Licence and terms for toolkits and templates

These terms apply to everything sold from the store at workadvised.com by Workadvised, operating as Work, Advised. ("we", "us"): our toolkits, the Complete HR Toolkit Library, our single templates, and every template, checklist and guide inside them (together, "products"). By buying a product, you ("you", the buyer, and the organization you buy for) agree to them.

1. Your licence

One purchase gives one organization, including all of its locations and employees, a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use, edit and adapt the product for its own internal purposes, for as long as it likes. You may put the templates on your own letterhead and remove our name from them. The Complete HR Toolkit Library is one purchase and carries one licence for everything in it.

A provincial version is written for that province's law. If you have employees in more than one province, you need the version for each province they work in.

You may not:

• resell, sublicense, give away or publish a product, edited or not;
• share it with another organization, including clients, franchisees or members;
• use it to build a product or service you sell, such as your own template library.

Consultants, HR firms, accountants and associations who want to use our products with their clients or members need a separate licence. Get in touch and we'll set one up.

We keep all copyright and other rights in the products.

2. Not legal advice

Our products are general information, current to the date stated in each one and, for a provincial version, to that province. They are not legal advice, they don't create an advisor-client relationship, and they can't account for the facts of your situation. Employment law changes, and courts regularly decide that a clause which looked fine isn't enforceable. Single templates are written to work anywhere in Canada outside Quebec unless the title says otherwise (for example, our Ontario-only policies); check that they suit your province before you rely on them.

You are responsible for how you use a product. For a termination, an investigation, or any matter that could become a complaint or a lawsuit, have your documents reviewed by an employment lawyer or an HR professional before you act. We offer that review as a paid service.

3. Updates

If a change in the law that a product is built on means it needs updating within 12 months of your purchase, we'll email the updated version to the address you bought with, at no charge. Whether and when an update is needed is our call, and an update doesn't change what you've already done with the earlier version.

4. Delivery and refunds

You can download your product right after paying, and we email you a download link that works for 14 days. Please save a copy; we can resend a link if you lose it.

Because our products are digital files you keep once downloaded, all sales are final. We will refund you in full if you were charged twice for the same product, or if a file won't open and we can't fix it for you. Email daniel@workadvised.com within 30 days of buying.

5. Prices and tax

Prices are in Canadian dollars before tax. GST/HST is added at checkout at the rate for the province on your billing address. Payment is handled by Stripe; we never see or store your card details.

6. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for anything to do with a product is limited to the amount you paid for it, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including any award, settlement, penalty or legal cost arising from how a product was used.

7. The rest

These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. We may update them for future purchases; the version that applies to you is the one in place when you bought. How we handle the personal information you give us when you buy is set out in our privacy policy.
