• Misrepresent your identity or account relationship with TMS Sirsi.
• Reproduce, redistribute, or commercially exploit Portal content without permission.

5. Information accuracy and availability

The Portal displays information sourced from TMS Sirsi's systems. While we strive for accuracy and timely updates, displayed balances, rates, and records are provided on an “as available” basis. Official society records maintained at the TMS Sirsi office prevail in case of any discrepancy. Market rates shown on the Portal are indicative and subject to change without notice; they do not constitute a binding offer or guarantee of transaction price.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Portal for maintenance, security, or operational reasons, with or without notice.

6. Requests and transactions

Features that allow you to submit requests or save preferences through the Portal do not, by themselves, complete a financial transaction unless explicitly confirmed by TMS Sirsi through its normal office processes. Follow up with the society office when confirmation or original documents are required.

7. Intellectual property

The Portal, its design, software, and TMS Sirsi branding are owned by or licensed to TMS Sirsi. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Portal for personal, non-commercial account access in accordance with these Terms.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Portal is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, or secure operation.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, TMS Sirsi and its officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the Portal. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Portal shall not exceed the amount you paid to use the Portal (which is zero for standard member access), except where liability cannot be excluded under applicable law.

10. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TMS Sirsi from claims, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Portal or violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by law.

11. Termination

We may restrict or terminate your access to the Portal if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or pose a security risk. You may stop using the Portal at any time. Provisions that by nature should survive termination (including disclaimers, limitations of liability, and governing law) will continue to apply.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates the latest revision. Your continued use of the Portal after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute arising from or relating to the Portal shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in Karnataka, India, unless otherwise required by applicable cooperative society or banking regulations.
