ELEMENTIA

1. Acceptance

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of www.elementia.art (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Site.

The Site is operated by Elementia Sound Inc., a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), which carries on business under the name ELEMENTIA™, or by any successor to which the operation of the business is transferred from time to time. In these Terms, "we", "us", and "our" mean the operator for the time being. Any such successor assumes these Terms from the date of transfer, and no transfer affects the ownership of the artistic work, which is dealt with in section 6. Contact: studio@elementia.art. Postal address for the service of formal notices: Elementia Sound Inc., 1401-2992 Glen Drive, Coquitlam, British Columbia V3B 0V2, Canada.

We may modify these Terms at any time without notice. The date above shows when they were last changed. The version posted at the time of your use governs that use, and your continued use constitutes acceptance. You should review this page before each use.

Capacity. By using the Site you represent that you have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

Accuracy of what you tell us. You represent that any information you provide to us is true, accurate, current, and complete, and that you are entitled to provide it.

Electronic communications. You consent to receive communications from us electronically and agree that they satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

These Terms contain provisions that disclaim warranties, limit our liability, require you to indemnify us, and restrict where and when a claim may be brought. Please read sections 12, 13, 14, and 17 carefully before using the Site.

2. Directed at Canada

The Site is operated from British Columbia and is intended for users in Canada. Nothing on the Site is an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be unlawful, or to any person to whom it would be unlawful to make it. We make no representation that the Site or its content is appropriate, available, or lawful outside Canada. If you access the Site from elsewhere you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local law.

3. Information only, no offer, no reliance

All content on the Site is provided for general information. Nothing on the Site constitutes an offer capable of acceptance, an invitation to treat, a representation, a warranty, a condition, a collateral agreement, or a contractual term of any kind, and nothing on it creates any obligation on us.

Engagements are arranged individually and are governed exclusively by a separate written agreement. No engagement exists, and no obligation of any kind arises, unless and until such an agreement is executed by both parties and any deposit required by it has been received and cleared. Correspondence with the studio, including any indication of availability, interest, terms, or price, is without prejudice and does not create an agreement or any legitimate expectation.

We accept a limited number of engagements. We are under no obligation to accept any enquiry, to give reasons for declining, or to respond at all.

Descriptions on the Site of how a ceremony is made and how an evening is held are descriptions of practice. They are not descriptions of, representations about, or promises concerning any particular occasion. Each ceremony is composed once and is not repeated. No two are alike, and none is capable of being reproduced.

You agree that you have not relied, and will not rely, on any statement on the Site in entering into any agreement with us. Any agreement between us is governed solely by its own written terms.

4. No advice of any kind

Nothing on the Site constitutes medical, psychological, therapeutic, health, legal, financial, tax, or professional advice of any kind, and nothing on it should be relied upon as such. No professional relationship of any kind is created by your use of the Site or by any correspondence with the studio prior to a signed agreement.

5. No health, medical, or therapeutic service

ELEMENTIA™ is an artistic and performance practice. It is not, and nothing on the Site should be construed as offering, medical care, psychiatric or psychological care, psychotherapy, counselling, diagnosis, assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, healing, or any other health service, and it is not a substitute for any of them.

No person associated with ELEMENTIA is licensed or registered as a health professional in respect of this practice, and no such person holds themselves out as one.

No result, benefit, outcome, or effect of any kind is promised, claimed, represented, warranted, or implied, whether physical, psychological, emotional, spiritual, or otherwise. Individual experience varies and is not predictable.

Nothing on the Site should be relied upon in place of advice from a qualified professional. If you have or suspect any medical or psychological condition, if you are under professional care, if you are pregnant, or if you have any concern whatever about attending, consult your own qualified practitioner before doing so. Never disregard, avoid, or delay obtaining professional advice because of anything on the Site.

6. Ownership of the work

All artistic activity carried on under the name ELEMENTIA™, and all artistic work arising from it, is the property of Olena (Elena) Pomazanova.

This includes, without limitation, every sound recording and every musical work, whether released, unreleased, or performed live; the composition, arrangement, and improvisation embodied in each; all spoken texts, titles, and written material; the album The Spiral and each of its phases; all artwork, design, and the visual identity; and all rights of every kind subsisting in them anywhere in the world, present and future, together with all rights to authorise or prohibit their use.

