In short. These terms govern your use of the Banasco Group website and anything you send us through it. They do not create a consulting relationship. Consulting work is governed separately by a signed statement of work or master services agreement and where those documents conflict with these terms, those documents control.

1. Who we are
This website is operated by Banasco Group ("Banasco Group", "we", "us", or "our"), a management and digital consulting practice with operations in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and Miami, Florida, United States. You can reach us at hello@banascogroup.com.
2. Acceptance of these terms
By accessing or using banascogroup.com and any of its pages, forms, or content (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms and Conditions (the "Terms"). If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
If you are using the Site on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms and "you" refers to both you and that organization.
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Site. The Site is intended for business use and is not directed at children.
3. What this website is and is not
The Site describes our capabilities, our approach and the types of problems we work on. Everything published on it is provided for general information only.
Nothing on the Site is:
- professional, legal, financial, tax, accounting, or investment advice;
- a recommendation to take or refrain from any particular business action;
- an offer, quote, or commitment to provide services on any particular terms;
- a guarantee, prediction, or warranty of any business result.
Any outcomes, metrics, case descriptions, or examples referenced on the Site reflect specific circumstances and are not a promise of comparable results in your situation. You should not act on Site content without seeking advice appropriate to your own facts.
4. Consulting engagements
Submitting a form, exchanging emails, or holding an introductory conversation does not create a consulting, advisory, fiduciary, agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship between us.
We provide services only under a written agreement signed by both parties, such as a statement of work, engagement letter, or master services agreement (an "Engagement Agreement"). That Engagement Agreement will set out scope, deliverables, fees, timelines, ownership of work product, confidentiality, warranties and liability for the work itself. Where an Engagement Agreement addresses a subject also addressed here, the Engagement Agreement governs.
5. Inquiries and information you submit
When you contact us through the Site, you agree that:
- the information you provide is accurate and you are entitled to provide it;
- you will not submit sensitive personal information, regulated data such as health or payment card data, trade secrets, or material non public information through the Site forms or by unsecured email;
- we may contact you at the email address you provide in order to respond to your inquiry.
Before you send anything confidential. Information you send us before an Engagement Agreement or a signed non disclosure agreement is in place is not treated as confidential and we cannot accept a duty of confidentiality over it. Keep your first message high level. Once an appropriate agreement is signed, confidentiality obligations apply as set out in that agreement.
If you send us feedback, suggestions, or ideas about our services or the Site, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty free licence to use them without restriction or compensation.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Site for any unlawful, fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful purpose;
- submit false, misleading, or impersonating information, including someone else's contact details;
- send unsolicited commercial messages, spam, or bulk solicitations through our forms or contact addresses;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its servers, or any connected system;
- introduce malware, viruses, or any other harmful code;
- scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically extract Site content, or use automated means to collect data from the Site, except for standard search engine indexing that respects our robots file;
- use Site content to train, fine tune, or otherwise develop a machine learning or artificial intelligence model without our prior written permission;
- interfere with the operation, security, or availability of the Site, including through excessive request volume;
- reproduce, republish, resell, or commercially exploit Site content without our written permission.
We may suspend or block access to the Site at our discretion where we reasonably believe this section has been breached.
7. Intellectual property
All content on the Site, including text, graphics, logos, icons, images, layout, design, structure, frameworks, methodologies and software, is owned by Banasco Group or its licensors and is protected by Canadian, United States and international intellectual property laws.
The Banasco Group name and logo are our trademarks. Nothing on the Site grants any licence or right to use them.
You may view the Site and print or download individual pages for your own internal, non commercial reference, provided you do not modify the content and you keep all proprietary notices intact. All other rights are reserved.
Ownership of work product created during a consulting engagement is determined solely by the applicable Engagement Agreement and is not affected by this section.
8. Confidentiality
Any confidentiality obligations between us arise only under a signed non disclosure agreement or Engagement Agreement. Absent such an agreement and as noted in section 5, material you send through the Site is not confidential. We nonetheless handle personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and apply reasonable safeguards to inquiries we receive.
9. Third party sites and services
The Site may link to third party websites or embed third party services, including analytics providers. Those links and services are provided for convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, or privacy practices. Accessing them is at your own risk and subject to their own terms.
10. Disclaimers
The Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all representations, warranties and conditions of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy and non infringement.
We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error free, that defects will be corrected, or that the Site or its servers are free of harmful components. We do not warrant that Site content is complete, current, or accurate at any given time.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions above apply only to the extent permitted and you may have rights that these Terms cannot limit.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Banasco Group and its principals, employees, contractors and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, data, or anticipated savings, arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Site, whether in contract, tort including negligence, statute, or otherwise and whether or not we were advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Site and these Terms will not exceed one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100).
Liability arising from consulting services is governed exclusively by the applicable Engagement Agreement.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, including liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or death or personal injury caused by negligence.
12. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Banasco Group and its principals, employees, contractors and affiliates from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and reasonable legal costs arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, or your violation of any law or third party right in connection with your use of the Site.
13. Privacy
Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.
14. Changes to the site and these terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice. We may also update these Terms from time to time. The version posted on this page is the version in effect and the "last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Your continued use of the Site after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Site are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable in that province, without regard to conflict of law principles. You and Banasco Group submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario, sitting in Toronto.
If you are a consumer resident in a jurisdiction whose law grants you the right to bring proceedings locally or to the protection of mandatory consumer laws, nothing in this section removes that right.
To the extent permitted by law, you and Banasco Group agree that any dispute will be brought in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding.
Any claim relating to the Site must be brought within one year of the event giving rise to it, except where a longer period is required by law.
16. General
Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Banasco Group regarding the Site and supersede any prior understanding on that subject.
Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed and the remaining provisions stay in force.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them in connection with a reorganization, merger, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.
Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
Language. The parties have requested that these Terms and all related documents be drawn up in English. Les parties ont demandé que la présente convention et tous les documents s'y rattachant soient rédigés en anglais.
