Last updated: January 2025

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website operated by BOMCAS Canada (“BOMCAS Canada”, “we”, “us” or “our”). By accessing, browsing or otherwise using this website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, please discontinue use of the website. These Terms apply to all visitors and users across Alberta and elsewhere.

Please read these Terms carefully. They contain important information about your legal rights, remedies and obligations, including limitations and exclusions of liability and the law that governs the relationship between you and BOMCAS Canada.

1. About this website and our services

This website provides general information about BOMCAS Canada and the accounting, tax, bookkeeping, payroll, audit, assurance and advisory services we offer to individuals and businesses throughout Alberta. The website is an informational and marketing resource; it is not a platform through which professional services are rendered. Any professional engagement is established separately, as described below.

2. Not professional advice

The content on this website — including articles, guides, checklists, deadlines, frequently asked questions and service descriptions — is provided for general information purposes only and does not constitute professional accounting, tax, financial, investment or legal advice, nor does it create an accountant-client or any other professional relationship. Tax and accounting outcomes depend heavily on individual facts and circumstances. You should not act, or refrain from acting, on the basis of any content on this website without first obtaining advice from a qualified professional who has reviewed your specific situation. Reliance on any information on this website is strictly at your own risk.

3. How a professional relationship is formed

Submitting an enquiry through our contact form, sending us an email, calling us, or requesting a free consultation does not, by itself, create a professional engagement or obligate us to provide services. A professional relationship with BOMCAS Canada begins only when both parties have agreed on the scope of work and a written engagement letter or agreement has been put in place. Until that point, please do not send us confidential or highly sensitive information except through the secure channels we direct you to use.

4. Accuracy and currency of information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information on this website is accurate and current at the time of publication. However, tax laws, CRA administrative positions, filing deadlines, rates and thresholds change frequently, and we do not warrant that all content is complete, current or free from error. We may update, modify, suspend or remove content at any time without notice. Before relying on any figure, deadline or rule mentioned on this website, you should confirm the current position with us directly or with the Canada Revenue Agency.

5. Permitted use of the website

You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of, or restrict or inhibit the use and enjoyment of, the website by any third party. You must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website, its servers, or any connected systems; introduce viruses, malware or other harmful code; scrape, harvest or collect information about other users; or use the website to transmit unsolicited or unauthorised advertising. We reserve the right to restrict or terminate your access to the website if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms.

6. Intellectual property

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, the BOMCAS Canada name and brand, images, icons, page layouts and the selection and arrangement of content — is owned by or licensed to BOMCAS Canada and is protected by Canadian and international copyright, trademark and other intellectual-property laws. You may view, download and print content from this website for your own personal, non-commercial reference, provided you do not remove any copyright or proprietary notices. You may not otherwise reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, sell or exploit any content without our prior written permission.

7. Third-party links and resources

This website may contain links to third-party websites and resources, such as the Canada Revenue Agency, software providers and other reference materials. These links are provided for your convenience only. We do not control, endorse or assume responsibility for the content, accuracy, policies or practices of any third-party website, and accessing them is at your own risk. We encourage you to review the terms and privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

This website and all content on it are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, BOMCAS Canada disclaims all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, and does not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, BOMCAS Canada and its principals, employees and agents will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your access to, use of, or inability to use this website or any content on it, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law. This limitation applies to the website only and is separate from the terms of any professional engagement, which are governed by your engagement agreement.

10. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless BOMCAS Canada and its principals, employees and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or connected with your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the website.

11. Privacy

Your use of this website is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, protect and disclose personal information in accordance with Canadian privacy law. By using this website, you consent to the practices described in that policy.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology or the law. The “Last updated” date above indicates when these Terms were last revised. Any changes take effect when posted on this page, and your continued use of the website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

13. Governing law

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or your use of this website are governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. You agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Alberta in respect of any such dispute.