Ownership is personal and does not depend on the name under which the work is presented or the business is carried on. ELEMENTIA™ is a trademark and a professional name under which artistic activity is carried on. Elementia Sound Inc. operates the business only. It does not own the artistic work. Any right the company holds in the work is held under licence from Olena (Elena) Pomazanova, is limited to the terms of that licence, and reverts on its termination. The same applies to any other entity that may at any time be incorporated, registered, named, renamed, amalgamated, sold, or dissolved in connection with this practice. The formation, naming, reorganisation, sale, or winding up of any entity does not transfer, assign, dilute, or extinguish ownership, and nothing on this Site is to be read as effecting a transfer of any kind.

All rights are reserved. No licence, assignment, or permission of any kind is granted by the display of any work on this Site, by its availability on any streaming service, by its performance in any room, or by any dealing between us, except by an express written instrument signed by Olena (Elena) Pomazanova or issued by Elementia Sound Inc. under her authority. Nothing is granted by implication, acquiescence, estoppel, course of dealing, or usage of trade.

Moral rights in the work, including the right of attribution and the right of integrity, are asserted and are not waived.

No recording of any kind. No audio recording, video recording, live transmission, or photography of any ceremony is permitted, whether for private or any other purpose, except with prior written permission. Any recording made in breach of this term is unauthorised, confers no right of any kind on the person who made it, and may not be reproduced, published, transmitted, sold, or otherwise exploited. All rights in any such recording, so far as capable of vesting, vest in Olena (Elena) Pomazanova, and we reserve every remedy available in respect of it.

7. Trademark and other intellectual property

ELEMENTIA™ is a trademark of Olena (Elena) Pomazanova and is the subject of Canadian trademark application number 2483359. The trademark symbol denotes a claim of rights in an unregistered mark and does not indicate registration. The name, the wordmark, the element symbols, the seal, and the visual identity may not be used, imitated, diluted, or registered by any person without her prior written permission.

All content on the Site, including sound recordings, musical works, photographs, artwork, text, layout, structure, and code, is owned by Olena (Elena) Pomazanova, or by the operator, or used under licence, and is protected by the Copyright Act (Canada) and by international convention. All rights are reserved.

You may view the Site and share links to it for personal, non commercial purposes. You may not copy, reproduce, download, cache beyond ordinary browser operation, scrape, index for commercial purposes, republish, distribute, transmit, broadcast, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, create derivative works from, or otherwise exploit any part of the Site or its content, in any medium now known or later devised, without our prior written permission.

You may not use the Site or any of its content to train, fine tune, evaluate, benchmark, or otherwise develop any machine learning model, artificial intelligence system, or dataset. No such use is permitted, and no such use is or will be implied from the availability of the Site.

Photographs are the work of the photographers who created them and appear under licence to Olena (Elena) Pomazanova. They may not be extracted, cropped, edited, filtered, or reused for any purpose.

Sound recordings are made available for listening through the streaming services linked from the Site, subject to those services' own terms. Nothing on the Site grants any licence to reproduce, distribute, broadcast, communicate to the public, synchronise, sample, remix, or publicly perform any recording. Licensing enquiries are welcome through the studio.

We reserve all rights not expressly granted. No right is granted by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.

8. Claims of infringement

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright, write to studio@elementia.art with sufficient particulars to identify the work, the content complained of, and your interest in it. We will consider the notice in accordance with the Copyright Act (Canada). Consideration of a notice is not an admission of any kind.

9. Prohibited conduct

You agree not to:

a. use the Site in violation of any applicable law;

b. attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, its servers, or any related system or network;

c. interfere with, disrupt, or place undue load on the Site, or with any other person's use of it;

d. use any automated means, including robots, spiders, scrapers, or crawlers, to access, monitor, index, or copy the Site or its content;

e. circumvent, disable, or interfere with any technical or security measure we employ;

f. impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation with any person;

g. collect or harvest information about other users; or

h. use the Site or its content to develop any competing product or service.

We may investigate and take any action we consider appropriate, including denial of access and referral to law enforcement.

