LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Disclaimer of warranties
Innovate Change makes the website and all information, functions and services available on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not promise that the content is accurate, complete, reliable or suitable for any purpose. To the extent permitted by law, we expressly disclaim every kind of warranty—statutory, implied or otherwise—-including any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. You rely on the website at your own risk.
Links, references and dealings with third parties
When the website links to, embeds or otherwise references any third-party site (for example, an online casino), that relationship is strictly between you and the third party. Innovate Change does not operate, control or endorse those external services, has no influence over their terms, and is not liable for any loss or damage that may arise once you leave our domain. We encourage you to read the relevant rules, bonus conditions and privacy statements of every third-party site you choose to visit.
Exclusion and limitation of liability
(a) Innovate Change, its owners, directors, employees and partners will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, consequential or special damages—including loss of profit, data, goodwill or business opportunities—that result from your use of (or inability to use) the website;
(b) We do not guarantee that the site will be uninterrupted, secure or free from errors, viruses or other harmful components. Occasional downtime, maintenance windows or inaccuracies may occur;
(c) If, despite the above, any court holds Innovate Change liable, our total aggregate liability for all claims in any twelve-month period will not exceed one hundred (100) US dollars (or the equivalent amount in your local currency);
(d) Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence or for fraud.
Right to amend these terms
We may update these Terms & Conditions at any time, without prior notice, by posting the revised text on the website. The “Last updated” date will change accordingly. By continuing to access or use the site after changes take effect, you accept the revised version. If you do not agree with an update, you should stop using the website.
GEO-RESTRICTIONS AND JURISDICTIONAL COMPLIANCE
Your responsibility for local law
You are solely responsible for determining whether it is lawful to access, view, or make use of the Website and any gambling-related information we publish from the place where you are located. By continuing to use the Website you confirm that (a) you are at least 18 years old (or such higher age as applies in your jurisdiction) and (b) your access does not violate any applicable law, regulation, or self-exclusion programme. If local rules change, you must stop using the Website immediately.
Countries or territories that may be blocked
Innovate Change monitors international gambling and advertising regulations and may, at its discretion, refuse or suspend access—either automatically through IP-based geolocation or by manual account action—to users in jurisdictions that prohibit or heavily regulate online gambling content. Current examples of territories with outright bans on online gambling include, without limitation, Brunei, China, Iran, North Korea, Qatar, Russia and the United Arab Emirates. The list of blocked locations is not exhaustive and can change without notice as laws evolve or as regulators issue new guidance. Attempts to bypass geo-blocks by VPN, proxy, mirror site or similar technology are prohibited and may result in immediate termination of access.
Where we do not actively block a jurisdiction, that omission should not be read as a representation that the Website complies with local law. We strongly recommend you seek independent advice if you are unsure about the legal status of online gambling information or advertising in your country.
Effect of geo-blocking on these Terms
If we restrict or withdraw your access because of geo-blocking, those provisions of the Terms that logically survive—such as intellectual-property obligations, limitation of liability and dispute-resolution clauses—remain enforceable. Any part of the Terms that proves unlawful in your jurisdiction will be severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remainder will continue in full force and effect.
Updates to geo-restriction policy
We may update this section to reflect new legal requirements or enforcement priorities. Changes take effect as soon as they are posted under the “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the Website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised geo-restriction policy.
