1. Acceptance of Terms

By registering for, accessing, or using PractisBase ("The Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you are entering into this agreement on behalf of a clinic, firm, or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity.

2. No Professional Advice

The Service provides administrative, templating, and data management tools only. PractisBase does not provide medical, architectural, engineering, financial, or legal advice. The User assumes full, exclusive liability for all clinical diagnoses, structural calculations, certifications, prescriptions, and professional actions facilitated through The Service. The Service is not a substitute for professional judgment.

3. Tax & Accounting Disclaimers

While The Service provides ledger management, VAT exports, and tax form automation (such as the TA22), PractisBase is not an accounting firm or a licensed tax advisor. The User assumes sole responsibility for the accuracy of all financial data, tax calculations, omissions, and submissions. The Service does not replace the need for professional financial counsel. You are strictly advised to consult a certified public accountant (CPA) or recognized tax advisor prior to submitting any tax or VAT returns to the Commissioner for Revenue.

4. Data Processing & GDPR Compliance

In accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act (Cap. 586 of the Laws of Malta), the User acts as the exclusive "Data Controller" for all client and patient information uploaded. PractisBase acts solely as the "Data Processor." We claim no ownership over your client data. You warrant that you have obtained all necessary legal consents from your clients/patients to store their sensitive data digitally within The Service.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, PractisBase, its founders, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation: loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, malpractice claims, tax penalties, or regulatory fines. In no event shall our aggregate liability exceed the total amounts paid by you to PractisBase in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you are utilizing the "Free Tier", our total liability is limited to zero Euros (€0.00).

6. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PractisBase and its employees from and against any claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from: (a) your use of and access to The Service; (b) your violation of any term of this Agreement; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any privacy or intellectual property right; or (d) any claim that your content, professional actions, or financial submissions caused damage to a third party or resulted in regulatory action.

7. Service Availability & Data Backups

The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. While we utilize enterprise-grade infrastructure, we do not guarantee absolute immunity from data loss. Users are provided with a "Data Export" tool and are strictly required to maintain their own independent backups of their client and financial records. Please note: The standard export tool downloads text and ledger data only; it does not include physical file uploads (e.g., PDFs, receipt images, or architectural documents) stored in the cloud.

8. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Malta, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Malta.
