TERMS & CONDITIONS

This site (the "Site") is for your personal use and information. Please feel free to browse the Site; however, your access and use of the Site is subject to the following terms and conditions ("Terms of Use") and all applicable laws set forth in this agreement ("Agreement"). By accessing and browsing the Site, you accept, without limitation or qualification, all of the following terms and conditions.

Omnia Institute for Contextual Leadership is an Illinois corporation.

SECTION 1: INTENTION OF SITE

This Site is intended to provide information to visitors about our mission and to function as the equivalent of a seminar attended by professionals and lay people. This Site is intended exclusively for legal residents of the United States of America who are eighteen years of age or older. If you are aware of an individual who is accessing or using the Site who is not a legal resident of the United States and/or is under eighteen years of age, please contact us.

We may at any time revise these Terms of Use by updating this posting. You are bound by any such revisions and should therefore review the Terms of Use every time you visit the Site.  

You should not rely on any statements made within the Site (or those of any website) for legal or financial advice and should always confirm such information with your lawyer or financial advisor, who should be responsible for taking whatever steps are necessary to check all information and personally assuring that the advice he or she provides is based on accurate and complete information and research.

Neither the receipt nor the distribution of materials, including the use of private electronic mail, constitutes the formation of any attorney-client relationship or agency relationship. An attorney-client relationship can be formed only upon the execution and delivery of a retainer agreement and the satisfaction of the conditions contained therein.

By transmitting information through this Site, you agree that we may review such information, even if it is highly confidential, and we are not precluded from representing a client directly adverse to you, even in a matter where that information could and will be used against you.

No one shall be entitled to claim detrimental reliance on any views, forms or models provided or expressed on the Site.

SECTION 2: THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

The Site may contain links to third party websites or may "frame" third party websites. Framing by this Site allows a visitor to view content provided (and managed) by a third party without losing access to this Site's navigational menu. We are not responsible for screening third party websites and have no liability or responsibility for performance or nonperformance of such screening. Any link provided on the Site is for your enjoyment only. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any third party websites or content. Any opinions, advice or other information framed by the Site or linked from the Site are those of the respective author only. We do not endorse any opinions expressed by or affiliated with third party content.

SECTION 3: UPDATING THE SITE

No one shall be entitled to claim that there is a duty to update answers or materials provided on the Site or to use care to protect the interests of the recipient. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without obligation, to improve or correct information on the Site.

SECTION 4: WARRANTY

Your use and browsing of the Site is at your own risk. We assume no responsibility, and shall not be liable for any damages to, or viruses that may infect, your computer equipment or other property on account of your access to, use of, or browsing in the Site or your downloading of any material from the Site. We make no representations that the Site will be provided uninterrupted or free from all bugs, errors or omissions.

EVERYTHING ON THE SITE IS PROVIDED TO YOU "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE REGARDING SUITABILITY OF THE INFORMATION, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS OF THE CONTENT, SERVICES AND/OR OTHER PRODUCTS.

SECTION 5: REMEDIES

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, WE, NOR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING OR DELIVERING THIS SITE, ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS TO, OR USE OF, THE SITE. 

Some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusions of incidental, consequential or special damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. Also, some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusions of implied warranties or limitations on how long an implied warranty may last, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This Agreement gives you specific legal rights. You may have other rights that vary from state to state or jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

SECTION 6: INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, at your sole expense, Omnia Institute for Contextual Leadership, its subsidiaries and affiliates, officers, directors, employees, partners and agents from any claim or action brought by a third party relating to your use of the Site or your breach of the Terms of Use.

PRIVACY POLICY

Overview

This document describes the Omnia Institute for Contextual Leadership (hereafter referred to as OMNIA) policy regarding personal information, ongoing communication, site security and overall site usage of Omnialeadership.org, and all other sites operated by OMNIA (hereafter referred to as Omnialeadership.org).  These provisions apply solely to online activities and are not necessarily applicable to practices OMNIA may engage in outside of Omnialeadership.org.  Use of the website signifies your agreement to the terms and conditions of use set forth in this document. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not access or otherwise use this website.

Collection of Personal Information

On occasion we ask for personal data on this website.  The information is used to fulfill requests you’ve made of us, such as e-mail updates and brochures by mail or to use any special features of the site.  By voluntarily providing personal information, you are consenting to the collection and use of your personal information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

You may choose not to use any service that requires the use of your personal information in a manner not described in this Privacy Policy.  Your use of Omnialeadership.org, or any other OMNIA online services will be considered as your consent to the use of your personal information in the way described.

The request for e-mail communication or contact from OMNIA may result in the collection of (but is not limited to) the following information:

E-mail Addresses

As a matter of policy, your e-mail address will not be sold, rented, or shared with any other organization or business.  Users that have checked one of our e-mail request buttons may, from time to time, receive updates about new website features and other information relating to OMNIA.  If you wish to be removed from our e-lists, click on the unsubscribe link located on the bottom of the email message.  Please allow one to two weeks for our list to be updated.

Security of Personal Information

We exercise reasonable care to protect your non-public personal information.  Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.  So, while we strive to protect your non-public personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or receive from us.  This is especially true for information you transmit to us via e-mail.  We have no way of protecting that information until it reaches us. Once we receive your transmission, we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your personal information.

We may disclose information, including non-public personal information, in special cases when we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with the legal process such as, but not limited to, situations when we are required to do so by Federal, state or local laws and regulations or when we receive a subpoena or are ordered by a court to do so; (b) protect and defend our rights; or (c) act to protect the interests of our users or others.  Additionally, we may, without notice to you, provide aggregate statistics about visitors to the website(s), such as volume, traffic patterns and related site information to reputable third-party vendors, but these statistics will include no personal information.

Transmission of Information

All personal data provided to OMNIA online will be handled in accordance with the OMNIA Online Privacy Practices.  You are prohibited from posting or transmitting to or from this website any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane material, or any other material that could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under the law.

Third-Party Links

Omnialeadership.org may contain links to other sites, including those of our strategic partners. While we try to link only to sites that share our high standards and respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the privacy practices employed by other sites and those other sites have not agreed to our privacy policy.  Visit those sites for information regarding their privacy policy prior to providing personal information.

The links we provide on Omnialeadership.org are there for your reference and convenience.  We do not control any of these websites, nor are we responsible for their content.  The OMNIA does not imply any endorsement of the material on such websites or any association with their operators by including these links on Omnialeadership.org.  If you decide to access any of these websites, you do so entirely at your own risk and you should be aware that upon using these links you will leave Omnialeadership.org.

Modification of Terms and Conditions

OMNIA reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change, modify, add or remove any portion of this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time.  Modification of changes in the Agreement will be posted on the website. OMNIA may change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the website at any time, including the availability of any website feature, database, or content.  OMNIA may also impose limits on certain features and services or restrict your access to parts or all of the website without notice or liability.  By using this website, you agree to be bound by any such revisions and should therefore periodically visit this page to determine the current terms of use to which you are bound.
