Nothing in these Terms grants you any ownership rights in the Site or its content.

The materials and information on this Site are provided for general informational and educational purposes only. They do not constitute legal, regulatory, or professional advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for tailored advice from qualified advisers.

Accessing or using this Site does not create a consulting or client relationship between you and CSHR. A consulting relationship is formed only when a written agreement is executed between you and CSHR.

The Site may contain links to third‑party websites or resources that are not owned or controlled by CSHR. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third‑party sites and do not endorse or make any representations about them.

Your use of third‑party sites is at your own risk and subject to the terms and policies of those sites.

The Site and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non‑infringement.

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, or error‑free, or that any defects will be corrected.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CSHR and its members, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or these Terms, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to your use of the Site will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100). Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CSHR and its members, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Site or any violation of these Terms.

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or your use of the Site are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to conflict‑of‑laws rules.

If you are a consumer resident in the EU or UK, you may also benefit from any mandatory provisions of the laws of your country of residence, and you may have the right to bring proceedings in your local courts.

We may modify these Terms from time to time, for example to reflect changes in our services, business, or legal requirements. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when these Terms were last revised.

If we make material changes, we may provide additional notice (such as by posting a prominent notice on the Site). Your continued use of the Site after any changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
