Last updated: November 2026

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the website operated by S. Kopstick & Associates Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) at skassociates.ca. Please read them carefully. They are designed to be plain-language and reasonable — not lawyer-bait.

Acceptance of these terms

By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. We may update these terms from time to time, and your continued use after changes are posted means you accept the updated version.

Use of the site

This website is provided for general informational purposes. It describes our consulting, training, and support services and gives background on Spire, Adagio, and related accounting platforms. Using the site does not, on its own, create a consulting engagement, client relationship, or any contract for services between you and us. A consulting engagement only begins when we agree on scope and terms in writing.

You agree to use the site only for lawful purposes and not to interfere with its operation, security, or other users’ enjoyment of it.

You may not republish, redistribute, or use our content commercially without our written permission.

We provide the links for convenience only and do not endorse, guarantee, or take responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or accuracy of any third-party site.

Limitation of liability

The information on this website is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We try hard to keep it accurate and current, but we do not guarantee that it is error-free, complete, or always available. To the fullest extent permitted by law, S.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
