Welcome to TrustGate IT. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website at trustgateit.com and any services we provide. By using our website or engaging us for services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.

Plain English summary: Use the site reasonably. We give honest advice and stand by our work, but no consultancy can guarantee perfect security. If you hire us, the actual scope, fees, and deliverables of your project are set out in a separate signed engagement agreement — these Terms are about the website and the relationship in general.

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using the TrustGate IT website ("Website"), submitting a form, contacting us, or engaging us for services, you confirm that:

  • You are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
  • You are acting on your own behalf or are duly authorised to act on behalf of the entity you represent.
  • You agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

2. About our services

TrustGate IT provides Microsoft 365 security, Intune, and compliance consulting services to small and medium businesses. Our offerings include — without limitation — security health checks, zero-trust identity rollouts, Microsoft Intune deployments, data protection, compliance readiness, and licence optimisation.

The Website itself is informational. It is not an offer to contract; engaging us for services requires a separate, mutually signed agreement (the "Engagement Agreement") setting out scope, fees, deliverables, timelines, and any service-specific terms.

3. Service engagements

If you engage TrustGate IT for consulting work, the following applies:

  • Scope: The work to be performed will be set out in writing (proposal, statement of work, or engagement letter) and signed by both parties.
  • Fees: Quoted fees are valid for 30 days unless otherwise stated. Fixed-price engagements include only what is in scope; out-of-scope work is billed separately by mutual agreement.
  • Payment terms: Invoices are due within 14 days unless otherwise agreed. Overdue amounts may attract reasonable interest and suspension of services.
  • Cooperation: You agree to provide timely access, information, decisions, and approvals required for us to deliver the work. Delays caused by you may extend timelines and/or impact fees.
  • Acceptance: Deliverables are deemed accepted unless you provide written objections within 7 days of delivery, identifying specific issues and reasonable remedies.
  • Subcontracting: We may use qualified subcontractors but remain responsible for their work.

In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and a signed Engagement Agreement, the Engagement Agreement prevails.

4. Acceptable use

When using our Website, you agree not to:

  • Use the Website for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, our systems, or any data not intended for you.
  • Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to compromise the security or integrity of the Website (e.g. via denial-of-service attacks, malware, scraping, etc.).
  • Submit false information, impersonate another person, or misrepresent your affiliation.
  • Use any automated system (bots, scrapers, etc.) to harvest data from the Website without our written permission.
  • Reverse-engineer or copy any portion of the Website except as expressly permitted by law.

We reserve the right to deny service, restrict access, or pursue legal remedies in response to any breach.

5. Intellectual property

All content on the Website — including text, graphics, logos, images, page layouts, code, brand names, and the "TrustGate IT" name and marks — is the property of TrustGate IT or its licensors and is protected by Indian and international intellectual property laws.

You may view and download content for your personal, non-commercial use only. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or create derivative works from any content without our prior written permission.

Where we deliver consulting work, ownership of project deliverables is governed by the relevant Engagement Agreement. As a default, you receive a perpetual licence to use the deliverables for your internal business purposes, while we retain ownership of any underlying tools, methodologies, frameworks, and pre-existing know-how.

6. Confidentiality

Information shared between you and TrustGate IT in the context of an enquiry or engagement is treated as confidential. We do not share, sell, or use confidential information except as needed to deliver our services or as required by law. This obligation continues after the engagement ends.

You similarly agree to keep confidential any non-public methodologies, pricing, or working materials we share with you, except for deliverables we have authorised you to use.

7. Disclaimers

Important: Cybersecurity consulting reduces risk; it does not eliminate it. No consultancy — ours included — can guarantee that your environment will never be compromised. Threats evolve daily, and security requires ongoing investment, not a one-time fix.

The Website and any free content (blog posts, lead-magnet downloads, articles, frameworks) are provided "as is" for informational purposes only. They do not constitute legal, financial, regulatory, or tailored security advice for your specific environment.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties — express or implied — including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, and non-infringement, in respect of the Website and any free content.

For paid consulting engagements, we will perform our work with reasonable skill and care, in line with industry standards and the specific terms of your Engagement Agreement.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

  • TrustGate IT shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, revenue, data, business opportunities, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the Website or our services.
  • Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or related to a paid engagement shall not exceed the fees actually paid by you to us under that engagement in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
  • For free content or use of the Website, our total liability shall not exceed INR 1,000.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold TrustGate IT, its directors, employees, contractors, and agents harmless from any claim, loss, damage, liability, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of:

  • Your breach of these Terms or any applicable law;
  • Your misuse of the Website or our services;
  • Your provision of inaccurate or unauthorised information; or
  • Any third-party claim arising from your acts or omissions.

10. Third-party services and links

Our Website may include links to or integrations with third-party services (e.g. Microsoft 365, Formspree, Tawk.to, Google Analytics, WhatsApp). We are not responsible for the content, terms, or practices of any third-party service. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Website at any time, without notice, for conduct that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties. Termination of an Engagement Agreement is governed by the terms of that agreement.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including IP, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability, indemnification, and governing law — will continue to apply after termination.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to the dispute resolution clause below, the courts of Delhi, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any matter not resolved by arbitration.

13. Dispute resolution

If a dispute arises out of or in connection with these Terms, the parties will first attempt to resolve it through good-faith discussion within 30 days of written notice.

If unresolved, the dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The seat of arbitration shall be Delhi, India. The language of arbitration shall be English. The arbitration shall be conducted by a sole arbitrator mutually appointed by the parties.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance. For material changes affecting an active engagement, we will provide reasonable advance notice.
