My Tutor Quest does not assume any parental responsibility, supervisory role, safeguarding duty, or duty of care in relation to minors.

Professionals who choose to offer services to students under the age of 18 do so entirely at their own discretion and risk. Such professionals are solely responsible for:
• Determining whether they are legally permitted and appropriately qualified to work with minors
• Complying with all applicable safeguarding, child protection, duty-of-care, and consent laws in their country of practice
• Implementing appropriate safeguarding policies, procedures, and professional boundaries
My Tutor Quest does not monitor, supervise, assess, or enforce safeguarding practices and accepts no liability for services provided to minors.

Any misrepresentation of age, legal capacity, or authority to act on behalf of a minor constitutes a material breach of these Terms. My Tutor Quest reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate accounts, restrict access, or take any action deemed necessary to protect users and limit legal or safeguarding risk.
