Terms of use

Who provides the service

avokata is provided by its operator, reachable at hello@avokata.com. During the beta we do not publish a company code, VAT number or registered office. When a registered legal entity is published, these terms will name it exactly as filed.

By using avokata you accept these terms and the documents they link to, including the privacy policy and the acceptable use policy.

No legal advice

avokata is a research tool for Lithuanian legal acts and court practice. It is not legal advice, not a substitute for reading the primary sources, and not an official position of any court or register. You remain responsible for your professional judgement and for verification.

Acceptable use

You must follow the acceptable use policy. In short: use avokata for good-faith professional research through the published tools; do not bypass quotas, scrape the corpus at scale, search for people, attack the service, or present its output as an official court position.

Beta and availability

avokata is in beta. Features, coverage and limits may change. We aim to keep the service available but do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation, or a published service level, during the beta.

Fees

Prices are shown on the site for transparency. Payments are not switched on: nothing is charged during the beta, and no payment obligation arises from viewing prices or locking a founding price. Before any charge we will update these terms and give notice. Refund terms will apply from that point.

Intellectual property

We and our licensors keep the rights in avokata, its documentation and marks. Statute and ruling texts in the corpus are public records; we claim no ownership of them. You keep the rights in content you enter (matter profiles, workflows). We may use aggregated, non-identifying usage metadata to run and improve the service.

Warranty

To the fullest extent the law allows, avokata is provided as is and as available, without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy or non-infringement. Nothing here excludes rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Limitation of liability

While payments are not switched on, our total liability to you for any claim arising from the service is €0, except where mandatory law requires otherwise. This section will be updated before payments start. We are not liable for decisions you or your organisation make using material retrieved through avokata.

Indemnity

You will indemnify the operator of avokata against claims, losses and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of avokata, a breach of these terms, or processing of data you have no right to process, except to the extent caused by our wilful misconduct.

Termination

You may stop using avokata at any time and delete your account through the service or by writing to privacy@avokata.com. We may suspend or end access if you materially breach these terms or the acceptable use policy, after notice where reasonable.

Governing law and courts

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protection in your country requires otherwise. The courts of Vilnius, Lithuania, have exclusive jurisdiction where the law permits.
