Terms of Use
The terms that govern your use of this website. Any work we do together is governed by a separate signed agreement, not by this page.
These terms, and what they govern.
This website is operated by Vantage Business Systems Ltd. (“Vantage”, “we”, “us”), a software and advisory company with offices in Calgary, Alberta (Canada); Scottsdale, Arizona (United States); and London (United Kingdom).
By using this site you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
What these terms do not govern.
These terms cover this website only. They are not a services agreement and they do not describe what we will build for you.
Any engagement with Vantage is governed by a separate written agreement signed by both parties. That agreement sets the scope, fees, timelines, intellectual property ownership, confidentiality, warranties, and liability for the work itself. Where it conflicts with anything on this page, the signed agreement governs.
Our products — Task Flow, Data Room, and Books — run on their own domains and are subject to their own terms of service and data processing terms. Nothing here grants you a right to use them.
Using the site.
You may view, browse, and print pages of this site for your own legitimate business purposes. You agree not to:
- Use the site unlawfully, or for any fraudulent or harmful purpose.
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its servers, or any connected system.
- Interfere with the site’s operation, including by introducing malicious code or placing unreasonable load on it.
- Scrape, harvest, or systematically extract content for the purpose of building a competing offering or reselling it.
- Misrepresent your affiliation with us.
We may restrict or withdraw access to the site, in whole or in part, at any time.
Who owns what is on this page.
The content of this site — text, design, layout, code, graphics, video, product imagery, and the Vantage name and marks — is owned by Vantage or used under licence, and is protected by copyright, trade mark, and other intellectual property laws.
You may quote short extracts with attribution and a link. Beyond that, you may not copy, reproduce, republish, adapt, or distribute any part of this site without our prior written permission.
Third-party names and marks appearing on this site, including those of our clients, remain the property of their owners and are used with permission or for identification only.
Links to other websites.
This site links to other websites, including our clients’ sites and our product domains. We do not control those sites, we do not endorse everything on them, and we are not responsible for their content, availability, or practices. Your use of them is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
Enquiries and discovery calls.
Booking a discovery call, sending us an enquiry, or receiving an indicative estimate from us does not create a contract and does not oblige either of us to proceed. Figures produced by any calculator or illustration on this site are estimates for discussion, based on the inputs given; they are not a quote, a forecast, or a promise of any particular result. A binding relationship starts only when both parties sign an engagement agreement.
The site is provided as is.
We work to keep this site accurate and available, but we provide it “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that its content is complete or current. Nothing on this site is legal, financial, accounting, or tax advice, and it should not be relied on as such.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. Where that is the case, the exclusions above apply only to the extent permitted, and nothing here limits your rights as a consumer where those rights cannot be excluded.
Limitation of liability.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Vantage and its directors, officers, employees, and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, business, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of this site — whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether or not we were advised such loss was possible.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this site and these terms is limited to one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100).
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Liability arising from work we perform for a client is dealt with in that client’s signed engagement agreement, not here.
Privacy.
Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Changes.
We may change this site, and these terms, at any time. The version on this page is the one in force, and the “Last updated” date above tells you when it last changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.
Governing law.
These terms, and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or this site, are governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict of laws rules. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Alberta, Canada.
If you are a consumer resident elsewhere, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory rules of law in your country of residence.
General.
If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. These terms are between you and us; no one else may enforce them.
