You may not reproduce, redistribute, or create derivative works from this content without our written permission.

This site links to external services including GitHub, crates.io, and our own products. Fated LLC is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of third-party websites. External links open in a new tab with rel="noopener".

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

This website is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be error-free, uninterrupted, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

8. Post-Quantum Cryptography Notice

Our products and infrastructure use NIST-standardised post-quantum algorithms (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA). While these algorithms represent the current state of the art in quantum-resistant cryptography, no cryptographic system provides an absolute guarantee of security. You should not rely solely on any single cryptographic mechanism for critical operations.

Our open-source libraries are provided under the MIT licence with no warranty. Use of these libraries in production systems is at your own risk. We make no representations regarding their fitness for any particular purpose or their correctness in all environments.

10. Modifications

We may update these terms at any time. Changes take effect immediately upon posting. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Fated LLC is registered, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of that jurisdiction.
