Terms of Use
By reading or using Cambridge Now ("the site"), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please stop using the site.
Purpose of the site
The site is a reference publication about Cambridge, Ontario, Canada. It carries short articles on local people, history, public services and organizations. Its content is meant to inform. It is not a service you can rely on for a decision with legal, medical, financial or safety consequences. The Disclaimer page explains this in more detail and forms part of these terms.
Permitted use
You may read the site, link to it, and quote short passages with attribution for personal, educational or journalistic purposes. Copying whole articles, republishing the site's text or graphics at scale, or presenting them as your own work is not permitted without written consent. The Copyright page sets out the details.
You agree not to:
- interfere with the site's operation or try to get around its security;
- run automated tools that place an unreasonable load on the server;
- use the site to break any law or to harass any person;
- misrepresent a link, quotation or screenshot as an official statement of a government body or organization.
Accuracy and updates
Articles are compiled from public sources and are checked with reasonable care. Details change, and some items are marked for further review. The site may edit, move or remove content at any time and without notice.
No warranty
The site and everything on it is provided as is and as available. To the extent the law allows, the operator makes no promise that content is complete, current or free of error, or that the site will always be available or free of harmful code.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, the operator is not liable for loss or damage arising from your use of the site or from reliance on its content. That covers direct, indirect and consequential loss alike. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, and nothing removes any right you have as a consumer under applicable legislation.
External links
The site links to pages run by others, including government bodies, news outlets and reference works. The operator does not control those pages, does not endorse them, and is not responsible for what they say or how they handle your data. A link does not suggest any connection with the organization that runs the target page.
Names, marks and third parties
Names of organizations, products and public offices appear only to identify them. They belong to their owners. Their use here does not mean sponsorship or approval in either direction.
Corrections and complaints
If you think something on the site is wrong, unfair or infringes a right, use the contact form on this site, once published, and say which page and which statement you mean. Requests are reviewed in good faith.
Changes to these terms
The terms may be updated from time to time. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised version. The date at the top shows when the current text took effect.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply in Ontario. Any dispute will be brought before the courts of Ontario, unless a mandatory rule gives you the right to bring it elsewhere.
