Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using this site
I. WELCOME TO Zolvit.COM!
Since we will not be meeting face to face, it is important to set out the terms of the agreement clearly in advance.
If you have any queries about Zolvit, please do not hesitate to contact us. In this agreement, we have referred to the Zolvit service as the "service", to you as the "user" and to our agreement as the "agreement". The term “Advisor” in this agreement shall mean advocates/ advisors, Chartered Accountants and Company Secretary.
If you wish to use our “Common Needs” feature, you affirm that you are more than 18 years of age and are fully able and competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties consequent to the creation of the documents, and are aware of the same. Kindly call us for further assistance.
II. Zolvit.COM ONLY PROVIDES A MEDIUM FOR INTERACTION
Zolvit is an internet portal that facilitates communication between advisors and potential users of professional services. Zolvit acts as a venue for providers and consumers of professional services to exchange information with the goal of eventually forming a professional relationship. Zolvit does not guarantee that users will successfully find an Advisor through this system. Zolvit takes no position and offers no opinion on when or if an Advisor-client relationship has been formed.
In order to provide an optimal forum for advisors and clients, Zolvit does not involve itself in the agreements between Advisors and clients or the actual representation of clients. Therefore, we cannot ensure the completion of the agreement or the integrity of either party. The user, and not Zolvit, is solely responsible for assessing the integrity, honesty, and trustworthiness of all persons with whom the user communicates on this service. Each advisor have their own terms and conditions and users are advised to go through the same before engaging with such advisors.
(a) Disclaimer of advisor-client relationship
Zolvit is not an agent of the Advsiors. It only facilitates the communication of advisors and potential clients. Any electronic communication sent to Zolvit alone will not create a advisor-client relationship between the user and Zolvit, such being expressly denied.
(b) Zolvit does not promote any User.
Zolvit seeks to help every needy litigant find advisors best suited to his/her needs. Zolvit is not intended to be a source of advertising or solicitation and the contents of the website should not be construed as professional advice. Zolvit may recommend subscribing advisors if they match a user’s requirements, but not otherwise. Transmission, receipt or use of Zolvit does not constitute or create an advisor-client relationship. No recipients of content from this website should act, or refrain from acting, based upon any or all of the contents of this site. We welcome the user to study the profiles of advisors independently and make an informed choice.
(c) Specifically, Zolvit does not provide any avenue for solicitation
Zolvit hides information about clients from advisors until the client communicates with the advisors directly or online. Therefore, the advisors are not allowed to view private information about potential clients.
(d) Zolvit does not provide professional Advice
Zolvit ‘Common Needs’ feature uses only user supplied content to produce basic documents. The information provided in the ‘FAQs’ section also does not amount to professional advice, such merely being commonly asked queries about Will making, Lease Agreement drafting, Cheque Dishonour notices, Money recovery notices, Power of Attorney to collect rent and other documents which may be added from time to time. Users are advised to consult advisors if they need specialized guidance on any of these documents.
(e) 'Common Needs'- Resale of Forms Prohibited
Zolvit grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use our “Common Needs” feature for your own personal use, or if you are an attorney or professional, for your client. Except as otherwise provided, you acknowledge and agree that you have no right to modify, edit, copy, reproduce, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, alter, enhance or in any way exploit any of the Forms in any manner, except for modifications in filling out the Forms for your authorized use.
By ordering a document from Zolvit, you agree that the document you purchase may only be used by you for your personal or business use or used by you in connection with your client and may not be sold or redistributed without the express written consent of Zolvit.

XXII. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
A great danger for Zolvit, and for all operators of online systems, is that we might be held accountable for the wrongful actions of our users. If one user libels another user, the injured user might blame us, even though the first user was really at fault. If a user uploads a program with a computer virus, and the other users' computers are damaged, we might be blamed even though a user left the virus on our System. If a user transmits illegal or improper information to another user, we might be blamed even though we did nothing more than unknowingly carry the message from one user to another. Accordingly, we need all users to accept responsibility for their own acts, and to accept that an act by another user that damages them must not be blamed on us, but only on the other user.
Although it is the goal of Zolvit to provide users with reliable and quality systems, we may make mistakes or experience system failure from time to time. Such problems are inevitable in operating a system of this size. We would not be able to make this system available to users if we had to accept blame or financial liability for any usability problems, system failures or errors, or mistakes or damages of any kind. In order to continue offering and improving our service, Zolvit must deny any warranties on this service and state that our liability for any problems connected with the use of our system is strictly limited.
These needs are accomplished by the following disclaimers:
(a) Disclaimer of Warranties
The user expressly agrees that use of the service is at the user's sole risk. The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. Zolvit expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Zolvit makes no warranty that the service will meet a user's requirements, that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; nor does Zolvit make any warranty as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the service or as to the accuracy or reliability of any information obtained through the service or that defects in the software will be corrected.

The user further agrees that Zolvit shall not be liable for any damages arising from interruption, suspension or termination of service, including, but not limited to direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, whether or not such interruption, suspension or termination was justified, negligent, intentional or inadvertent.
XXIII. ARBITRATION

Any such controversy or claim shall be arbitrated on an individual basis, and shall not be consolidated in any arbitration with any claim or controversy of any other party.
