Effective Date: 8 August 2026 • Last Updated: 8 August 2026
This Platform Agreement operates both as the Terms of Service and as the End User Licence Agreement (EULA) for Vakilpedia and every product offered under it. Our collection and processing of personal data is governed separately by the Privacy Policy.
This Agreement is made between Jasween Gujral, a sole proprietor carrying on business under the trading name “Vakilpedia”, having its registered office at 21 Delite Palladium, Civil Lines, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India (“Vakilpedia”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), and you, the person or firm accessing or using the Platform (“you”, “your”, or “User”).
Vakilpedia is a sole proprietorship. Accordingly, the contracting party is the proprietor, and references to Vakilpedia in this Agreement are references to the proprietor trading under that name.
By accessing, registering for, or using any part of the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, you must not use the Platform.
If you accept this Agreement on behalf of a firm, chambers, company, or other organisation, you represent that you are authorised to bind that entity, and “you” includes that entity.
This Agreement governs your use of the entire Platform. It applies to every Product listed above and automatically extends to any Product we introduce in the future, unless that Product is expressly published with its own supplemental terms.
Where supplemental terms exist for a specific Product, they apply in addition to this Agreement. In the event of conflict, the supplemental terms prevail for that Product only.
You must be at least 18 years of age and competent to contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872.
Certain Products are intended exclusively for advocates, law firms, legal professionals, and their authorised staff. You are responsible for ensuring that your use complies with your professional and regulatory obligations, including those imposed by the Bar Council of India.
Some Products require an account. Account creation may be verified by WhatsApp or another verification method we adopt.
You agree to:
You must not share, sell, or transfer your account, and you must not permit access by any person not authorised by you.
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform for your own professional or personal legal purposes.
Where a Product is made available as downloadable or installable software, or as a progressive web application, this Agreement operates as the End User Licence Agreement for that software. The licence is to use the software as intended; it is not a sale, and no ownership passes to you.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
You must not:
The Platform is a set of productivity and information tools. Nothing on the Platform constitutes legal advice, legal representation, or an advocate–client relationship between you and Vakilpedia.
Statutory text, section mappings, cause lists, court information, templates, and generated drafts are provided for convenience and must be independently verified before being relied upon or filed.
You remain solely responsible for the accuracy of your filings, adherence to limitation periods and court deadlines, the protection of client confidentiality, and compliance with your professional obligations.
You retain all ownership of your User Content. We claim no ownership over your documents, case files, drafts, or client information.
You grant us only the limited licence necessary to host, store, transmit, back up, display, and process User Content for the purpose of operating the Platform and providing the Products you have requested. This licence exists solely to run the service and ends when the content is deleted, save for backups retained for a limited period and records we must keep under Applicable Law.
You represent that you have the right to submit your User Content and that doing so does not breach any confidentiality obligation, privilege, or third-party right.
We do not use your User Content or Firm Workspace Data to train Vakilpedia’s own artificial intelligence models, nor do we make it available to any third party for the training of general-purpose artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
Where a Product uses AI to assist with research, drafting, or summarisation, your content may be transmitted to a model provider strictly for the purpose of generating your requested output. We will not adopt any practice of training general-purpose models on your content without amending this Agreement and giving notice under Clause 22.
AI-generated output:
You remain the author of, and responsible for, any document you file.
Firm Workspace Data is owned and controlled by the Firm, subject to Applicable Law.
Where a workspace has multiple members, the Firm determines who may access, export, or delete Firm Workspace Data, and may exercise administrative rights over member accounts within that workspace, including revoking access when a member leaves.
We act on the instructions of the Firm in respect of Firm Workspace Data. Disputes between a Firm and its members regarding access to or ownership of that data must be resolved between them; we are not the arbiter of such disputes and may maintain the status quo pending their resolution or a competent order.
A VakilCard profile is public by default. Its purpose is to be shared with clients and the public, and it is intended to be reachable by anyone holding the link, and indexable by search engines.
You should therefore publish on a VakilCard only such information as you are content to make publicly available. Do not place client-confidential or privileged information on a VakilCard.
