3. Use of Our Website
You agree to use our website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of others or interfere with the operation, security, or availability of the website.
You must not:
- Use the website for fraudulent, unlawful, or misleading purposes
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our website, systems, or networks
- Introduce malicious code, viruses, or other harmful material
- Interfere with website security or functionality

4. Website Information and No Professional Advice
The information on our website is provided for general informational and promotional purposes.
Although we aim to keep website content accurate and current, we do not guarantee that every description, illustration, specification, example, or statement is complete, accurate, or suitable for a particular application.
Website content does not constitute a project-specific engineering assessment, safety assessment, technical design approval, quotation, or guarantee of performance.
You should obtain a project-specific assessment before relying on information for equipment selection, machine integration, production planning, safety decisions, or other operational purposes.
Any diagrams, photographs, animations, videos, illustrations, or examples may be representative and may not reflect the final configuration of a particular installation.
Nothing in this section excludes liability where exclusion is prohibited by applicable law.
5. Quotations and Service Agreements
Information on our website is not, by itself, a binding offer to provide services or supply equipment.
Any quotation or proposal issued by AJL Automation may specify:
- Project scope and deliverables
- Technical requirements and assumptions
- Pricing, currency, and applicable taxes
- Payment milestones and invoicing arrangements
- Project schedules and estimated completion dates
- Customer responsibilities and site requirements
- Testing, acceptance, commissioning, and handover criteria
- Warranty terms and support arrangements
- Exclusions, limitations, and change-order procedures
Unless otherwise stated in the applicable quotation or agreement, quotations are valid for the period specified in that document.
A project will become binding when the parties enter into an agreement through an accepted quotation, written contract, purchase order accepted by us, or another legally effective form of acceptance.
Where these Terms conflict with a signed project agreement, the project agreement will govern the relevant project to the extent of the conflict.
6. Project Changes and Customer Responsibilities
Automation and robotics projects may depend on the customer's equipment, facilities, production processes, specifications, and operating environment.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, customers are responsible for:
- Providing accurate and complete project information
- Identifying relevant operational and technical requirements
- Providing appropriate access to equipment, facilities, and personnel
- Providing a safe working environment and required site permissions
- Identifying applicable production, quality, and safety requirements
- Reviewing and approving project deliverables when required
- Obtaining permits, approvals, and authorizations assigned to the customer under the applicable agreement
Changes to project scope, specifications, site conditions, equipment, or customer requirements may affect pricing, timelines, deliverables, and performance.
Additional work or material changes may require a written change order or revised quotation before implementation.
7. Pricing, Payments, and Taxes
Prices, payment schedules, deposits, and other commercial terms will be set out in the applicable quotation or project agreement.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, quoted prices do not include applicable taxes, duties, shipping, travel, accommodation, or other additional charges that are identified in the quotation or agreement.
Invoices are payable according to the payment terms stated in the applicable agreement.
Where an invoice becomes overdue, we may exercise remedies available under the applicable agreement and law, which may include suspending work after providing any notice required by the agreement or applicable law.
Any interest, collection costs, cancellation charges, or other additional amounts must be authorized by the applicable agreement and permitted by law.
8. Project Timelines and Availability
Any project schedule, delivery date, installation date, or completion estimate provided on our website or in preliminary communications is an estimate unless expressly agreed as binding in writing.
Schedules may depend on supplier availability, equipment delivery, customer approvals, site readiness, third-party systems, and other factors beyond our reasonable control.
We will communicate material project delays as appropriate under the applicable agreement.
This section does not excuse performance obligations that are expressly agreed to be binding or limit any rights available under applicable law.
9. Intellectual Property Rights
Unless otherwise indicated, the website and its content, including text, graphics, logos, photographs, designs, illustrations, page layouts, and other materials, are owned by or licensed to AJL Automation Group Inc.
You may access and use website content for personal or internal business reference purposes. You must not reproduce, modify, distribute, publish, sell, commercially exploit, or create derivative works from our content without our prior written permission, except as permitted by law.
Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of our intellectual property to you.
Ownership and permitted use of project-specific deliverables, including software, source code, robot programs, electrical drawings, CAD files, technical documentation, designs, and other engineering materials, will be determined by the applicable project agreement.
Third-party software, hardware, trademarks, and technologies remain subject to their respective owners' rights and licence terms.
10. Confidential Information
Please do not submit confidential, proprietary, export-controlled, or security-sensitive information through general website forms unless we have agreed to an appropriate method of receiving it.
If confidential information is exchanged during a project, its handling and permitted use will be governed by any applicable confidentiality agreement, non-disclosure agreement, or project contract.
Nothing in these Terms requires either party to disclose confidential information that it is not otherwise obligated to provide.
11. Third-Party Products and Services
Our projects may involve third-party equipment, software, controllers, sensors, robots, machine vision components, cloud services, or other technologies.
