Important notice, this is not legal advice

Aptia provides diagnostic, training and documentation services related to artificial-intelligence literacy and compliance. The content of this site, as well as our products and services, are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice or a legal opinion. They create no lawyer-client relationship and are no substitute for advice from a legal professional. For any question relating to your specific situation, including matters involving Law 25, the AI Act or the ISO 42001 standard, please consult a qualified legal advisor.

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing and using the Aptia website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to these terms of use. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site or our services.

These terms apply to all visitors and users of the site.

2. Description of services

Aptia offers AI literacy diagnostic, training, attestation and compliance documentation services. These services aim to make an organization's due-diligence effort measurable and demonstrable.

Aptia does not certify an organization's compliance and is no substitute for its legal obligations, internal policies or technical measures.

3. Registration and user account

Some services require you to create an account. You agree to provide accurate, up-to-date information and to keep your credentials confidential. You are responsible for all activity carried out through your account.

You must have the legal capacity to enter into a contract and, when acting on behalf of an organization, hold the authority required to bind it.

4. Subscriptions, plans and billing

The AI literacy diagnostic is offered free of charge. Advanced features are available through paid plans (Solo, Team, Enterprise), whose terms and prices are described on our Pricing page.

The Team plan requires a minimum of 5 seats: a $25/month billing floor applies, and these seats are billed even if not all of them are used.

Unless otherwise stated, subscriptions are billed in advance, per cycle (monthly or as per the chosen plan), and renew automatically at each term until cancelled. Prices are stated in Canadian dollars, excluding applicable taxes.

Aptia may change its prices; any change applicable to an ongoing subscription will be communicated to you in advance and will take effect on the following billing cycle.

5. Right of withdrawal and refund (14 days)

For any first paid subscription, you have a period of fourteen (14) days from the date of the initial payment to request cancellation and a full refund, with no need to provide a reason.

To exercise this right, contact us through our contact page before the deadline expires. The refund is issued to the original payment method within a reasonable time.

This 14-day withdrawal period does not apply to renewals of an already ongoing subscription, nor to custom services (Enterprise plan) already started at your express request.

Outside this 14-day window, all payments are final and non-refundable: no refund, full or prorated, is granted for renewals, for partially used billing periods, or after cancellation.

6. Cancellation and termination

You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account or by contacting us. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep access to the paid services until that date. No prorated refund is granted for a period already started, subject to the 14-day right of withdrawal set out above.

Aptia may suspend or terminate your access, with reasonable notice where circumstances permit, in the event of a breach of these terms, non-payment or misuse of the services.

Upon termination, access to paid features ceases. You may ask us to export your data within the limits provided by law and our privacy practices.

7. Intellectual property

All content on this site, text, images, logos, trademarks, graphics and software, is the property of Aptia or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Any unauthorized reproduction, distribution or use of this content is prohibited without the prior written consent of Aptia.

8. Acceptable use

You agree to use the site and services lawfully and not to infringe the rights of Aptia or third parties.

In particular, you may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems, disrupt the operation of the site, or use the services for fraudulent or unlawful purposes.

To the extent permitted by law, Aptia disclaims all liability for any direct or indirect damages arising from the use of, or inability to use, the site or services.
