01
Agreement and scope
These Terms of Service are a draft agreement between you and Legal Plug LLC, the proposed entity that is currently developing and intends to operate the Legal Plug technology platform. Until the entity is formally organized, references to “Legal Plug,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to the business and product operated under that working name.
By accessing a Legal Plug website, application, dashboard, or related service, creating an account, submitting a request, accepting a quote, or otherwise using the platform, you agree to these Terms and any service-specific terms presented to you. If you use the platform for an organization, you represent that you can bind that organization.
02
The platform and services
Legal Plug provides software that helps people and organizations discover, request, schedule, communicate about, and manage professional services. Depending on availability and location, the platform may support interpretation, translation, mobile notary services, court reporting, remote video sessions, document workflows, business dashboards, and related coordination tools.
Legal Plug is a technology platform and marketplace coordinator. Except where we expressly state otherwise, we do not ourselves provide legal advice, interpretation, translation, notarization, court reporting, or other professional services. Services are performed by independent professionals who are responsible for the professional work they provide.
Features, professionals, service areas, response times, availability, and pricing may change. We may introduce, modify, suspend, or discontinue features during development or after launch.
03
Accounts and security
You must provide accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for your account activity, authentication methods, authorized users, and the confidentiality of credentials. Do not share credentials, create an account for someone else without authorization, or use another person’s account.
Tell us promptly about suspected unauthorized access, inaccurate account information, or a security incident. We may require additional verification, including identity or professional-eligibility information, before enabling certain features or services.
Business and organization accounts may permit administrators to manage requests or act for other people. The organization is responsible for ensuring that it has the authority and appropriate notices or permissions to submit information about those people.
04
Independent professionals
Professionals who use Legal Plug, including interpreters, translators, notaries, and court reporters, are independent contractors or independent service providers and are not Legal Plug employees unless a separate written agreement says otherwise. They control how they perform their professional work, subject to applicable law, professional standards, and the requirements of a confirmed engagement.
Professionals are responsible for maintaining the licenses, certifications, registrations, insurance, training, equipment, and qualifications required for the services they offer. Legal Plug may collect and review professional information, conduct verification, and suspend access when information is incomplete, inaccurate, expired, or inconsistent with platform requirements.
Customers and organizations should evaluate whether a professional and service are appropriate for their needs. Legal Plug does not guarantee a particular outcome, legal result, professional availability, or professional-client relationship.
05
Requests, pricing, and payment
Submitting a request does not guarantee acceptance or availability. A request becomes a confirmed booking or engagement only when the platform or Legal Plug communicates confirmation. Prices, fees, taxes, deposits, cancellation charges, refunds, and timing will be shown in the applicable quote, checkout flow, booking details, or service-specific terms.
Payments may be processed by Stripe or another payment provider. By submitting payment information, you authorize the applicable charge and agree to the payment provider’s terms. Legal Plug may use payment providers to process charges, refunds, professional payouts, identity checks, fraud screening, and related financial operations.
You are responsible for providing valid payment information and paying confirmed charges. Disputes about a service, refund, cancellation, or professional payout should first be submitted through the support channel identified in the applicable booking or service terms. We may place holds, limit transactions, or cancel requests when payment, fraud, safety, or compliance concerns require it.
06
Confidential information and content
The platform may be used to submit confidential legal, court, identity, business, medical, accessibility, or other sensitive information needed for a requested service. Submit only information reasonably necessary for that service and confirm that you are authorized to share it.
Legal Plug may store, transmit, process, and make information available to the professionals, participants, organization administrators, and service providers who need it to fulfill the request, operate the platform, provide support, protect security, process payment, or comply with law. Our Privacy Notice explains these practices in more detail.
You retain ownership of documents, messages, recordings, and other materials you submit. You grant Legal Plug the limited rights needed to host, reproduce, transmit, display, and process those materials to provide and improve the requested platform features. You must not upload unlawful, malicious, infringing, or unrelated content.
Unless a separate written agreement says otherwise, Legal Plug does not guarantee attorney-client privilege, work-product protection, evidentiary admissibility, confidentiality against every recipient, or a particular retention period. You are responsible for determining whether the platform is appropriate for a specific matter and for following any applicable legal, court, professional, or records-retention requirements.
07
Acceptable use
You may not use the platform to violate law or professional rules; impersonate another person; misrepresent qualifications or authority; harass, threaten, discriminate against, or exploit another person; submit fraudulent requests; interfere with platform security; reverse engineer or scrape non-public areas; upload malware; circumvent fees or access controls; or use the platform to create a competing service without permission.
You must not ask a professional to perform work outside their qualifications, license, engagement, or applicable law. Legal Plug may investigate suspected violations and may preserve or disclose information when reasonably necessary to protect people, the platform, or legal rights.
08
Intellectual property
The Legal Plug name, platform, software, designs, interfaces, documentation, trademarks, logos, and original content belong to Legal Plug or its licensors. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the platform for its intended purpose while you comply with these Terms.
You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, frame, republish, or create derivative works from the platform except as allowed by law or with written permission. You may provide feedback, and you grant us the right to use that feedback without compensation or restriction.
09
Disclaimers and liability
THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. LEGAL PLUG DISCLAIMS WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION.
LEGAL PLUG DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT A PROFESSIONAL WILL ACCEPT A REQUEST, THAT A SERVICE WILL BE AVAILABLE IN A PARTICULAR LOCATION, OR THAT A SERVICE WILL ACHIEVE A PARTICULAR LEGAL, BUSINESS, COMMUNICATION, OR OTHER RESULT. WE ARE NOT A LAW FIRM AND DO NOT PROVIDE LEGAL ADVICE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LEGAL PLUG WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, BUSINESS, OR OPPORTUNITY. ANY LIABILITY CAP, EXCLUSIONS, AND SERVICE-SPECIFIC REMEDIES WILL BE STATED IN THE APPLICABLE SERVICE TERMS, SUBJECT TO NON-WAIVABLE LAW.
You agree to defend and indemnify Legal Plug and its officers, personnel, affiliates, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses arising from your misuse of the platform, your breach of these Terms, your content, your violation of law or another person’s rights, or your relationship with an independent professional, except to the extent caused by our own unlawful conduct.
10
Suspension and termination
You may stop using the platform at any time. We may suspend or terminate access, cancel requests, or restrict features if we reasonably believe you breached these Terms, created risk, provided inaccurate information, failed to pay, threatened safety, violated professional or legal requirements, or if the platform is discontinued.
Terms that by their nature should continue after termination will survive, including provisions concerning payment, confidentiality, intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, disputes, and interpretation.
11
Disputes and governing law
The final version of these Terms will identify the legal entity, governing law, venue, and dispute process after Legal Plug is formally organized. The current development position is that Texas law and courts located in or serving Dallas County may apply, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, subject to any mandatory law that applies to you.
Before launch, counsel should decide whether customer, business, and professional users require separate dispute provisions; whether individual arbitration, small-claims access, or a class-action waiver is appropriate; and what notices and consent flow are required. Nothing in these Terms waives rights that cannot legally be waived.
12
Changes and contact
We may update these Terms as the platform, services, legal entity, or applicable law changes. The updated version will state its effective date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before material changes apply to existing users.
Questions about these Terms or a service request may be directed to contact@cirous.com. The final page will replace this development contact with the official legal-notice address and entity information.
Before launch
Qualified counsel should confirm the formed entity and jurisdiction, professional classification, service-specific terms, Stripe Connect structure, refund and cancellation rules, confidentiality and records handling, arbitration strategy, accessibility obligations, and all state-specific requirements before these Terms are relied upon.
