Terms of Use

Effective date: September 14, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of Harbour North. By creating an account, accessing the service, or using Harbour North, you agree to these Terms.

Important: Harbour North is a retirement-planning, budgeting, and educational tool. It does not provide financial, investment, tax, accounting, insurance, or legal advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional who understands your individual circumstances.

1. Harbour North

Harbour North provides personal financial-planning tools, including Horizon for retirement planning and Bearing for budgeting. The service allows users to enter or import financial information, model retirement scenarios, review projections, organize transactions, track spending and bills, set financial goals, compare possible changes, and explore personal financial decisions.

Harbour North does not hold or manage investments, execute financial transactions on your behalf, recommend specific securities, or act as your investment dealer, portfolio manager, financial adviser, accountant, insurance adviser, or lawyer.

2. Eligibility

You must be legally capable of entering into these Terms. Harbour North is intended for adults using the service for their own personal or household retirement planning, budgeting, and related financial planning.

3. No professional advice or fiduciary relationship

Information, projections, recommendations, comparisons, alerts, explanations, and other content generated by Harbour North are provided for general planning and educational purposes only.

Your use of Harbour North does not create an adviser-client, fiduciary, accountant-client, lawyer-client, or similar professional relationship.

You should obtain appropriate professional advice before making significant financial, investment, pension, tax, estate, insurance, retirement, or legal decisions.

4. Estimates, projections, categories and assumptions

Harbour North outputs depend on the information and assumptions you provide. Horizon retirement calculations may include investment returns, inflation, tax rates, government benefits, pension amounts, retirement dates, spending, contributions, withdrawals, life expectancy, and other variables. Bearing budgeting outputs may depend on transaction descriptions, categories, recurring income and bills, balances, spending targets, budgets, and other information you enter or import.

Actual results may differ materially from projections, and automated transaction categorization or budgeting suggestions may be incomplete or incorrect. Tax rules, CPP, OAS, pension rules, investment markets, legislation, merchant information, and personal circumstances may also change over time.

Harbour North does not guarantee any projected retirement income, portfolio value, tax result, success rate, transaction category, budgeting result, recommended adjustment, or other outcome.

5. Your information and responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information and assumptions you enter or import into Harbour North and for reviewing your retirement plan and budgeting information when your circumstances change.

You are responsible for independently checking important information before relying on it for a financial decision.

6. Accounts and account security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activity occurring through your account. You should use a strong, unique password and notify Harbour North promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.

You agree to provide accurate account information and not to impersonate another person or create an account using information you are not authorized to use.

7. Beta features, changes and availability

Harbour North may make beta, preview, experimental, or developing features available from time to time. These features may contain errors, change without notice, or be removed.

We may modify, update, suspend, or discontinue features of Harbour North as the service evolves. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability.

8. Fees, subscriptions and purchases

Some Harbour North features may be free and others may require payment. Where paid products or subscriptions are offered, applicable pricing, currency, billing frequency, and material purchase terms will be shown before you complete the purchase.

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers such as Stripe. Refunds, cancellations, renewals, and taxes will be handled according to the terms presented at purchase and applicable law.

9. Acceptable use

You may not use Harbour North to:

  • violate applicable law or the rights of another person;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to accounts, systems, or data;
  • interfere with the security, operation, or availability of the service;
  • introduce malicious software or harmful code;
  • use automated methods in a manner that unreasonably burdens the service; or
  • copy, circumvent, reverse engineer, or exploit protected portions of the service except where permitted by applicable law.

10. Intellectual property

Harbour North, including its software, design, branding, text, graphics, calculations, interfaces, and other original content, is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Subject to these Terms, Harbour North grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service for lawful personal retirement planning, budgeting, and related financial planning.

11. Third-party services

Harbour North relies on third-party providers for services such as authentication, hosting, payment processing, email delivery, and error monitoring. Those services may be governed by their own terms and privacy practices.

Harbour North may also refer to government programs, pension information, tax information, or other external sources. We do not control third-party services or guarantee that third-party information will always be complete, current, or available.

12. Privacy

Your use of Harbour North is also subject to the Harbour North Privacy Policy, which explains how personal information is collected, used, disclosed, protected, and retained.

13. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Harbour North is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not make warranties or guarantees regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, suitability, or future results of the service or its projections.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, guarantees, or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable consumer-protection law.

14. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Harbour North and its operator will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or similar losses arising from your use of or inability to use the service, including losses resulting from financial decisions made in reliance on projections or planning information.

You remain responsible for decisions made using Harbour North. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded.

15. Suspension or termination

We may suspend or terminate access to Harbour North where reasonably necessary to protect the service, users, or third parties; respond to unlawful or abusive activity; enforce these Terms; or comply with legal obligations.

You may stop using Harbour North at any time. Requests relating to deletion of personal information are handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Subject to any rights you may have under mandatory consumer-protection or jurisdictional laws, disputes relating to these Terms or Harbour North will be resolved in British Columbia, Canada.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as Harbour North evolves, features change, or legal requirements change. If a change is material, we will take reasonable steps to notify users or make the updated Terms prominent. Continued use of Harbour North after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of those updated Terms where permitted by law.

18. Severability

If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
