Terms of Service
1. Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website at learnlynk.ca (the "Website"), the free tools and calculators offered on it, and the LearnLynk software platform (the "Platform"), all provided by Learnlynk Technologies Inc. ("LearnLynk", "we", "us"). By using the Website or Platform you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use them.
2. The Website and free tools
The Website and its free tools — including the tuition refund calculator, admissions cost calculator, competitor map, tuition benchmark, compliance radar, and expansion planner — are provided for general information only.
- They do not constitute legal, financial, accounting, regulatory, or professional advice, and using them creates no advisory or professional relationship.
- Several tools draw on public data (for example, the BC Private Training Institutions Regulatory Unit directory) and third-party search data. We present this information in good faith but do not guarantee it is current, complete, or error-free.
- You are responsible for verifying any figure before relying on it for a decision. We are not liable for decisions made using the tools.
3. The Platform (for customers)
Access to the Platform is provided to colleges and their authorized users under a separate written agreement (an order form, subscription, or master services agreement) between LearnLynk and the institution (the "Customer Agreement"). Where these Terms and a Customer Agreement both apply, the Customer Agreement governs the Platform and prevails on any conflict. These Terms supplement it for general matters such as acceptable use and intellectual property.
4. Accounts and acceptable use
If you are given access to the Platform, you must keep your credentials secure and are responsible for activity under your account. You agree not to:
- use the Website or Platform unlawfully, or to infringe others' rights;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access, probe, scrape at scale, overload, or disrupt the service or its security;
- reverse engineer, copy, or resell the service except as permitted by law or a Customer Agreement;
- upload malware or content you have no right to provide; or
- misuse personal information of students or others contrary to applicable privacy law.
5. Customer and institutional data
As between LearnLynk and a college, the college owns its institutional and student data. The college grants us the limited right to host and process that data to provide the service. Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, and, for the Platform, in the Customer Agreement. We do not sell customer data or use it to train AI for other customers.
6. Intellectual property
The Website, the Platform, and all software, content, design, and trademarks (other than customer data and third-party materials) are owned by LearnLynk or its licensors and are protected by law. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Website for its intended purpose. No other rights are granted.
7. Third-party services and links
The Website and Platform may link to or integrate with third-party services. We are not responsible for third-party content, products, or practices, and your use of them is governed by their own terms.
8. Disclaimers
Except as expressly stated in a Customer Agreement, the Website, free tools, and Platform are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free. The free tools in particular are provided without any warranty as to accuracy or suitability.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, LearnLynk will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Website, free tools, or Platform. For Platform customers, our total liability is governed by the Customer Agreement. For Website and free-tool use where no Customer Agreement applies, our aggregate liability will not exceed CAD $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in that case the limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold LearnLynk harmless from claims, losses, and expenses arising from your misuse of the Website or Platform or your breach of these Terms, except to the extent caused by us.
11. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or restrict access to the Website or free tools at any time, including for misuse or security reasons. Platform access is governed by the term and termination provisions of the Customer Agreement.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. The courts of British Columbia have exclusive jurisdiction, subject to any dispute-resolution terms in a Customer Agreement.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the revised version here with a new "last updated" date. Continued use after changes means you accept them.
14. Contact
Questions about these Terms can be sent to legal@learnlynk.ca, or by mail to Learnlynk Technologies Inc., Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
