Terms of Service

Last Updated: 8 July 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the RAD (Rapid Application Deployment) platform, our websites, and related services (together, the "Services") provided by Tech Equity ("we," "our," or "us"). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" refers to that organization.

1. The Services

RAD is a cloud-agnostic web application that simplifies the deployment and management of enterprise-grade cloud platforms. RAD deploys infrastructure using pre-built blueprints into cloud environments on Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and on-premise environments (via VMware and OpenStack). Depending on your subscription, deployments may run in cloud accounts or projects that you own and control, or in environments provisioned and managed by us on your behalf.

2. Third-Party Cloud Provider Terms

The Services are built on, and in some cases resell, third-party cloud infrastructure. Your use of the Services is therefore additionally subject to the terms of the underlying cloud provider:

• Google Cloud. Where the Services are delivered on, or resold through, Google Cloud, we pass through to you — and your use of the Services is subject to — the Google Cloud Platform Terms of Service, including the documents incorporated into those terms (such as the Service Specific Terms and Acceptable Use Policy). These are incorporated into these Terms by reference. Where these Terms conflict with the Google Cloud terms in respect of the Google Cloud services themselves, the Google Cloud terms control.
• Customer-managed environments. Where RAD deploys into a cloud account or subscription that you hold directly with a provider (for example your own AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud account, or your own VMware/OpenStack environment), your agreement with that provider governs your use of that provider's services. You are responsible for maintaining that agreement and for all fees the provider charges to your account.

We do not control, and are not responsible for, changes the cloud providers make to their services or terms. We will pass through provider terms as they are updated by the provider.

3. Accounts and Registration

To use the RAD platform you must create an account with accurate, complete information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at admin@techequity.cloud if you suspect unauthorized use of your account.

4. Subscriptions, Fees and Payment

The Services are offered under the subscription tiers described on our pricing page. Subscription fees are billed in advance for each billing period and are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated otherwise. We may change our fees with notice effective from your next billing period.

Cloud infrastructure consumption charges are separate from RAD subscription fees. Where infrastructure runs in your own cloud account, the provider bills you directly. Where we resell cloud services to you, infrastructure charges are invoiced by us on the applicable provider's pass-through pricing terms.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to:

• use the Services in violation of applicable law, these Terms, or the applicable cloud provider's acceptable use policy;
• attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services, other customers' environments, or the systems of our cloud providers;
• use the Services to distribute malware, conduct denial-of-service attacks, send unsolicited communications, or infringe the rights of others;
• resell, sublicense, or provide the Services to third parties except as expressly permitted by your subscription;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Services, except to the extent permitted by law.

6. Your Content and Data

You retain all rights to the data, configurations, and content you submit to or deploy through the Services ("Customer Content"). You grant us the limited rights needed to operate the Services on your behalf, including deploying Customer Content to the cloud environments you designate. You are responsible for ensuring you have the necessary rights to the Customer Content and that its use with the Services complies with applicable law. Our collection and use of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.

7. Intellectual Property

We and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, including the RAD platform, blueprints, software, and documentation. No rights are granted to you other than as expressly set out in these Terms. Open-source components included in or deployed by the Services (such as OpenTofu) are licensed under their respective open-source licenses.

8. Service Availability and Support

We work to keep the Services available and performant, but the Services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis unless a separate written agreement with us states otherwise. Scheduled maintenance, provider outages, and factors outside our reasonable control may affect availability. Support terms, where applicable, are described in your subscription tier.

9. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that deployment-time or cost-saving figures presented on our website — which are projections based on our ROI model assumptions — will be achieved in your environment.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law: (a) neither party will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunity; and (b) our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms will not exceed the amounts you paid to us for the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

11. Termination

You may cancel your subscription at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services for material breach of these Terms (including non-payment or violation of the acceptable use provisions) if the breach is not cured within a reasonable period after notice, or immediately where required to protect the Services, other customers, or our cloud providers. Upon termination, your right to use the Services ceases; provisions that by their nature should survive (including Sections 6, 7, 9, 10, and 12) survive termination. Infrastructure deployed into your own cloud accounts remains yours and is unaffected by termination of your RAD subscription, though you become responsible for managing it directly.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms, except where applicable law provides otherwise.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated Terms on this page and revise the "Last Updated" date above. For material changes, we will provide notice by email or through the Services before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
