To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not warrant that:

We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of third‑party sites or services. Visiting those sites is at your own risk, and you should review their terms and policies separately.
Third‑party links and content
Our website may link to or embed content from third‑party sites and services (for example, event platforms, social media, or video hosting).

Any reviews, recommendations, or opinions expressed are based on our experiences and perspectives and do not guarantee your results.
