Gurmat Darbar

Terms of Service

Rules and expectations for using Gurmat Darbar.

These Terms describe the purpose of the platform, how public listings should be used, what contributors are responsible for, and when we may restrict access.

Last updated: May 1, 2026

Platform purpose

Gurmat Darbar is a community information platform for discovering Sikh samagams, related listings, Gurudwara information, contributor-submitted materials, and Gurusewak profiles.

The platform is open to everyone and is not restricted by age, religion, community, region, or background. Use it respectfully and lawfully.

The service is offered to help Sangat discover programs more easily, but it is not a replacement for direct verification with organizers, venues, or listed contacts.

Accounts and access

  • You may need a Google-based account to access certain features such as contribution tools.
  • Do not create accounts using false identity information, misleading impersonation, or someone else's Google account.
  • You are responsible for using your account lawfully and for keeping access to your Google account secure.
  • We may suspend, limit, or delete access if the platform is used abusively, unlawfully, misleadingly, or in violation of these Terms or the Community Guidelines.

User and contributor responsibility

  • Share only information, posters, and contact details you have the right to share.
  • Do not upload misleading, unlawful, impersonating, infringing, or privacy-invasive content.
  • Verify event details before travel, payment, booking, or public reliance.
  • Do not use the service to harass, scrape, spam, manipulate visibility, or interfere with other users.

Samagam accuracy disclaimer

Event and listing information may come from community submissions, public sources, or administrative review. While we aim to improve reliability, Gurmat Darbar does not guarantee that any listing is complete, current, or error-free.

Dates, venues, participants, live-stream details, and organizer arrangements can change without notice. Users should verify important details directly with the relevant organizer or venue before acting on them.

Gursewak or Gurusewak profile disclaimer

Gurusewak profiles and contact details are provided for community convenience where available. Gurmat Darbar does not represent that it manages bookings, endorses listed individuals, verifies every contact detail, or participates in private arrangements between users and listed persons.

Any booking, donation, travel, or personal-information exchange should be handled carefully and verified independently.

No guarantee of booking or service quality

Gurmat Darbar does not guarantee that a listed individual, organizer, or related service will be available, suitable, or satisfactory for a private arrangement.

Users are solely responsible for verifying service quality, scheduling, payment, suitability, and authenticity before making arrangements outside the platform.

Religious and content sensitivity

Because Gurmat Darbar deals with religious and community information, users should act respectfully and avoid posting material that is sensationalized, mocking, misleading, inflammatory, or disrespectful to faith practices or community spaces.

We may remove or restrict content that undermines the integrity, dignity, or safety of these spaces even when it is presented as commentary or community information.

Content rights and moderation

You keep rights to content you lawfully upload, but by submitting it to Gurmat Darbar you give us a non-exclusive right to host, display, review, adapt for formatting, and distribute it within the service for operational and community-discovery purposes.

We may review, refuse, restrict, remove, or annotate submitted content if we believe it creates safety, legal, privacy, accuracy, or community-trust issues.

Service availability

We may update, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, permanent storage, or compatibility with every browser, device, or network environment.

Liability framing

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gurmat Darbar is provided on an as-is and as-available basis. We are not responsible for indirect losses, missed events, third-party conduct, or arrangements made directly between users and external contacts.

Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies that cannot be lawfully excluded under applicable consumer or mandatory local law.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, subject to any mandatory rights that apply in the jurisdiction where a user resides.
