3. Accounts & Access

NextForge may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, misuse the platform, or engage in fraudulent activity. Administrative accounts have additional access and carry additional responsibility.
4. Pilot Engagements
Each pilot is governed by the Master Pilot Agreement and the applicable Pilot Order. Pilot Fees are non-refundable once a pilot has been initiated (Kickoff Date reached). Scope changes require a written amendment to the Pilot Order. Buyers may walk away at the end of a pilot with no further obligations.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Mexico (Federal). Disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Mexico City, Mexico, or arbitration under the Master Pilot Agreement where applicable.
