The Site is an online platform that allows Clients to book an appointment for their pets with the Vets. Vets may also, at their discretion and where allowed by law, prescribe any medication they deem to be medically appropriate based on the pet’s medical needs.

PetSeva’s Services do not include the provision by PetSeva of veterinary services, or any other professional services except laboratory and molecular diagnostic services. PetSeva is a technology service provider that provides content and facilitates access to others that may provide veterinary and diagnostics and other professional services. The Vets, that Clients may access via the Site are not employees or agents of PetSeva. PetSeva does not have any oversight of the care provided to Pets or Clients by Vets and other professionals of concerned services. Each Vet is an independent licensed practitioner who is solely responsible for any veterinary services provided to Pets and Clients, and is also solely responsible for obtaining Client’s informed consent, where required, to any veterinary treatment for Pets.

PetSeva is not a party to any agreement or other transaction between users of the Site. This is true even if the Site offers online appointment booking, facilitates payment, or provides other tools or services to allow users to communicate with each other and enter into agreements or other transactions with each other. As a result, any part of an actual or potential transaction between a Vet and a Client, including the quality, safety or legality of the veterinary services advertised, the truth or accuracy of the advertisements (including the content thereof or any reviews), the ability of Vets to provide veterinary services, prescribe medications or the ability of Clients to contract for such services are solely the responsibility of each user. You acknowledge and agree that you may be required to enter into one or more separate agreements, waivers or terms and conditions before obtaining veterinary services.

Users agree that they are responsible for, and agree to abide by, all laws, rules and regulations applicable to their use of the Site, their use of any tool, service or product offered on the Site and any transaction they enter into on the Site or in connection with their use of the Site. Vets further agree that they are responsible for and agree to abide by all laws, rules, ordinances, or regulations applicable to veterinary medicine and the conduct of their veterinary practice, including but not limited to any and all laws, rules, ordinances, regulations or other requirements relating to data and privacy, or license requirements, as applicable. Please be aware that, even though we are not a party to any transaction and assume no liability for legal or regulatory compliance pertaining to veterinary services listed on the Site, there may be circumstances where we are nevertheless legally obligated (as we may determine in our sole discretion) to provide information relating to a Vet’s listing in order to comply with requests from governmental bodies in relation to investigations, litigation or administrative proceedings, and we may choose to comply with such obligations in our sole discretion.

While we do take certain measures with a goal to assist users to avoid potentially fraudulent or other illegal activity of which we become aware, we assume no liability or obligation to take any such measures or actions. When we provide warnings or messages to users about any such activity, we do not warrant that such messages are accurate or that such messages will reach any or all users they should have reached in a timely manner or at all or that such messages or measures will prevent any harm or otherwise have any impact.

User verification on the Internet is difficult and we cannot, and do not assume any responsibility for, the confirmation of each user’s purported identity. We encourage you to communicate directly with a user through the tools available on the Site, though even this does not assure you of the identity of the person with which you are communicating. We further encourage you to take other reasonable measures to assure yourself of the other person’s identity.

There is no guarantee that you will be accepted as a registered user of the Services. We reserve the right to deny you access to the Services or any part thereof, in order to maintain or restore security or performance to the Services.

Users are permitted to have only one account per individual. We reserve the right to suspend any account for investigation with respect to compliance with these Terms and to terminate any account where we find that the account is being used in breach of these Terms.

Further, we may, without notice to you, suspend or cancel a Vet’s listing on the Service or Client account at any time if we suspect, in our sole discretion, that an Account is being used in an unauthorized or fraudulent manner. In addition, should we ask a user for proof of identification, and that identification is not submitted in the allotted time, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to cancel any transaction associated with that user.
