The following regions are not served by Codequiry:

  • European Union (EU) member states
  • European Economic Area (EEA)
  • United Kingdom
  • Switzerland
  • Other jurisdictions with equivalent comprehensive data protection frameworks

This restriction applies to residents, citizens accessing from these regions, and individuals physically located within these territories.

Available Regions

Our services are available in:

  • United States — Our primary market

Account Requirements

By creating an account or using our services, you represent and warrant that:

  • You are not located in a restricted region
  • You are not a resident of a restricted region

Enforcement

We employ technical and operational measures to verify user locations, including IP address analysis, payment information verification, and account monitoring. Access from restricted regions may result in immediate account suspension or termination.

Account Termination

Accounts found to be in violation of these geographic restrictions will be permanently deactivated. This action is taken without prior notice and without refund of any fees paid. Use of VPNs, proxies, or other methods to circumvent these restrictions is prohibited and constitutes a material breach of our Terms of Service.

Emergency Usage for Academic Integrity

We understand that educators, teachers, and professors may face exceptional circumstances where academic integrity is at immediate risk and access to plagiarism detection services is urgently needed, even from restricted regions.

⚠️

This Service is NOT GDPR-Compliant

Codequiry does NOT comply with GDPR, UK GDPR, or equivalent EU/EEA/UK data protection regulations. If you are an educator located in or accessing from a restricted region (EU, EEA, UK, Switzerland) and choose to use our services for emergency academic integrity purposes, you must understand the following:

What We DO NOT Provide

No GDPR Compliance
We do not implement GDPR-required data processing safeguards, adequacy decisions, or standard contractual clauses.
No EU Representative
We have not appointed a representative in the European Union as required by GDPR Article 27.
No GDPR Rights
We do not honor GDPR data subject rights including access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), portability (Art. 20), or objection (Art. 21).
No EU Authority Recognition
We do not recognize the jurisdiction of EU/EEA/UK data protection authorities or supervisory bodies.
No Adequate Safeguards
Data transfers to the U.S. are NOT protected by adequacy decisions, Privacy Shield (invalidated), or equivalent mechanisms.
U.S. Law Only
All data processing occurs exclusively under United States federal and state law.

Informed Acknowledgment for Emergency Use

If you choose to proceed despite these limitations, you acknowledge and understand that:

  • You are voluntarily choosing to use a service that does NOT comply with GDPR or equivalent regulations
  • You understand your data will be processed, stored, and transferred under U.S. law without GDPR protections
  • You have made an informed decision that addressing immediate academic integrity concerns justifies using a non-compliant service
  • You accept full responsibility for any conflict between your use of this service and your local data protection obligations
  • You understand that Codequiry LLC makes no representations about the legality of your use of this service under your local laws
  • You are using this service strictly for legitimate educational and academic integrity purposes
  • This acknowledgment does NOT constitute a legally enforceable waiver of your GDPR rights, but rather an informed choice to use a non-compliant service

Our Position

Codequiry LLC: We are a U.S. company operating under U.S. law. We do not offer GDPR-compliant services and do not accept obligations under GDPR. This disclosure does not create GDPR compliance obligations for Codequiry LLC. Users in restricted regions who choose to access our services do so at their own risk and discretion.

Recommendation: We strongly recommend that educators in EU/EEA/UK regions seek plagiarism detection services that fully comply with GDPR and local regulations. This emergency usage disclosure is provided solely to ensure informed decision-making for educators facing exceptional circumstances. It is not an invitation to circumvent geographic restrictions, and we maintain that our services are not designed for or marketed to users in restricted regions.

Legal Framework

Codequiry LLC is a United States company operating under U.S. federal and state law. We have made a business decision to limit our service offerings to jurisdictions where we choose to operate. This is our right as a private business and represents a legitimate exercise of market selection.

Jurisdiction and Governing Law

All services and this agreement are governed by United States law. We do not consent to the jurisdiction of foreign courts or regulatory authorities. Disputes arising from these restrictions are subject to the dispute resolution provisions in our Terms of Service.

Privacy and Data Protection

For authorized users in permitted jurisdictions, we provide robust data protection consistent with United States legal standards:

  • Industry-standard encryption and security measures
  • Account deletion capabilities
  • Transparent privacy practices
  • Compliance with applicable U.S. data protection laws
  • No sale of personal data to third parties

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are certain regions restricted?

We have chosen to focus our operations in markets where we can provide optimal service while managing regulatory compliance. This is a standard business practice for technology companies.

What if I'm traveling to a restricted region?

We recommend not accessing our services while physically located in restricted regions to avoid potential account issues. Our restrictions are based on location of access.

Can I request an exception?

We do not grant exceptions to our geographic restrictions. However, educators in restricted regions facing emergency academic integrity situations should review the "Emergency Usage for Academic Integrity" section above. This section provides full disclosure that our service is NOT GDPR-compliant and allows educators to make an informed choice about using a non-compliant service in exceptional circumstances. This is not an exception to our policy, but rather transparent disclosure of our non-compliance to enable informed decision-making.

Will you expand to restricted regions in the future?

We have no current plans to expand service availability to restricted regions. Any future changes will be announced publicly.