Termination. We may terminate or suspend your access to the Site at any time, for any reason or for no reason, without notice and without liability. Termination does not affect any right or obligation that has accrued, and the provisions identified in section 18 as surviving continue in force.

10. Unsolicited submissions

We do not accept or consider unsolicited creative material, proposals, concepts, or ideas. Any material you send us, other than personal information necessary to an enquiry, is deemed non confidential and non proprietary, and you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty free, sub-licensable licence to use, reproduce, adapt, and exploit it in any medium without obligation, attribution, or compensation. Do not send us anything you wish to keep confidential or in which you claim any right.

11. Availability

We do not warrant that the Site will be available, uninterrupted, timely, secure, complete, current, or free of error or of harmful components, or that any defect will be corrected. We may change, suspend, restrict, withdraw, or discontinue the Site or any part of it at any time, with or without notice, and we are not liable to you or to any third party for doing so.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

The Site and all of its content are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty, representation, condition, or term of any kind.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law we disclaim all representations, warranties, conditions, and terms, whether express, implied, statutory, collateral, or arising by course of dealing, usage of trade, or otherwise, including any implied warranty or condition of merchantability, merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, non infringement, accuracy, completeness, currency, availability, security, or quiet enjoyment.

We make no representation that content on the Site is accurate, complete, current, reliable, or suitable for any purpose. Any reliance on it is at your sole risk.

13. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will we, or any of our officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, or service providers, be liable for any damages whatever, whether direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or aggravated, or for any loss of profit, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, reputation, data, use, or anticipated saving, arising out of or in connection with the Site, its content, its unavailability, or these Terms, whether in contract, tort including negligence, breach of statutory duty, strict liability, or otherwise, and whether or not we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Site, its content, and these Terms, from all causes of action and under all theories of liability, is limited to the total amount, if any, you have paid to us for access to the Site. Access to the Site is provided free of charge, and that amount is accordingly nil.

These limitations are a fundamental basis of the bargain between us, are reflected in the fact that access is provided without charge, and apply even if a limited remedy is found to have failed of its essential purpose.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including under the Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act (British Columbia), and including liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or death or personal injury caused by negligence. Certain jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation of certain damages, and in those jurisdictions the exclusions and limitations above apply only so far as permitted.

This section does not apply to attendance at a ceremony. Attendance is governed exclusively by the separate written agreement, waiver, and release applicable to that engagement.

14. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the operator and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and service providers from and against all claims, demands, actions, proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses, including legal fees on a solicitor and own client basis, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or of the rights of any third party. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defence of any matter subject to indemnity, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate.

15. Third party links and services

The Site links to third party websites and services. We do not control, endorse, monitor, verify, or assume responsibility for them, their content, their availability, their security, or their practices. Your dealings with any third party are solely between you and that third party.

16. Privacy

Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into and forms part of these Terms.

17. Governing law, jurisdiction, and limitation period

These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them, the Site, or its content, whether contractual or non contractual, are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable in that province, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

You irrevocably attorn and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia, sitting in Vancouver, and waive any objection to venue and any plea of forum non conveniens. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Any claim arising out of or in connection with the Site or these Terms must be commenced within one year after the cause of action arises, or within such longer period as applicable law requires notwithstanding this provision, failing which it is permanently barred.

18. General

Severability. If any provision is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it is severed or read down to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions continue in full force.

No waiver. No failure or delay in enforcing any provision is a waiver of it or of any other provision. No waiver is effective unless in writing and signed by us.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any right under them. We may assign them, in whole or in part, to any company to which the operation of the business is transferred or to any successor of the business, without notice or consent.

No agency. Nothing in these Terms creates any partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship between us.

Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and us in respect of the Site, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous communications, representations, and understandings, whether oral or written.

Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Survival. Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, and 18 survive any termination of your use of or access to the Site, however arising.

Cumulative remedies. Our rights and remedies are cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy at law or in equity.

Language. These Terms are drawn in English. Les parties ont exigé que le présent document soit rédigé en anglais.

Headings and interpretation. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. Words importing the singular include the plural and the converse. "Including" means including without limitation. These Terms are not to be construed against us on the ground that we drafted them.

