You acknowledge and agree that:

  • you are responsible for your own investment research and decisions;
  • you should obtain appropriate independent professional advice before making (or refraining from making) any investment, financial or other decision;

6. Client and third-party content

Some of the Content is provided by, or relates to, our clients (for example, listed companies for whom we operate investor relations websites or distribute content) or by third-party data providers. Although we take reasonable steps to ensure the integrity of the Services, we do not endorse, verify or guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of any client- or third-party-supplied information, and we are not responsible for it. Any views or statements expressed in client or third-party content are those of the relevant author and not of Proactive Digital Solutions.

7. Third-party links

The Services may contain links to third-party websites and resources operated by parties other than us. We provide those links for convenience only.

We may modify, suspend or discontinue any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any such modification, suspension or discontinuation. We do not guarantee that the Services will be available continuously, error-free or secure.

9. Disclaimers and warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services and the Content are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we and our suppliers do not warrant that:

  • the Content is accurate, complete, current, reliable or fit for any particular purpose;
  • the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free;
  • any errors in the Services will be corrected; or
  • the Services or any servers that make them available are free of viruses or other harmful components.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any guarantees, warranties, conditions, rights or remedies that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable consumer protection or other law (including, in Australia, under the Australian Consumer Law). Where such laws apply and a guarantee, condition or warranty is implied that cannot be excluded, our liability is limited (where the law permits) to re-supplying the Services or paying the cost of having them re-supplied.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither Proactive Digital Solutions nor any of our suppliers, licensors, group companies, directors, officers, employees or agents will be liable to you (whether in contract, tort (including negligence), under statute or otherwise) for:

  • any indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages;
  • any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, business, contracts, anticipated savings or opportunity; or
  • any loss or corruption of data,

arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Services or the Content, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Services and these Terms — whether in contract, tort or otherwise — is limited to the greater of (a) the amount (if any) paid by you to us for use of the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim and (b) one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100).

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded — including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or under any non-excludable consumer protection law.

11. Indemnity

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Proactive Digital Solutions, our group companies and our respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your use of the Services in breach of these Terms; (b) your breach of any applicable law; or (c) your infringement of any rights of any third party.

12. Privacy

Our collection and use of personal information in connection with the Services is described in our Privacy & Cookies Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page tells you when they were most recently revised. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to bring them to your attention. Your continued use of the Services after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

14. Governing law and jurisdiction

The governing law and the courts that will hear disputes about these Terms depend on the entity in our group that is providing the Services to you:

  • Proactive Group Holdings Inc. (Canada / United States) — these Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario.

  • IRM Pty Ltd (Australia / New Zealand) — these Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.

Where you are a consumer (as opposed to a business user), nothing in this clause deprives you of the protection of any mandatory laws of the country in which you live.

15. General

  • Entire agreement. These Terms (together with our Privacy & Cookies Policy and any other terms we expressly incorporate by reference, including the terms of any separate written agreement you have with us) constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of the Services.
  • No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision.
  • Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force.
  • Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or part of our business.
