1. About Turchina Group
Turchina Group is an advisory firm based in undefined, undefined. We are not a law firm and we do not ourselves provide legal services. When legal work is required for a client matter, that work is performed by qualified Chinese or Turkish lawyers acting in their own individual professional capacity, coordinated through us. Any reference on the Website to "legal coordination" or similar phrases describes our project-management and bilingual-coordination role, not the provision of regulated legal services.

You may not: (a) attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Website or its underlying infrastructure; (b) introduce malicious code; (c) scrape or harvest content in bulk for commercial use; (d) misrepresent your identity or affiliation; or (e) use the Website for any unlawful purpose. We may suspend or terminate access for any user violating these Terms.
3. No advice without engagement
Content on the Website (including blog posts, FAQs, guides, and service descriptions) is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, investment, immigration, or financial advice and should not be relied upon as such. We become responsible for advice only when you and we sign an engagement letter.

5. Third-party links
The Website may link to third-party websites (regulators, partner firms, AI search engines, social media platforms). We are not responsible for the content, practices, or availability of those websites. Links do not imply endorsement.
6. Disclaimers
The Website is provided on an as-is and as-available basis. We make no warranties, express or implied, regarding accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or fitness for any particular purpose.

Communications you send to us through the Website, WhatsApp, WeChat, or email are treated as confidential. We do not share them with third parties except as described in our Privacy Policy. However, until an engagement letter is signed, no attorney-client or formal advisor-client relationship exists between us, and you should not send highly sensitive material before such a relationship is established.
