Sanctions, Export Controls and Restricted Parties Notice

• 1.1 The Site applies the sanctions law of Canada, including the measures of the United Nations Security Council that Canada implements, and reads it conservatively.
• 1.2 Paying parties and partners are also screened against the sanctions lists of the United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom, as far as the law that binds the publisher permits.
• 1.3 Because the publisher operates in Canada and the United States, staff, volunteers and systems subject to the law of the United States take no part in any service to a person in a territory that law restricts.

• 2.1 Registration, accounts and purchases are not offered to people who live in the following territories, on the Site and its member services: Iran, North Korea (DPRK), Russia, Belarus, and the regions of Crimea, Sevastopol, Donetsk oblast and Luhansk oblast. The registration form does not offer them.
• 2.2 Public pages, published reports, data and educational material remain readable from everywhere, as information made available to the public.
• 2.3 Accounts and purchases are also not currently available in: Cuba.
• 2.4 A person who lives in one of these territories must not register or hold an account. An account whose own details, such as its billing or card country, place it in one of these territories is closed, and a payment from one is refused.

• 3.1 No account, service, payment, sponsorship, subscription or partnership is offered to a person or entity named on the Consolidated Canadian Autonomous Sanctions List or a sanctions list of the United Nations, to an entity owned or controlled by one, or to a person acting for one. The same applies to persons on the lists of the United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom, within the limit stated above.
• 3.2 Paying parties and partners are screened against those lists. A match is reviewed before anything is provided, and the account or transaction is refused where the match is confirmed.

• 4.1 In other countries with targeted sanctions programmes, accounts are offered, and each paying party, partner or counterpart is screened as above. Government bodies and state-owned entities of those countries are assessed individually before any service is provided.

• 5.1 Software, data, technical information and devices offered through the Site may be subject to the export control laws of Canada, the United States and the European Union, including controls on encryption, Earth observation and geospatial products and advanced computing.
• 5.2 A user may not export, re-export or transfer anything obtained from the Site to a territory, person or end use that those laws prohibit, including military end uses and weapons of mass destruction.

• 6.1 Sanctions change often. The territories and lists above are reviewed every month and this notice is updated when they change; an account affected by a change is told of it.
• 6.2 Questions about this notice go to contact@iranians.global. This notice and any dispute about it are governed by the laws applicable in Canada, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules that would apply another law, without prejudice to any mandatory protection of the law of the country where a user lives.
