Terms of Service.

The terms that govern use of this website and its consulting services.

Template — review before publishing

These terms are a starting template with placeholder details. They should be reviewed and completed by the business owner — and ideally a qualified legal professional — before the website is published. Effective date: to be added.

The services

Makivo provides sourcing research and consulting: helping clients explore product opportunities, research potential manufacturers, prepare supplier communications, compare options, and plan next steps. Consulting deliverables are defined by the scope agreed with each client.

What we do not provide

We do not manufacture products, act as a supplier or factory, independently verify or audit factories, handle purchasing or payments, or provide shipping, logistics, or customs brokerage. We do not provide legal, certification, compliance, tax, or financial advice. Where such services are needed, qualified third-party providers should be engaged.

No guaranteed outcomes

Information on this website and in consulting deliverables is provided in good faith based on available sources. We do not guarantee supplier reliability, product quality, pricing, savings, delivery timelines, or manufacturing outcomes. Supplier information may change and may not be independently verified unless explicitly stated. Decisions — and their consequences — remain with the client.

Educational content

Articles and guides on this website are general educational material, not advice for your specific situation. Some content may be marked as draft pending review.

Intellectual property

The content, design, and branding of this website belong to Makivo unless otherwise stated, and may not be reproduced without permission.

Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse this website, including by submitting false or unlawful information through its forms or attempting to disrupt its operation.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Makivo is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from use of this website or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

Governing law

Governing law and jurisdiction: to be added by the business owner once the business’s place of registration is confirmed.

Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated as services develop. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date.
