Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms & B2B Scope

By accessing, browsing, or submitting an inquiry through verta-global.com and any of its subpages (collectively, the “Website”), you (“you” or “Visitor”), both individually and on behalf of the company, enterprise, or organisation you represent, agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”), together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must discontinue use of the Website immediately.

This Website is intended solely for business, commercial, and professional users evaluating enterprise technology services. By using the Website on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Website Terms.

2. About Verta Global

Verta Global (“Verta”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a technology services provider headquartered in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), delivering cloud solutions, cybersecurity and secure environment engineering, IT infrastructure and managed services, software development and DevOps automation, dedicated IT specialists, and technical operations internationally.

3. Informational Purpose & Relationship to Master Services Agreements (MSA / SOW)

• No Binding Offer: All descriptions of capabilities, architectures, methodologies, timelines, and engagement models published on this Website are provided for general informational purposes only and constitute an invitation to treat, not a binding contractual offer or service level commitment.
• Illustrative Scenarios (“Solutions in Action”): Scenarios presented on the Solutions in Action page and individual solution pages represent illustrative architectural blueprints demonstrating what Verta Global can engineer for common enterprise challenges; unless explicitly attributed with written client consent, they are not representations of specific historical client engagements.
• Precedence of Written Client Agreements: All commercial technology services, deliverables, service level agreements (SLAs), acceptance criteria, fees, intellectual property ownership of custom deliverables, and data processing obligations are governed solely by a mutually executed Master Services Agreement (“MSA”), Statement of Work (“SOW”), Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”), and Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”). In the event of any conflict between this Website and an executed MSA/SOW, the executed MSA/SOW shall prevail.

4. Scope of Cybersecurity, Cloud & Specialist Engagements

• Tailored Security Scope: Security architectures, cloud hardening configurations, Zero Trust-informed designs, access controls, and monitoring services described on this Website are tailored to each client’s specific infrastructure, risk profile, regulatory environment, and agreed SOW. Because cyber threats continuously evolve and operational security depends equally on client internal governance, credential hygiene, and third-party software vendors, nothing on this Website constitutes a guarantee or warranty that any system will be completely immune from all cyberattacks, vulnerabilities, or downtime.
• Dedicated Specialist Availability: References to Dedicated IT Specialists & Technology Teams are subject to specialist availability, technical scoping, compliance checks, and mutually executed engagement terms. Nothing on this Website creates an employment, agency, joint venture, or partnership relationship.
• No Legal or Regulatory Audit Advice: Technical assessments and security reviews provided by Verta Global are engineering services and do not constitute formal legal advice or statutory financial/regulatory certification unless expressly stated in an executed SOW.

5. Permitted Use & Acceptable Use Restrictions

You may view, download, and print pages from the Website solely for your organisation’s internal evaluation of Verta Global’s services. You agree not to:

1. Conduct unauthorised vulnerability scanning, port scanning, penetration testing, load testing, packet sniffing, or security probing against verta-global.com or its hosting infrastructure without prior written authorisation from Verta Global;
2. Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with TLS encryption, Content Security Policies, rate-limiting controls, Web Application Firewalls (WAF), or honeypot mechanisms;
3. Use automated bots, scrapers, spiders, or data-mining tools to harvest Website content, code, design assets, or contact addresses (except standard search engine indexing compliant with robots.txt);
4. Transmit any malware, trojans, worms, malicious payloads, spam, or deceptive/spoofed business inquiries through the Contact form;
5. Reproduce, mirror, frame, republish, or commercially exploit any portion of the Website or its brand identity as your own offering; or

No licence, title, or interest in any Verta Global intellectual property is granted to you by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, save for the limited, revocable, non-exclusive right to view the Website in accordance with Clause 5.

7. Pre-Contractual Inquiries & Confidentiality

While Verta Global handles Contact form inquiries securely in accordance with our Privacy Policy, initial Website form submissions are intended for high-level scoping only. Do not transmit secret cryptographic keys, production root passwords, regulated personal data sets, or proprietary source code via unauthenticated web forms. Prior to exchanging confidential technical specifications or architecture credentials during discovery, Verta Global will execute a formal mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with your organisation.

8. Third-Party Ecosystems & External Links

References on the Website to public, private, hybrid, or multi-cloud architectures, DevOps toolchains, or security standards are vendor-neutral descriptions of technical capabilities. Any third-party product names or standards remain the property of their respective owners. External links (if any) are provided for convenience only, and Verta Global assumes no responsibility for the content, availability, or privacy practices of external websites.