You are responsible for ensuring that the contents of your VakilCard, including any description of your practice, comply with the Bar Council of India Rules on advertising and solicitation as applicable to you.
You may choose to connect third-party services to your account. Our current Connected Services are Google Calendar, Google Drive, and WhatsApp.
When you connect a service:
Our use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Connected Services are operated by third parties under their own terms. We are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, or acts.
Certain Products monitor publicly available court information and display it to you. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of any court, tribunal, or government authority.
We cannot guarantee the availability, timeliness, or accuracy of third-party court systems, and we are not liable for delays or omissions caused by changes to those systems, network failures, or events beyond our control. You must independently verify all listings, serials, and hearing dates.
Some Products are free; others are offered on paid subscriptions or on a credit basis. Applicable charges and the billing period are displayed before you purchase.
Payments are processed by authorised third-party payment providers, currently Razorpay and PayU. We do not store your complete card details; those are handled by the payment provider under its own terms and security standards.
Fees are exclusive of taxes unless stated otherwise, and you are responsible for any applicable taxes. Failure to pay may result in suspension of paid features.
Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current price, unless cancelled before the renewal date. Where you have authorised a recurring mandate, the payment provider will attempt collection on that date.
You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation stops future renewals; it takes effect at the end of the current paid period, and you retain access until then.
Cancellation alone does not entitle you to a refund of the current period, except as provided in Clause 17.
If you cancel a paid subscription within seven (7) days of the payment concerned, you may request a partial refund calculated on a pro-rata basis for the unused days of that billing period.
The refund is the amount paid for the billing period, multiplied by the number of unused days remaining in that period, divided by the total number of days in that period. Refunds are made to the original payment method through the original payment provider.
Full details, exclusions, and the request procedure are set out in the Refund Policy, which forms part of this Agreement.
The Platform, and all software, source code, trademarks, branding, designs, interfaces, documentation, and content forming part of it, remain the exclusive property of Vakilpedia or its licensors.
“Vakilpedia”, “CaseLinx”, “VakilCard”, “CourtQue”, “BareLEX”, “EvidenceHash”, “LexDraft”, and “Vakilnama”, together with associated logos, are marks of Vakilpedia. You may not use them without our prior written consent.
This Agreement transfers no ownership in the Platform to you. Bare statutory text is in the public domain; our compilation, mapping, annotation, and presentation of it are not.
You must not use the Platform to:
We aim for continuous availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. Maintenance, updates, third-party failures, network outages, or force majeure events may affect availability.
We may add, modify, or discontinue Products or features. Where we discontinue a paid Product entirely, we will give reasonable notice and, where you have paid for a period you can no longer use, a pro-rata refund for the unused portion.
The Platform is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, we disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, nor for loss of profit, loss of business, loss of data, or loss of opportunity, arising from your use of the Platform.
Our aggregate liability for any and all claims shall not exceed the total amount actually paid by you to us for the relevant Product during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Vakilpedia, its proprietor, employees, contractors, and licensors from any claim, demand, loss, or expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your User Content, your use of the Platform, your breach of this Agreement, or your breach of any Applicable Law or professional obligation.
We may suspend or terminate access where:
You may stop using the Platform and close your account at any time.
On termination, your licence ends immediately. You may export your User Content for a reasonable period before deletion, except where retention is required by Applicable Law. Clauses 9, 10, 18, 21, 22, 24, and 25 survive termination.
Our collection, use, and protection of personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy, which forms part of this Agreement.
We are committed to handling personal data in line with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025. Those Rules commence in phases, and several substantive obligations are not yet in force. Where we adopt such practices ahead of their commencement, we do so voluntarily, and this Agreement will be updated as further provisions take effect.
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India.
Subject to Applicable Law, the courts at Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or your use of the Platform.
We may amend this Agreement from time to time. The Effective Date at the top records the current version.
Material changes will be published on the Platform and, where they significantly affect your rights, notified to you. Continued use after such changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Agreement.
