Terms of Use
Effective Date: August 6, 2026 · Last Updated: August 6, 2026
These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of mattstjean.com, including all pages, content, features, forms, and services made available through it (collectively, the "Website"). The Website is owned and operated by Matt St. Jean ("we," "us," or "our").
Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.
1. Eligibility and Authority
You may use the Website only if you are at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding agreement. If you use the Website on behalf of a business or organization, you represent that you have authority to act for and bind that party. The Website is intended for users located in the United States.
2. Informational Purpose Only
The Website provides general information about marketing consulting services. Website content is not professional, legal, financial, or other specialized advice. You should not rely on Website content as a substitute for a consultation, written proposal, or professional assessment appropriate to your circumstances.
Images, descriptions, testimonials, timelines, and other Website content are illustrative only. Results vary based on market conditions, project scope, customer decisions, and other circumstances.
3. No Offer, Contract, or Guarantee
Website content is an invitation to request information, not a binding offer. Your use of the Website or submission of a contact form does not:
- create a customer, contractor, agency, or other relationship;
- obligate us to contact you, provide an estimate, or accept a project;
- constitute acceptance of a job or formation of a service contract; or
- guarantee pricing, availability, timing, or results.
Services will be provided only under a separate written agreement accepted by both parties. Any price, promotion, or service description displayed on the Website may be changed or withdrawn at any time.
4. Contact and Quote Forms
When submitting a form, you agree to provide current, accurate, and truthful information. Form submissions are not guaranteed to be received, secure, or reviewed within any particular time. If your request is time-sensitive, contact us directly at hello@mattstjean.com.
Do not submit Social Security numbers, payment-card data, account passwords, or other highly sensitive information through a general Website form. Submission of a form authorizes us to respond using the contact information you provide concerning your inquiry. It does not provide consent for recurring automated marketing calls or text messages where separate consent is required by law.
5. Emergencies
The Website and its forms are not monitored as an emergency service. Do not use the Website to report an emergency or imminent danger. Contact 911 or the appropriate emergency service.
6. Permitted Use
We grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to access and use the Website for lawful, personal, and legitimate business-inquiry purposes. You may not:
- violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right;
- use the Website fraudulently, deceptively, or for an unlawful purpose;
- impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity or authority;
- submit false, misleading, harassing, or unlawful material;
- interfere with the Website's operation, security, or integrity;
- use bots, scrapers, or automated tools in a manner that burdens or disrupts the Website;
- harvest contact details or personal information;
- copy, republish, sell, or commercially exploit Website content without written permission; or
- use Website content or data to train, test, or develop an artificial-intelligence or machine-learning system without prior written consent.
7. Intellectual Property
The Website and all original content, designs, logos, photographs, copy, and other materials are owned by or licensed to Matt St. Jean and are protected by intellectual-property laws. No right, title, or interest is transferred to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
8. User Submissions and Feedback
You retain ownership of material you submit through the Website. You grant us a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to receive, store, reproduce, and use that material as reasonably necessary to evaluate and respond to your inquiry, protect the Website, and comply with law. You represent that your submission is accurate, lawful, and that you have all rights needed to submit it.
If you voluntarily provide feedback or suggestions about the Website, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use it for any lawful purpose without compensation or attribution.
9. Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
10. Accessibility
We seek to provide a Website that is accessible to a broad range of users. If you experience difficulty accessing content or using a feature, contact us at hello@mattstjean.com. Additional information is available in our Accessibility Statement.
11. Third-Party Services, Content, and Links
The Website may link to or incorporate maps, scheduling tools, social networks, payment providers, and other third-party services. We do not own or control third parties and are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, content, or practices. A link or integration does not imply endorsement. Access third-party services at your own risk.
12. Website Availability and Changes
We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Website at any time without notice. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, compatibility with every device, or freedom from errors or harmful components.
13. Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Website and all content, features, and information available through it are provided "as is" and "as available," with all faults. We disclaim all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, availability, and security. We do not warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Matt St. Jean and his agents, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, arising from or relating to the Website or these Terms, regardless of the theory of liability.
The aggregate liability of Matt St. Jean for all claims arising from or relating to the Website or these Terms will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).
These limitations do not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
15. Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Matt St. Jean and his agents, affiliates, and service providers from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising from or relating to your unlawful use of the Website, material you submit, your fraud or violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another person's rights.
16. Notice and Opportunity to Resolve Disputes
Before filing a lawsuit arising from the Website or these Terms, the complaining party must send a written notice to hello@mattstjean.com describing the specific issue, the dates involved, the alleged injury, and the relief requested. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for 30 days after receipt of complete notice before filing suit. This requirement does not apply when a claim would otherwise expire or when immediate injunctive relief is reasonably necessary.
17. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Maine, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to Section 16, exclusive jurisdiction and venue will lie in the state courts of Cumberland County, Maine, or when federal jurisdiction exists, the United States District Court for the District of Maine. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
18. Time Limit for Claims
To the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim arising from or relating to the Website or these Terms must be filed within one year after the claim accrued. This contractual period does not apply where applicable law prohibits shortening the limitations period.
19. Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Proceedings
To the maximum extent permitted by law, each party knowingly and voluntarily waives the right to a trial by jury in any dispute arising from or relating to the Website or these Terms.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, each party agrees to bring claims only in its individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in a class, collective, or representative action.
20. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms by posting a revised version and changing the "Last Updated" date. Material changes will receive additional notice when required by law. Your continued use after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
21. General Terms
These Terms and the incorporated Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement concerning use of the Website. If a provision is held invalid, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remaining provisions will remain in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent.
