Legal Notice and Disclaimer

Meaning of our name

Our name describes the duty of care organizations owe over the data entrusted to them, and the discipline of demonstrating that duty through evidence. Data Fiduciaries does not act as a fiduciary, trustee, or agent of any client or its data except as expressly agreed in writing. No fiduciary, trust, or agency relationship is created by use of this website, by communication with us, or by any engagement, except as expressly set out in a written agreement signed by Data Fiduciaries.

No legal advice

Data Fiduciaries is not a law firm. Information on this website and in our services is provided for general and technical purposes and does not constitute legal advice. You should consult qualified counsel regarding your legal obligations.

Website content

Content on this website is provided for general information only, without warranty of any kind, and may change without notice. It does not create a client relationship. Services are provided only under a written master services agreement and statement of work.

Independent audits and attestations

Where a standard or regulator requires an independent auditor or assessor, such as for SOC reports or PCI DSS assessments, the attestation is issued by that independent party. Data Fiduciaries prepares clients, coordinates engagements, and represents client interests, and does not issue attestations that require independence.

No emergency incident response

Data Fiduciaries does not provide emergency incident response. Our incident work is preparatory and retrospective: response plans, playbooks, tabletop exercises, readiness and recoverability assessment, and independent post-incident review. If you are experiencing an incident now, contact your counsel and your cyber insurer.

Confidentiality of communications

Please do not send confidential information through this website until confidentiality terms are in place. Communications through the website do not by themselves create a confidential or privileged relationship.

Right to decline

Data Fiduciaries and prospective clients each retain the right to decline an engagement for any reason, including conflicts, capacity, or fit.
