You acknowledge that Signit is not liable for any issues arising from user content, including errors, viruses, defamation, or inaccuracies. You bear full responsibility for your use of any user content and any disputes that may arise from such use.

 

Considering the risks associated with using online platforms, Signit and its affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.

The arbitration will take place in the Dubai International Finance Centre, adhering to the DIFC-LCIA Rules, and will be conducted in English. This process will involve three arbitrators: one chosen by us, one by you, and a third selected by the first two arbitrators. The decision from the arbitration will be final and enforceable under Saudi Arabian law in any court that has the appropriate jurisdiction.
