Terms of Use
Last updated: May 26, 2026
Welcome
These Terms of Use ("Terms") form an agreement between you and Cultivar Collective, a recruiting agency based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They govern your use of cultivarcollective.ca (the "Site").
By visiting or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Site.
These Terms apply to everyone who visits cultivarcollective.ca, whether you're a candidate exploring opportunities, a company considering working with us, or someone who landed here by curiosity.
You must be at least 18 years old to use the Site. By using cultivarcollective.ca, you confirm that you meet this requirement.
If you have questions about these Terms, you can reach us at info@cultivarcollective.ca.
What these Terms cover
These Terms cover your use of our website — the pages you read, the content you view, the forms you fill out, and any other interactions you have with cultivarcollective.ca.
These Terms do not govern our recruiting services. If you're working with us as a candidate or engaging us as a client, your relationship with Cultivar Collective is governed by separate agreements specific to that work, including:
Engagement agreements with clients who retain us for a search
Consent and communication agreements with candidates we represent
Confidentiality and other terms specific to each relationship
If anything in these Terms appears to conflict with the agreements that govern your recruiting relationship with us, those separate agreements take precedence for the work we're doing together.
Your use of the Site is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is available at cultivarcollective.ca/privacy-policy and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
Use of the website
You're welcome to browse cultivarcollective.ca, read our content, learn about our work, and contact us through the channels we provide. That's what the Site is for.
When using the Site, please don't:
Copy, reproduce, or redistribute our content for commercial purposes without our permission
Scrape, mine, or harvest data from the Site through automated tools or bots
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Site, our systems, or our infrastructure
Use the Site to transmit malware, viruses, or any other harmful code
Interfere with the proper functioning of the Site or the experience of other visitors
Impersonate Cultivar Collective, our team, or anyone else
Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms
Use information collected from the Site (such as contact details) to send unsolicited messages or for any commercial outreach we haven't authorized
If we believe someone is using the Site in a way that violates these Terms, we may restrict or block their access without notice.
Intellectual property
Everything on cultivarcollective.ca — including our written content, brand name, logo, framework names, visual design, and other materials — is the property of Cultivar Collective unless otherwise indicated. This includes original content like our founder story, the Cultivar Approach framework, and the language we use to describe our values, services, and methodology.
Cultivar Collective™ and The Cultivar Approach™ are trademarks of Cultivar Collective. Other product, service, or company names referenced on the Site may be trademarks of their respective owners.
You're welcome to read, share, and reference our content in the ways you'd naturally engage with any business website. For example:
Sharing a link to our site
Quoting a small portion of our content with attribution
Mentioning Cultivar Collective in articles, social media, or conversations
What's not okay without our written permission:
Copying substantial portions of our content for use elsewhere
Republishing our content on other websites or in publications
Using our brand name, logo, or visual identity in ways that could suggest endorsement or affiliation
Using our framework names or methodology language as if they were your own
Adapting or modifying our content to create derivative works for commercial use
Some elements of our website — including certain images, icons, or graphics — are licensed from third parties. Those elements remain the property of their respective owners and are used by Cultivar Collective under license.
If you'd like to use our content in a way that goes beyond what's described here, please reach out to us at info@cultivarcollective.ca. We're often happy to grant permission for thoughtful uses.
User submissions
Our website includes contact forms and email links that let you reach out to us. When you submit information through these channels — your name, email, message, resume, or any other details you choose to share — that information is handled according to our Privacy Policy.
By submitting information through the Site, you confirm that:
The information you've shared is accurate to the best of your knowledge
You have the right to share any information you submit, including any information about other people
Your submission doesn't violate any laws or third-party rights
By submitting content or information through the Site, you grant Cultivar Collective a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, store, copy, and share that information for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy and, where applicable, any engagement or consent agreement we have with you. For example, if you share your resume with us about a potential opportunity, this license lets us review it, store it in our systems, and — with your permission for a specific role — share it with a prospective employer.
This license does not transfer ownership of your information. You continue to own what you submit.
Third-party links and content
Our website may include links to other websites, tools, or resources that we don't operate. For example, we might link to a client's website, a candidate's LinkedIn profile, an industry publication, or a tool we recommend.
We include these links because we think they're useful, not because we control or endorse everything on them. We're not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or operation of any website we link to.
If you click through to a third-party site, your interaction with that site is governed by their terms and privacy policies — not ours. We encourage you to review those before sharing information or relying on what you find there.
Disclaimers
Our website is provided for general informational purposes. We've put care into the content we publish — including descriptions of our work, our approach, and any insights we share — but we don't make guarantees about it.
