1. About Evar
Evar is a B2B event-technology product built and operated by EVAR Connect Pvt. Ltd. The current version of the Service (the "Phase 1 Release") allows registered Exhibitors to:
- Capture leads at trade exhibitions, expos, conferences, and similar B2B events by scanning paper visiting cards using the device camera (OCR-based capture).
- Store, organise, and export those leads from a personal Exhibitor dashboard.
- Receive periodic insights and notifications relating to their captured leads.
The Service is offered in a downloadable mobile application format and / or a web companion, as EVAR Connect may make available from time to time.
2. Scope of the Service - and Future Scope
You understand and agree that the Service is offered on an "as-released" basis. The features described above represent the current scope. EVAR Connect may, at its sole discretion and at any time, add, remove, modify, suspend, or upgrade any feature, module, integration, hardware-pairing, data product, analytics product, content, ticketing capability, booking capability, payment facility, organiser-onboarding facility, marketplace functionality, or interface within the Service. Any such additional features or facilities shall be governed by these Terms or by supplementary terms (including, where applicable, separate refund, cancellation, payment, or organiser terms) notified to you in-app, on our website, by email, or by any reasonable means. Continued use of the Service after such notification constitutes acceptance.
3. Eligibility & Account

3.3 You shall provide accurate, current, and complete information about yourself and the business entity you represent at the time of registration and shall update such information promptly when it changes. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate any account where the registration information is found to be false, misleading, or incomplete.

4. Commercial Terms - Phase 1
4.1 The Phase 1 Release is offered free of charge to all registered Exhibitors across India. There is no per-month subscription, no per-user fee, and no cap on the number of leads you may capture during a single event.
4.2 EVAR Connect reserves the right to introduce, in future versions, paid plans, lead-volume caps, premium tiers, value-added modules, hardware-rental, or other commercial arrangements. Any such changes shall be notified in advance and shall not retroactively charge you for usage before the change comes into effect.
4.3 You shall bear the cost of your own device, internet data, mobile network charges, and any third-party software required to access the Service.
5. Acceptable Use
5.1 You shall use the Service strictly for bona-fide B2B lead capture and post-event follow-up in connection with events you legitimately participate in as an exhibiting business.
5.2 You shall not:
- scan or upload visiting cards, contact details, or any personal data of any individual where you do not have a legitimate, in-person, voluntary exchange of that data at a business event;
- impersonate any other exhibitor, business, brand, or individual;
- scrape, harvest, copy, mirror, resell, sub-license, or commercially exploit the lead records, analytics, or any other Service output to third parties;

- use the Service in violation of any Indian law, including but not limited to the DPDP Act, the Information Technology Act, the Telecom Commercial Communications Customer Preference Regulations ('TCCCPR'), and applicable State commercial laws.
5.3 Lead capture must reflect a genuine business interaction. Captured leads must not be transferred, sold, or otherwise made available to any third party outside your business entity.
6. Your Content & Lead Records
6.1 'Exhibitor Content' means the visiting cards you scan, the lead records you create, the notes, tags, follow-ups and other inputs you enter into the Service.
6.2 You retain all proprietary rights you may have in Exhibitor Content. By using the Service, you grant EVAR Connect a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, sub-licensable licence to host, store, process, transmit, display, reproduce, derive insights from, train artificial intelligence and machine learning models on, and otherwise use Exhibitor Content for the purposes of operating, improving, securing, analysing, and developing the Service and other products of EVAR Connect - subject always to Part B (Privacy Policy) below.
6.3 The licence in clause 6.2 survives termination of your account to the extent required for (a) EVAR Connect's internal analytics, (b) training and improvement of artificial intelligence systems, (c) regulatory compliance, (d) defence of legal claims, and (e) production of de-identified, aggregate, and statistical insights.
6.4 No Sale. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, EVAR Connect shall not sell Exhibitor Content or visitor personal data to any external third party in a manner that identifies an individual person or a specific exhibitor business. Aggregated, de-identified statistical insights may be published or shared.
7. Our Intellectual Property
7.1 The Evar brand, name, logo, App, source code, design system, user interface, AI models, algorithms, datasets, documentation, and all related intellectual property are owned by EVAR Connect or its licensors and are protected by Indian and international IP laws.
7.2 We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the App on devices you own or control, solely for the purpose of using the Service in accordance with these Terms. No other rights are granted, by implication or otherwise.
8. Visitor Data - Your Responsibilities as a Data Fiduciary
8.1 When you scan a visitor's business card or otherwise capture visitor information, you and EVAR Connect are each, severally, 'Data Fiduciaries' of that visitor's personal data within the meaning of the DPDP Act.
8.2 You confirm and warrant that:
- the visitor voluntarily handed over their business card or contact information to you, in person, at a B2B event, with the reasonable expectation of being contacted by you for B2B follow-up;
- you shall use the visitor's personal data only for the purposes for which it was reasonably and voluntarily provided;
- you shall honour any visitor request for access, correction, withdrawal of consent, or erasure of their personal data held by you, in compliance with the DPDP Act, and shall pass on any such request that pertains to data held by EVAR Connect to our Grievance Officer at the address in clause 16;
- you shall not enrich, append, or augment a captured lead's personal data using any unlawful or non-consensual data source.
8.3 You agree to indemnify EVAR Connect for any complaint, claim, fine, or action arising from your independent misuse of visitor data after it leaves the Service in your possession.
9. Service Availability, Security & Support
9.1 We use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Service available and secure, but we do not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, or fully secure operation. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to planned maintenance, upgrades, force majeure events, or failure of third-party telecommunication or cloud-infrastructure providers.
9.2 We employ industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (transit encryption, access controls, role-based permissions, audit logs, and cloud-provider security) to protect Exhibitor Content. No system, however, is completely secure; you accept this residual risk.
9.3 Support is provided on a best-effort basis through the contact channels in clause 16. Phase 1 does not carry a contractual service-level agreement.
10. Termination
10.1 You may stop using the Service at any time and may request deletion of your account by writing to us at the address in clause 16. We will action such requests in accordance with Part B (Privacy Policy).
10.2 We may suspend or terminate your account with or without notice if (a) you breach these Terms, (b) we are required to do so by law or regulatory order, (c) continued provision of the Service to you would expose EVAR Connect to legal, security, or reputational risk, or (d) we discontinue the Service altogether.
10.3 Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends immediately. The licences in clause 6.2, the indemnity in clause 8.3, the disclaimers in clause 11, the liability cap in clause 12, the dispute-resolution mechanism in clause 14, and any clause that by its nature should survive, shall survive termination.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, EVAR Connect disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, and uninterrupted availability.
11.2 OCR results are produced by automated systems and may contain errors. You are responsible for verifying captured lead details before relying on them commercially.
12. Limitation of Liability
12.1 To the maximum extent permitted by law, EVAR Connect, its directors, officers, employees, advisors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages, including loss of profit, revenue, goodwill, business opportunity, anticipated savings, or data, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service - whether based in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal theory.
12.2 The aggregate liability of EVAR Connect to you under or in connection with the Service, regardless of cause of action, shall not exceed the higher of (a) ₹5,000 (Rupees Five Thousand) or (b) the total fees actually paid by you to EVAR Connect under any paid plan within the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Since Phase 1 is offered free of charge, item (b) shall be ₹0 unless and until you upgrade to a paid plan.
13. Indemnity
You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless EVAR Connect and its representatives from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, fine, penalty, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your breach of these Terms, (b) your misuse of any visitor data captured through the Service, (c) any content you upload, or (d) your violation of any applicable law.

The award shall be final and binding.

15.2 Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall continue in full force.
