1. Agreement and scope
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of warreandvavasour.com and public tools made available through it by warre & vavasour (“we”, “our” or “us”), based in southern Alberta, Canada. By using the website or those tools, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use them.
If you act for a business or another person, you must have authority to do so. A separate written agreement or product-specific terms govern paid work or services where provided, and take priority for that work if they conflict with these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information.
2. Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms and will post the updated version with a new date. Changes apply to use after they take effect, subject to any notice or consent required by law. Changes to this page do not rewrite a separate signed engagement agreement. Please review this page when you return.
3. Access and availability
You can browse this website without creating an account. You are responsible for your connection, devices and any credentials used with separately connected services. Use accurate information when contacting us and keep access credentials secure.
We may update, limit, suspend or discontinue website content or public tools, including to address maintenance, security, misuse or service limits. We do not promise uninterrupted availability. Commitments for paid services, support or availability must be set out in the applicable engagement agreement.
4. Content and permitted use
Our original text, design, software and other materials belong to warre & vavasour or their respective licensors. Third-party material, public procurement notices and historical artifacts remain subject to their own rights, licences and source conditions. A specific licence supplied with an artifact or software takes priority for that material.
You may browse, link to, and make reasonable copies of public pages for personal use or your internal business work, including evaluating our services and finding public work. Keep attribution and rights notices intact. Public agent instructions and tool interfaces may be used for their documented purposes, subject to published limits and these Terms.
Do not claim our materials as your own, sell or republish substantial parts without permission or a licence allowing it, or imply that we endorse your business. You retain your rights in information you provide; you authorise us to use it as reasonably needed to respond to your enquiry or perform the work you request, subject to our Privacy Policy and any separate agreement.
5. Acceptable use
Use the website and tools lawfully and with respect for other users. You must not:
- Impersonate another person or misrepresent your authority.
- Send spam, malicious code or information you are not entitled to disclose.
- Attempt unauthorised access, bypass access controls or interfere with service operation.
- Overload the website or tools, evade rate limits or misuse automated access.
- Infringe intellectual property, privacy or other legal rights.
Automated clients must follow the published interface instructions and applicable limits. You remain responsible for actions taken by a tool or assistant on your behalf.
6. Procurement information and tool results
WorkspaceAlberta helps you discover and review public procurement opportunities. Listings, summaries, matching results and other generated outputs can be incomplete, inaccurate or out of date. Always check the issuing authority's original notice, attachments and amendments for deadlines, eligibility, bonding, insurance and submission requirements before acting.
A search result or fit assessment is not a bid, a promise of eligibility, an award decision, or legal, engineering, financial or other professional advice. Public discovery tools do not submit bids or make commitments for you. You are responsible for your decisions, professional review and submissions.
We are not a procurement authority and do not guarantee that you will find suitable work, win a contract or achieve a particular revenue or training result. Third-party portals and connected services are governed by their own terms. Use only information you are authorised to share when requesting tool results.
7. Enquiries, fees and paid work
Browsing the website or sending an enquiry does not create a paid engagement or authorise a charge. Descriptions, examples and proposals on the website are invitations to discuss work.
Fees, payment schedules, taxes, scope, deliverables, cancellation, refunds, support and any revenue-sharing arrangement must be agreed in the applicable written proposal, order or service agreement before paid work starts. No subscription or automatic renewal is created by these website Terms. Any mandatory consumer rights continue to apply.
8. Website warranties
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the public website, content and free tools are supplied “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant their completeness, accuracy, reliability, security or fitness for a particular purpose.
This does not exclude warranties or protections that cannot lawfully be excluded, or override express commitments in a separate written agreement.
9. Liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, warre & vavasour is not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses arising from use of, or inability to use, this website or its public tools, including lost profits, missed opportunities or reliance on third-party information.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where doing so is prohibited by law. Liability for paid engagements is governed by the applicable written agreement and any mandatory legal protections.
10. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Alberta. Subject to rights or jurisdiction rules that cannot be waived under applicable law, disputes about these Terms or this website will be heard in the courts of Alberta, Canada.
Please contact us first so we can try to resolve a concern directly. If a provision of these Terms is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
