olgasverchkova.com is owned and operated by Olga Sverchkova, based in Tbilisi, Georgia.

2. Author and professional background

Olga Sverchkova is a writer and a Russian-qualified advocate with more than twenty years of professional experience.

References to legal practice, court work or advocate status on this website describe the author’s professional background and experience.

The website is primarily an author website and publication platform.

3. Scope of the website

The website contains:

  • books and information about literary projects
  • articles and essays
  • material about Tbilisi and St Petersburg
  • writing about people, relationships and human behaviour
  • practical information about living in and moving to Georgia
  • material informed by the author’s professional legal experience

4. General information, not individual advice

Articles and other materials are provided for general informational, editorial and literary purposes.

Nothing published on the website automatically constitutes individual legal, immigration, tax, financial, medical, psychological or investment advice.

Reading an article or contacting the author does not by itself create a lawyer-client, advocate-client or other professional relationship.

Rules, procedures, prices and administrative requirements may change. Information relevant to an individual decision should therefore be checked against current official sources and the reader’s particular circumstances.

5. No guarantee of outcome

No article, opinion or general information published on the website guarantees a particular legal, administrative, financial or other outcome.

Decisions may depend on public authorities, courts, banks, landlords, sellers and other independent third parties.

6. Books and literary works

Fictional and literary works published or described on this website may contain fictionalised characters, events and situations.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, fictional material should not be interpreted as a factual account of identifiable persons or events.

7. Copyright

Unless otherwise stated, texts, books, photographs, illustrations and other original material published on olgasverchkova.com are protected by applicable copyright law.

Copying, republication, commercial reuse, substantial reproduction or adaptation without prior permission is prohibited except where permitted by law.

Quoting short excerpts with proper attribution and a link to the original source is permitted where consistent with applicable copyright law.

8. External links and purchases

The website may link to booksellers, payment platforms, social networks, official websites and other external services.

The website owner does not control the content, availability, security or privacy practices of independent third-party websites.

Purchases made through external retailers or marketplaces are subject to the terms of the relevant platform.

9. Accuracy and updates

Reasonable efforts are made to keep practical information accurate and current.

However, laws, prices, procedures, opening hours, transport rules and other external information may change after publication.

Where a decision has legal, financial or other significant consequences, current information should be independently verified.

10. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the website owner is not responsible for decisions made solely in reliance on general information published on the website without appropriate individual verification.
