Terms of Use

Who we are

ubcsenate is an independent, third-party website. It is not run by, endorsed by, or affiliated with the University of British Columbia, the UBC Vancouver Senate, the Senate Office, the Student Senate Caucus, the AMS, or The Ubyssey.

What the Website offers

The Website presents information about the UBC Vancouver Senate, including meetings, attendance, committees, and decisions, to make the Senate easier to follow. It is provided for general information only.

Accuracy

We work to keep the Website accurate and current, but we cannot promise it is complete or error-free. The official minutes, agendas, and records published by the UBC Vancouver Senate are the authoritative source. Please check them before relying on anything here for an important decision.

Nothing on the Website is legal, academic, or professional advice.

Acceptable use

You agree to use the Website lawfully and respectfully. You agree not to:

• interfere with or disrupt the Website or its servers;
• attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Website;
• use automated tools in a way that overloads or degrades the Website;
• present the Website, or content from it, as an official publication of UBC or the Senate.

Intellectual property

Official Senate documents shown or linked on the Website belong to their authors and the University of British Columbia. The design, summaries, and organization of the Website belong to ubcsenate. You may link to the Website and quote short excerpts with credit and a link back. Other copying or republishing needs our permission.

Third-party content and links

The Website may link to or display content from other websites. We do not control that content and are not responsible for it. Their terms and policies apply when you use them.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Website is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted, or free of errors.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ubcsenate and the people who operate it are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the Website or your reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Corrections and takedown requests

If something on the Website is wrong, the official Senate record is the place it gets corrected. This Website is updated to follow that record.

Changes to the Website and these terms

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website, and we may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. Continuing to use the Website after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Any dispute will be decided by the courts of British Columbia.
