1.Acceptance of Terms & Electronic Signature
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("User", "you", "your") and Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. ("Prodigy", "we", "us", "our"), governing your access to and use of prodigywildfire.com and all associated subdomains, mobile applications, APIs, risk reports, assessment tools, and services (collectively, the "Platform").
By accessing the Platform in any way — browsing, submitting a form, completing a risk assessment, downloading a report, or interacting with any chat, voice, or automated feature — you confirm you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Cookie Policy, each incorporated herein by reference.
If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you must immediately cease all use of the Platform.
If using the Platform on behalf of an organisation, you represent you have authority to bind that organisation, and "you" refers to that organisation.
Electronic Signature & Click-Wrap Validity
Your acceptance of these Terms by clicking, browsing, submitting a form, or otherwise using the Platform constitutes a valid electronic signature and legally binding agreement equivalent to a handwritten signature, to the full extent permitted by: Canada's Electronic Commerce Act (BC) and equivalent provincial legislation; the United States' Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) as adopted in applicable states; and Australia's Electronic Transactions Act 1999 (Cth) and equivalent state and territory legislation. You waive any right to claim that these Terms are unenforceable solely because they were accepted electronically rather than by written signature. We may log your IP address, browser fingerprint, and timestamp of acceptance as evidence of your agreement.
2.About Prodigy Wildfire Solutions & Our Services
Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. is incorporated in British Columbia, Canada. We design, supply, and arrange installation of exterior wildfire-defence systems and related technology for homeowners, businesses, and communities in Canada, the USA, and Australia. Our Platform includes:
- Wildfire Defence Systems: Design, supply, installation, and maintenance of exterior sprinkler and ember-defence hardware.
- AI-Powered Risk Assessments: Automated property-level wildfire risk scoring using satellite imagery, topographic data, historical fire databases, and large language model (LLM) analysis. See Section 3.
- Digital Risk Reports: Downloadable and online reports summarising risk scores and mitigation recommendations.
- Consultation Services: Phone, video, and AI voice consultations with wildfire protection specialists.
- EmberWatch: Real-time wildfire monitoring and alert service powered by third-party fire data feeds (NASA FIRMS, NIFC, NFIS, AFAC).
- Mobile Application: The Prodigy Wildfire Control app for remote monitoring and control of installed defence systems.
- Educational Content: Articles, guides, and resources on wildfire preparedness.
- Partner & Affiliate Portal: Web portal for authorised partner organisations and sales representatives.
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any service at any time with or without notice. We will not be liable for any such modification, suspension, or discontinuation.
3.AI Risk Assessments — Critical Limitations
Our risk assessments are fully automated predictive modelling tools generated by artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms. They are not engineering inspections, certified safety evaluations, or professional opinions of any kind.
You acknowledge and accept these limitations without reservation:
- Risk scores are based on statistical models trained on historical wildfire data. They do not predict the occurrence, timing, location, or severity of any specific future fire event.
- A "Low" risk score does not mean your property is safe from wildfire. A "High" or "Extreme" score does not mean damage is certain or inevitable.
- Data sources — including satellite imagery, government fire databases, topographic data, and meteorological feeds — may contain errors, gaps, or delays that cause assessments to differ materially from real-world conditions.
- AI-generated narrative content within reports is produced by large language models and may contain inaccuracies, hallucinations, or outdated information.
- Assessments do not substitute for an on-site inspection by a qualified fire safety engineer or licensed professional.
- Reports are not suitable as standalone documentation for property transactions, insurance underwriting, planning permit applications, or regulatory compliance without independent professional verification.
- Real-time fire data displayed through EmberWatch is sourced from third-party agencies and may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. accepts no liability for any loss, damage, injury, death, or other consequence arising from reliance on our risk assessments, AI-generated reports, scores, or EmberWatch data.
3b.Emergency & Life-Safety Warning — Platform Availability During Active Wildfire Events
THE PLATFORM — INCLUDING EMBERWATCH, AI RISK ASSESSMENTS, THE MOBILE APP, AND ALL RELATED SERVICES — MAY BE UNAVAILABLE, DEGRADED, DELAYED, OR INACCURATE DURING ACTIVE WILDFIRE EMERGENCIES, POWER OUTAGES, NETWORK FAILURES, OR GOVERNMENT-DECLARED STATES OF EMERGENCY. THIS IS PRECISELY WHEN PEOPLE ATTEMPT TO RELY ON IT MOST.
