Terms of Service

Last updated: May 24, 2026

Thank you for using TheLEICorp, an operating unit of The Reporting Company, LLC ("TheLEICorp," "we," "us," or "our"), located at 10115 Forest Avenue, Fairfax, VA 22032. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the LEI registration, renewal, and related services available through https://www.theleicorp.com/ (the "Service").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

1. Introduction

A. The Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) is a not-for-profit organization established by the Financial Stability Board to support the implementation and use of the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI).

B. GLEIF and its partnering Local Operating Units ("LOUs") operate a system of worldwide unique Legal Entity Identifiers and LEI repositories containing reference data about the relevant legal entities ("Legal Entity Reference Data" or "LE-RD").

C. TheLEICorp acts as a Registration Agent, facilitating the submission of LEI applications to accredited LOUs on behalf of applicants. TheLEICorp is not itself an LOU.

2. Definitions

"LEI" means a Legal Entity Identifier, a unique 20-character alphanumeric code assigned to a legal entity participating in financial transactions, as defined by ISO 17442.

"Registration Agent" means an entity authorized to facilitate the LEI application and renewal process on behalf of legal entities with an accredited LOU.

"LOU" means a Local Operating Unit accredited by GLEIF to issue and manage LEIs.

"LE-RD" means Legal Entity Reference Data, the information associated with an LEI in the Global LEI System, including entity name, registered address, and other identifying details.

"Service" means the LEI registration, renewal, transfer, and related services provided by TheLEICorp through its website.

"User," "You," "Your" refers to any individual or entity using the Service.

3. Service Description

3.1 TheLEICorp provides LEI registration and renewal services by acting as a Registration Agent. We facilitate the submission of your LEI application to an accredited LOU, which issues and maintains the LEI in the Global LEI System.

3.2 Our Service includes new LEI registration, annual renewal, multi-year renewal plans, and LEI transfers from other providers.

3.3 The issuance, maintenance, and management of LEIs within the Global LEI System is ultimately governed by GLEIF policies and the applicable LOU's terms and conditions.

4. User Obligations

4.1 By using the Service, you represent and warrant that:

4.2 You acknowledge that the accuracy of LE-RD associated with your LEI depends on the information you provide. TheLEICorp is not responsible for errors or omissions resulting from inaccurate information supplied by you.

4.3 You agree not to interfere with or disrupt the Service or its underlying systems, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service.

5. Fees and Payment

5.1 Fees for the Service are as displayed on our pricing page at the time of your order. All fees include applicable GLEIF and LOU charges.

5.2 Payment is due at the time of order submission. LEI processing will not commence until payment has been received in full.

5.3 TheLEICorp reserves the right to modify its fees at any time. Fee changes will not affect orders already submitted and paid for.

5.4 Refund policy. TheLEICorp provides a reimbursement process for legal entities within the first 60 days following the contract start date. Where a legal entity elects to cancel an LEI transfer by submitting a duly signed Transfer Objection Form to the sending LOU, TheLEICorp will reimburse fees paid for the transfer in accordance with this policy. Where an LEI cannot be issued or transferred for reasons attributable to TheLEICorp or to the partnering LEI Issuer, fees will be refunded in full. Once an LEI has been issued or renewed and is in good standing beyond the 60-day window, fees are non-refundable except as required by law. The refund period and conditions as detailed under the GLEIF RA Governance Framework will be honoured appropriately.

6. LEI Renewal and Lapse

6.1 LEIs require annual renewal to remain active in the Global LEI System. If you have purchased a multi-year plan, TheLEICorp will facilitate renewals for the duration of your plan.

6.2 It is your responsibility to ensure your LEI remains current. TheLEICorp will make reasonable efforts to send renewal reminders, but failure to receive a reminder does not relieve you of the obligation to renew.

6.3 A lapsed LEI may result in the entity being unable to execute certain financial transactions that require an active LEI. TheLEICorp is not liable for any consequences arising from a lapsed LEI.

6.4 Multi-year plans. Multi-year plans (3-year and 5-year) are billed in a single upfront payment covering the full plan term. TheLEICorp remits the corresponding annual fees to the partnering LEI Issuer (Ubisecure RapidLEI) on each anniversary of issuance for the duration of the plan, ensuring uninterrupted LEI maintenance. Cancellation of a multi-year plan follows the refund policy described in §5.4; remaining unpaid renewal years cannot be deferred to a different entity or transferred to a different LOU without re-pricing.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1 LEIs and LE-RD within the Global LEI System are provided under open data principles as established by GLEIF.

7.2 All content, design, text, graphics, and other materials on TheLEICorp website are the property of The Reporting Company, LLC or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

8.4 THE ISSUANCE OF LEIS IS BASED ON INFORMATION PROVIDED BY APPLICANTS AND VERIFIED BY THE APPLICABLE LOU. TheLEICorp DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY OF LE-RD OR THAT A PARTICULAR LEI APPLICATION WILL BE APPROVED.

9. Limitation of Liability