Content is not professional advice
Information on cultivarcollective.ca is not legal, financial, employment, hiring, or career advice. While we share perspectives based on our experience in recruiting, the content shouldn't be relied on as a substitute for advice tailored to your specific situation. If you need professional guidance, please consult a qualified advisor.
No guarantees about the site or its content
We provide the website on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We don't guarantee that:
The Site will always be available, uninterrupted, or free from errors
The information on the Site is complete, current, or accurate at any given moment
The Site will be free from viruses, security vulnerabilities, or other harmful elements
Any results, outcomes, or expectations described on the Site will apply to your situation
No guarantees about recruiting outcomes
Nothing on this website constitutes a promise about specific hiring outcomes, candidate placements, search timelines, or business results. Our actual work with clients and candidates is governed by separate agreements that describe what we commit to in each engagement.
Use of the site is at your own risk
Your use of cultivarcollective.ca and any reliance on its content is at your own discretion and risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Cultivar Collective and its team will not be liable for any damages arising from your use of cultivarcollective.ca or your reliance on its content.
This includes, but is not limited to:
Direct damages (such as financial loss or business disruption)
Indirect damages (such as lost profits, lost opportunities, or lost goodwill)
Incidental or consequential damages
Damages resulting from errors, omissions, interruptions, or inaccuracies on the Site
Damages resulting from your reliance on any content or information published on the Site
Damages caused by viruses, security vulnerabilities, or any harmful elements that may affect your devices or systems through use of the Site
This limitation applies regardless of whether the damages are based on contract, negligence, strict liability, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether we were advised of the possibility of such damages.
If, despite this limitation, Cultivar Collective is found liable for any damages related to your use of the Site, our total liability will not exceed one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100).
Some jurisdictions don't allow the exclusion or limitation of certain types of liability — including, in some cases, liability for gross negligence or intentional fault. Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. In those cases, our liability will be limited to the smallest amount permitted by law.
Indemnification
If your use of cultivarcollective.ca, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights causes Cultivar Collective or its team to face a claim, lawsuit, or legal demand from someone else, you agree to:
Defend Cultivar Collective against the claim, at your own expense
Cover any costs, damages, settlements, or legal fees we incur as a result
Reasonably cooperate with us in handling the matter
We reserve the right to take over the defense of any claim at our own expense, in which case you agree to cooperate with our chosen legal representatives.
This obligation applies whether the claim is brought directly against Cultivar Collective, against our team members, or against anyone acting on our behalf.
Privacy
Your privacy matters to us. Information we collect through cultivarcollective.ca — including information you submit through forms, information collected through cookies and analytics, and any other personal information — is handled according to our Privacy Policy, available at cultivarcollective.ca/privacy-policy.
The Privacy Policy describes what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the rights you have over your information. We encourage you to read it.
By using our website, you also agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy.
Accessibility
Cultivar Collective is committed to providing a website that's accessible to as many people as possible, in line with the principles of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) and recognized accessibility standards such as WCAG. If you experience any difficulty accessing content on cultivarcollective.ca or need information in an alternative format, please contact us at info@cultivarcollective.ca and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our website, our services, applicable laws, or how we operate. When we make changes, we'll update the "last updated" date at the top of this page.
Minor updates — like clarifying language, fixing typos, or adjusting formatting — may happen without separate notice. For more significant changes that affect your rights or obligations, we'll provide at least 30 days' notice through our website, by email if we have an active relationship with you, or both.
Your continued use of cultivarcollective.ca after updated Terms take effect means you accept the changes. If you don't agree with the updated Terms, please stop using the Site.
Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply in Ontario, without regard to conflict of laws principles.
Any dispute, claim, or legal proceeding related to these Terms or your use of cultivarcollective.ca will be brought exclusively in the courts of the Province of Ontario, located in Toronto. By using the Site, you agree to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objection to venue.
If you're using the Site from outside Canada, you do so at your own initiative and are responsible for complying with any applicable local laws.
General
Entire agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any separate engagement, consent, or other agreement we have with you, make up the entire agreement between you and Cultivar Collective regarding your use of cultivarcollective.ca. They replace any prior agreements or understandings between you and us about the Site.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
No waiver
If we don't enforce a provision of these Terms on any particular occasion, that doesn't waive our right to enforce it later. Any waiver by Cultivar Collective must be in writing to be effective.
Assignment
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms — for example, in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of our business — without your consent.
Force majeure
We are not responsible for any failure or delay in providing the Site that results from events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of government, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, labor disruptions, or public health emergencies.
Relationship of the parties
Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between you and Cultivar Collective.
