1. About
1.1 These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of delinio.co and its pages (the “Site”), operated by DELINIO LLC (“Delinio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
1.2 These Terms of Use apply to the Site. They do not govern any services Delinio performs for a client, which are governed by a separate written agreement.
2. Acceptance
By accessing or using the Site, you accept these Terms of Use. If you do not accept them, please do not use the Site.
3. Function
3.1 Delinio does not provide legal services. Nothing on the Site constitutes legal advice, and nothing herein should be relied upon in place of counsel from a licensed attorney.
3.2 Using the Site, reading its articles, or submitting a form does not create an attorney-client relationship, and no such relationship exists between you and Delinio.
3.3 Site content is provided for general information. It may be updated, changed, or removed at any time without notice.
4. Ownership
4.1 The Site and its contents, including text, articles, images, illustrations, logos, marks, layout, and design, are owned by Delinio or used under license, and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.
4.2 No license is granted to you by implication or otherwise, except the limited permission stated in Section 5.
5. Permitted Use
You may view, browse, and print pages of the Site for your own personal or internal professional reference. Any other use requires our prior written permission.
6. Prohibited Use
You may not: (a) copy, republish, redistribute, sell, or license any part of the Site; (b) create derivative works from Site content; (c) use automated means, including crawlers, scrapers, bots, or harvesting tools, to access, collect, or copy Site content or data; (d) use Site content to develop, train, fine-tune, or evaluate any artificial intelligence model or dataset; (e) remove or obscure any notice of ownership, authorship, or reservation of rights; (f) interfere with the Site or attempt to gain unauthorized access to it or to its systems; or (g) use the Site for any unlawful purpose.
7. Agent Registry
The Site publishes an agent registry. That registry is governed by the Statement of Ownership published within it and by the Disclaimer published on the Site, both of which are incorporated here by reference. Those notices control as to the registry, and nothing in these Terms of Use limits or modifies either of them.
8. Disclosures
8.1 The Site provides a consultation form. Submitting it is a request for contact. It does not create an engagement, an attorney-client relationship, an obligation on Delinio to respond or to act, or any duty beyond those stated in our Privacy Policy.
8.2 Delinio accepts engagements from licensed attorneys and law firms, not from individual inventors. Submitting a form does not change that.
9. Privacy
Our collection and use of information through the Site is described in our Privacy Policy, published on the Site. That policy governs data. These Terms of Use do not modify it.
10. Third Parties
The Site may link to, or load resources from, third parties. We do not control those parties and are not responsible for their content, practices, or availability. Your use of them is governed by their own terms.
11. Warranty
The Site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and uninterrupted or error-free availability.
12. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Delinio is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your use of the Site.
13. Access
We may change, suspend, restrict, or discontinue the Site or any part of it, and may refuse or restrict access, at any time and without notice.
14. Governance
These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
15. Alterations
We may update these Terms of Use. The “Last updated” date above reflects the current version. Continued use of the Site after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms of Use.
16. Precedence
These Terms of Use supplement, and do not limit, the Privacy Policy, the Disclaimer, and the Statement of Ownership published on the Site. If you are also a Delinio client, any separate written agreement between us governs the services we perform for you, and nothing in these Terms of Use limits, reduces, or modifies that agreement.
