Terms of service
1. What legality is
legality is a Claude Code plugin and Model Context Protocol server. It does two things under Indian jurisdiction. It runs an AI-first analysis of contract text and returns structured risk findings. It schedules a 30-minute paid consultation with a Bar Council of India verified advocate via a Cal.com booking page at claudelaw.ai.
2. legality is not a law firm
legality is not a law firm. It does not provide legal advice. The AI analysis pipeline produces general legal information sourced from Indian statute and case law. Treat the output as a starting point, not a binding opinion. For legal advice on your matter, consult a licensed advocate.
3. Advocate consultations
Advocates listed in legality are independent Bar Council of India registered professionals. They are not employees or agents of legality. The advocate-client relationship is formed directly between you and the advocate at the time of consultation. legality acts as the introduction platform.
4. Fees and payment
legality charges you a platform service fee for AI analysis, advocate matching, scheduling, and platform infrastructure. The consultation fee is set by the advocate and is paid in full to the advocate, net of any tax deducted at source applicable under Indian law. We never deduct a referral commission from the advocate's side. Bar Council of India Rule 36 prohibits referral commissions; our model is a user-side service fee, not a referral cut.
For V0 the consultation fee is invoiced out-of-band (UPI / bank transfer / manual). Razorpay or equivalent payment rail layers on once probe demand validates.
5. Cancellation and refunds
You may cancel a scheduled consultation up to 24 hours before the slot. Refunds for cancellations within 24 hours are at the advocate's discretion. The platform service fee is non-refundable once the consultation is scheduled.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Submit contracts that contain illegal content, child sexual abuse material, or content that infringes third-party intellectual property in a manner you know to be willful.
- Misrepresent your identity, your relationship to the contract, or your jurisdiction.
- Use the platform to harass or threaten advocates listed on legality.
- Attempt to circumvent the platform service fee by inducing advocates to take consultations off-platform after first introduction. (Advocates are bound by their own Bar Council rules to maintain professional integrity.)
- Reverse engineer the platform, scrape advocate data, or use automated tools to extract value beyond personal use.
7. Recommendations and reputation
After a completed consultation you may submit a signed recommendation. Each (advocate, your government ID hash) pair may submit at most one recommendation. Recommendations are append-only and cryptographically signed by legality. Revocation occurs only by court order of competent jurisdiction.
8. Data handling
See the privacy policy at /privacy for what we collect, how it flows, and your rights under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
9. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Indian law, legality and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service or from the conduct of advocates listed on the platform. Total liability for any direct claim is limited to the platform service fees you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim.
The AI analysis output is general information. legality and its operators are not liable for decisions you make based on the output without consulting a licensed advocate.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify legality and its operators against claims arising from your misuse of the platform, your breach of these terms, or your conduct toward advocates or other users.