Notices. Notices to us must be in writing and sent to studio@elementia.art, and are effective on acknowledged receipt. Notices to you may be given by email to the address you have given us, or by posting on the Site, and are effective when sent or posted.

Third parties. Our officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and service providers may rely on and enforce the provisions of these Terms that are expressed for their benefit. No other person has any right under these Terms.

Independent advice. You acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to obtain independent legal advice on these Terms and have either done so or chosen not to.

Currency. All amounts referred to are in Canadian dollars unless expressly stated otherwise.

Further assurances. Nothing in these Terms limits any right or remedy available to us at law or in equity, and we reserve all of them.

1. Who we are, and how to reach us

This website, www.elementia.art (the "Site"), is operated by Elementia Sound Inc., a company incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), which carries on business under the name ELEMENTIA™, or by any successor to which the operation of the business is transferred from time to time. Any such successor assumes the commitments set out in this policy from the date of transfer, and this policy continues to apply without interruption. We are not obliged to give notice of a transfer, and no transfer affects the ownership of the artistic work, which is dealt with in our Terms of Use.

In this policy, "we", "us", and "our" mean the operator. "You" and "your" mean any individual who visits the Site, subscribes to our mailing list, or corresponds with the studio.

All privacy enquiries, access requests, corrections, and complaints should be sent to studio@elementia.art, or by post to Elementia Sound Inc., 1401-2992 Glen Drive, Coquitlam, British Columbia V3B 0V2, Canada.

Please do not send sensitive information by email. Ordinary email is not a secure medium. Anything you send us by email travels at your own risk, and we accept no responsibility for its interception, loss, or misdirection.

In this policy, "personal information" means information about an identifiable individual, and does not include business contact information used solely to contact an individual in relation to their business role, or information that has been aggregated or de-identified so that no individual can reasonably be identified from it.

This policy describes our general practices. It is not exhaustive, and we may provide additional or more specific notice at the point at which particular information is collected. Where such a notice and this policy differ, the specific notice governs for that collection.

2. Scope

This policy applies to personal information collected through the Site and through correspondence with the studio. It does not apply to:

any third party platform, including Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and any social media or messaging service, whether or not linked from the Site. When you follow such a link you leave the Site. Your information is then governed by that platform's own policies and terms, over which we exercise no control, for which we accept no responsibility, and about which we make no representation

information you provide in the course of a confirmed engagement, which is governed exclusively by the separate written agreement for that engagement

information collected about you by any third party, including any person from whom you learned of us

any communication you choose to send us through a channel we have not published

You should read the privacy policy of every third party service you use.

3. The Site is directed at Canada

The Site is operated from British Columbia and is intended for individuals in Canada. We make no representation that the Site, or the practices described in this policy, comply with the law of any other jurisdiction. If you access the Site from elsewhere you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local law.

4. Personal information we collect

We collect only what is necessary for the purposes in section 5.

Information you provide directly. If you subscribe to our mailing list, we collect the email address you enter and, if you choose to give it, your name. If you write to the studio, we collect your email address, your name if given, and the contents of your message, which for an engagement enquiry ordinarily includes the nature of the occasion, the date contemplated, and the location contemplated.

Information generated automatically. Our hosting and infrastructure providers create standard server logs in the ordinary course of delivering the Site. These may include internet protocol address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, referring page, pages requested, and date and time of access.

Information we do not want. We do not collect payment card or banking information through the Site. We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information, and we ask that you do not send it. In particular, do not send us information concerning your health, any medical, psychiatric, or psychological condition, any disability, your financial circumstances, your beliefs, or any government identifier. If you send such information notwithstanding this request, you do so entirely on your own initiative and at your own risk. We will hold it only so long as necessary to respond and will then destroy it. We do not solicit it, we do not require it, and no engagement depends on it.

Information from other sources. We may receive your name and contact details from a person who refers you to us. Where we do, we rely on that person's representation that you consented to the referral. If you did not, tell us and we will destroy the information.

Your choice not to provide. You are not obliged to give us any personal information. If you choose not to, or if you later withdraw consent, we may be unable to correspond with you, to consider an enquiry, or to arrange an engagement, and we accept no liability for that consequence.