Third-party products and services may be governed by their manufacturers' warranties, software licences, service conditions, and technical limitations.
Unless expressly agreed in writing, AJL Automation does not provide warranties on behalf of third-party manufacturers and cannot guarantee the ongoing availability, functionality, or compatibility of third-party products.
Any warranties or obligations that AJL Automation expressly accepts under a project agreement will remain subject to that agreement and applicable law.
12. Warranties and Service Limitations
Unless expressly provided in a written quotation or project agreement, website content does not create a warranty or guarantee concerning a particular system, product, installation, production rate, cycle time, accuracy level, uptime, cost saving, or operational result.
Project-specific warranties, acceptance criteria, service levels, and remedies will be governed by the applicable agreement.
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any warranty, condition, remedy, or other right that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified under applicable law.
13. Automation, Machine Safety, and Operational Responsibility
Industrial automation and robotics systems may involve moving machinery, electrical equipment, industrial networks, and other operational hazards.
System suitability and safe operation depend on the complete installation, application, environment, and implementation.
Unless expressly included in a written project agreement, our website content does not constitute a machine risk assessment, safety certification, regulatory approval, or guarantee that a particular installation complies with all applicable safety requirements.
Before placing any automated system into service, the responsible parties must ensure that appropriate risk assessments, guarding, safety functions, validation, training, commissioning, and regulatory checks have been completed as applicable.
Customers must operate, maintain, and modify equipment in accordance with applicable instructions, safety procedures, and legal requirements.
No provision of these Terms transfers a party's statutory safety obligations to another party or excuses compliance with applicable law.
14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, AJL Automation Group Inc. will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential losses arising from the use of our website or reliance on general website content.
Examples may include loss of profits, revenue, anticipated savings, business opportunities, production, or data, where such losses are legally excludable.
We do not exclude or limit liability for matters that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including any liability that applicable law requires us to retain.
For services performed under a project agreement, any agreed limitation of liability, allocation of risk, or exclusion of damages will be governed by that agreement, subject to applicable law.
Nothing in this section creates a blanket exclusion of liability for negligence, personal injury, property damage, breach of contract, or other matters where such an exclusion would be unlawful or unenforceable.
15. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses, claims, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising directly from your unlawful use of the website, your infringement of third-party rights, or your material violation of these Terms.
This section applies only to the extent that the relevant loss is attributable to your conduct and is legally recoverable.
It does not require you to indemnify AJL Automation for our own conduct to the extent such indemnification is prohibited by applicable law.
Any additional indemnification obligations relating to a project must be established in the applicable project agreement.
16. Privacy and Personal Information
Your use of our website is also subject to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information.
Our Privacy Policy is available at: Privacy Policy
If there is a conflict between these Terms and the Privacy Policy concerning the handling of personal information, the Privacy Policy and applicable privacy laws will govern that matter.
17. Website Availability and Security
We aim to maintain a functional and secure website, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or continuously available access.
The website may occasionally be unavailable due to maintenance, updates, technical problems, cybersecurity incidents, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue website features where reasonably necessary.
Nothing in this section limits any obligation that cannot lawfully be excluded.
18. Force Majeure
Neither party will be responsible for a failure or delay in performing an obligation under a project agreement to the extent caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, subject to the terms of that agreement and applicable law.
Such circumstances may include natural disasters, fires, severe weather, war, civil unrest, government restrictions, widespread power or telecommunications failures, supplier disruptions, and other qualifying events.
The affected party should notify the other party within a reasonable time and take reasonable steps to reduce the impact.
This section does not automatically excuse payment obligations for amounts already due or override any specific force majeure provisions in a project agreement.
19. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable laws of Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Subject to applicable law and any dispute-resolution provision in a separate project agreement, the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario for disputes arising from these Terms or website use.
Nothing in this section prevents a person from exercising a mandatory legal right to bring a claim in another competent forum where applicable law requires or permits it.
20. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our business, website, services, or legal requirements.
The updated Terms will be published on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
Changes will apply prospectively unless otherwise permitted by law. Where required, we will obtain appropriate agreement or provide additional notice.
Your continued use of the website after updated Terms are published may indicate acceptance of the revised Terms only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Changes to an existing project agreement will be governed by the amendment and change procedures in that agreement.
21. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be severed or limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
22. No Waiver
A failure or delay by AJL Automation Group Inc. in exercising a right under these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right.
Any waiver must be effective under applicable law and, where appropriate, documented in writing.
23. Entire Agreement
These Terms govern your general use of our website and, together with our Privacy Policy and any other applicable website notices, set out the general terms applicable to that use.
They do not replace a separate written project agreement, accepted quotation, or other binding contract governing services or equipment supplied by AJL Automation Group Inc.
Where a separate agreement applies, its terms will govern the relevant project as described in Section 5.
