No Solicitation in Restricted Territories

The content on this website does not constitute an offer or solicitation to engage our services in any jurisdiction where such offer or solicitation would be unlawful or unauthorized. Certain jurisdictions may restrict or prohibit the marketing of citizenship by investment programs or related advisory services.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your access to and use of this website complies with all applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. We do not represent that the services described on this website are appropriate or available for use in all locations.

Formation of Professional Relationships

No attorney-client, advisory, or professional services relationship is created between you and Sao Tome Citizenship merely by your use of this website or by any communication through the website. Such relationships are established only through a separate, written engagement agreement signed by both parties.

Any information you submit through this website, including through contact forms or email, does not create a professional relationship and may not be treated as confidential or privileged. Do not send us any confidential information until a formal engagement agreement has been executed.

We reserve the right to decline representation or services for any reason, including but not limited to conflicts of interest, capacity constraints, or jurisdictional limitations. Initial consultations or communications do not obligate us to accept you as a client.

Payment Terms and Fee Structure

All fees for services provided by Sao Tome Citizenship will be set forth in a separate written engagement agreement. Fees may be structured as fixed fees, hourly rates, or retainer arrangements, depending on the nature and scope of services required.

Payment terms, including due dates, accepted payment methods, and any applicable late payment penalties, will be specified in your engagement agreement. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are due upon receipt of invoice. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate services if payments are not received in accordance with agreed terms.

All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, government fees, filing fees, and other third-party costs, which will be your responsibility unless otherwise agreed in writing. Currency exchange fluctuations and international transaction fees are the responsibility of the client.

This website may contain links to third-party websites, resources, or services that are not owned or controlled by Sao Tome Citizenship. These links are provided solely for your convenience and do not constitute an endorsement of the content, products, services, or opinions expressed on such third-party sites.

We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, terms of use, or practices of any third-party websites.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sao Tome Citizenship, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from your access to or use of or inability to access or use this website.

We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that defects will be corrected. We make no warranties or representations about the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content on this website. Your use of the website is at your sole risk.

In no event shall our total liability to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for accessing this website or one hundred dollars ($100), whichever is less. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Sao Tome Citizenship, its affiliates, licensors, and service providers, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms & Conditions or your use of the website.

This indemnification obligation includes, but is not limited to, claims arising from your breach of any representation or warranty contained in these terms, your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, or any content you submit or transmit through the website.

We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.

Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution

Any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these terms or the website shall be brought exclusively in the courts of São Tomé and Príncipe.

You irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objection to the laying of venue in such courts on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise. If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

The failure of Sao Tome Citizenship to enforce any right or provision of these terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms & Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and Sao Tome Citizenship regarding the use of this website.
