2. No Responsibility for Professional Conduct
- While we require professionals to adhere to our internal community guidelines and terms of service, We Make Waves does not take responsibility for the behaviour, professionalism, or quality of services provided by any professional listed on our platform.
- We cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information provided by professionals in their profiles or directory listings, including but not limited to their qualifications, skills, or availability.
