Privacy Policy
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SITE
-
Welcome to
!
In this agreement, we have referred to the MEDIATORSPOST.com as the "MEDIATORSPOST” and “service", to you as the "user" and to our agreement as the "agreement".
-
only provides a medium for interaction:
All Mediators at MediatorsPost follow the schedule of fees that are prescribed by the Indian Institute of Mediation. The process is costs effective and it generally takes much less time than moving a case through standard legal channels. While a case in the hands of a lawyer or a court may take months or years to resolve, mediation usually achieves a resolution in a matter of hours. Taking less time means expending less money on hourly fees and costs. Even if mediation fails, the process may have narrowed the issues, which will ultimately reduce costs.
In order to provide an optimal forum for mediators and clients, MediatorsPost does not involve itself in the agreements between mediators and clients or the actual mediation proceeding. Therefore, we cannot ensure the results of the proceedings. The user, and not MediatorsPost, is solely responsible for assessing the integrity, honesty, and trustworthiness of all persons with whom the user communicates on this service.
-
a. Disclaimer of mediator-client relationship:
MediatorsPost is not an agent of any particular mediator. It only facilitates the communication of mediators and potential clients. Any electronic communication sent to MediatorsPostalone will not create a mediator-client relationship between the user and MediatorsPost, such being expressly denied.
-
b. MediatorsPost does not promote any User:
MediatorsPost seeks to help every needy disputant find a mediator best suited to his/her needs. MediatorsPost is not intended to be a source of advertising or solicitation and the contents of the website should not be construed as legal advice. MediatorsPost may recommend a subscribing mediator if he matches a user’s requirements, but not otherwise. Transmission, receipt or use of MediatorsPost does not constitute or create a mediator-client relationship. No recipients of content from this website should act, or refrain from acting, based upon any or all of the contents of this site. We welcome the user to study the profiles of mediators independently and make an informed choice.Specifically, MediatorsPost does not provide any avenue for solicitation: MediatorsPost hides information about clients from mediators until the client communicates with the mediator directly or online. Therefore, the mediator is not allowed to view private information about potential clients.
-
c. MediatorsPost does not provide Legal Advice:
The information provided in MediatorsPost does not amount to legal advice, such merely being commonly asked queries about mediation and mediation process. Users are advised to consult a lawyer if they need specialized legal advice.
-
d. Disclaimer of representations by users:
MediatorsPost makes no representation, guarantee, or warranty (express or implied) as to the legal ability, competence, or quality of representation which may be provided by any of the mediators listed through this site or any affiliate thereof.

i. MediatorsPost provides potential clients with a forum whereby people who need mediation services are connected to providers of it. MediatorsPost is a resource for informational purposes and is intended, but not promised or guaranteed to be correct, complete, and up-to-date. The accuracy, completeness or adequacy of MediatorsPost is not warranted or guaranteed. MediatorsPost further assumes no liability for the interpretation and/or use of the information contained on this website. MediatorsPost is not responsible for, and makes no representations or warranties about the contents of websites to which links may be provided from this website.
-

-
iii. MediatorsPost makes every effort to verify that mediators who subscribe to the service are certified and hold a good reputation in society. However, MediatorsPost cannot track, verify, or monitor the standing of each mediator using the Service. Therefore, MediatorsPost makes no representation regarding the status, standing or ability of any mediator that is listed on the site.
-
iv. Users are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any mediator being considered. The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a mediator are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely on claims of expertise, or on the cost of rendering the requested services./li>
-
v. MediatorsPost is not responsible for, and in no way endorses any description or indication of specialization or limitation of practice by a mediator. Efforts will be made to avoid false information, but please be aware that no agency or board may have certified such mediator as a specialist or expert in any indicated field of practice. In addition, a mediator claiming specialization is not necessarily any more competent than other mediator. It is up to the user to question the mediators on the factual basis of any statement they make, ask for the names of the certifying agencies, and verify all information.
-
vi. Users are encouraged to use caution when reviewing any information submitted by mediators and other parties. Although MediatorsPost requires mediators to comply with all regulations governing mediator conduct, it is impossible for MediatorsPost to monitor mediators' integrity.
-
vii. MediatorsPost in no way endorses the content or legality of any offers, statements, or promises made by mediators or any other parties, on or off this site.

MediatorsPost disclaims all responsibility for this content. If any offending material is brought to the notice of MediatorsPost, it will be deleted as soon as is possible. Whether such material is indeed offending will be finally left to the discretion of MediatorsPost.

Conflicts Checks:
The user understands that a mediator will not be able to and will not perform a check for conflicts of interest between the user and other clients of the registered lawyer prior to responding to a request. Conflict checks require the user to provide their name and contact information and the identity of any affiliated entities, opposing individuals and entities, and such other information as a mediator may require. Conflict checks by a mediator who obtains information from the user through this service are not possible since submissions by the user to the subscribing mediator are not sufficient to enable the subscribing mediator to conduct such a check.

-
Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability:
A great danger for MediatorsPost, and for all operators of online systems, is that we might be held accountable for the wrongful actions of our users. If one user libels another user, the injured user might blame us, even though the first user was really at fault. If a user uploads a program with a computer virus, and the other users' computers are damaged, we might be blamed even though a user left the virus on our System. If a user transmits illegal or improper information to another user, we might be blamed even though we did nothing more than unknowingly carry the message from one user to another. Accordingly, we need all users to accept responsibility for their own acts, and to accept that an act by another user that damages them must not be blamed on us, but only on the other user.
Although it is the goal of MediatorsPost to provide users with reliable and quality systems, we may make mistakes or experience system failure from time to time. Such problems are inevitable in operating a system of this size. We would not be able to make this system available to users if we had to accept blame or financial liability for any usability problems, system failures or errors, or mistakes or damages of any kind. In order to continue offering and improving our service, MediatorsPost must deny any warranties on this service and state that our liability for any problems connected with the use of our system is strictly limited.
-
Disclaimer of Warranties:
The user expressly agrees that use of the service is at the user's sole risk. The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. MediatorsPost expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. MediatorsPost makes no warranty that the service will meet a user's requirements, that the service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; nor does MediatorsPost make any warranty as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the service or as to the accuracy or reliability of any information obtained through the service or that defects in the software will be corrected. MediatorsPost makes no warranty regarding any goods or services purchased or information obtained through the service or any transactions entered into through the service.
No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by the User from MediatorsPost shall create any warranty not expressly stated herein.
-
Limitation of Liability:
The user agrees that MediatorsPost shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages resulting from the use or the inability to use the service or for the cost of procurement of substitute goods and services or resulting from any goods or services purchased or obtained or messages received or transactions entered into through or from the service or resulting from unauthorized access to or alteration of user's transmissions or data, including, but not limited to damages for loss of profits, use, data or other intangibles, even if MediatorsPost has been advised of the possibility of such damages. The user further agrees that MediatorsPost shall not be liable for any damages arising from interruption, suspension or termination of service, including, but not limited to direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, whether or not such interruption, suspension or termination was justified, negligent, intentional or inadvertent.
-
Arbitration:
