The platform functions round the clock. Yet, Epifi shall not remain accountable for service outages during specific scenarios. Our reasons range from natural disasters to your phone getting stolen and everything in between.

Epifi and AMC shall not be responsible for any failure on the user’s part to utilise the services if they are not within the geographical range within which the services are offered.

Indemnity 🔗

If we were in kindergarten, this is the part where we tell you, ’Told you so!’.
Forced analogy aside, the long sentence below states that you agree to not hold us liable in a court of law.
Mostly if – something goes wrong because of your actions on our App or Platform.

• In consideration of the company providing the services, you agree to indemnify, defend, save, keep indemnified and hold harmless the company (including its affiliates) from (and against) all actions, claims, demands, proceedings, loss, damages, costs, charges and expenses that the company may incur (including reasonable attorney fees, expenses, and other charges), at any time, as a consequence of your acting on or omitting or refusing to act on any instruction(s) given by the company for the use of the services.

Governing Law 📜

Details of the legal system we abide by – this is implied because we are an Indian organisation, but it’s always best to specifically mention things.

• These T&Cs and the use of our company’s services shall be governed by the laws of the Republic of India. The mere fact that a user can access the services in a country other than India shall not be interpreted to imply that the laws of the said country govern these T&Cs or the services.

Confidentiality 🔒

Never disclose private information that you come across while using our platform; it reflects poorly on all of us. Unless, of course, it’s because of something drastic like a court order!
The user agrees not to directly or indirectly disclose or attempt to use or personally benefit from any non-public information that they may learn on the platform or through our services and hold such non-public information strictly on a confidential basis. This obligation shall continue until the non-public information becomes publicly known — if a user is compelled by a court order or any other legal/statutory authority to divulge the company’s confidential information (or the services). In that case, the user agrees to notify and cooperate with the company promptly and diligently in protecting such data to the extent possible under applicable.

The company would access, preserve, and disclose the user’s information if required to do so by law, or if the company believes (in good faith) that it is reasonably necessary in order to:

a. respond to claims asserted against the company or to comply with a legal process;

b. prevent fraud, risk assessment, investigation, user and platform support, product development, debugging purposes and protecting the rights, property, or safety of the company (and its affiliates), its users, or members of the public.

Communication from Epifi 📞

Occasionally, we will contact you to convey critical information. No, we promise not to blitzkrieg your device with notifications. We’ll reach out only when essential. This section is regarding that.
The user agrees to receive alerts, notifications, offers, discounts, and other such general communication messages via text messages, WhatsApp messages, push notifications, by emails, or various other modes of communication as indicated by Epifi, as a part of the user’s use of the services.
The user shall not hold the company liable for any loss, damages, claim, or expense, including legal costs, incurred or suffered by the user on account of such facility.
The user shall immediately inform the company if the user observes any error in the information provided in the alert. Subsequently, we will make the best possible efforts to rectify the error as early as possible.

Fees 💸

We believe in complete transparency. There are no hidden fees on our platform. Our nominal charges, wherever specified, are for the services. Nevertheless, we do have specific terms regarding them.
The company may, if required by law, change any fee or charge or institute new fees. The user agrees to pay all charges so levied – provided there is an intimation of the prices before the change.
The company would determine the fee to be paid by a user in its sole discretion, and any fees charged will be inclusive of all applicable taxes, which the user will be liable to pay.

Assignment ✅

After you sign up to use our services, you are legally bound to comply with our T&C's.

• You will not assign or transfer any rights, obligations, or privileges you have under these T&Cs without the prior written consent of Epifi. These T&Cs are binding on your valid successors and permitted assigns. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this clause will be deemed void.
