12. Modifications to Terms

We may update these Terms periodically without notice. Continued use after the effective date of any update constitutes acceptance.

13. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

13.1 Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms (collectively, “Disputes”) are governed by, and must be construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law provisions.

13.2 Informal Resolution

Before either party initiates formal proceedings, the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve any Dispute through informal negotiation. A party that intends to seek relief must first send the other party a written notice describing the nature of the dispute and the requested relief. If the parties cannot resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the notice is received, either party may proceed as set out below.

13.3 Small-Claims Option

Either party may bring an individual action for monetary or equitable relief in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction in Ontario, provided the claim is within that court’s limit and is not joined to any other action.

13.4 Binding Arbitration

Except for Disputes that qualify for small-claims court or involve injunctive relief for intellectual-property misuse, any remaining Dispute must be resolved by final, binding arbitration under the Arbitration Rules of the Canadian Arbitration Association (the “CAA Rules”).

• Seat and Venue. The arbitration will be seated in Ontario, Canada, and the hearing will take place virtually or in Ontario, unless the arbitrator orders otherwise.
  
• Arbitrator. The tribunal will consist of one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with the CAA Rules.
  
• Language. Proceedings will be conducted in English.
  
• Confidentiality. Both parties must keep the existence of the arbitration, all materials, and the award confidential, except as may be necessary to enforce the award or as otherwise required by law.

• Costs. Each party will bear its own costs and share the arbitrator’s fees equally, unless the arbitrator allocates costs differently in the award.

13.5 Class-Action Waiver

You and Referably agree to resolve Disputes only on an individual basis. Neither party may participate in or bring a claim as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding or arbitration.

13.6 Severability of Dispute-Resolution Terms

If any portion of this Section 13 is found unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder will remain in full force, except that the class-action waiver in §13.5 will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

14. Data Security and Retention

We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards intended to protect your personal and business information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. These measures may include encryption, secure hosting, access controls, and monitoring practices.

We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in these Terms or as required by law. After account closure or a valid deletion request, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify your information unless legally obligated to retain it.

We may access, preserve, or disclose your information if required to do so by law or if we believe in good faith that such access, preservation, or disclosure is reasonably necessary to:

• Comply with a legal obligation or lawful request by public authorities (e.g. subpoena, court order);
  
• Enforce these Terms;
  
• Detect, prevent, or address fraud, security, or technical issues;
  
• Protect the rights, property, or safety of Referably, our users, or the public.
  

While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a data breach occurs that may compromise your personal information, we will notify you in accordance with applicable laws.

15. Export Control Policy

Referably services and software may be subject to export and re-export control laws and regulations of Canada and other jurisdictions, including but not limited to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (EAR).

This includes your profile information, manually added contacts, referral history, and any offers or content you have created.
