What's the deal?

These Legal Terms are like a handshake agreement between you (yes, you!) and us (the cool folks at Pyrifera Technologies Ltd) and they cover how you can use and access our Services. When referring to 'you', we mean either you as an individual, or the company or organisation that you are representing. By accessing, using or registering for our Services, you're saying you read, understood, and agreed to play by these rules. We've done everything we can to make sure they are balanced and fair, so we're afraid that if you're not up for it then you can't access our Services - sorry!
