This section does not reduce any mandatory consumer rights available to you.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for losses or claims arising directly from material you unlawfully supply, your infringement of another person’s rights, or your prohibited use of our services.
This provision will not apply to the extent that a loss was caused by our own breach, negligence, or unlawful conduct.
Neither party will be responsible for delay or failure caused by circumstances beyond reasonable control, including natural disasters, widespread internet or power failures, government restrictions, civil disruption, serious illness, cyber incidents, or failures of essential third-party services.

These Terms and Conditions, the accepted quotation, the Privacy Policy, the Refund and Revision Policy, and any expressly incorporated service terms form the agreement between you and The Academic Consultancy.
If there is a conflict, the specific written terms in an accepted quotation will take priority for that project, followed by these Terms and Conditions.
If any provision is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply.
A delay in enforcing a right does not mean that the right has been waived.
