​
limitation of liability
maya does not guarantee that you will be accepted as a registered User at maya, or as a client by the mental health practitioners on our platform. maya reserves the right to terminate your registration with our platform at any time without citing a reason.
maya, as a technology platform, facilitates the connection between Users and MHPs. The delivery of professional services hinges on the information shared by the User with the MHP, and maya doesn't guarantee specific outcomes from the therapy. Additionally, maya cannot ensure the consistent availability of the same MHP over time. Upon booking an appointment, maya's role is solely to act as a conduit between the User and the MHP, transmitting the booking details to both parties.
The frequency of therapy sessions will be mutually agreed upon between the User and the MHP. While we strive to maintain a consistent schedule, we cannot guarantee that sessions will always occur at a specific frequency or on the same day of the week, though we will make every effort to accommodate your needs.
Over the course of therapy, the MHP may determine that online therapy or mental health Services are not appropriate for some or all of the User’s mental health needs and accordingly may elect to not provide online therapy or mental health Services to the User. Similarly, the MHP shall be at liberty to decide that additional help is needed for the User and shall choose to bring in an additional MHP.
While maya strives to verify the credentials of each registered MHP, maya is not liable for any misrepresentation or fraudulent credentials or claims made by the MHP. Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of all information provided to maya and Users is the sole responsibility of the MHP.
MHPs, who have a contractual relationship with maya to use our platform to provide Services to Users, are solely responsible for their actions, advice, and information provided. maya is not liable for any damages or losses caused by a MHP, directly or indirectly. Users are responsible for their independent decisions and actions, regardless of any representations by maya or the MHP. Neither maya nor the MHP is responsible for the outcomes of Users' decisions and actions.
maya does not endorse or control any specific medical practices, theories, opinions, viewpoints, or positions on any topic. maya does not offer any warranties, guarantees, or conditions, expressed or implied, regarding any information, advice, or suggestions received from maya, either orally or in writing, through any communication medium or service. The only exceptions are outlined in these terms and conditions.
The content provided via the maya platform and any third-party platforms, or via the Services provided, is intended for general informational purposes only and should not be solely relied upon when making decisions. Users should consult primary, more accurate, more complete or more timely sources of information before making any decisions.

At maya, we believe that it is unethical for our MHPs to have dual relationships with current or former clients. Therefore, during and after using our Services, Users are prohibited from having any other type of individual relationship with their MHP. This includes connecting on social and professional networking websites such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X and other similar websites. Maintaining clear professional boundaries ensures that you can comfortably resume services with us in the future or refer others to our service without any complications.
