Thrixity Ltd. (“PurpleWASP”) is excited to welcome you to our growing community of customers.

We recommend that anyone reviewing our standard terms review this FAQ first.
You are purchasing access to the PurpleWASP Services; a cloud-based software platform designed for policy management, distribution, review workflows, and compliance tracking. Our solution enables customers to create, distribute, and manage organizational policies efficiently while tracking user acknowledgments, reviews, and testing (as applicable).

Customers should not upload sensitive personal information beyond what is reasonably necessary for proper use of the Services.
Our EUSA reflects the nature of a shared, standardized SaaS platform. It covers the typical terms required for our multi-tenant architecture and avoids the complexities of customized security, privacy, or service-level terms, which cannot be tailored on a per-customer basis.
Our EUSA enables quick customer onboarding—accelerating time to value by allowing immediate access to compliance tools and policy workflows. Experience shows that customers onboard significantly faster when using our standardized EUSA versus negotiating third-party agreements.
PurpleWASP operates on a pre-paid, non-cancellable subscription model. Our pricing structure is designed around customer commitments, allowing us to continuously enhance the platform. Subscriptions may be one-year or multi-year (as specified in an Order Form) depending on your preferred term.
In most cases, no separate DPA is required for the use of PurpleWASP.
