Terms of Service

1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms

Welcome to the website of Flat World Communication LLC (“FWC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of FWC’s corporate website, online resources, digital content, and related publicly accessible online services (collectively, the “Services”).

By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge these Terms and agree to comply with them to the extent that a legally enforceable agreement is established under applicable law.

If you do not agree with these Terms, please discontinue use of the Services.

Certain services, business relationships, advertising arrangements, publishing activities, or other commercial transactions may be subject to separate written agreements.

In the event of a conflict between these Terms and a separate written agreement executed by FWC, the separate agreement shall govern the applicable relationship to the extent of the conflict.

These Terms do not supersede, amend, or diminish rights and obligations expressly established under separate binding agreements.

2. About Flat World Communication LLC

FWC operates in publishing, advertising, marketing, communications, business development, and related professional activities.

Our corporate website provides information about our company, business capabilities, publications, projects, professional services, and related activities.

Information presented on our website is intended for general informational and business purposes unless expressly stated otherwise.

Nothing contained on the website constitutes an offer to enter into a contractual relationship unless expressly identified as such.

3. Permitted Use

You may access and use our Services for lawful personal, informational, and professional purposes.

You agree not to:

• Use the Services in violation of applicable laws or regulations.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems, accounts, networks, or information.
• Interfere with the security, integrity, availability, or operation of our Services.
• Introduce malicious software, harmful code, or other technologies intended to disrupt or compromise the Services.
• Use automated tools, scraping technologies, or similar methods to extract substantial amounts of content without authorization, except where permitted by applicable law.
• Misrepresent your identity, professional qualifications, or affiliation with FWC.
• Use our Services to infringe the intellectual property, privacy, confidentiality, or other legal rights of FWC or third parties.
• Circumvent security controls, access restrictions, or other technical safeguards implemented by FWC.

FWC reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or terminate access to its Services when reasonably necessary to protect its systems, users, intellectual property, confidential information, or legitimate business interests.

Such measures shall be implemented subject to applicable law and any binding contractual obligations.

4. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise indicated, the content available through FWC’s Services, including text, graphics, designs, logos, photographs, illustrations, videos, publications, editorial materials, advertising content, and other materials, is owned by FWC, its affiliates, licensors, or the respective rights holders.

Such materials may be protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other applicable intellectual property laws.

Access to our Services does not grant ownership of, or any license to, intellectual property except as expressly authorized.

You may view and use publicly available content for legitimate informational purposes, subject to applicable law and any additional restrictions associated with the content.

Reproduction, redistribution, commercial exploitation, modification, or unauthorized publication of protected materials requires prior authorization from the relevant rights holder unless otherwise permitted by law.

All trademarks, trade names, service marks, and logos remain the property of their respective owners.

Third-Party Advertising and Editorial Materials

Intellectual property rights in advertising materials, editorial submissions, photographs, trademarks, creative works, manuscripts, designs, and other content supplied by advertisers, clients, contributors, or third parties shall remain with their respective rights holders, except to the extent otherwise established by a separate written agreement.

The submission, publication, display, or distribution of such materials through FWC’s Services shall not, by itself, constitute a transfer of intellectual property ownership.

Any licenses, permissions, publication rights, reproduction rights, distribution rights, or other intellectual property arrangements relating to advertising placements, editorial contributions, publications, or commercial publishing activities shall be governed by the applicable written agreements.

Nothing in these Terms grants users the right to reproduce, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit third-party materials displayed through FWC’s Services without appropriate authorization.

FWC reserves all intellectual property rights not expressly granted.

5. Information and Content Accuracy

FWC makes reasonable efforts to ensure that information presented through its Services is accurate and current.

However, website content, publication information, service descriptions, project information, and other materials may be updated, modified, or discontinued without prior notice.

FWC does not guarantee that all information will be complete, accurate, current, or continuously available.

Content provided through our Services is intended for general informational purposes and should not be considered legal, financial, technical, or other professional advice unless expressly provided under a separate professional engagement.

Users should independently verify information before relying upon it for significant commercial, financial, legal, or operational decisions.

