Welcome to Your Wedding Atlas (“we,” “us,” “our”), a wedding vendor directory and affiliate marketing platform available through yourweddingatlas.ca (the “Site”). By accessing or using any part of our Site or Services, you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Service” or “Terms”).
Please read these Terms carefully as they contain important information regarding your legal rights, obligations, and remedies.
By accessing and using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must stop using the Site immediately.
These Terms are subject to change at our discretion. We will notify users of any significant changes through updates on the Site or via email, but it is your responsibility to review these Terms regularly. Continued use of the Site following changes indicates your acceptance of the modified Terms.
For the purpose of these Terms:
Your Wedding Atlas operates two primary services:
Our Vendor Directory is a listing of wedding-related businesses (e.g., florists, photographers, venues) that users can browse. Businesses pay a subscription fee to create and maintain a profile in this directory. Each business profile includes descriptions of services, pricing, contact information, and links to the business’s own website or other platforms.
Businesses are responsible for providing accurate and up-to-date information on their profiles. They are expected to maintain high standards of professionalism and provide accurate representations of their services.
We feature products through affiliate marketing links to third-party websites (e.g., bridal wear, wedding accessories). When a user clicks an affiliate link, they are redirected to the third-party retailer’s website where the transaction takes place. We may receive a commission from the third-party retailer if a purchase is made.
Businesses must create an account to list their services on the Vendor Directory. Account creation requires the provision of accurate and complete information, including:
By creating an account, you represent that all information provided is truthful, accurate, and up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of this information and keeping your account secure. All business accounts are subject to annual billing. Subscription fees are charged at the start of each billing cycle and will automatically renew unless canceled before the renewal date.
General Users do not need to create an account to browse the directory or affiliate links. However, users can create an optional account to save favorite vendors or access additional features. User accounts also require the provision of accurate contact information, which must be updated as needed.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate any account found to be providing false or misleading information.
Businesses are required to pay a subscription fee to create and maintain a profile on the Vendor Directory. Subscription plans may vary in terms of pricing and available features. The subscription fee must be paid in full before your business profile is published on the Site. Subscription fees are billed annually and are non-refundable once paid.
Payment methods accepted include credit card and PayPal. Subscription fees are billed upfront for the entire year and cover the duration of the plan chosen. Payment will be charged to the account on file at the time of purchase and upon each annual renewal unless canceled in advance. You are responsible for ensuring that your payment information is up to date. Subscription fees are non-refundable once paid.
Subscriptions are set to automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle (annual) unless canceled prior to the renewal date. To avoid being charged for the next subscription period, you must cancel your subscription at least 30 days before the renewal date. Renewal charges will occur on the anniversary of your subscription purchase date.
If your payment method is declined or a payment fails, we will notify you via email, and your business profile will be suspended until payment is resolved. Failure to resolve payment issues within 10 days will result in the termination of your account and removal of your profile from the Site. Any outstanding subscription fees will remain due.
Your Wedding Atlas provides a platform for businesses to promote their services and products through our Vendor Directory. However, we do not guarantee or warrant that your business’s listing on our platform will result in increased sales, leads, client inquiries, or other business opportunities. By using our services, you acknowledge and agree that any results or benefits you may achieve from being listed on the Site are not within our control and may vary based on numerous factors, including but not limited to market conditions, consumer demand, competition, and the accuracy or completeness of your business profile.
We expressly disclaim any responsibility for your business’s success, including but not limited to failure to meet sales goals, or any economic or financial performance as a result of being listed on the Site. Your Wedding Atlas is a promotional tool and resource; however, the responsibility for your business’s performance remains solely with you. You agree that we will not be liable for any loss of income, business opportunities, or any other business-related damages arising from your use of our platform.
Businesses may cancel their subscriptions at any time. However, no refunds will be issued for any unused portion of the subscription period. Your profile will remain active until the end of the paid term. After this period, your profile will be removed from the Vendor Directory.
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend any account, at our sole discretion, for violations of these Terms, including non-payment, the provision of false information, or violations of our content standards (see Section 8). Termination will result in the removal of your business profile from the directory.
Users and Businesses may request the deletion of their accounts by contacting us at support@yourweddingatlas.ca. Upon receiving a request, we will process it in accordance with applicable laws and our Privacy Policy. Please note that account deletion may result in the loss of access to certain features or data associated with the account.
