B. The Website


5. Expertiz is a Venue; Third-Party ContentThe Expertiz Site is a venue for informational and educational purposes, owned and operated by Expertiz, that exists solely to broker relationships between Experts and potential Founders of those Experts who are interested in purchasing their Expert services. Expertiz is not in the business of providing or selling information or education that is within any Expert’s area of Expertise. Users of the Site, not Expertiz, provide the content in Posts (defined below). The Experts determine which questions to answer; Experts are not employees or agents of Expertiz but are independent service providers using the Site to sell their Expert knowledge to Founders and, as such, together with Founders, are simply Users of the Site. Expertiz is not involved in the conversations between Founders and Experts. You understand and acknowledge that Expertiz cannot and does not edit, modify, filter, screen, monitor, endorse or guarantee the content of calls. Expertiz shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of Experts, content in Posts or the ability of Experts to answer questions. We cannot ensure that an Expert will complete a transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Expertiz reserves the right, but is not obligated, to refuse to post or to remove any content and/or remove any User’s access to the Site.
6. Posts Are Not Private or Confidential; AnonymityThe Site and app are an Internet-based forum. Information and materials submitted in the content of your calls, questions, answers, requests for information, responses, profiles, signatures, qualifications, comments, and posts in the Expert Forum and other places where Users communicate on the Site (collectively "Posts") is not private or confidential, nor is it protected by attorney-client, doctor-patient, or any other privilege, and it may be read, collected, and used by others. For example, search engines may index your calls, questions, answers, and other Posts to allow them to appear in search engine results (e.g. if someone does a search on google.com or another search engine, your questions, answers, and other Posts on expertiz.app that relate to the search may appear in the search results list).If you would like to keep your call private from other members, please request to do so via the Expertiz site or app.
7. Verification; No Reliance on the Term “Expert”Every Expert on the Site has had at least one credential relevant to the category in which they are answering questions verified by a third-party verification service and/or claimed to be an expert, unless the Expert is answering questions in a category that is still being tested by Expertiz in "Beta". Other information about an Expert, not shown as verified, has been provided by the Expert but has not been verified. Use of the term "Expert" by Expertiz and on the Site is only meant to describe Users who answer questions on the Site, and not to guarantee any particular level of expertise of these Experts. The results of the verifications are only as accurate as the information provided to and by the experts themselves. Expertiz makes effort to verify, but cannot warrant or guarantee an Expert's purported identity; user identification on the Internet is difficult. For these reasons, Expertiz cannot and does not represent, warrant or guarantee the truthfulness or accuracy of the credentials or identities of Users and information provided by Users including Experts. You acknowledge that Expertiz will not be liable for any loss or damages caused by your reliance on any information or content contained in Posts.
8. Information Not Advice; No Client-Professional Relationship
Answers of Experts on the Site or app are provided by Experts and are to be used by Founders for general information purposes only, not as a substitute for in-person evaluation or specific professional (medical, legal, veterinary, tax, financial, etc.) advice. For example, Experts in the Legal category will provide only general information about the law, and will not provide legal advice nor propose a specific course of action for a Founder. By answering questions, Experts do not intend to form, and do not form attorney-client or doctor-patient relationships with Users of the Site. The laws, regulations, other governing authorities, standards, practices and procedures that apply to your particular question may differ depending on your location and information typically discovered through in-person evaluations or visits. Experts in some categories may be licensed, certified, educated, employed by or have experience in only particular jurisdictions.No professional-client relationships shall be formed on the Site. Communications on this Site are not confidential and shall not be the subject of any associated privileges. Communications on this Site are limited, as described above, do not involve in-person evaluations or visits, and do not include safeguards and procedures typical of in-person evaluations and visits. Before you can interact with an Expert, you will be required to agree to a Disclaimer reminding you of these and other important provisions of the Terms.
