Legal notice

1. Who operates this website

This website, published at the domain alwadyatcapital.com, is operated by Al Wadyat Capital ("Al Wadyat", "we", "us"), an investment and business advisory firm working with early-stage companies in the blockchain and financial technology sectors.

Our office is at The Prism Tower, Unit 1503, Al Mostaqbal Street, Business Bay, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Written enquiries, including any enquiry concerning this notice, should be sent to info@alwadyatcapital.com. We handle correspondence in writing so that both parties retain a record of what was asked and what was answered.

Where this notice refers to "this website" it means every page published under the alwadyatcapital.com domain, including the enquiry form, the informational articles and the legal documents in this section. It does not extend to third-party websites that may be reachable from links on these pages.

2. Purpose and scope of the website

This website exists to describe what Al Wadyat does, for whom, in which markets and by what method, and to give a prospective client a way to make contact. It is informational and promotional in nature.

Nothing on this website constitutes an offer, a solicitation, a recommendation or an inducement to buy, sell or subscribe for any security, financial instrument, digital asset or investment product. Nothing on it constitutes investment advice, legal advice, tax advice or accounting advice, and no page should be read as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional engaged for your specific circumstances.

The pages describing our services set out the method and scope of work we can be engaged to perform. They are not an engagement, and no advisory relationship is created by reading this website, by sending an enquiry through it, or by receiving a reply to that enquiry. An engagement begins only when its scope, deliverables and terms have been agreed in writing between Al Wadyat and the client.

Where a page refers to work we perform on regulatory matters, that work is advisory. Al Wadyat is not a law firm, does not provide legal opinions, does not act as licensed counsel and does not represent clients before any authority. Where a legal opinion, a licensed sponsor or an admitted local adviser is required, we say so and assist the client in scoping and appointing one.

3. Accuracy and currency of the information published

We take reasonable care to ensure that the information on this website is accurate at the time it is published and that it is reviewed when the underlying position changes. Even so, information of this kind ages, and regulatory, market and commercial conditions in the sectors we work in change quickly.

No warranty, express or implied, is given that any page is complete, current or free from error, and no reader should act, or refrain from acting, on the basis of a page alone. Articles carry a publication date and, where they have been revised, a modification date, so that a reader can judge how current the material is.

External sources referenced in our articles are cited beside the specific statement they support, with a link to the primary source. Those sources are the property of their publishers and may be amended or withdrawn by them without notice to us. Following such a link takes you to a website we do not control and whose content, availability and privacy practices are not our responsibility.

4. Statements this website does not make

In the interests of clarity, and because the sectors we work in attract exaggerated claims, we set out expressly what this website does not assert.

It does not name clients, portfolio companies or counterparties, and it publishes no case studies. It does not state assets under management, capital deployed, headcount, founding date or corporate history. It does not publish testimonials, ratings or reviews, and it does not attribute quotations to individuals.

It makes no representation, forecast or guarantee about the outcome of any raise, transaction, licence application, partnership or investment, and no statement anywhere on this website should be construed as a promise of a financial return. Where our pages describe what an engagement involves, they describe a process and a standard of work, which are within our control, rather than an outcome, which depends on markets, regulators and third parties.

If a claim of the kinds listed in this section is made about Al Wadyat somewhere other than this website, it did not come from us and should be treated with caution.

5. Intellectual property

The content of this website — including its text, structure, layout, design system, illustrations, iconography, source code and the selection and arrangement of the material it presents — belongs to Al Wadyat or is used by us with permission, and is protected by the intellectual property laws that apply to it.

You may read, download and print pages from this website for your own information, and you may quote short extracts provided the quotation is accurate, is not misleading as to context, and identifies alwadyatcapital.com as the source with a link to the page quoted.

You may not reproduce this website or a substantial part of it, republish its content on another site, present it as your own work, or use it to train, fine-tune or evaluate an automated system, without our prior written consent. Requests are considered on their merits and should be sent to info@alwadyatcapital.com.

Third-party names, marks and logos that may appear on this website remain the property of their owners. Their appearance does not imply any endorsement, affiliation or partnership unless a page states so explicitly.

6. Links to and from this website

Links to external websites are provided where they support a specific statement or help a reader verify a fact for themselves. We select them for relevance and authority at the time of publication and review them when we revise a page. We do not control those websites and are not responsible for their content, their availability or the way they handle personal data.

You may link to this website from another site provided the link is fair, does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it, and does not suggest an association, approval or endorsement that does not exist. Framing this website within another, or presenting its content as though it were part of another service, is not permitted without our written consent.

7. Availability, security and limitation of liability

This website is provided on an "as available" basis. We aim to keep it accessible and secure, but we do not warrant uninterrupted availability, and access may be suspended, withdrawn or restricted at any time, including for maintenance or for reasons outside our control.

To the fullest extent permitted by the law applicable to you, Al Wadyat excludes liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or inability to use, this website, or from reliance on any material published on it. Nothing in this notice excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, and nothing in it affects any mandatory rights you may have under the law of your country of residence.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of the device and network you use to access this website, including protection against malicious software. We are not liable for loss caused by a virus, distributed denial-of-service attack or other harmful material that infects your equipment through your use of this website or of a website linked from it.

8. Changes to this notice

We may amend this notice to reflect a change in our operations, in the configuration of this website or in the requirements that apply to it. The version published here is the one in force, and the date at the head of this document records when it was last revised.

Material changes are reflected in the document rather than announced separately. If you rely on this notice for a particular purpose, we suggest you retain a copy of the version you read.

Any question about this notice, including a request for clarification of anything in it, should be sent to info@alwadyatcapital.com.
