By accessing this Site or engaging our services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or engage our services.
1. Services
RepuLex provides legal online reputation management (ORM) services, including but not limited to:
- →Sending formal legal notices under the IT Act 2000 and IT (Intermediary Guidelines) Rules 2021
- →Filing defamation complaints under IPC Sections 499 and 500 / BNS 2023

- →Emergency ORM response for time-sensitive reputational crises
All services are facilitated by legally qualified professionals. RepuLex is not a law firm but works with empanelled advocates and legal counsel across India.
2. Engagement & Scope
A formal engagement begins only upon:
- →Execution of a written engagement letter or service agreement
- →Execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
- →Payment of the agreed advance fee
A free consultation call or email exchange does not constitute engagement and creates no obligations on either party.
3. Fees & Payment
- →All prices are exclusive of 18% GST
- →A non-refundable advance of 50% is payable at engagement; balance is due on confirmed removal
- →Emergency ORM (7-day timeline) attracts a 50% premium on the applicable tier
- →Custom pricing applies for corporate engagements, injunctions requiring court proceedings, and cross-border cases
- →Payments are accepted via NEFT, RTGS, UPI, and major debit/credit cards through secure payment gateways
4. Refund Policy
Given the legal and administrative work initiated upon engagement:
- →The advance fee (50%) is strictly non-refundable once legal proceedings or notices have been initiated
- →If we determine prior to initiating action that the case is legally non-actionable, we will refund the advance in full
- →Balance fees are only charged upon confirmed, documented removal of the identified content
- →No refunds are issued for content that is removed and subsequently re-uploaded by the original publisher — a fresh case will apply
5. No Guarantee of Outcome
While RepuLex maintains a 97% case success rate, we do not and cannot guarantee specific outcomes. The success of any legal action depends on factors including the nature of the content, the jurisdiction of the platform, the responsiveness of intermediaries, and applicable law at the time of action.
Our commitment is to pursue every legally available remedy diligently, transparently, and with full documentation provided to the client at each stage.
6. Client Obligations
You agree to:
- →Provide accurate, truthful, and complete information about the harmful content and surrounding circumstances
