Website Terms of Use

These terms apply when you access or use the Athari Advisory & Ventures website. By continuing to use the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the site.

1. About this website

The website provides general information about Athari, its advisory services, venture-building activities, selected experience and insights. It is operated by Athari Advisory & Ventures (Pty) Ltd. in South Africa.

2. Information is general

Website content is provided for general information only. It is not legal, tax, accounting, investment, engineering, technical or other professional advice, and should not be relied on as the sole basis for a business, funding, operational or investment decision. Obtain advice suited to your circumstances before acting.

3. Enquiries do not create an engagement

Sending an enquiry, receiving a response or discussing a possible mandate does not create an adviser-client, fiduciary, partnership or investment relationship. An engagement exists only when the relevant parties sign a written agreement. That agreement will govern the professional services provided.

4. Accuracy and availability

We aim to keep the website clear and accurate, but information may become incomplete or out of date. Case studies are summaries and may omit confidential or commercially sensitive detail. We may change, suspend or withdraw content or functionality without notice. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.

5. Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, the website design, copy, graphics, logos, reports and other Athari content are owned by or licensed to Athari and protected by applicable intellectual-property law. You may view or print reasonable extracts for personal or internal business reference. You may not reproduce, republish, modify, sell or commercially exploit the content without prior written permission.

6. Acceptable use

You may not misuse the website, attempt unauthorised access, introduce harmful code, interfere with its operation, scrape it at unreasonable scale, impersonate another person, or use it for unlawful, misleading or abusive activity.

7. External websites

The website links to LinkedIn, portfolio companies and other third-party sites. Those sites are controlled by their owners and have their own terms and privacy practices. A link does not amount to a guarantee or endorsement of all third-party content, and Athari is not responsible for third-party availability or conduct.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Athari is not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on this website or linked third-party content. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

9. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information submitted through the website.
