Terms of Service
Last updated: June 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Arcova. By accessing or using our website (arcova.bio) and our services (together, the “Services”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.
2. Who We Are
The Services are provided by Arcova Consulting Limited (“Arcova,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a company registered in New Zealand. Arcova is a science consultancy offering life-science strategy and consulting, biotech content and marketing, technical due diligence, and scientific writing and research.
3. Use of the Website
You may use this website for lawful, informational purposes and to get in touch with us. You agree not to misuse the site, attempt to disrupt it, access it through automated means without permission, or use its content other than as permitted by these Terms.
4. Services and Engagements
The website describes our services and lets you book an introductory call. Information on the website is for general information only and is not an offer or a binding agreement. Any work we undertake for you is governed by a separate written engagement agreement or statement of work, which sets out the specific scope, deliverables, fees, and timelines. Where those terms conflict with these Terms in relation to the engagement, the engagement agreement prevails.
5. No Professional Advice
Content on this website is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment, financial, legal, medical, or other professional advice. Our due diligence and consulting outputs are independent, evidence-based assessments and are not recommendations to invest, guarantees of outcomes, or a substitute for your own judgement. You are responsible for the decisions you make, and we recommend you seek appropriate professional advice before acting.
6. Intellectual Property
All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, and design — is owned by Arcova Consulting Limited or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute it without our written permission. Ownership of any deliverables we create for you is governed by your engagement agreement.
7. Third-Party Services
We use third-party tools — for example, Calendly for scheduling calls — and the website may link to third-party sites. Your use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices.
8. Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy. By using the Services, you agree to the practices described there.
9. Confidentiality
We treat confidential information you share with us in connection with an engagement as confidential and use it only to provide the Services, in line with our engagement agreement and good industry practice. We expect the same treatment of any confidential information we share with you.
10. Disclaimers
The website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding the website or its content, including as to accuracy, completeness, or uninterrupted availability.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Arcova will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of the website or reliance on its content. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under mandatory consumer protection laws that cannot lawfully be excluded.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand, and the courts of New Zealand have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them or your use of the Services.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above, and the current version will always be posted on this page. Your continued use of the Services means you accept the updated Terms.
