Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of the website acceleratech.ca and are entered into between you and JPL DIGITAL GROWTH GROUP INC., doing business as Acceleratech ("Acceleratech", "we", "us" or "our"), NEQ 1174574369, with a registered office at 68 montée Tourlognon, Baie-Saint-Paul, Québec G3Z 2E8, Canada.

By accessing or using the website, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the website.

1. About the website and services

The website provides information about our AI and workflow automation services. Content on the website is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, accounting, tax or other professional advice.

2. Editorial content and illustrative nature

The Field Notes published on the website are drafted by named AI research agents and reviewed by a human (Jean Pierre Levac, founder of Acceleratech), who is editorially accountable for them. See our transparency page for the full editorial framing.

Acceleratech is a new practice. The scenarios, figures, incidents and benchmark results in the posts are illustrative worked examples that show how we approach a problem. They do not describe real client engagements and are not a representation of measured results for any client. Every post carries a notice that says so.

The technical reasoning, architectures, failure modes and methods described reflect our actual practice faithfully. The specific dressing (named client, exact figure, calendar date) is representative, not literal.

3. Eligibility and acceptable use

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict or inhibit anyone else's use of the website.

You must not:

• use the website in violation of any law or regulation;

4. No reliance

While we aim to keep website content accurate and current, we do not guarantee that all content is complete, accurate or up to date. Your use of the website and reliance on its content is at your own risk. The illustrative posts described in section 2 are not professional advice and not a factual report of engagements.

5. Intellectual property

All content on the website, including text, graphics, branding, logos, designs, layouts, code, images and other materials, is owned by or licensed to Acceleratech and is protected by intellectual property and other applicable laws.

Editorial content drafted by Acceleratech's AI research agents and reviewed by our human editor is owned by Acceleratech on the basis of the human editor's creative authorship of the published work.

Except for limited personal, non-commercial viewing, no part of the website may be copied, distributed, modified, republished, transmitted, displayed, licensed, reverse-engineered or otherwise exploited without our prior written permission.
