Terms of Service

Acceptance of terms

By accessing this website or using the services provided by Velaris Co. (“Velaris”, “we”, “our”), you agree to these Terms of Service. They apply to all visitors and to anyone who engages our advisory, introduction or network services. If you do not agree, please do not use this website or our services.

What we do

Velaris provides sports M&A advisory and introduction services: buy-side and sell-side advisory, origination of off-market opportunities, and introductions between capital and asset owners, including through the R² Exchange network we co-host. Our services are described in more detail on our Disclosures page. We may modify, suspend or discontinue any aspect of our services with reasonable notice.

Any engagement is governed by a written agreement between you and Velaris, such as a mandate letter or a Master Service Agreement. Where these terms and a written agreement differ, the written agreement prevails.

Eligibility

Our services are intended for professional parties: investors, owners, operators and their advisers. You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts. By engaging us you confirm that you meet these requirements and that you are acting for yourself or with authority for the entity you represent.

No advice, no offer

Nothing on this website is investment, legal, tax or accounting advice, and nothing on it is an offer or solicitation to buy, sell or subscribe for any security or interest. All investments carry risk, including the loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Obtain your own independent professional advice before entering into any transaction.

Confidentiality and non-circumvention

Details of mandates, opportunities and counterparties that we share with you are confidential. Where we make an introduction under a written agreement, that agreement will set out the confidentiality and non-circumvention obligations that apply to it, typically for 24 months from the date of the introduction.

Your responsibilities

• —Provide accurate and complete information when you contact us or complete an intake form.
• —Use this website and our services only for lawful purposes.
• —Do not attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, or to interfere with the operation of this website.
• —Respect the intellectual property rights of Velaris and of third parties.
• —Tell us promptly if any information you have given us changes materially.

Intellectual property

All content on this website, including text, design, the Velaris name and mark, and the R² Exchange name, is the property of Velaris or its licensors. Partner names and logos belong to their respective owners. You may not reproduce or distribute any content without prior written permission.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Velaris shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of this website or our services. Our total liability in connection with any engagement shall not exceed the fees paid by you to Velaris in the twelve months preceding the claim. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Velaris and its officers, employees and agents from any claims, damages, losses or expenses arising from your breach of these terms or your unlawful use of our services. This obligation survives the end of your relationship with Velaris.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Portugal. Any dispute arising from them shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation and, failing that, submitted to the courts of Lisbon, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer or jurisdictional rules that apply to you.

Changes to these terms

We may modify these terms at any time by posting the updated version on this page with a revised date. Your continued use of this website or our services after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
