NEXTGUARD SOLUTIONS, INC. — WEBSITE TERMS OF USE

1. Website Purpose

The NextGuard Solutions website provides information about technology, infrastructure, consulting, managed services, hosting, security-related services, and other business services.

Website content is provided for general informational and business-development purposes.

Information on the website does not create a customer relationship, service agreement, warranty, or contractual obligation unless a separate written agreement has been executed.

2. Quotes, Evaluations, and Consultations

Requests submitted through the website are requests for contact only.

Submitting a:

• Free evaluation request

does not create a binding service agreement.

Any actual services are subject to availability, scope review, pricing, applicable licensing requirements, and any separate agreement required by NextGuard.

3. Free Evaluations

A free evaluation is intended to provide a preliminary review or discussion of technology, infrastructure, security, or operational needs.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing:

• It is not a formal audit.
• It is not a certification.
• It is not a warranty.
• It does not guarantee discovery of every problem, vulnerability, failure, or risk.

Recommendations may depend on the information and access available at the time of evaluation.

4. No Guarantee of Service Availability

Descriptions of services on the website do not guarantee that a particular service is available:

• In every geographic area

If a separate written agreement conflicts with these Website Terms, the separate written agreement controls with respect to the applicable service.

6. NextGuard Security, LLC

Certain physical security services, including cameras, access control, gate systems, and related facility security services, may be provided by NextGuard Security, LLC, a separate legal entity.

References or links to NextGuard Security do not mean that NextGuard Solutions, Inc. is the contracting party for services performed by NextGuard Security, LLC.

The applicable proposal, contract, or service agreement will identify the responsible legal entity.

7. NextGuard Hosting

NextGuard Hosting is a DBA/trade name operated by NextGuard Solutions, Inc.

• Legal advice
• Accounting advice
• Financial advice
• Insurance advice
• Regulatory advice

Technology or security recommendations should not be interpreted as a legal determination that a customer satisfies any particular regulation, standard, certification, or insurance requirement unless specifically stated in a signed agreement.

9. Security Information

No technology or security system can eliminate all risk.

Information regarding cybersecurity, surveillance, access control, backup, monitoring, physical security, or similar services should not be interpreted as a guarantee that:

• An intrusion will not occur
• Data will not be lost
• Systems will not fail
• Crime will be prevented
• A cyberattack will not occur
