To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties and conditions, including implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, compatibility, availability, security, uninterrupted access, and freedom from errors, viruses, or harmful components.

We do not warrant that the Site will always be available, uninterrupted, accurate, current, secure, or error-free, or that defects will be corrected.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we and our owners, operators, affiliates, licensors, service providers, contractors, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, aggravated, punitive, or other damages of any kind arising out of or related to your access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on the Site or any content, links, advertisements, affiliate offers, sponsored materials, or third-party services.

This exclusion applies without limitation to damages for loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of opportunity, loss of goodwill, loss of use, loss of data, business interruption, computer damage, device failure, corruption of files, security breaches, or any other intangible or economic loss, even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability to you for any and all claims, losses, damages, and causes of action arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms of Use shall not exceed the lesser of:

  • The total amount, if any, that you actually paid directly to us for use of the Site in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or
  • One hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100.00).

If you have not paid any amount directly to us for use of the Site, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree that your exclusive remedy is to stop using the Site and our total liability to you shall be nil or the minimum amount, if any, required by law.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain liabilities. In such jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
