CSVORTEX.COM ("CSVORTEX.COM", "we", "us" or "our") provides its website at https://csvortex.com (the "Site") and related services (the "Service") to you, subject to the following Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you must stop using the Site and the Service. We may update these Terms from time to time — please review them whenever you access the Site. Continued use of the Service after any changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. Please read these Terms carefully — they contain important information about your legal rights, remedies, obligations and privacy.
Use of the Site and the Service
The information on this Site is provided "as is", without knowledge of your specific circumstances. The Site may become unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues or other reasons, and information shown on the Site may contain delays, omissions or inaccuracies. Nothing on the Site constitutes legal, accounting, tax or other professional advice. You may view, copy, download and print CSVORTEX.COM documents for personal, non-commercial purposes, provided that you do not modify them and do not remove copyright, trademark or other proprietary notices. No license or right to use the Site or its content is granted by implication, estoppel or otherwise, except as expressly permitted in these Terms.
To complete a payment transaction, the Seller transfers to the Platform title to the listed item, and the Platform acts as merchant of record for the Buyer in respect of the transaction. The Platform processes the transaction, fulfils the order, handles disputes, receives settlement from the payment institution and contacts the payment institution on behalf of the Seller. After the payment is processed, the item is delivered to the Buyer through the Platform. The Buyer's bank statement may reference both the Seller and the Platform.
Information published on the Site may reference products or services that are not available or approved by regulatory authorities in your country. Such references do not imply that CSVORTEX.COM intends to make those products or services available in your country.
You need a supported web browser to access the Site and use the Service. CSVORTEX.COM may discontinue support for any browser at any time; continued use of the Service may then require you to install a supported browser. Performance of the Service depends on your device and Internet connection.

Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership or joint venture between you and CSVORTEX.COM. CSVORTEX.COM's failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision shall not operate as a waiver of that right or provision.
