined below) and any additional controls that meet your specific requirements. In our sole discretion, we may take any action, including suspension of your Deklum Cyber Account, to maintain the integrity and security of the Services or Data, or to prevent harm to you, us, customers, or others. You waive any right to make a claim against us for losses you incur that may result from such actions. You are solely responsible for the security of any Data on your website, your servers, in your possession, or that you are otherwise authorised to access or handle. You will comply with applicable laws when handling or maintaining User Data and Personal Data and will provide evidence of your compliance to us upon our request. If you do not provide evidence of such compliance to our satisfaction, we may suspend your Deklum Cyber Account or terminate this Agreement.
You are responsible for assessing the security requirements of your business and selecting and implementing security procedures and controls (“Security Controls”) appropriate to mitigate your exposure to security incidents. We may provide Security Controls as part of the Services or suggest that you implement specific Security Controls. However, your responsibility for securing your business is not diminished by any Security Controls that we provide or suggest, and if you believe that the Security Controls, we provide are insufficient, then you must separately implement additional controls that meet your requirements.
Fees and taxes
Deklum Cyber will provide the Services to you at the rates and for the fees (“Fees”) described on the Pricing page, linked here, and incorporated into this Agreement. We may revise the Fees at any time. However, we will provide you with at least 30 days’ advance notice before revisions become applicable to you (or a longer period of notice if this is required by applicable Law).
You are also obligated to pay all taxes, fees and other charges imposed by any governmental authority, including any value added tax, goods and services tax, sales tax and applicable indirect and transactional taxes (“Taxes”) on the Services provided under this Agreement. Our fees are exclusive of any applicable Taxes, except as expressly stated to the contrary. You have sole responsibility and liability for: (i) determining what, if any, Taxes apply to the sale of your products and services, acceptance of donations, or payments you receive in connection with your use of the Services; and (ii) assessing, collecting, reporting, and remitting Taxes for your business to the appropriate tax and revenue authorities. If we are required to withhold any Taxes, or we are unable to validate any tax-related identification information you provide to us, we may deduct such Taxes from amounts otherwise owed and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority. If you are exempt from payment of such Taxes, you must provide us with an original certificate that satisfies applicable legal requirements attesting to your tax-exempt status. Upon our reasonable request, you must provide us with information regarding your tax affairs. We may send documents to you and tax authorities for transactions processed using the Services. Specifically, pursuant to applicable law, we may be required to file periodic informational return with taxing authorities in relation to your use of the Services. We also may, but are not obliged to, electronically send you tax-related information.

We may terminate this Agreement or close your Deklum Cyber Account at any time for any reason by providing you advance notice (the period of notice as required by applicable law).
