In one paragraph
These documents were not rushed or copied from other companies. Every important sentence has a named source. Each document was checked from many angles by a separate "reviewing lawyer" whose only job was to find problems, and those problems were fixed. Wherever we were not sure, we did not guess: we marked the gap in yellow. Every mistake found along the way was recorded and corrected. The whole path is written down step by step, so anyone, including our lawyer, can follow it.
The path we took, step by step
1. We gathered the facts first
Before writing a single sentence we collected everything known about HidzoVPN: the team's answers to the legal questionnaire, the current website and store pages, the research reports and audits of 23 September, and the company's official records. Every fact got a source number, so it is always clear where it came from.
2. We read the most important things in the official source ourselves
We did not rely on summaries. Anything that affects a decision was read directly on official websites. For example:
- The company's official record at the Florida Department of State: name, number, active status and annual report.
- The official filing that moved the company from California to Florida. The original file is stored with a digital fingerprint that proves it has not been changed.
- The trademark file at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
- The text of the laws and rules themselves: Florida corporate law, Florida's automatic-renewal law, the Iran sanctions regulations, Apple's rule 5.4 for VPN apps, California's privacy regulations, and the EU's official withdrawal form.
3. We looked from every angle an experienced lawyer would
Each document had a checklist so nothing was missed: contracts, consumer rights, privacy, security, sanctions and export, Apple, Google and payment-company rules, tax, trademark, disputes, and whether any personal risk falls on the directors.
4. We drafted under strict rules
We wrote a drafting standard that binds every document:
- Never invent a law or a fact.
- Mark every uncertainty; this is the yellow text. We do not fill gaps with guesses.
- Say how sure we are about every important statement: "read directly", "reported" or "our assessment".
- Give every document a "limits of this analysis" section that says honestly what was not checked.
- No advertising claim without evidence.
5. An independent reviewer looked for problems
After drafting, each document went to a "reviewing lawyer": a separate AI agent whose only job was to find faults. It checked from ten angles: correct law, correct facts, completeness, consistency with the other documents, enforceability, Apple and Google rules, clarity for users, risk, and reading the text as someone looking to sue would. Findings were graded by seriousness and every serious one was fixed.
6. A separate researcher handled the law
A separate research agent found the laws behind the documents in their original sources and wrote four research memos. Our rule: nothing the researcher said counted as certain until we had read it ourselves in the official source.
7. We put all the documents side by side and checked again
When all twelve were ready they were checked together so that no two documents say different things, for example about how long information is kept or how to cancel. Thirty-one issues were found; all but one were fixed, and that one is recorded.
8. We prepared the texts for our lawyer
The result is a set of drafts a licensed lawyer can review and approve quickly, because the source of every important sentence is clear. Guidance from the Florida Bar and the American Bar Association on AI asks exactly this of lawyers: to review and verify anything prepared with AI assistance.
Mistakes we found and fixed
Professional work means finding mistakes, not hiding them, and fixing them. Real examples:
- A wrong report about the company's status. A research agent said the company had no 2026 annual report and might be dissolved. We checked the official Florida record ourselves: the report was filed and the company was active. Since then, every decisive fact is checked twice, the second time in the official source.
- "Conversion" or "domestication"? We first thought the company had "converted" from California. Reading the official filing showed it was a domestication. Every document was corrected.
- A wrong section number of California corporate law, corrected by reading the statute.
- A legal route that only works in special cases. Under California law, a private mailbox can be the company's address only if the business is run from a home. That condition was added.
- A section that was referred to but never written. The Terms referred to a section on reseller codes that did not exist yet. It was added.
What you should honestly know
- We are not lawyers, and these documents have not yet been approved by one. They are careful, documented drafts for a lawyer, not a replacement for one.
- The work was done with AI assistance, using the method above. That is why there are so many rules for checking and recording sources.
- The yellow text still needs answers, from engineering, from management or from our lawyer.
- Some sources could not be opened; for example, the EU's official law website blocked automated access. These points are marked "to be verified" and are not stated as certain.
Everything is recorded
- Every change is in the change log and in version control (Git): what changed, when and why.
- Every document has a review history: who reviewed it, what they found and what was fixed.
- The research memos and final reviews are kept with the evidence.
