Welcome to VetWiz! Your use of VetWiz mobile application, including the services VetWiz makes available; which may be accessed through or downloaded from any application store or distribution platform is governed by these terms of use (the “Terms”). Please carefully read them before using the Application. For the purposes of these Terms, “we,” “our,” “us,” and “VetWiz” refer to VetWiz and Farm Innovation Nigeria Limited.

In order to use VetWiz, you must first agree to these Terms. If you are using VetWiz on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms. In that case, “you” and “your” will also refer to that organization, wherever possible.

BY DOWNLOADING, USING, INSTALLING, OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING VETWIZ, YOU HEREBY AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, THEN YOU MAY NOT USE, DOWNLOAD, INSTALL, OR OTHERWISE ACCESS VETWIZ.

Any advice or other materials provided through the Services are intended for general information purposes only. They are not intended to be solely relied upon and are not a substitute for professional veterinary advice based on your personal circumstances. We are not liable or responsible for any actions taken due to your having read or been told about such advice or other materials. In particular, to the fullest extent permitted by law, we give no representation or warranties about the accuracy, completeness, or suitability for any purpose of the advice or other materials and information published on or through the Services.

If you receive advice from a Veterinary doctor or other qualified Veterinary professional which conflicts with anything contained in VetWiz then the former should take precedence. Never disregard professional Veterinary advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read through VetWiz.
