Description of Service

Polysync is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) orchestration platform available on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. The Service is metadata-driven and enables organisations to:

  • Configure, schedule, and monitor data pipelines across supported cloud platforms, including Azure (Data Factory, Databricks, Functions, Logic Apps, Synapse Pipelines, Fabric, AKS, Batch, AI Foundry), Google Cloud (Cloud Composer, Vertex AI, Cloud Functions, Dataflow), and AWS (Glue). Additional platforms may be added over time.
  • Define DAG-based task dependencies with recursive resolution and cycle detection.
  • Manage platform credentials through supported secret vault integrations, including Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Google Cloud Secret Manager, and HashiCorp Vault, or through Polysync's managed Azure Key Vault.
  • Schedule work using standard cron expressions with timezone awareness.
  • Monitor execution in real time, with run history and dispatcher health views.

We may modify, update, or discontinue features of the Service over time. Where a change materially reduces functionality you depend on, we will provide reasonable advance notice where practicable.

From time to time we may make features available as preview or beta. Preview features are provided as-is, may change without notice, and are not covered by any availability or support commitments described elsewhere in these Terms.

Azure Marketplace Subscription

3.1 Purchase Channel

Access to the Service is obtained exclusively through the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. All subscription provisioning, billing, payment processing, invoicing, and credit-control activities are handled by Microsoft under the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace Terms and the Microsoft Customer Agreement applicable to your purchase. Polysync is not responsible for billing disputes or errors that arise from the Marketplace platform itself.

3.2 Subscription Plans

Polysync offers subscription plans as listed on the Azure Marketplace product page. Each plan defines the included features, supported platforms, user seats, and any execution limits. Plan details may change. Active subscribers will receive reasonable advance notice of any material change affecting their plan.

3.3 Free Trial

If Microsoft makes a free trial of our offer available through the Marketplace, the trial is available once per organisation. At the end of the trial period, continued access requires an active paid subscription. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue any free-trial offering.

3.4 Cancellation

You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Azure Marketplace portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. After cancellation, your tenant data is retained for a 30-day grace period and then permanently deleted, including the tenant database schema. You are responsible for exporting any data you wish to retain before the grace period expires.

3.5 Refunds

Refund eligibility for Marketplace purchases is governed by Microsoft's Marketplace refund policy. Polysync does not independently issue refunds for subscriptions purchased through the Azure Marketplace.

License Grant

4.1 Limited License

arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service, regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise), even if Polysync has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under them without our prior written consent. Polysync may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of its assets.

20.5 Force Majeure
