These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website www.startupandall.com (the “Website”) and any services availed through it (the “Services”). By accessing or using the Website or availing any Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy.

2. Nature of Our Services — Important Disclaimer

Startup and All is a private legal-tech and business facilitation platform.

Where a task is reserved by law for a regulated professional — such as audits, certifications and attestations (including generation of UDIN), statutory representation, or appearing before an authority — that part of the work is performed by an independent, duly qualified professional (such as a practising Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, advocate or registered agent) engaged for your matter, who is solely responsible for that professional work.
