This Agreement was last modified on 7 June 2022.

Please read these terms of Use (“Agreement”, “Terms of Use”) carefully before using Controlant's websites, including but not limited to Controlant.com, Controlant.io, and any related websites, (“the Site”) operated by Controlant hf. and its affiliated companies (“us”, “we” or “our”). This Agreement outlines the terms and conditions that apply to and govern your (“you”, “user”) use of our Site and our Services (“the Service”), the latter applying to the extent that the following terms do not conflict with the provisions of other Agreements or provisions between you and Controlant.

Disclaimers

The information on this website has been prepared solely for the purpose of providing information about Controlant, its affiliated companies and Services. The content of the site is provided 'as is', without express or implied, statutory, or otherwise, warranties of any kind, such as completeness, accuracy, merchantability, security, and fitness for a particular use and noninfringement. Visitors who rely on this information do so at their own risk. By accessing the website, you agree that Controlant or any of its suppliers or contractors will not be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or other type of damages, including without limitation damages for cover or loss of use, data, revenue or profits, arising out of or in any way connected with the use or performance of the Site, with the delay or inability to use the Site, or for any content, or otherwise arising out of the use of our website, its material, or any information, statements and comments contained within, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, the failure of any limited remedy to achieve its essential purpose, or otherwise, regardless of whether such damages are foreseeable, even if Controlant has been informed of the possibility of damages. Additionally, Controlant doesn't warrant the completeness, reliability, completeness, correctness, usefulness or accuracy of the information, data, text, graphics, or other items contained within these materials. These limitations of liability only apply to the extent permitted by law. As some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you. The Site may contain links or content originating on third-party sites that are neither owned nor controlled by us. Controlant does not assume any obligations or responsibility for the content, reliability, and availability of linked content. We strongly advise you to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of any third-party site that you visit.

Third-Party Services


In order to provide you with a rich set of features, we may utilize third-party service providers. You agree that we can exchange information with our third-party services providers, under our Privacy Policy and Cookies and Tracking Notice as necessary to implement such features.

Prohibited Use

Intellectual Property, Trademarks, and Copyright


You, the user, acknowledge that you do not acquire any ownership or rights by utilizing the Site or Service. The site and content featured on it is subject to copyright protection unless otherwise indicated. This protection of copyright does not extend to any material on the Site which is identified as the property of a third party. All content (including without limitation any pictures, logos, images, text, and podcasts) appearing on the Service is our property or the property of our licensors or suppliers and is protected by copyright law, in Iceland and other countries. You agree not to use, display, reproduce, retransmit, modify, distribute, disseminate, sell, publish, create derivative works of, broadcast, circulate, display or in any way exploit any such content (including any copyrighted material, trademarks, or other proprietary information), in whole or in part, whether by e-mail or by any other means. Unless otherwise indicated, all names, graphics, designs, logos, page headers, button icons, scripts, commercial markings, trade dress, and service names included on the Service are our trademarks or trademarks of our licensors, or sponsors (collectively, the “Trademarks”) and are protected by trademark law, in Iceland and other countries. The Trademarks may not be used in any manner that is likely to cause confusion to, or in any manner that disparages or discredits us. Trademarks protect Controlant as well as our community of customers, partners, and vendors. They identify the source of one provider's products from another. By "products" we mean all types of offerings, ranging from commercial products and services to open source and free software and informational websites. Trademark law protects the public's ability to rely on trademarks for information about product source and quality, requiring trademark owners to take steps to police proper use of their marks. Controlant has registered trademarks or has otherwise sought protection as indicated below in Iceland, the U.S., and other countries. We have done this to protect and preserve the marks for our community of customers and partners for the benefit of everyone involved with Controlant. By this we mean that people should be able to recognize when a product is from Controlant. You may use the Controlant trademarks below in any news article, blog, or on your website without our written consent, as long as you use them according to this guideline and retain the ® symbol or ™ symbol as applicable on the right shoulder of the mark. If you have any questions about the use of Controlant trademarks, please contact us at legal@controlant.com. The Controlant logo is a distinctive graphic rendition. You may use the Controlant logo in a blog or news article, publication, book or other online or offline medium, or on your website without our written consent, provided that the logo is duplicated exactly as shown in the preceding link, and the ® symbol (or the ™ symbol, as applicable) attached to the shoulder of the logo as in the attached link is retained. All other usages of the Controlant logo require the written approval of Controlant. In addition to trademarks and service marks, Controlant has developed artwork, screenshots, and imagery for our website and other web properties. Controlant's "look" or "feel" should not be reproduced or mimicked for the same reasons cited above: customers can be confused about whether they're dealing with Controlant or another company. The Controlant website and all intellectual property rights, including all Copyright rights therein, are owned by Controlant. Reproduction or "creative borrowing" of the website or artwork without permission is a violation of Controlant's Copyright. Controlant product documentation has been released under the Danish Creative Commons Attribution License and retains the permissions and rights granted under Creative Commons.

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to, at your expense, indemnify, defend, and hold Controlant, our subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, share- and stakeholders harmless, from any and all third-party claims, actions, suits, and proceedings. This applies to liabilities, losses, damages, settlements, penalties, fines, costs or expenses, including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and other litigation expenses incurred by Controlant or any of the aforementioned parties due to, relating to or arising out of your use or misuse of the Site or Service, any violations or breaches of this Agreement, any violation of laws, rules or regulations in connection with the Controlant Service and Site or of the rights of third-parties, any representations and warranties made by you concerning any aspect of the Service, any claims made by or on behalf of any Third Party pertaining directly or indirectly to your use of the Service, violations of your obligations of privacy to any Third Party and any claims with respect to acts or omissions of any Third Party in connection with the Service. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defense.

Governing Law

Unless otherwise stated, This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Iceland. You hereby submit to exclusive jurisdiction in the Icelandic Courts. You agree to receive service of process through e-mail, certified mail or by other means sanctioned by law, and you expressly waive any claim of improper venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient forum. Please note that your use of the Service may be subject to other local, state, national, and international laws.

General Provisions

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. You agree that this Agreement may be automatically assigned by us, in our sole discretion, to a third party. Section headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between us with respect to the subject matter hereof. The provisions of this Agreement will survive termination or expiration to the extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties. No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and our failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Privacy

We are committed to safeguarding your privacy. The terms regulating the handling of personal information and other information about you are described in our Privacy Policy. By using the Service, you consent to the processing described therein.

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms of Use.
