These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of kcareno.com ("the Site"), operated by Kappes, Cassiday & Associates ("KCA," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing, browsing, downloading from, or otherwise using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
If you are using the Site on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
All content on the Site — including text, graphics, photography, technical papers, brochures, drawings, schematics, code, design elements, KCA trademarks, and the KCA name and logo — is owned by KCA or licensed for our use, and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws.
You may view, download, and print Site materials for personal, non-commercial, internal-evaluation use only, provided that you retain all copyright and proprietary notices. Any other use — including reproduction, public display, distribution, modification, republication, posting to other websites, framing, or commercial use — is prohibited without our prior written permission. Requests: info@kcareno.com.
"KCA," "Kappes, Cassiday & Associates," "LIFTERBOTTLE," "Carbon Converter," and the KCA logo are trademarks or service marks of Kappes, Cassiday & Associates. Use of these marks without express written permission is strictly prohibited.
Content on kcareno.com is for general information only. It does not constitute engineering advice, a metallurgical opinion, a feasibility study, a quotation, or a formal proposal. Project-specific engagements require a signed services agreement and scope of work executed by an authorized representative of KCA.
You should not act or refrain from acting on the basis of Site content without seeking professional engineering advice tailored to your specific project, ore characteristics, jurisdiction, and operating conditions.
Project descriptions, capacity figures, recovery rates, capital-cost estimates, and schedules on this Site may include forward-looking statements. Actual results depend on site conditions, ore characteristics, regulatory environment, market conditions, and execution factors, and may differ materially from descriptions or estimates published on the Site. KCA disclaims any obligation to update or correct such statements.
The Site may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., client investor-relations pages, vendor sites, regulatory references). KCA does not control and is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, security, or accuracy of those websites. Inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement.
If you submit information to KCA through a contact form, brochure request, employment inquiry, or other Site mechanism, you represent that the information is accurate and that you have the right to provide it. You grant KCA a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to use such information for the purposes for which it was submitted (e.g., responding to your inquiry, evaluating an employment application, preparing a proposal).
Do not submit information that is confidential or proprietary to a third party without that party's permission.
You agree not to:
THE SITE AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. KCA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KCA AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless KCA and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and agents from any claim, liability, damage, loss, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any rights of a third party; or (d) any content you submit to KCA.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
You agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Washoe County, Nevada, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
Before filing any formal legal action, you agree to first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute by contacting us at info@kcareno.com and allowing 30 days for response and resolution discussion.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, for any reason, including violation of these Terms, without notice. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law) shall survive.
We may modify these Terms at any time by posting a revised version on the Site. The "Effective" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be highlighted for at least 30 days. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any signed services agreement between you and KCA, constitute the entire agreement between you and KCA regarding the Site, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings.
