The CaféWork service, including its source code, design, text, graphics, logos, and other content created by our team, is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

You are not permitted to:

• Copy, modify, or distribute our content without written permission

To the extent permitted by applicable law, including Quebec's Consumer Protection Act, CaféWork (Andre Boisvert) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of or inability to use the service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CaféWork's total liability for any direct damages is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim — which is zero dollars ($0) for free-tier users.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Andre Boisvert (operating CaféWork), his agents, and successors from any claims, losses, damages, and reasonable legal fees arising from: (a) your breach of these terms; (b) content you submit or make available through the service; or (c) your use of the service in violation of any third party's rights.

In the event of a dispute arising from these terms or your use of the service, the parties agree to attempt to resolve the matter amicably before initiating legal proceedings. If no resolution is reached within thirty (30) days, disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Quebec, Canada. Consumer rights under Quebec's Consumer Protection Act remain fully applicable.

We may modify these terms at any time by posting the revised terms on this page. The "last updated" date at the top of the page will indicate when revisions were made. Your continued use of the service after posting of modified terms constitutes your acceptance of those changes.

For significant changes, we will endeavour to notify you by email or by a prominent notice on our service at least 30 days before the changes take effect.

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Quebec and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict of law rules. For Quebec residents, rights conferred by the Consumer Protection Act apply in full.
