Terms of Service

The rules for using this desk. See also the Privacy Policy.

Last updated: August 17, 2026

Agreeing to these terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of distributedrisk.com and the public desk published there (the "Service"). The Service is operated by Distributed Risk Corporation ("Distributed Risk," "we," "us"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

What this desk is, and is not

The public desk is decision support drawn from official public sources. It is not a legal determination of sanctions, travel, export-control, or cyber status. It is not legal, compliance, investment, or insurance advice. Readers own their compliance obligations and should consult their own counsel.

No offer, no client relationship

Publishing a note does not create a client, advisory, or attorney-client relationship. Nothing on the Service is an offer to sell services, a solicitation, or a guarantee of any outcome. Paid or private work, if any, is under a separate written agreement.

Accuracy and change

Official lists and advisories move. We may be late, incomplete, or wrong. A dated forecast on a note is a checkable claim, not a promise. We may correct, add, or withdraw notes. Entry numbers on published notes are not rewritten.

Your responsibilities

You agree not to misuse the Service, including unauthorized access, scraping at a volume that interferes with the site, or using the desk as if it were a screening system of record. You are responsible for how you use what you read.

Third-party sources

The desk cites official and other public sources. We do not control those sites. Their terms and availability apply to their files and pages.

No warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or complete.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Distributed Risk Corporation and its officers, directors, and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100).

Intellectual property

The Service, its design, and our marks are owned by Distributed Risk Corporation or its licensors. Official source documents remain the property of their publishers. You may not copy the Service as a product or present our notes as your own determination.

Changes

We may modify the Service or these Terms. Material changes take effect when we post the updated Terms with a new date. Continued use means you accept them.
