The Client may not resell, copy, publish, or distribute Vigilance Networks’ proprietary materials without written permission.

14. AI-Assisted Services

Vigilance Networks may use AI-assisted tools to help with documentation, planning, troubleshooting, network analysis, workflow improvement, cybersecurity recommendations, or business technology planning.

AI-assisted outputs are used as support tools and are reviewed with professional judgment. AI-generated recommendations are not a substitute for legal, financial, regulatory, or compliance advice.

The Client is responsible for reviewing and approving final decisions before implementation.

15. Website, Portal, and Online Requests

If the Client submits information through VigilanceNetworks.com, a contact form, quote request, service request, email, phone call, or future client portal, the Client agrees that the information submitted is accurate and authorized.

Submitting a request does not guarantee acceptance of work. Vigilance Networks may decline, modify, or request additional details before accepting a service request.

Vigilance Networks provides information technology and network support services only.

We do not provide legal, tax, medical, insurance, financial, or regulatory compliance advice. Clients should consult qualified professionals for those matters.
