By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.

Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years old to use this Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age.

2. Description of Services

YourLawDocs is a legal document template generation platform that provides:

• NNN Agreement Templates - Non-Disclosure, Non-Use, and Non-Circumvention agreements designed for China manufacturing relationships
• Manufacturing Agreement Templates - Comprehensive contracts for outsourcing production to Chinese factories
• Purchase Order Templates - Professional bilingual purchase order forms
• Chinese Trademark Registration Assistance - Professional guidance and facilitation for registering trademarks with the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA)

Each document template purchase includes a specified number of PDF generations (typically 3 per purchase), allowing you to customize and regenerate your documents as needed.

3. Important Disclaimers

No Attorney-Client Relationship: Your use of this Service does not create an attorney-client, solicitor-client, or any other professional relationship between you and Lewis Behr Consultants Pty Ltd. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice.

Not a Substitute for Legal Advice: The templates provided are general forms that may not be suitable for your specific circumstances. We strongly recommend that you consult with a qualified legal professional before using any documents generated through this Service, particularly for significant business transactions.

No Guarantee of Enforceability: While our documents are designed with the Chinese legal system in mind and include provisions such as CIETAC arbitration clauses, we make no representations or warranties regarding the enforceability of any document in any jurisdiction. Legal outcomes depend on many factors beyond the document itself.

Lawyer Review Add-on: The optional lawyer review service is facilitated through independent third-party legal professionals. Any attorney-client relationship formed through this service is between you and the reviewing attorney, not with Lewis Behr Consultants Pty Ltd.

4. User Accounts

To access certain features of the Service, you must create an account. When creating an account, you agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information
• Maintain and promptly update your account information
• Maintain the security and confidentiality of your login credentials
• Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account
• Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account

You may only maintain one account per person or business entity. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that we reasonably believe are being misused.

5. Purchases & Payments

Pricing: Prices are displayed in multiple currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, CNY) and may vary based on your location. All prices are subject to change without prior notice, though changes will not affect orders already placed.

Payment Processing: All payments are processed securely through Stripe. We accept major credit and debit cards. By making a purchase, you represent that you are authorized to use the payment method provided.

Taxes: Prices may not include applicable taxes. You are responsible for paying any taxes, duties, or other governmental assessments associated with your purchase, as determined by your jurisdiction.

Currency: The final charge will be processed in the currency displayed at checkout. Your bank may apply additional currency conversion fees for international transactions.

6. Refund Policy

Due to the digital nature of our products, refund requests are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

When Refunds May Be Granted:

When Refunds Are Generally Not Available:

• User error in form completion (you may use remaining credits to regenerate)

Australian Consumer Law: Nothing in this policy limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, including your rights to a remedy for services that fail to meet consumer guarantees.
