Terms status — draft

Controlled-preview status: public terms are under legal and operational review and are not yet effective.

Controlled-preview documentation

Shielda is not generally available. Source code, fixtures, tests, version labels, plans, and historical checklists do not establish live availability, compatibility, compliance, or contract terms.

DRAFT — NOT EFFECTIVE — LEGAL APPROVAL PENDING. This page is not a public offer, click-wrap agreement, subscription contract, service-level commitment, or substitute for an executed controlled-preview agreement.

Draft source reviewed: July 12, 2026

Effective date: Not established

Product status: Controlled preview

Current commercial boundary

  • Public pricing, free-trial terms, checkout, renewal rules, and stable plan entitlements are not approved public offers.
  • A public agent installer, stable public packages, cloud-marketplace purchasing, and generally available service are not claimed.
  • Scanner, integration, model-provider, compliance, remediation, and verification behavior must be scoped for the exact preview configuration.
  • Security output is decision support, not a guarantee that a system is secure, compliant, or free of vulnerabilities.
  • Security testing must be limited to systems the participant owns or is explicitly authorized to assess. Active testing can require a separate product approval and system-owner permission.

What a preview agreement must cover

Any controlled-preview use must be governed by terms agreed for that evaluation. Depending on the scope, those terms need to identify the parties, authorized systems, supported functionality, deployment and data flow, permissions, fees if any, support, confidentiality, privacy and data processing, security responsibilities, retention and exit treatment, and liability.

What remains under review

Public terms require counsel and accountable business owners to approve the contracting entity, governing law, service definition, commercial model, IP and confidentiality treatment, warranties, liability, suspension and termination, incident obligations, AI-provider terms, and authorized-testing rules.

No website heading, plan name, source file, test, or product screen creates an entitlement that is absent from the signed preview terms.
