Trademarks

The CMBA Ontario logo is a trade-mark of Canadian Mortgage Brokers Association. Other names, words, titles, phrases, logos, designs, graphics, icons and trademarks displayed on the Website may constitute registered or unregistered trade-marks of CMBA Ontario or third parties. Our trade-marks may be unregistered or registered in Canada. Any use of such trade-marks, except as expressly provided for herein, without the express written consent of the applicable owner is strictly prohibited. Nothing contained herein or on the Website (including, without limitation, the Content) may be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license to use any trade-mark(s). You agree that you will not take any actions inconsistent with CMBA Ontario ownership of, or any third party’s ownership of, the trade-marks.

While certain trade-marks of third parties may be used by CMBA Ontario under licence, the display of third party trade-marks on the Website should not be taken to imply any relationship or licence between CMBA Ontario and the owner of said trade-mark or to imply that CMBA Ontario endorses the wares, services or business of the owner of the said trade-mark.

 

Governing law and jurisdiction

Subject to applicable law, by accessing or using the Website, you agree that all matters relating to your access to, or use of, such Website and its Content shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict of laws principles, and you agree and hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario with respect to all matters relating to your access to and use of such Website.

You may not assign, convey, subcontract or delegate your rights, duties or obligations hereunder. CMBA Ontario will not be considered to have waived any of its rights or remedies described in this Agreement unless the waiver is in writing and signed by CMBA Ontario. No delay or omission by CMBA Ontario in exercising its rights or remedies will impair or be construed as a waiver. Any single or partial exercise of a right or remedy will not preclude further exercise of any other right or remedy.