Nothing in this section limits any representation, warranty, or obligation expressly established under a separate binding agreement.

6. Business Communications and Confidential Information

FWC maintains established procedures for professional communications and the handling of confidential business information.

Routine inquiries and general business correspondence may be conducted through conventional communication channels.

Confidential, proprietary, commercially sensitive, or otherwise restricted business information must be transmitted through FWC’s designated secure communication systems or other channels expressly authorized by FWC for that purpose.

Users, clients, advertisers, contributors, and business partners should not submit confidential information through public website forms, general-purpose email addresses, or other communication channels unless FWC has expressly authorized the channel for that purpose.

FWC may provide appropriate secure communication instructions when confidential information must be exchanged.

Unsolicited Confidential Information

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the submission of confidential, proprietary, or commercially sensitive information through unauthorized communication channels shall not, by itself, establish a confidential, fiduciary, or other special relationship between the submitting party and FWC.

Nothing in this provision shall diminish confidentiality obligations arising under applicable law, an existing contractual relationship, or a separate written confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement.

FWC may direct the submitting party to an approved secure communication channel when appropriate.

Existing Confidentiality Obligations

Confidentiality obligations established under separate written agreements remain applicable and shall take precedence over these Terms to the extent of any conflict.

Nothing in these Terms authorizes the disclosure, use, or distribution of information protected by applicable privacy laws, confidentiality agreements, trade secret laws, or other legally enforceable obligations.

7. Third-Party Services and Integrations

FWC may utilize authorized third-party technology providers, cloud infrastructure, productivity platforms, communications systems, hosting services, information-processing services, and software integrations to support its business operations.

Where applicable, access to third-party platforms and associated information shall be subject to the relevant authorization requirements, contractual arrangements, provider policies, and applicable laws.

FWC processes information obtained through authorized integrations in accordance with its Privacy Policy, applicable data protection obligations, relevant permissions, and applicable service-provider requirements.

Third-party platforms may establish independent terms of service, privacy policies, technical requirements, and access restrictions.

FWC is not responsible for the independent operation, availability, or policies of third-party services outside its reasonable control.

Nothing in this section excludes or limits responsibilities that FWC may have under applicable law or binding contractual arrangements concerning the selection, use, or management of third-party service providers.

8. Internal Business Systems

FWC maintains internal digital systems to support authorized administrative, operational, editorial, communications, publishing, advertising, and business activities.

These systems are intended exclusively for approved personnel and other individuals expressly authorized by FWC.

Access to internal systems does not confer unrestricted access to company information, confidential records, intellectual property, or operational capabilities.

Authorized users must comply with applicable security requirements, confidentiality obligations, organizational policies, and access restrictions.

FWC may monitor, restrict, suspend, or revoke access to internal systems when reasonably necessary for security, compliance, or operational purposes, subject to applicable law.

Unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, extraction, distribution, or use of internal business information is prohibited.

Additional Internal Policies

Access to FWC’s internal business systems may be subject to additional security policies, acceptable-use requirements, confidentiality agreements, employment obligations, contractor agreements, or other applicable written arrangements.

In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the specific requirements governing an internal system, the applicable system-specific or contractual requirements shall govern to the extent permitted by law.

Nothing in these Terms grants public website visitors any right to access FWC’s internal business systems.

9. Privacy and Data Protection

Your use of FWC’s Services is also subject to our Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy explains how FWC collects, uses, processes, shares, retains, and protects personal information.

FWC processes personal information obtained through its Services and authorized third-party integrations in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection requirements.

Where required by applicable law, FWC will provide appropriate notices and obtain any necessary consent or other lawful authorization for the collection or processing of personal information.

FWC may utilize service providers to support website operations, communications, analytics, security, and other legitimate business activities, as further described in its Privacy Policy.

Users should consult the Privacy Policy published on FWC’s corporate website for additional information concerning personal information practices and applicable privacy rights.

Nothing in these Terms limits privacy or data protection rights that cannot lawfully be waived or restricted.

10. Third-Party Links

Our Services may contain links to websites, platforms, publications, or resources operated by third parties.

These links are provided for convenience or informational purposes.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, their inclusion does not constitute an endorsement, partnership, sponsorship, or guarantee by FWC.

