Acceptance of terms
These Terms of Use form an agreement between you and GUILD regarding your use of guildgemlab.com and related digital content. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.
Informational purpose
Website content is provided for general information about GUILD laboratory services, education programs, research, and institutional activities. It does not create a professional engagement, laboratory report, academic enrollment, or certification unless confirmed through an applicable service agreement, enrollment process, or official GUILD report.
Accounts and submissions
If you submit inquiries, applications, verification requests, or other materials through the site, you are responsible for providing accurate information and for using the site only for lawful purposes. GUILD may refuse, suspend, or remove access or submissions that appear abusive, misleading, unlawful, or harmful to our systems or reputation.
Online course accounts
Registering for GUILD Online Courses creates a member account that is subject to review before access is granted; registration does not guarantee approval. Currently available online courses are provided free of charge; GUILD may introduce paid courses in the future, and any such courses will clearly state their price and payment terms before purchase.
You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. Course videos and materials are provided for your personal, non-commercial learning use only — you may not download, record, redistribute, or share course content or your account access with others. GUILD may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or these usage restrictions.
See our Privacy Notice, including “Online courses and learning activity,” for details on the information we collect through the online course platform.
Intellectual property
Unless otherwise indicated, text, imagery, trademarks, logos, layouts, course descriptions, research abstracts, and other site materials are owned by GUILD or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. You may view and share links for personal, non-commercial reference, but you may not copy, scrape, republish, or commercially reuse site materials without prior written permission, except as allowed by law.
Third-party links
The site may contain links to third-party websites or services. GUILD is not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of those third parties.
Disclaimer
The site and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, GUILD disclaims warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Laboratory conclusions, grading opinions, and education outcomes are governed by the applicable reports, course terms, and service conditions—not by general website copy.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, GUILD shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
Changes and governing law
We may update these Terms of Use periodically. Continued use of the site after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. These terms are governed by applicable laws of the jurisdictions in which GUILD entities operate, without regard to conflict-of-law principles that would require another jurisdiction’s laws.
