Terms of Use

Last updated: November 1, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your use of the Four Cents WordPress Studio (wpdeveloper.ca) website, including its content, guides, tools and forms (the "Site"). The Site is operated by Four Cents, 49 Thorncliffe Park Drive, East York, Toronto, Ontario, M4H 1J6, Canada. By using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. Paid work is governed by our Terms of Service and your signed proposal, not by these Terms.

General information, not advice

Guides, articles, comparisons, checklists and FAQs on the Site are general information. They are not legal, financial, tax, security, accessibility, privacy or other professional advice, and they may not suit your situation or be current when you read them. Before you change a live website, back it up and test the change somewhere safe. You are responsible for decisions you make using the Site.

Free tools and estimates

• Cost calculator and price ranges. Ranges on the Site are typical figures for planning. They are not quotes or offers. Only a written, signed proposal sets a price.
• Site reviews and checklists. Any review, score or checklist we provide is a snapshot based on limited, mostly automated checks. It does not certify that a site is secure, fast, accessible, compliant with the AODA, the ADA, WCAG or any other standard, or free of defects.
• Timelines. Typical timelines depend on scope and on how quickly content and approvals arrive.

Using the forms

When you send a form you confirm the details are accurate and that you are allowed to share them. Do not use the forms to send unlawful, misleading or malicious content, or someone else's confidential information without permission.

Acceptable use

You agree not to disrupt or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, probe or scan it for vulnerabilities, send automated or bulk form submissions, scrape it in a way that burdens it, or use it to break any law or anyone else's rights.

Intellectual property

The Site's text, design, code and graphics belong to Four Cents or its licensors. You may view and print pages for your own reference and link to them. You may not copy, republish, resell or create derivative works from the Site without written permission. Short quotations with a link back are fine.

Third-party sites and software

The Site links to and discusses third-party websites, plugins, themes, hosting and services that we do not control. We are not responsible for their content, availability, security, licensing or practices. Third-party software is provided under its own licence by its own authors.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Four Cents, Four Cents WordPress Studio (wpdeveloper.ca) and their owners, staff and contractors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or its content and tools. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Site is limited to one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100). Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including rights you have as a consumer under Ontario's Consumer Protection Act or the law of your province.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify Four Cents and its owners, staff and contractors against claims, losses and reasonable legal costs arising from your misuse of the Site, your submissions or your breach of these Terms.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. The courts in Toronto, Ontario have exclusive jurisdiction, except where the law of your place of residence gives you a right to bring a claim locally. Before starting a claim, please contact us so we can try to resolve it informally within 30 days.

General

If part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest still applies. Not enforcing a term is not a waiver of it. We may update these Terms; the date at the top shows the current version.