FWC does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability, security, or privacy practices of independently operated third-party websites.

Users access such resources at their own discretion and should review the applicable terms and privacy policies of those third parties.

Nothing in this section excludes responsibilities imposed upon FWC by applicable law.

11. Availability and Modifications

FWC endeavors to maintain the availability and functionality of its Services.

However, FWC does not guarantee uninterrupted access, continuous availability, or error-free operation.

Services may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues, security requirements, infrastructure failures, or circumstances beyond FWC’s reasonable control.

FWC reserves the right to modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any portion of its Services, subject to applicable law and any binding contractual obligations.

FWC may implement changes reasonably necessary to maintain security, operational integrity, regulatory compliance, or service functionality.

Nothing in this section modifies service availability commitments expressly established under separate written agreements.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FWC provides its publicly accessible website and related informational resources on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

FWC makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the uninterrupted availability, accuracy, completeness, reliability, security, or suitability of these resources for any particular purpose.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, FWC disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement with respect to its publicly accessible website and related informational resources.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, statutory protections, or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Separate written service agreements may provide additional warranties, representations, service commitments, or other obligations applicable to particular professional engagements.

Such separately agreed obligations shall remain enforceable in accordance with their terms and applicable law.

13. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FWC and its officers, employees, representatives, and authorized service providers shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, FWC’s publicly accessible website or related informational resources.

This exclusion includes, where legally permissible, damages relating to lost profits, lost business opportunities, business interruption, or loss of data arising from such use.

Aggregate Liability Limitation

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FWC’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the use of its publicly accessible website and related informational resources shall not exceed one hundred United States dollars (US$100).

This aggregate limitation applies to claims arising from the same or related circumstances, regardless of the legal theory asserted, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Exceptions and Contractual Obligations

The foregoing limitations shall not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, including liability arising from intentional misconduct or other circumstances in which such limitations are prohibited by applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms limits obligations expressly established under separate binding agreements, except as permitted by those agreements and applicable law.

Nothing in this section restricts any mandatory statutory rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be waived.

14. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless FWC, its officers, employees, and representatives against third-party claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal fees where recoverable, arising directly from:

• Your unlawful use of the Services.
• Your infringement of third-party intellectual property or other legally protected rights.
• Your unauthorized access to or misuse of FWC’s systems or information.
• Your material violation of these Terms.

This indemnification obligation applies only to the extent that the relevant claims, losses, liabilities, or expenses are attributable to your conduct.

It does not require you to indemnify FWC for losses attributable to FWC’s own unlawful conduct or other circumstances where indemnification is prohibited by applicable law.

Nothing in this section supersedes indemnification provisions established under separate binding agreements.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of FWC’s publicly accessible Services shall be brought exclusively before the state or federal courts of competent jurisdiction located in Miami-Dade County, Florida.

Each party consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts, subject to any mandatory jurisdictional rights or protections that cannot lawfully be waived.

Nothing in this section limits mandatory rights or protections that may apply under the laws of another jurisdiction.

Where a separate binding agreement establishes a different governing law, jurisdiction, or dispute-resolution procedure, that agreement shall govern the applicable contractual relationship to the extent of the conflict.

16. Changes to These Terms

FWC may revise these Terms periodically to reflect changes in its Services, business activities, legal requirements, technological infrastructure, or operational practices.

Updated Terms will be published on FWC’s website with a revised effective date.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, revisions to these Terms shall apply prospectively from the effective date specified in the updated version.

Continued use of the Services following publication of revised Terms constitutes acceptance only to the extent permitted by applicable law and where the requirements for legally effective notice and assent have been satisfied.

Where additional notice or consent is legally required, FWC will comply with those requirements.

Revisions to these Terms shall not retroactively modify rights or obligations established under separate binding agreements unless expressly agreed by the relevant parties or otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Users are encouraged to review these Terms periodically.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision shall be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, where permitted by applicable law.

If such interpretation or limitation is not legally permissible, the affected provision shall be severed.

The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any individual provision shall not automatically affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining Terms.
