The Company's Services are intended to be used as a tool for personal growth and inner calm. They are not intended to replace professional medical or psychological treatment or advice. Users are advised to seek professional help if they are dealing with serious mental health issues.

The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Services at any time, without prior notice, at its sole discretion. Any new features that augment or enhance the current Services shall also be subject to these Terms and Conditions.

The Company does not guarantee that the Services will meet the user's requirements or that the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free. The Company does not warrant the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services or the accuracy or reliability of any information obtained through the Services.

The user acknowledges and agrees that the Company may use third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to run the Services.

The user agrees to use the Services at their own risk and assumes full responsibility for understanding the Services and their potential impacts. The user agrees to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about themselves as prompted by the Service's registration form.
