2. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing, registering with, submitting information to, or otherwise using Celovest, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and any applicable policies referenced within them.

Celovest reserves the right to amend, update, or replace these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms may be published on the website, and continued use of the Services after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

3. User Eligibility

Users must provide accurate and truthful information when using Celovest.

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services complies with all laws and regulations applicable to you.

Celovest may refuse registration, suspend an account, or restrict access where information appears inaccurate, misleading, fraudulent, or otherwise inappropriate.

  • Providing accurate information
  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
  • Preventing unauthorized access to your account
  • Updating information when necessary

You must notify Celovest if you believe your account has been accessed or used without authorization.

5. Property Listings

Property information displayed on Celovest may be provided by property owners, agents, representatives, developers, or other third parties.

Such information may include:

  • Property location
  • Land extent
  • Ownership information
  • Asking price
  • Photographs and videos
  • Property descriptions
  • Development potential
  • Financial information
  • Legal or planning information

Although Celovest may conduct verification or screening procedures for selected listings, Celovest does not guarantee that every piece of information supplied by a third party is complete, accurate, current, or error-free.

Users should independently verify all material information before entering into any transaction.

6. Property Verification

Where Celovest identifies a listing as “Verified”, “Reviewed”, or uses similar terminology, such designation refers only to the specific verification or screening process undertaken by Celovest.

Such verification does not constitute a guarantee of:

  • Legal title
  • Ownership
  • Property valuation
  • Planning permission
  • Development approval
  • Financial performance
  • Investment returns
  • Future market value

Users should obtain independent legal, financial, valuation, surveying, and other professional advice where appropriate.

7. Investment Opportunities

Celovest may present businesses, projects, properties, and other opportunities that may be suitable for potential investment.

Information relating to an investment opportunity may include estimates, projections, business plans, expected returns, market assumptions, or other forward-looking information.

Such information is provided for informational and evaluation purposes only and does not constitute a guarantee of future performance or investment return.

Investment involves risk. Users are responsible for conducting their own due diligence and obtaining independent professional advice before making an investment decision.

8. No Investment Guarantee

Celovest does not guarantee:

  • That an investment opportunity will be successful
  • That an investor will receive a particular return
  • That projected revenue or profits will be achieved
  • That a business will remain operational
  • That a property will increase in value
  • That an investment transaction will be completed

Past performance or projected performance should not be interpreted as a guarantee of future results.

9. Investor Connection Desk

Celovest may facilitate introductions between businesses, project owners, property owners, and potential investors.

An introduction does not constitute:

  • An investment commitment
  • An endorsement of either party
  • A guarantee of funding
  • A guarantee that negotiations will succeed
  • A guarantee that a transaction will be completed

The parties are responsible for conducting their own negotiations, due diligence, legal documentation, and final agreements.

10. Business & Project Submissions

Users may submit business ideas, existing businesses, project proposals, investment requirements, or other related information through Celovest.

Users represent that:

  • The information submitted is accurate to the best of their knowledge

Celovest reserves the right to review, reject, modify, suspend, or remove any submission.

11. Confidentiality

Celovest will take reasonable measures to handle confidential information appropriately.

However, users acknowledge that submitting information through an online platform does not necessarily create a legally binding confidentiality or non-disclosure relationship.

Where a project or business requires formal confidentiality protection, the relevant parties may be required to enter into a separate Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) or other written agreement.

12. Due Diligence

Users are responsible for conducting appropriate due diligence before entering into any transaction.

Depending on the nature of the opportunity, this may include:

  • Business verification
  • Property valuation
  • Tax review
  • Regulatory review

Celovest may assist with coordination or introductions to relevant professionals, where available, but such assistance does not replace independent professional advice.

13. Fees, Commissions & Charges

Certain Celovest Services may be subject to fees, commissions, subscription charges, listing fees, service fees, success fees, or transaction-related charges.

Where applicable, the relevant fee structure will be communicated to the relevant party before the applicable service is provided or transaction is completed.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, applicable taxes, government charges, professional fees, legal fees, banking charges, and other third-party costs may be payable separately.

14. Transactions Between Users

Celovest may facilitate communication or introductions between parties, but the final transaction is entered into directly between the relevant parties unless Celovest is expressly identified as a contracting party.

Users are responsible for reviewing and understanding any agreement before signing it.

Celovest is not responsible for disputes arising from agreements entered into directly between users or third parties, except to the extent required by applicable law.

15. Third-Party Services

Celovest may refer or connect users with third-party professionals or service providers, including lawyers, valuers, surveyors, financial professionals, developers, agents, consultants, or other service providers.
