Terms of Use
Version of July 23, 2026. By creating an account or using Preuve en main, you confirm that you have read, understood and accepted these terms and the Privacy Policy.
Important legal notice
Preuve en main is a tool for documentation and general legal information. It is not a law firm, and the service provides no legal opinion or advice, no representation, no assessment of your chances and no prediction of outcome. The information presented may be incomplete, may not apply to your situation, or may have changed. For advice on your case, consult a lawyer, a notary, legal aid or a community justice centre. You alone are responsible for your decisions, your deadlines and your process.
1. What the service is, and is not
Preuve en main (“the service”, “we”) provides a method, templates, sourced general legal information and a tool to organize your documentation yourself (dated log, evidence vault, timeline, reports). We offer no legal services : no advice, no opinions, no strategy, no assessment of your chances, no drafting or filing of any document or form on your behalf. Using the service creates no lawyer-client relationship.
2. You are the author and solely responsible
Everything you produce is yours: you are its sole author and solely responsible for it, including its accuracy, its compliance and the use you make of it. You alone are responsible for meeting your deadlines, due dates and limitation periods : the deadline calculator is purely indicative and must always be confirmed against the official source. The admissibility and weight of any document before a court or body are for that court or body alone to decide. We guarantee no results.
3. No warranty (to the extent permitted by law)
The service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, currency or fitness of the information for a particular purpose. Laws and procedures change; the information may no longer be up to date.
4. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, our total liability, on all grounds combined, is limited to the amount you paid us in the preceding twelve (12) months. We are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, nor for a lost right, a missed deadline, an unfavourable decision or a loss of data. Nothing herein limits any liability that cannot legally be limited.
5. Accounts and activation
An account may be required for online backup and membership. You are responsible for the accuracy of your information and the confidentiality of your password. We may require account activation via a code sent to your email. You must be 18 or older.
6. Memberships, billing, cancellation
Documenting is free (up to 3 active cases). Advanced features (reports, binder, printing, exports, additional cases, sync) require a recurring paid membership : Essential, Pro or Business, billed monthly or yearly — your choice. Membership is tied to your account. It renews automatically each period until cancelled. You can change plans, pause or cancel at any time from your account; cancellation takes effect at the end of the period already paid, with no further renewal. Full refund on request within 14 days of a purchase. Applicable taxes are added where required. Payment is processed by a PCI-DSS-certified third-party processor; we never see or store your card details.
7. Intellectual property
The templates, guides, texts, the method and the software remain our property. You receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use them in your own cases · not to resell them, redistribute them or turn them into a competing product. The content you create belongs to you.
8. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the service to harass or monitor others, fabricate false documents, circumvent technical measures, or for any illegal purpose. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these rules.
9. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to hold us harmless from any third-party claim arising from your use of the service or the content you produce, except to the extent it results from our own fault.
10. Availability and changes
We may evolve, suspend or discontinue all or part of the service. We may amend these terms; the version in force bears a date, and any significant change will be presented to you for acceptance. By continuing to use the service, you accept the current version.
11. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the law applicable in the province of Québec (Canada). Any dispute falls under the jurisdiction of the courts of the judicial district of your home in Québec. Nothing here limits the rights granted to you by the Consumer Protection Act; in case of ambiguity, the text is interpreted in your favour. No mandatory arbitration clause, no clause forbidding you from posting an honest review.
