Website Terms of Use

Section 1.01      Introduction

The following terms and conditions are the Terms of Use for our website: www.pantree.ca (the “Site”) made available by GoJava Inc. o/a Pantree (“Pantree”, “we”, “us” or “our”).

The purpose of the Site is to provide information, products, and services relating to Pantree’s mission, approach and initiatives.

The contents of the Site include, without limitation, all information, data, products, materials, services, software applications and tools, design elements, text, images, photographs, illustrations, audio and video contents, artwork, graphics contained therein or otherwise made available to you in connection therewith (collectively the “Contents”) and, unless the context clearly requires otherwise, or we explicitly say so in writing, the term “Site” includes all of the Contents.

These Terms of Use constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Pantree regarding your use of and access to the Site.

These Terms of Use do not alter in any way the terms and conditions of any other agreement you may have with Pantree, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Pantree.

Section 1.07      Links to Third-Party Sites

Use of certain links on the Site will direct you away from the Site to third party websites. Such third party websites are not under the control of Pantree, and Pantree is not responsible for the contents of any such website or any link contained in such website. The third party links included on the Site are provided for your convenience, and the inclusion of such links does not imply a recommendation or endorsement by Pantree of any such website or the products or services offered therein.

Section 1.08      Privacy and Personal Information

We may use your email address to verify your identity, protect against fraud, and contact you. In addition, we may use it to send you updates about your user account, new products and services, and Site updates. Your personal information will not be released to any third party. The list of Site members will not be bought, sold, loaned, re-appropriated, re-used, given or provided outside of Pantree for any reason. Any information you may receive from a third party via the Site will be facilitated and sent through Pantree, not through the third party.

Personal information submitted by users to the Site may be employed for the purposes of maintaining the integrity of the Site and its contents, contacting our users when necessary, and improving the quality of service provided by the Site. Pantree servers also collect information specific to how you use the Internet. Pantree servers note details such as the server you are logged onto and your IP address. This information is obtained solely for the purpose of maintaining the Site’s integrity and improving our service. Pantree may ask you for more personal information from time to time in a survey format. This information is specifically used to ensure that the Site is up-to-date and relevant, and that the products and services provided to you in advertising format are relevant and of interest to you. Any information used as demographics will not reveal the source, and will be kept secure. This further information provided by you is on an optional basis.

Pantree will employ a data measurement service for tracking the performance of an ad on behalf of the advertiser. The information collected will not contain personal elements, and will only be shared with that particular advertiser.

Pantree reserves the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Site(s); or to protect our company and our Members. While we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party “hackers” from illegally obtaining this information.

Section 1.09      Ownership of Intellectual Property Rights

The Site together with all trade-marks and other intellectual property displayed, distributed, or otherwise made available via the Site, is the exclusive property of Pantree, and its successors, assigns, licensors, and/or suppliers. Unless you have agreed otherwise in writing with Pantree, nothing in these Terms of Use gives you a right to use any of the Contents, Pantree’s trade-marks or other intellectual property of Pantree. You may not assign or transfer any of the Contents and you may not grant a license to use or access the Site to any party.

You may use the Site and the Contents solely for your non-commercial and limited personal use and for no other purposes.

No information or statement contained in these Terms of Use or the Site shall be construed as conferring, directly or by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license or right under any patent, copyright, trade-mark, or other intellectual property right of Pantree or any third party. You must not alter, delete, or conceal any copyright or other notices contained on the Site, including notices on any of the Contents that you are permitted to download, transmit, display, print, or reproduce from the Site.

You may not allow any third party (whether or not for your benefit) to reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, display, perform, publish, distribute, disseminate, broadcast or circulate to any third party (including, without limitation, on or via a third party website), or otherwise use, any Contents without the express prior written consent of Pantree or its owner if Pantree is not the owner.

Any unauthorized or prohibited use of any Contents may subject you to civil liability, criminal prosecution, or both, under applicable federal, provincial, state and local laws.

You may not create a link to the Site without Pantree’s prior permission. We may, however, if requested, grant a limited, nonexclusive right to create a link to the Site provided that such link is to the entry page of the Site and does not portray Pantree or any of its activities or services in a false, misleading, derogatory, or otherwise negative manner.

The limited rights granted to you under these Terms of Use may be revoked by Pantree at any time for any reason whatsoever.

Links to third party websites on the Site are provided solely as a convenience to you. If you use these links, you will leave the Site. Pantree does not control and is not responsible for any of such third party websites, their content or their policies, including, without limitation, privacy policies or lack thereof. Pantree does not endorse or make any representations about such third party websites or any information, software, products and services located there, or any results that may be obtained from using such software, products and services. If you decide to access any of the third party websites linked to the Site, you do so entirely at your own risk. You acknowledge and agree that Pantree shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by, or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such third party websites.

If you want to terminate your account with Pantree, you may do so by closing your account, where Pantree has made this option available to you.

Pantree may at any time, terminate your use of the Site if:

  • you have breached any provision of these Terms of Use (or have acted in a manner which clearly shows that you do not intend to, or are unable to comply with the provisions of the Terms of Use);

  • the partner with whom Pantree offered the services to you has terminated its relationship with Pantree or ceased to offer the services to you;
  • Pantree is transitioning to no longer providing the Site to users in the country in which you are resident or from which you use the Site; or
  • the provision of the Site to you by Pantree is, in Pantree’s opinion, no longer commercially viable.

When these Terms of Use come to an end, all of the legal rights, obligations and liabilities that you and Pantree have benefited from, been subject to (or which have accrued over time while the Terms of Use have been in force) or which are expressed to continue indefinitely, shall be unaffected by such termination.

Section 1.15      Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Pantree and its successors and assigns, and any of their respective officers, directors, employees, members, agents, representatives, licensors, advertisers, and suppliers from any liability, loss, claim, and expense (including reasonable legal fees) related to (a) your violation of these Terms of Use, and (b) your use of the Site.

You agree that Pantree may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms of Use, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Site.

You agree that if Pantree does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in these Terms of Use (or which Pantree has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Pantree’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Pantree.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, this will not affect any other provision of these Terms of Use and the agreement between you and us will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to make it legal, valid, and enforceable.

The laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws applicable therein shall govern these Terms of Use in all respects, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
