Introduction
Welcome to the Terms of Use for Kyber Club, an experimental platform offering quantum-safe cryptography tools compliant with NIST standards FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), and FIPS 205 (SPHINCS+). These terms govern your use of our website and tools at https://kyber.club. By accessing or using Kyber Club, you agree to these terms in full.
Last Updated: 15 March 2025
Experimental Nature
Kyber Club provides tools for exploring post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms, including ML-KEM, ML-DSA, and SPHINCS+. These NIST-compliant algorithms are subject to ongoing testing and refinement. Kyber Club is intended solely for research, educational, and experimental purposes.
Warning: Our tools are not suitable for mission-critical systems, production environments, or scenarios requiring guaranteed data security. Users should assume potential vulnerabilities or limitations exist.
Use at Your Own Risk
Kyber Club is provided "as-is" and "as-available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Santosh Pandit and contributors do not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, security, or performance of the tools.
You use Kyber Club at your own risk. We advise against relying on these tools for sensitive or critical data until PQC algorithms are fully standardised and widely validated.
No Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Santosh Pandit and Kyber Club are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the platform or tools. This includes damages for loss of data, profits, or other intangibles, even if advised of such possibilities.
Using our tools—for key generation, encryption, signing, or verification—carries no liability for errors, breaches, or failures.
Intellectual Property
All content, tools, and source code, unless otherwise noted, are the intellectual property of Santosh Pandit, copyrighted © 2025. You may use the tools for personal, non-commercial experimentation but must not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without permission, except as allowed by applicable open-source licences (e.g., for liboqs).
Third-Party Components
Kyber Club uses third-party libraries like liboqs, governed by their own licences and development cycles. We do not control these components beyond their integration and consider their use experimental.
Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms of Use at any time, posting changes here with a revised "Last Updated" date. Continued use of Kyber Club constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
