AI-Powered Assessment Tools

Our website offers AI-powered tools, including a chat interface and a voice agent, to conduct preliminary consulting assessments. By using these tools, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

  • Not professional advice: Responses generated by our AI tools are preliminary in nature and are intended to gather information and provide general guidance. They do not constitute professional consulting advice, and should not be relied upon as a substitute for a direct consultation with Dale Simpson.
  • No guarantee of accuracy: AI-generated responses may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies. Dale Simpson Consulting does not warrant the completeness, reliability, or accuracy of any information provided by the AI tools.
  • Human follow-up: The AI assessment is designed as a first step toward a consulting engagement. Meaningful recommendations and professional advice are provided only through direct consultation with Dale Simpson.
  • Data use: Information you provide during AI-assisted assessments may be reviewed by Dale Simpson to prepare for follow-up consultations. For full details on how your data is handled, please see our Privacy Policy.
  • Optional use: Use of the AI tools is entirely voluntary. You may contact us directly at any time instead.
  • Acceptable use: You agree not to use the AI tools to generate harmful, illegal, abusive, or misleading content, or to attempt to manipulate the tools to produce responses outside their intended purpose.

All content on this website, including text, graphics, images, photographs, videos, and other material, is the property of Dale Simpson Consulting and is protected by Canadian and international copyright and intellectual property laws. You may not distribute, modify, reproduce, publish, or use the content of our site for commercial, marketing, or any other unauthorized purposes without our prior written consent.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Our website and all services, including AI-powered assessment tools, are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Dale Simpson Consulting disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that any content, including AI-generated responses, will be accurate, reliable, or complete.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Dale Simpson Consulting, its owner, and its service providers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your use of the website or its services, including the AI-powered assessment tools.

In no event shall our total liability to you for all claims arising from or related to the use of the website or services exceed the amount you have paid to Dale Simpson Consulting, if any, in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

This limitation applies regardless of the theory of liability, whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, even if Dale Simpson Consulting has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Dale Simpson Consulting and its owner from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your access to or use of the website or services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.

Termination

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. We will provide at least 30 days’ notice prior to any material changes taking effect by posting a notice on our website.
