Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of nextversionready.it.com (the "Site") and any consultation services provided by ClearPath Computing ("we," "us," or "our"), 110 Poplar St, Wilmington, DE 19801, United States. By using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Who we are and what we provide

ClearPath Computing is an independent educational resource and consultation service. We publish general information about keeping a computer's operating system current and planning an upgrade, and we offer optional, paid general consultation by phone or email.

We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any operating system, software or hardware manufacturer. We are not an official support provider for any product, and we do not provide manufacturer warranty service.

2. What we do not provide

• We do not sell, license or distribute software.
• We do not offer downloads or remote-access tools, and we do not access your devices remotely.
• We do not request passwords, payment card details or government ID numbers through the Site.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, to request consultation services. If you use the Site on behalf of an organization, you confirm you are authorized to accept these Terms for it.

4. Consultation services and pricing

Pricing is provided before any paid service begins. We will describe the scope and price in writing (typically by email), and no fee is charged unless you agree. Specific payment, scheduling and cancellation terms will be included in that written quote and form part of these Terms for that engagement. Payment is never collected through this Site's contact form.

Consultation is advisory. You remain responsible for decisions about your devices and for carrying out any steps on them, including making and verifying backups.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms
• Submit false information or impersonate any person
• Attempt to interfere with the Site's security or operation, or access it by automated means that place an unreasonable load on it
• Send malicious code, spam, or sensitive data such as passwords or payment details through our forms

6. Intellectual property

The Site's text, illustrations, design and layout are owned by ClearPath Computing or used with permission and are protected by US copyright law. You may view, print and share pages for personal or internal business, non-commercial use, provided you keep this notice and do not modify the content. Any other use requires our written permission.

7. Information only; no guarantees

Content on the Site is general educational information. Computers, software and requirements vary and change over time. We try to keep information accurate and current, but we do not guarantee that it is complete, error-free or suitable for your situation. Please also read our Disclaimer.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ClearPath Computing will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits or business, arising from your use of the Site or our services. Our total liability for any claim relating to a paid consultation will not exceed the amount you paid us for that consultation. Some states do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ClearPath Computing from claims arising out of your misuse of the Site or your violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by law.

11. Third-party links

The Site may reference other websites. We do not control and are not responsible for their content or practices.

12. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy explain how we handle information and are part of these Terms.

13. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days. Any claim that is not resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware, and you consent to their jurisdiction, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim where you live.

14. Changes

We may update these Terms. The effective date above shows when they were last revised. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

15. Miscellaneous

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. These Terms, together with any written quote for consultation, are the entire agreement between you and us about their subject.
