8. Intellectual property rights

8.1 Ownership. All Content on the Platform — including but not limited to the database structures, categorisation schemes, relationship maps, analyses, compilations, curated summaries, topic page layouts, newsletter content, graphics, software, and the Platform’s overall design and “look and feel” — is the exclusive property of Trust Agency or its licensors and is protected by copyright, the EU sui generis database right (Directive 96/9/EC), trademark law, and other applicable intellectual property laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Trust Agency grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform and Content solely for your internal business and professional information purposes during the term of your Account. No right, title, or interest in any Content is transferred to you.

8.3 Value-added content distinguished from source material. While the underlying ETSI standards and eIDAS regulations referenced on the Platform may be publicly available and subject to their own licensing terms, Trust Agency’s value-added content — the selection, arrangement, analysis, categorisation, relationship mapping, and curated presentation of such information — constitutes proprietary intellectual property of Trust Agency. This protection extends to the compilation as a whole and to any substantial part thereof.

8.4 Restrictions. Without Trust Agency’s prior written consent, you may not:

• Copy, reproduce, distribute, publish, display, or create derivative works from the Content;

9.2 References to ETSI standards, eIDAS regulations, and other official documents are provided for informational and intelligence purposes. Users should always consult the original official publications for authoritative versions.

9.3 Any third-party content accessible through the Platform is subject to the terms and conditions of its respective publisher. Trust Agency is not liable for the accuracy, completeness, or availability of third-party content.

10. Privacy and data protection

10.1 Data controller. Trust Agency acts as the data controller for personal data processed through the Platform. Our processing of your personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is available on the Platform and forms an integral part of these Terms.

10.2 Categories of personal data. In the course of providing the Services, we process the personal data you provide during registration (such as name, email address, organisation, professional role), your login credentials (password stored in encrypted form), and technical data generated through your use of the Platform (such as IP address, browser type, and usage analytics).

10.3 Purposes and legal bases. We process your personal data for the following purposes:

• Account creation and management — based on the performance of the contract constituted by these Terms (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR);
• Delivery of the Services, including Newsletter delivery — based on performance of the contract and, where applicable, your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or the soft opt-in provision under Article 13(2) of the ePrivacy Directive;
• Platform improvement and analytics — based on our legitimate interest in improving the Services (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR);
• Production of anonymised, aggregated statistics — based on our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR); once anonymised, the resulting data is no longer personal data within the meaning of GDPR Recital 26;
• Compliance with legal obligations — based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

10.4 Your rights. Under the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing of, and receive a portable copy of your personal data, and the right to object to processing. You have an absolute right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes at any time (Article 21(2) GDPR). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the details in Section 20.

10.5 Supervisory authority. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit / Autorité de protection des données), Drukpersstraat / Rue de la Presse 35, 1000 Brussels, Belgium (www.dataprotectionauthority.be), or with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence.

10.6 International transfers. If personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, such transfers will be subject to appropriate safeguards in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR, including European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions. Details are set out in the Privacy Policy.

10.7 Data retention. We retain your personal data for as long as your Account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce these Terms. Specific retention periods are set out in the Privacy Policy.

10.8 Security. Trust Agency implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction, in accordance with Article 32 GDPR.

10.9 Cookies. The Platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. Our use of cookies is governed by our Cookie Policy, available on the Platform, which provides information on the types of cookies used, their purposes, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. Non-essential cookies require your prior consent.

11. Anonymised data sharing with sponsors

11.1 Trust Intelligence is supported in part by Sponsors. To demonstrate the Platform’s reach and relevance, and to enable Sponsors to understand broad industry trends, Trust Agency may share Aggregated Data with Sponsors.

11.2 What we share. Aggregated Data shared with Sponsors may include overall platform usage statistics, sector-level trends, geographic distribution of interest, anonymised demographic summaries (such as professional roles and industries represented), and aggregate content engagement metrics. This data is always presented at a high level of aggregation and never identifies individual Users.

11.3 What we never share. Trust Agency will never share with Sponsors: your name, email address, organisation, Account details, individual browsing behaviour, individual content consumption patterns, or any other data that could directly or indirectly identify you as an individual.

11.4 Anonymisation safeguards. Before any data is shared with Sponsors, it is aggregated and stripped of all personal identifiers. Trust Agency applies minimum group-size thresholds to ensure that no individual can be singled out, linked, or inferred from the shared data, in accordance with the criteria established by the Article 29 Working Party Opinion 05/2014 on Anonymisation Techniques. Truly anonymised data falls outside the scope of the GDPR (Recital 26).

11.5 Transparency. A list of current Sponsor categories may be made available on the Platform upon request. Trust Agency does not sell personal data.

12. Disclaimers

12.1 “As is” basis. The Platform and all Content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Trust Agency makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the Platform or Content, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, reliability, timeliness, or non-infringement.

12.2 No guarantee of accuracy. While Trust Agency uses reasonable efforts to ensure that Content is accurate and up to date, the European digital identity landscape — including ETSI standards and eIDAS regulations — evolves continuously. Trust Agency does not warrant that Content reflects the most current version of every standard, regulation, or development at all times. Users are responsible for independently verifying information before relying on it for business, compliance, or regulatory purposes.

Trust Agency shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimise disruptions and, where practicable, to provide advance notice of scheduled maintenance.

12.4 No professional advice. Nothing on the Platform constitutes legal, regulatory, compliance, or professional advice. Content is provided for informational and intelligence purposes only. Always consult qualified professionals before acting on information obtained through the Platform.

12.5 Third-party dependencies. The Platform is hosted by third-party infrastructure providers and relies on third-party services. Trust Agency is not responsible for outages, performance issues, or data loss attributable to third-party service providers, to the extent permitted by law.

13. Limitation of liability

13.1 Exclusion of indirect damages. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Trust Agency shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunities, loss of data, loss of goodwill, reputational damage, or costs of procuring substitute services, arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Platform, regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise) and even if Trust Agency has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

13.2 Cap on direct damages. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Trust Agency’s total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Platform shall not exceed the greater of: (a) the total fees actually paid by you to Trust Agency in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or (b) one hundred euros (€100). For Users on the Free Tier who have not paid any fees, Trust Agency’s maximum aggregate liability shall not exceed one hundred euros (€100).

13.3 Basis of the bargain. The limitations and exclusions in this Section reflect a reasonable allocation of risk between the parties and form an essential basis of the agreement between you and Trust Agency. The Services would not be provided without these limitations.
