Conseil.dev

Terms and conditions

Last updated: April 19, 2026.

These Terms govern your use of the conseil.dev website and the relationship between you and conseil.dev when you use our services. By using the site or engaging us, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

conseil.dev is operated by conseil.dev, a sole proprietor based in Québec, Canada.

1. Who these Terms cover

  • Visitors — anyone browsing the site, reading blog posts, or downloading a lead magnet.
  • Subscribers — anyone who signs up for the newsletter or a checklist.
  • Clients — organizations that engage conseil.dev for a paid engagement under a separate written statement of work (SOW).

If a signed SOW conflicts with these Terms for a specific engagement, the SOW wins for that engagement.

2. Use of the website

You may use the site for lawful purposes. You agree not to:

  • Scrape, rate-limit-abuse, or attempt to extract the site's content at scale.
  • Reverse engineer, probe, or attack the site's security.
  • Use the site to send spam, harvest contact information, or train a model on its content without our written permission.
  • Impersonate anyone or misrepresent your affiliation with us.

We may block access, without notice, if we reasonably believe any of the above is occurring.

3. Content ownership

All content on the site — text, code examples, visuals, lead magnets, email sequences — is either owned by conseil.dev or licensed to us. You may:

  • Read, save, and share links freely.
  • Quote short excerpts (≤ 250 words) with attribution and a link back.

You may not:

  • Republish full posts, checklists, or email content elsewhere.
  • Remove our attribution or copyright notice.
  • Use the content for commercial training of machine-learning models without written permission.

You retain ownership of anything you submit (form messages, emails, etc.). You grant us a non-exclusive license to use it to respond to your request and deliver the services you asked for.

4. Lead magnets, newsletter, and email sequences

  • Lead magnets (checklists, guides) are free to use for your own business. They may not be rebranded or resold.
  • Subscribing to any lead magnet enrolls you in the corresponding email sequence. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe; unsubscribing stops all sequence emails within 10 business days (usually within minutes).
  • We do not sell, rent, or trade subscriber lists. See the Privacy Policy for details.

5. Discovery calls

A discovery call (typically 30 minutes via Cal.com) is free, not billed, and does not create a client relationship. Nothing said during a discovery call is a commitment to engage on either side, unless followed by a written SOW signed by both parties.

6. Paid engagements

Paid engagements are governed by:

  1. A written statement of work (SOW) describing scope, deliverables, timeline, and price.
  2. These Terms, for anything the SOW does not explicitly address.

Standard flat-fee engagements (including the AI Process Audit Sprint) include:

  • Flat price, invoiced 50% at kick-off and 50% on delivery, unless otherwise stated in the SOW.
  • Fixed scope and fixed timeline. Changes to scope during the engagement are handled with a short written change order.
  • Guarantee clause — if during the first week of mapping we determine that the work does not fit the offer, we stop and refund the first installment. This does not apply after the first week.
  • Deliverables are yours on full payment, including documentation, code, and prompts produced during the engagement.
  • Confidentiality in both directions — we do not share your information with third parties, and you keep our methodology confidential. NDAs can be signed on request before kick-off.

7. Payments, taxes, and late fees

  • All prices are in Canadian dollars (CAD) unless the SOW states otherwise.
  • Applicable GST and QST are added to invoices as required by Canadian and Québec tax law.
  • Invoices are due on receipt unless the SOW gives different payment terms.
  • Late fee: 1.5% per month on amounts overdue by more than 30 days.
  • Payment methods: Interac e-Transfer (preferred in Canada), credit card via Stripe, or bank transfer. We do not accept cheques or cash.

8. Warranties and limitations

We deliver our services with reasonable skill and care. Beyond that, the site and our services are provided "as is".

We do not warrant that:

  • The site will be error-free or uninterrupted.
  • AI-generated output we produce as part of a pilot will be perfect. AI systems can make mistakes; human review is an explicit part of every pilot we deliver.
  • A pilot will produce a specific business outcome. Business outcomes depend on your team's adoption and operating reality, which we do not control.

To the maximum extent permitted by Québec and Canadian law, our total liability for any claim arising from the site or our services is limited to the fees you paid us for the engagement that gave rise to the claim, in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages (loss of profit, loss of opportunity, loss of data, etc.).

Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law — for example, liability for gross negligence, intentional fault, or bodily injury.

9. Third-party links and tools

The site links to third-party services (Cal.com, Google, Vercel, Stripe, etc.). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those services. Their own terms apply when you use them.

10. Termination

Subscribers can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email.

Clients can terminate a paid engagement only as described in the SOW. In the absence of a termination clause in the SOW, either party can terminate with 10 business days' written notice; conseil.dev will invoice the time spent up to that point and deliver whatever is complete.

We may terminate your access to the site if you breach these Terms materially, or engage in behaviour listed in §2.

11. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Québec and the applicable laws of Canada.

Any dispute will be submitted to the courts of the judicial district of Québec City, and you consent to that jurisdiction.

Where the Consumer Protection Act (Québec) applies, it prevails over any contrary clause in these Terms.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. When we do, we change the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be notified to active subscribers by email. Continued use of the site after the update means you accept the new version.
