Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the COLZ platform, tools, training, templates, and related services (together, the “Service”), provided by Brandalese & Co. (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By creating an account, making a purchase, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

“COLZ” or the “Service” — the web-based tools, templates, memoranda, training, and related materials made available at colz.ai.

“Tool” — the interconnected SOX/ICFR tools provided within the Service.

“Academy” — the COLZ training video series and related educational content.

“Content” — the methodology, templates, memoranda, videos, and other materials we provide through the Service.

“Your Data” — information you upload, enter, or generate within the Service.

“Purchase” — a one-time purchase granting access to the Service as described at checkout.

You must be capable of forming a legally binding contract to use the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate account information, keep it current, and promptly notify us of any unauthorized use of your account.

Subject to these Terms and your applicable Purchase, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable licence to access and use the Service for your own internal business or professional purposes. Access is provided on a one-time-purchase basis as described at checkout. We may update, improve, or modify the Service, and may add or remove features, from time to time.

COLZ is offered as one-time purchases, which may include:

• COLZ (full access) — the Tool, the SOX Library, and the Academy.
• COLZ Academy — the Academy training only.

An Academy purchaser may later upgrade to full access for the difference stated at the time of upgrade.

Prices are displayed at checkout in US dollars and exclude applicable taxes, which are calculated and added at checkout. Payments are processed by our third-party payment processor; by making a Purchase, you agree to any applicable terms of that processor. You authorize us (and our processor) to charge the payment method you provide for the amounts shown at checkout.

COLZ products are sold as one-time purchases granting access to digital tools, content, and training. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may request a refund by emailing cristiano@colz.ai within seven (7) days of the purchase date. Refund requests are reviewed individually and granted at the sole discretion of Brandalese & Co. After seven (7) days from the purchase date, purchases are non-refundable. Where a refund is approved, access to the purchased Tool and the COLZ Academy will end upon issuance of the refund.

We may offer a free preview or demonstration of the Service. Any preview is provided for evaluation purposes, may be limited in functionality, and may be changed or withdrawn at any time. Access to the full Tool and the Academy requires a Purchase.

The Content is licensed for your own use and not for redistribution. You agree that you will not:

• copy, resell, redistribute, sublicense, publish, or otherwise make the Content available to third parties, except as expressly permitted;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code or underlying methodology of the Service, except to the extent permitted by law;
• use the Service to violate any applicable law or to infringe the rights of others;
• share, resell, or transfer account access in order to circumvent a required Purchase; or
• introduce malicious code, or attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the Service.

The Service and all Content — including the COLZ methodology, tools, templates, memoranda, and training — are owned by Brandalese & Co. or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property and other laws. Except for the limited licence expressly granted in these Terms, no right, title, or interest in the Service or Content is transferred to you. “COLZ” and associated names and logos are marks of Brandalese & Co. and may not be used without our prior written permission.

You retain ownership of Your Data. You grant us a limited licence to host, process, store, and display Your Data solely as necessary to provide and support the Service for you. You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of Your Data and represent that you have the rights necessary to submit it. We handle Your Data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

We record account activity, including the dates on which you sign in and access or use the tools, templates, and training, in order to operate and secure the Service and to provide support. For details on how we handle your information, please see our Privacy Policy.

When you provide your email address, we may send you information related to COLZ, including product updates and relevant guidance. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in each such email.

The Service relies on third-party providers, including for payment processing, hosting, email delivery, and video hosting. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, or terms of third-party services, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms and policies.

COLZ provides tools, templates, and educational content to support your own SOX/ICFR and internal-controls work. The Service does not constitute accounting, audit, legal, tax, or other professional advice, and is not a substitute for a qualified auditor, accountant, or professional adviser. You are solely responsible for your controls, your judgments and conclusions, and your compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and standards.

The Service and Content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any results obtained through the Service will be accurate or meet your requirements.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Brandalese & Co. will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, or data, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, the Service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service will not exceed the amount you paid for the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Brandalese & Co. and its owners and personnel from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or relating to Your Data, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or of applicable law.

These Terms apply for as long as you access or use the Service. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms or misuse the Service. Upon termination, the licence granted to you ends. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification — will survive.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Florida, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
