Terms of Service

By accessing or using ZoningLogic ("Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Terms on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after such modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

ZoningLogic is an AI-powered software platform that provides zoning feasibility analysis, 3D building envelope visualization, unit count calculations, overlay detection, and automated feasibility report generation tools. The Service is designed to assist users in understanding zoning regulations and building potential for properties. It is an informational research tool, not a professional service.

ZoningLogic is not licensed, registered, or regulated by any professional regulatory body, including but not limited to the Law Society of Ontario, the Ontario Association of Architects, Professional Engineers Ontario, the Ontario Professional Planners Institute, or their equivalents in any other province or territory.

Our feasibility reports are not substitutes for professional planning reports, planning opinions, legal opinions, or engineering assessments. They should not be submitted to municipal authorities as professional reports or relied upon as the sole basis for development applications, permit submissions, or property transactions.

During the beta phase, the Service is provided "as-is" and "as-available" with no warranties or guarantees. You acknowledge that:

By using the Service during beta, you agree to provide feedback and report issues to help us improve the platform, and you acknowledge the heightened risk of inaccuracies inherent in pre-release software.

The Service, including all content, features, functionality, software, and materials, is owned by ZoningLogic and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. While our Service is currently available in Ontario and we plan to expand to other provinces in the future, these Terms are governed by Ontario law regardless of where you access the Service.

Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the ADR Institute of Canada, Inc., except where prohibited by law. The arbitration shall be conducted in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada (or such other location as mutually agreed), in the English language.

You agree to waive any right to a jury trial and to participate in class action lawsuits, except where such waiver is prohibited by applicable law.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if modification is not possible, it shall be severed from these Terms, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance under these Terms which is due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, pandemics, network or infrastructure failures, third-party service provider failures (including AI model provider outages), or any other cause beyond our reasonable control.

In the event of such circumstances, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you and resume performance as soon as practicable.

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Legal Disclaimer, constitute the entire agreement between you and ZoningLogic regarding the Service.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect.
