Terms of Service

Last updated: 29 May 2026  ·  EPC Network

These Terms of Service govern your use of the EPC Network website and any consultancy services provided by EPC Network ("EPC Network", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing our website or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these terms. Please read them carefully before proceeding.

1. About EPC Network

EPC Network is a specialist cybersecurity and AI consultancy registered in England and Wales. We provide services including penetration testing, security architecture, AI strategy, machine learning consultancy, AI/ML fine-tuning, and emerging threat advisory.

2. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing this website or engaging EPC Network for any service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use our website or engage our services.

We reserve the right to update these terms at any time. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of our services following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

3. Website Use

You may use this website for lawful purposes only. You must not:

  • Use the website in any way that breaches applicable local, national, or international law
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website or its underlying systems
  • Introduce malicious code, viruses, or disruptive material of any kind
  • Use automated tools to scrape, crawl, or systematically extract content without written permission
  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation when submitting enquiries
  • Use the website to send unsolicited commercial communications

4. Consultancy Services

4.1 Engagement Terms

All consultancy services — including cybersecurity assessments, penetration testing, AI strategy, and AI/ML research — are subject to a separate written service agreement between EPC Network and the client. These Terms of Service apply to general website use and enquiries; the service agreement governs the specific engagement scope, deliverables, fees, and timelines.

4.2 Authorisation for Security Testing

All penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and offensive security activities are conducted exclusively under explicit written authorisation from the client. EPC Network will not conduct any security testing without a signed scope-of-work agreement and written authorisation covering the target systems, test dates, and permitted techniques.

Any individual or organisation requesting security testing must have the legal authority to authorise such testing on the relevant systems. EPC Network accepts no liability for engagements conducted based on false or incomplete authorisation.

4.3 AI and ML Services

AI/ML fine-tuning and model development services are delivered based on the data, requirements, and objectives provided by the client. EPC Network does not warrant that AI models will achieve specific performance targets, as outcomes depend substantially on data quality, volume, and domain characteristics outside our control.

Clients retain ownership of their data and any models developed using their data, unless otherwise agreed in writing. EPC Network retains ownership of methodologies, frameworks, and tools developed independently of the client engagement.

5. Intellectual Property

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, service descriptions, and design — is the intellectual property of EPC Network and is protected under UK and international copyright law.

Our consultancy methodologies, assessment frameworks, AI/ML techniques, and research outputs represent the intellectual property of EPC Network. Nothing in these terms transfers any ownership of our intellectual property to you.

You may not reproduce, redistribute, modify, or create derivative works from any website content without our prior written consent.

6. Confidentiality

EPC Network treats all client information — including system details, vulnerability findings, AI model data, business strategies, and personnel information — as strictly confidential. We maintain non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) as standard practice for all engagements.

Clients are similarly expected to treat EPC Network's methodologies, tools, and unpublished findings as confidential and not to disclose them to third parties without our written consent.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

This website and our services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. EPC Network does not warrant that:

  • This website will be continuously available or free from errors
  • Cybersecurity assessments will identify every vulnerability in your systems
  • Implementation of our recommendations will prevent all security incidents
  • AI/ML models will achieve specific accuracy or performance levels
  • Our advisory services will ensure regulatory compliance in all jurisdictions

Cybersecurity and AI are rapidly evolving fields. Our advice is based on current knowledge and industry best practice at the time of delivery and may become outdated as new threats and technologies emerge.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, EPC Network shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of this website or engagement of our services, including but not limited to:

  • Loss of revenue, profits, or business
  • Security breaches occurring despite our recommendations
  • Decisions made based on our consultancy outputs
  • AI model outputs causing unintended consequences
  • Data loss or system downtime during or after an engagement

Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising from these terms or a service engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to EPC Network in the 12 months preceding the claim.

9. Responsible Disclosure

Where EPC Network discovers vulnerabilities in third-party systems during the course of an authorised engagement, we follow responsible disclosure practices in line with the NCSC and industry standards. Any findings are reported exclusively to the authorised client and are not publicly disclosed without the client's written consent, except where required by law.

10. Third-Party Services

This website uses EmailJS for contact form processing. We are not responsible for the availability, terms, or data practices of third-party services. This website does not embed third-party advertising, analytics tracking, or social media plugins.

11. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless EPC Network and its directors, employees, and contractors from any claims, losses, liabilities, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of this website, breach of these terms, provision of false or incomplete information in connection with a service engagement, or infringement of any third-party rights.

12. Termination

EPC Network reserves the right to suspend or terminate access to this website or any service engagement where we reasonably believe these terms have been breached, applicable law has been violated, or continuation of the engagement would expose EPC Network or third parties to legal or reputational risk.

13. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service and any disputes arising from them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Both parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales for the resolution of any disputes.

14. Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
