2. Eligibility & Acceptable Use
You may use the site only for lawful, personal, and non‑commercial purposes. You agree not to: (a) copy, scrape, or index content at scale; (b) interfere with or disrupt the site; (c) probe or test the security of the site; (d) upload or transmit malware; (e) use the contact form or chatbot to send spam, abusive, or illegal content; or (f) misrepresent your identity or affiliation.
3. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise noted, the site’s text, graphics, logos, images, and layout are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and make personal, non‑commercial copies of pages for reference. Any other use (including reproduction, modification, distribution, or public display) requires prior written permission.
4. User Submissions
If you submit information (e.g., via the contact form), you represent that it is accurate and that you have the right to share it. You grant us a limited license to use the submission to respond to your inquiry and operate the site. Do not submit confidential or sensitive personal information that is not necessary for your inquiry.
5. AI Chatbot
The embedded chatbot is intended to assist with general information. It may generate responses that are incomplete or inaccurate. Do not rely on chatbot outputs as authoritative. You are responsible for evaluating any information before acting on it. Standard infrastructure logs (such as request timestamps) may be retained by our hosting provider as described in the Privacy Notice; we do not otherwise store or review chatbot conversation content.
6. Third‑Party Links & Tools
The site may link to third‑party pages (e.g., GitHub, LinkedIn) or use third‑party scripts (e.g., analytics, chatbot). We are not responsible for third‑party sites, content, or practices. Your use of third‑party services is governed by their terms and policies.

The site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non‑infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, secure, or error‑free.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or revenue, arising from or related to your use of the site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
9. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your misuse of the site or violation of these Terms.
10. Privacy & Cookies
Your use of the site is also subject to our Privacy Notice, which explains how we collect and process personal data, including through forms, analytics, and the chatbot. By using the site, you consent to the practices described there.
11. Changes
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date will reflect the most recent changes. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the revised Terms.
12. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of India and, to the extent permitted, the courts located in Bengaluru, Karnataka shall have exclusive jurisdiction. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
