Plain-language summary: By using MaestroGRC, your organisation agrees to these terms. You own your audit data. We provide the platform as a service. Misuse is prohibited. Liability is limited to fees paid. Either party may terminate with reasonable notice.
Section 01

Acceptance of Terms

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between your organisation ("Customer", "you", "your") and GRCfy Technologies Private Ltd ("Company", "we", "us", "our"), the operator of MaestroGRC ("the Service" or "the Platform").

By accessing or using the Platform — including creating an account, accepting an invitation, or authorising users within your organisation to access the Platform — you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organisation. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Platform.

Section 02

Description of Service

MaestroGRC is an enterprise compliance orchestration platform that enables audit firms and client organisations to manage audits, controls, findings, evidence, and compliance reporting in a structured, role-based environment.

Core capabilities include, but are not limited to:

The Platform is provided as a software-as-a-service (SaaS). We reserve the right to modify, enhance, or discontinue features with reasonable notice.

Section 03

Account Registration & Responsibilities

3.1 Account Creation

Accounts are provisioned by platform administrators on behalf of organisations. Each user must have a unique account. Sharing credentials between users is prohibited.

3.2 Account Security

You are responsible for:

3.3 Accurate Information

You agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information when registering and to keep this information updated. We may suspend accounts where we have reason to believe information is false or misleading.

3.4 Password Policy

Platform administrators may configure mandatory password complexity and expiry policies applicable to all users within their organisation. Users must comply with applicable password requirements.

Section 04

Subscriptions & Billing

4.1 Subscription Plans

Access to the Platform is subject to an active subscription. Subscriptions are assigned to audit firms ("auditor subscriptions") or client entities ("client subscriptions") by platform administrators. Plans are defined by audit credit allowances, storage quotas, and billing cycles (monthly or annual).

4.2 Trial Subscriptions

We may offer time-limited trial access at the discretion of platform administrators. Trial subscriptions are subject to a maximum audit credit limit and duration as configured by the administrator. Trials automatically expire at the end of the trial period.

4.3 Credits & Usage

Each audit created or restored from the recycle bin consumes one credit from the applicable subscription. Credits are reset on subscription renewal. Unused credits do not carry forward beyond the renewal cycle unless otherwise specified in your plan.

4.4 Storage

Each subscription plan includes a defined storage quota for evidence uploads. Additional storage may be granted by platform administrators. Exceeding your quota will prevent new uploads until additional storage is allocated.

4.5 Renewal & Lapse

Subscriptions are renewed manually by platform administrators. Renewal reminders are sent in advance of the renewal date. If a subscription is not renewed, a grace period applies (default: 30 days) after which user accounts are locked. Data is retained for a further period (default: 90 days) before becoming eligible for permanent deletion.

Note: Subscription management is currently administered manually by platform administrators. Automated payment processing is not yet integrated. Billing terms are agreed separately in your subscription agreement.
Section 05

6.4 Data on Termination

Following termination of your account, Customer Data will be retained for the data retention period and then permanently deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You may request an export of your data before termination by contacting support@maestrogrc.in.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
