1. Limit Right to Use

The TAL Site is owned and operated by Taxonomic Advisors Ltd. All content appearing on the TAL Site — including but not limited to text, HTML code, multimedia clips, images, graphics, icons, software, and the overall selection and arrangement of materials (collectively, the "Materials") — is either the property of Taxonomic Advisors or is used under license or with permission, and is protected under the copyright laws of Canada as well as other applicable domestic and international intellectual property legislation, unless otherwise indicated. Your use of the Materials is permitted only as expressly outlined in these Terms of Use.

You may view, print, and/or download a single copy of brief excerpts from the Materials on one computer, strictly for personal, informational, and non-commercial purposes within your organization, provided that all copyright and proprietary notices remain intact. You bear full responsibility for any consequences arising from such use. All other uses of the Materials are strictly forbidden. Copying, distributing, modifying, transmitting, reusing, reproducing, disseminating, uploading, or posting the Materials — in whole or in part, by any means — without the prior written consent of Taxonomic Advisors is prohibited. Unauthorized use of any Materials may violate copyright, trademark, privacy, communications, and other applicable laws.

2. Links

The TAL Site may include links to external websites, provided solely for your convenience and not to be interpreted as an endorsement of those sites, their owners, products, or services. Should you choose to visit any third-party websites linked from the TAL Site, you do so entirely at your own risk. Taxonomic Advisors reserves the right to remove any link at its discretion and without prior notice. The presence of a link does not imply any affiliation, association, or authorization by Taxonomic Advisors to use any trademark, trade name, logo, or copyrighted symbol associated with the linked site. Taxonomic Advisors expressly disclaims all warranties, whether express or implied, in connection with any linked sites, including but not limited to warranties relating to accuracy, ownership, validity, or legality of content.

3. Communications

Without the use of encryption, the Internet is not a fully secure environment and complete privacy cannot be guaranteed. Email communications transmitted over the Internet are susceptible to interception and manipulation. Taxonomic Advisors accepts no liability for any damages suffered by you or any third party resulting from the transmission of confidential information to Taxonomic Advisors via the Internet, whether authorized by you explicitly or implicitly, nor for any errors or alterations made to any information during transmission.

You bear sole responsibility for the content of your communications and their compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. By submitting any information for inclusion on the TAL Site, you confirm that such content does not infringe upon the intellectual property rights or any other rights of third parties, and you grant Taxonomic Advisors the right to make that information accessible through the TAL Site.

4. Trademarks

Certain words, phrases, names, designs, or logos appearing on the TAL Site may represent trademarks, service marks, or trade names belonging to Taxonomic Advisors or third parties. The trademarks, logos, and service marks (collectively, the "Trademarks") displayed on the TAL Site are owned either by Taxonomic Advisors or by the respective third-party proprietors. Nothing on the TAL Site shall be interpreted as granting — whether by implication, estoppel, waiver, or otherwise — any license or right to use any Trademark without obtaining prior written permission from Taxonomic Advisors or the relevant third-party owner.

5. Disclaimer

Taxonomic Advisors makes no representations regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of the materials published on the TAL Site, and assumes no obligation to keep such materials current. Content on the TAL Site may contain typographical errors and is subject to change without notice. Taxonomic Advisors disclaims all liability for any unauthorized use or reproduction of the materials or any portion thereof. All materials and access to the TAL Site are provided strictly on an "as is" basis, with all warranties — whether express or implied, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or title — expressly excluded. You should not expect the TAL Site to be free of errors or to function without interruption.

6. Limitation of Liability

Your access to and use of the TAL Site is entirely at your own risk. Under no circumstances shall Taxonomic Advisors, or any party involved in creating, producing, or delivering the TAL Site, be held liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, punitive, consequential, or other damages of any kind — however caused — including but not limited to loss of use, lost data, lost profits or revenue, business interruption, costs of replacement goods, data loss or corruption, personal injury, or any other financial loss arising out of or in connection with your use of, or reliance upon, the TAL Site or its content, regardless of whether the claim arises in warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), or any other legal theory, even where Taxonomic Advisors has been made aware of the potential for such damages.

7. Viruses

Although reasonable efforts are made to ensure the TAL Site is free of computer viruses, Taxonomic Advisors cannot guarantee this and accepts no liability for any damage to your computer equipment or other property, or for any data loss or corruption, resulting from your access to, use of, or navigation of the TAL Site, or from downloading any Materials from it. You are strongly encouraged to take appropriate precautions, including regular virus scanning, and to maintain a complete and up-to-date backup of all relevant data stored on your computer systems.

10. Governing Law and Miscellaneous

All matters pertaining to your access to and/or use of the TAL Site shall be governed exclusively by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable laws of Canada, without regard to any conflict of law principles. You hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario for any action or proceeding arising from, or in any way connected to, your use of the TAL Site.
