Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Meeting Guardian at https://meetingguardian.ebenezerconsulting.ca, you agree to these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. About Meeting Guardian

Meeting Guardian is a meeting alarm and recovery assistant operated by Ebenezer Consulting. It helps you track upcoming meetings, optionally sync events from your Google primary calendar, set importance levels, receive in-browser alarms and notifications, and generate automated prep suggestions and late-message text.

The service is provided as an early-stage product. Features may change, and some capabilities described on the site may be added or modified over time.

3. Eligibility

You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction to use the service. The service is not intended for children under 13 years of age (or the applicable age of digital consent in your region).

4. Accounts and Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You must provide accurate account information and notify us promptly of unauthorized use.

Account access uses email and password. Google is used only if you optionally connect Google Calendar; it is not used to sign you into your account.

5. Calendar Connections and User Permissions

If you connect Google Calendar, you authorize read-only access so we can import events from your Google primary calendar. You control whether to connect or disconnect at any time.

You represent that you have the right to connect any calendar account you link to the service.

6. Alerts and No Guarantee

Meeting Guardian provides reminders, alarms, and related signals to help you prepare for meetings. However, we do not guarantee that notifications, alarms, calendar sync, or other alerts will always be accurate, timely, or delivered.

Alarms and browser notifications generally require an open browser tab and appropriate device and browser permissions. Network issues, device settings, Do Not Disturb modes, and other factors may prevent delivery.

You remain solely responsible for attending meetings and verifying your schedule. The service is not a substitute for your calendar, workplace policies, or professional advice of any kind (including legal, HR, medical, or financial advice).

7. Automated Output Disclaimer

Prep suggestions and late-message text are generated automatically using rule-based templates. They may be incomplete, generic, or inaccurate. You must review all outputs before relying on them or sending them to others.

We do not guarantee the correctness, tone, or suitability of any automated content.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the service for unlawful purposes.
• Abuse Google APIs or violate Google's terms.
• Attempt to access other users' data or circumvent security.
• Reverse engineer, interfere with, or disrupt the service.
• Upload malicious code or use the service to harass, spam, or harm others.

9. Fees and Subscriptions

Some features may be offered under free, trial, or paid plans. If paid features are introduced, fees, billing cycles, cancellation, and refund terms will be presented at checkout or in updated terms.

Payment processing may be handled by third parties such as Stripe. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers.

10. Intellectual Property

Ebenezer Consulting owns the Meeting Guardian application, software, branding, and related materials, except for content you provide.

You retain ownership of your calendar data and meeting content. You grant us a limited license to process that content solely to provide and improve the service.

11. Third-Party Services

The service integrates with third parties such as Google Calendar, hosting providers, and (in the future) payment processors. Those services have their own terms and privacy policies.

We are not responsible for third-party outages, policy changes, or actions outside our reasonable control.

12. Service Changes and Availability

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability unless we agree otherwise in a separate written agreement.

13. Termination

You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, create risk or legal exposure, fail to pay applicable fees, or for other reasonable business reasons.

14. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

15. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EBENEZER CONSULTING AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, REPUTATIONAL HARM, DATA LOSS, OR MISSED MEETINGS, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.

Our total liability for any claim arising from or related to the service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the service in the twelve (12) months before the claim, or (b) one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100), if you have not paid any fees.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

16. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Ebenezer Consulting and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.

17. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

You agree that courts located in Alberta, Canada have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms, except where consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction require otherwise.

18. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms with a new effective date on this page. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