5. Purposes

We collect, use, and disclose personal information only for the following purposes:

a. to send periodic communications about recordings, engagements, and the work, where you have given express consent;

b. to receive, assess, and respond to enquiries;

c. to negotiate, arrange, document, and perform an engagement, where one follows;

d. to maintain business, tax, accounting, audit, and insurance records;

e. to operate, maintain, secure, diagnose, and improve the Site, and to carry on the artistic activity to which it relates;

f. to detect, prevent, investigate, and respond to fraud, misuse, security incidents, and unlawful activity;

g. to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; and

h. to comply with applicable law and with the lawful requests of courts, regulators, and public authorities.

We will not use or disclose personal information for any other purpose without your consent, except where collection, use, or disclosure without consent is permitted or required by law, including the circumstances set out in sections 12, 15, and 18 of the Personal Information Protection Act.

6. Consent

We collect personal information with your knowledge and consent, except where legislation permits or requires otherwise.

Express consent for commercial electronic messages. Subscription requires an affirmative act by you. We do not add addresses obtained from any other source. We do not purchase, rent, harvest, or exchange lists. We do not rely on inferred, bundled, or pre ticked consent.

Implied consent for correspondence. Where you write to the studio, we treat your message as consent to use your information to respond and, where applicable, to arrange the engagement enquired about.

Withdrawal. You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal and contractual restriction and on reasonable notice. Every commercial electronic message contains a functioning unsubscribe mechanism, given effect promptly. You may also withdraw consent in writing to the address in section 1.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of anything done before it, does not oblige us to delete records we are required by law to retain, does not oblige us to delete records reasonably required to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim, and may prevent us from continuing to deal with you.

We do not rely on your silence or inaction as consent to anything.

7. Disclosure

We do not sell personal information. We do not rent, trade, or licence it, and we do not disclose it to any third party for that party's own marketing.

Service providers. We disclose personal information to providers performing functions on our behalf, and only so far as necessary for those functions. These currently comprise website hosting and infrastructure, email delivery, form handling, and, in connection with a confirmed engagement, payment processing. Providers are engaged on terms requiring them to safeguard the information and to use it only for the purposes for which it was disclosed. We are not responsible for any act or omission of a provider beyond our reasonable control.

Professional advisers. We may disclose personal information to legal, accounting, and insurance advisers where necessary, subject to duties of confidence.

Business transactions. Personal information may be disclosed to a party to a prospective or completed business transaction, including a reorganisation, financing, sale of assets, or a transfer of the business, where the information is necessary to determine whether to proceed and, if it completes, to carry on the business. Disclosure is made on terms restricting use to those purposes.

Legal requirements. We may disclose personal information where required or permitted by law, including in response to a subpoena, warrant, production order, or other lawful demand, or where necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of any person. Where we are prohibited from notifying you of such a demand, we will not do so.

8. Storage and processing outside Canada

Certain providers store and process information on servers outside Canada, including in the United States and the European Union.

Information held in a foreign jurisdiction is subject to the laws of that jurisdiction, and may be accessed by the courts, law enforcement agencies, regulators, and national security authorities of that jurisdiction, in some circumstances without notice to you and without your consent. We exercise no control over such access and accept no liability for it.

By subscribing or corresponding with the studio you acknowledge this. If you prefer that your information not be stored outside Canada, tell us in writing, and we will tell you what we can and cannot accommodate. We may be unable to accommodate the request, in which case we may be unable to deal with you.

Questions about our practices in respect of providers outside Canada may be sent to the address in section 1.

9. Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law, whichever is longer. Our current schedule:

Mailing list. Until you unsubscribe. A minimal suppression record is kept indefinitely thereafter, solely so that you are not contacted again in error. This is itself a protection.

Enquiries not resulting in an engagement. Two years from last correspondence, then destroyed.

Records of a confirmed engagement. Seven years following the end of the applicable fiscal period, consistent with the Income Tax Act (Canada) and applicable limitation periods.

Server logs. According to the standard practice of the relevant provider, over which we exercise no control.

Where we have used personal information to make a decision that directly affects you, we retain that information for at least one year after the decision, so that you have a reasonable opportunity to obtain access to it.

