You represent and warrant that your User Content does not and will not violate any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or publicity rights, and is not otherwise unlawful or objectionable.

We reserve the right (but have no obligation) to remove, edit, or modify any User Content that we determine violates these Terms.

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

You agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, for any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service or your use of our Services.

International Users: If you are using our Services from outside Canada, you are responsible for complying with local laws. These Terms do not limit any consumer rights you may have under applicable laws.

Negotiation: Before initiating any formal legal proceedings, you agree to first negotiate with us in good faith for at least 30 days to resolve any dispute. Please contact us at [email protected] to initiate negotiations.

Mediation: If negotiation fails, disputes shall be submitted to non-binding mediation under the rules of the British Columbia Mediator Roster Society.

Binding Arbitration: If mediation fails, disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc., to be held in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Exception: Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief or taking action to stop actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render these Terms unenforceable or invalid as a whole. The unenforceable or invalid provision will be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision.

Waiver: No waiver of any term or condition set forth herein shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Techlis to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

These Terms of Service, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional agreements you enter into with us, constitute the entire agreement between you and Techlis regarding your use of our Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written, or electronic).

Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms shall not be construed against the drafting party.

These Terms may be translated into other languages for convenience. In case of any inconsistency or discrepancy between the English version and any translated version, the English version shall prevail.
