The services provided by each Provider are the sole responsibility of that Provider, and shall be provided in accordance with such Provider’s own terms and conditions, and Torchlight assumes no responsibility or liability for any damages in connection with such services. For any medical emergency, you should immediately contact your nearest healthcare professional or your local emergency contact number and should not attempt to use the Site for purposes of dealing with any such medical emergency.
