3. NATURE OF SERVICES — IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
3.1 Entertainment and Informational Purposes Only
AstroShastri provides astrological calculations, horoscope content, compatibility analyses, and related interpretive content based on the principles of Vedic astrology (Jyotish). These Services are intended for entertainment, self-reflection, informational, and educational purposes only.
3.2 Not Professional Advice
Astrology is a belief system and traditional practice; it is not a scientifically validated discipline, and the content provided through our Services should never be considered a substitute for professional advice. Specifically:
— Not Medical Advice: Nothing on this Site constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a licensed physician or qualified healthcare provider regarding any health concerns.
— Not Legal Advice: Nothing on this Site constitutes legal advice. Consult a licensed attorney for legal matters.
— Not Financial Advice: Nothing on this Site constitutes financial, investment, or tax advice. Consult a licensed financial advisor before making financial decisions.
— Not a Substitute for Mental Health Care: If you are experiencing emotional distress, anxiety, depression, or any mental health concern, please seek help from a licensed mental health professional. Astrological content should never delay or replace appropriate care.
3.3 No Guarantee of Outcomes
Predictions, compatibility scores, Dasha periods, Muhurta recommendations, and all other astrological outputs are generated using traditional calculation methods (including Lahiri Ayanamsa and Whole Sign house systems) and proprietary or third-party computational engines. We make no representation, warranty, or guarantee, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or predictive value of any content provided through the Services. Life decisions made in reliance on our content are made entirely at your own discretion and risk.
3.4 Personal Responsibility
You acknowledge that any decisions regarding marriage, relationships, career, finances, health, travel, or any other significant life matter are yours alone to make. We strongly encourage you to use independent judgment, consult appropriate licensed professionals, and not rely solely on astrological guidance for material life decisions.
4. ACCURACY OF BIRTH DATA AND CALCULATIONS
The accuracy of any chart, horoscope, or compatibility report depends entirely on the accuracy of the birth date, time, and location data you provide. We are not responsible for inaccurate results arising from incorrect, incomplete, or estimated birth data submitted by you.
While we strive to ensure our calculation engines reflect established Vedic astrological methodologies, astronomical and astrological calculation systems may vary between practitioners, software providers, and traditions. We do not guarantee that our calculations will match those of any other astrologer, software, or publication, including but not limited to discrepancies in planetary retrograde status, Dasha period boundaries, or sub-degree positioning that may arise from differences in ephemeris data sources.
Certain features of the Site may require you to create an account. You agree to:
(a) provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration;
(b) maintain and promptly update your information to keep it accurate;
(c) maintain the confidentiality of your account credentials;
(d) accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account; and