Information is destroyed, erased, or made anonymous when retention is no longer required. Destruction may not extend to routine backups, archives, or logs from which selective deletion is not reasonably practicable, and which are themselves overwritten in the ordinary course.

10. Safeguards

We protect personal information by security arrangements appropriate to its sensitivity, including access limited to those who require it, encrypted transmission for the Site and its forms, and the selection of providers who maintain their own security programs.

No method of transmission over the internet, and no method of electronic storage, is completely secure. We do not warrant the security of any information transmitted to or held by us, and any transmission is at your own risk.

Any person acting for us who has access to personal information is bound to keep it confidential and to use it only for the purposes set out in this policy.

Aggregated and de-identified information. We may create, retain, use, and disclose information that has been aggregated or de-identified so that no individual can reasonably be identified from it, for any lawful purpose and without limit of time. Such information is not personal information and is not subject to this policy.

If a privacy breach occurs that creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify affected individuals and the appropriate regulator as and to the extent required by applicable law. Nothing in this paragraph creates any obligation beyond what the law requires, and notification is not an admission of fault or liability.

11. Accuracy, access, and correction

We make reasonable efforts to keep personal information sufficiently accurate and complete for the purposes for which it is used. We are not responsible for the accuracy of information you provide, and we do not independently verify it.

On written request to the address in section 1, and subject to the exceptions the law permits, we will:

a. tell you what personal information we hold about you;

b. tell you how it has been and is being used;

c. tell you the names of the individuals and organisations to whom it has been disclosed;

d. provide access to it; and

e. correct it where you demonstrate that it is inaccurate or incomplete.

We will respond within thirty days of receiving the request, or will notify you within that period of an extension the legislation permits. We may require information sufficient to verify your identity, and will use that information only for that purpose.

Access may be refused, in whole or in part, where the law requires or permits refusal, including where disclosure would reveal personal information about another individual, would reveal confidential commercial information, is subject to solicitor and client privilege, relates to an investigation or legal proceeding, or where the request is frivolous or vexatious. Where we refuse we will give reasons and tell you how to complain.

We do not charge for a routine access request by an individual to their own personal information. Where a request is not routine, we will provide a written estimate before proceeding, as the legislation permits.

12. Cookies and measurement

The Site uses only what is necessary for it to function and, where enabled, a limited measure of aggregate traffic.

We do not use advertising or cross site tracking cookies. We do not display advertising. We do not build marketing profiles of visitors. We do not permit third parties to collect information through the Site for their own purposes.

Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies, and the Site remains usable if you do. Because no consistent standard exists for the interpretation of browser "do not track" signals, we do not represent that we respond to them.

13. Minors

The Site is intended for adults, is not directed at children, and is not designed to appeal to them. We do not knowingly collect personal information from any individual under the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence, and we ask that no such individual send us any. If you believe we hold such information, write to the address in section 1 and we will destroy it promptly.

14. Links and third party content

The Site contains links to third party websites and services, provided for convenience only. We do not control them, do not endorse them, do not monitor them, and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, or practices. This policy does not apply to them.

15. Changes

We may amend this policy at any time. The date above shows when it was last changed. Where an amendment is material we will indicate as much on this page. Where an amendment would materially change the purposes for which we use personal information already collected, we will seek fresh consent.

Your continued use of the Site after an amendment takes effect constitutes acceptance of it. You should review this page periodically.

16. Complaints

If you are dissatisfied with our handling of your personal information or of a request, write first to the address in section 1, and we will investigate and respond.

If you remain dissatisfied you may complain to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia, or, where the federal Act applies, to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Nothing in this policy limits your right to do so.

17. General

Successors. This policy binds and benefits our successors and permitted assigns.

Precedence. Where anything said elsewhere by us, whether on the Site, in correspondence, or otherwise, is inconsistent with this policy, this policy governs, except where a specific collection notice applies as described in section 1.

Language. This policy is drawn in English. Where it is translated, the English version governs in the event of any inconsistency.

18. No additional rights created

This policy sets out our practices. It is a statement of practice and not a contract, and it does not create, and is not intended to create, any right or cause of action that does not otherwise exist at law.
