1. Introduction
SoftSapien serves clients across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. Our services, and any software, technology or technical data we deliver, may be subject to export control and economic sanctions laws in the countries where we and our clients operate.

4. Restricted Parties and Sanctioned Jurisdictions
We do not knowingly provide services to individuals, entities or jurisdictions subject to applicable sanctions or restricted-party designations. Where required, we screen new clients, suppliers and engagements against relevant restricted-party lists before contracting, and we may decline or suspend an engagement where compliance cannot be confirmed.
