Last updated: 27 May 2026  ·  Effective: 27 May 2026

Not legal advice.Embargo provides regulatory monitoring and intelligence only. Nothing on this platform constitutes legal, compliance, or export control advice. You remain solely responsible for your organisation's compliance obligations. Consult qualified export control counsel for advice specific to your situation.

1. Agreement to terms

By accessing or using the Embargo service (“Service”) operated by Pintu Holdings Ltd, registered in England and Wales (“Company”, “we”, “us”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you are using the Service on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

2. The Service

Embargo is a regulatory intelligence platform that monitors publicly available export control sources including the US Federal Register, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) Entity List, EU Official Journal, UK Export Control Joint Unit (ECJU), and other jurisdictions. We process and summarise this information and deliver it to subscribers via email digest and a searchable web dashboard.

The Service is an information and monitoring service only. It does not constitute legal, regulatory, compliance, or professional advice of any kind.

3. Subscriptions and billing

Free trial

All paid plans include a 14-day free trial. No credit card is required to start. You may cancel at any time during the trial without charge.

Billing

Subscriptions are billed monthly in advance. Payments are processed by Stripe. By subscribing, you authorise us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel.

Cancellation

You may cancel at any time via your dashboard or by emailing billing@getembargo.com. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We do not offer pro-rata refunds for partial months except where required by law.

Price changes

We will give at least 30 days' notice of any price change. Continued use of the Service after the notice period constitutes acceptance of the new price.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service or its content without written permission.

  • Legal advice or opinion

  • A representation that you are or will be compliant with any regulation

Regulatory sources may be updated after our monitoring cycle. Always verify information against official government sources and seek qualified export control counsel for decisions affecting your compliance programme.

Your organisation's data (preference settings, user accounts) remains your property. We do not claim ownership of any data you input into the Service.

  • The Service will be available at any particular time or location.

9. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately if you breach these Terms. You may terminate your subscription at any time. On termination, your right to use the Service ceases and we will delete your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

10. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
