The Service provides tools to help manage HR processes but does not constitute legal, tax, or professional advice. You should consult with qualified professionals for specific advice related to your circumstances.

Our total liability to you for all claims arising from or related to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to Grove in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

Nothing in these Terms shall limit or exclude our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law.

Grove reserves the right to revise these Terms at any time without prior notice. By continuing to use the Service after changes are posted, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.

We will notify you of any material changes to these Terms by:

• Posting a notice on our website
• Sending an email to the address associated with your account
• Displaying a prominent notice within the Service

For material changes, we will provide at least 30 days' notice before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Grove.

Grove has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services. We do not warrant the offerings of any of these entities or individuals or their websites.

You acknowledge and agree that Grove shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services available on or through any such third-party websites or services.

We strongly advise you to read the terms of service and privacy policies of any third-party websites or services that you visit.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any disputes arising under or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect.