You expressly acknowledge and agree:
- The Platform is NOT an emergency service, emergency management system, or evacuation coordination tool.
- The Platform must NOT be used as your primary or sole source of information during an active wildfire threat or evacuation scenario.
- Fire data, risk scores, and system status displayed on the Platform may be hours out of date, geographically imprecise, or entirely absent during fast-moving fire events.
- The Prodigy Wildfire Control app may fail to activate, deactivate, or communicate with installed systems during power outages, internet service disruptions, or IoT platform failures — including but not limited to failures of third-party IoT platforms such as YoLink.
- EmberWatch fire perimeter data originates from third-party government agencies (NASA FIRMS, NIFC, NFIS, AFAC) and is subject to delays of minutes to hours. New or fast-moving ignitions may not appear for extended periods.
- In any emergency, you must follow instructions from official emergency services: call 911 (USA/Canada) or 000 (Australia), follow government evacuation orders, and refer to official emergency management resources — not this Platform.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. ACCEPTS NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DESTRUCTION, OR OTHER LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING FROM: (A) RELIANCE ON THE PLATFORM DURING AN ACTIVE WILDFIRE, EVACUATION, OR EMERGENCY EVENT; (B) PLATFORM UNAVAILABILITY OR DATA INACCURACY DURING SUCH AN EVENT; OR (C) FAILURE OF ANY INSTALLED SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE OR OPERATE DUE TO INFRASTRUCTURE OR CONNECTIVITY FAILURE.
4.No Professional, Legal or Insurance Advice
Nothing on this Platform constitutes, and must not be construed as:
- Legal advice — no lawyer-client or solicitor-client relationship is formed.
- Engineering advice — our assessments are not structural, fire engineering, or building code certifications.
- Insurance advice — Prodigy is not a licensed insurance broker or adviser. Our reports do not guarantee insurability, coverage eligibility, or premium outcomes.
- Emergency management advice — always follow official government, emergency services, and evacuation authority instructions during any wildfire event.
- Real estate or property advice — our reports must not replace a professional property inspection or vendor disclosure statement.
- Financial advice — no information constitutes investment or financial product advice.
You must seek independent qualified professional advice before making decisions based on any content from this Platform.
5.Eligibility, Accounts & Children's Privacy
You must be at least 18 years of age — or the age of majority in your jurisdiction if higher — to use our services. Our Platform is not directed to, and must not be used by, anyone under 18.
If you register an account, you agree to: provide accurate, current, and complete information; maintain the security of your credentials; notify us immediately of any unauthorised access; and accept responsibility for all activity under your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a risk to other users, without prior notice and without liability.
Children's Privacy — COPPA & California B&P § 22581
We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. Our Platform is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of minors under 16. If you are a California resident under 18 and have registered on our Platform, you may request removal of content or information you have publicly posted by contacting admin@prodigywildfire.com (California Business & Professions Code § 22581 — "eraser right"). We will make the content not publicly visible, though it may not be completely removed from all systems. If we discover we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. Parents or guardians who believe their child has submitted personal information to us should contact us immediately at admin@prodigywildfire.com.
6.Intellectual Property
All content on the Platform — including text, graphics, logos, software, risk models, scoring algorithms, AI prompts, reports, compilations, and the selection and arrangement of all content — is the exclusive property of Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. or its licensors and is protected under applicable copyright, trade-mark, patent, and trade-secret laws in Canada, the USA, and Australia.
We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform for your own personal or internal business purposes only. This licence does not permit you to: copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works; sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit any part of the Platform; use automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to extract data; reverse engineer any software or algorithm; or remove any copyright or proprietary notice. Unauthorised use terminates this licence immediately and may constitute infringement actionable under applicable law.
6b.User Submissions, Feedback & Testimonial Licence
Licence Grant for User Submissions
When you submit any content, information, data, photographs, communications, feedback, reviews, or testimonials to the Platform (collectively, "User Submissions") — including via forms, chat widgets, support emails, assessment inputs, the William AI chat, partner portal, or any other channel — you grant Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable licence to use, reproduce, store, process, display, distribute, and create derivative works from such User Submissions, solely for the purposes of: (a) operating and improving the Platform and our services; (b) training and refining AI and machine learning models used in our risk assessment and voice systems (in anonymised or aggregated form); (c) providing customer support; and (d) complying with legal obligations. This licence survives termination of your use of the Platform.
Your Representations Regarding User Submissions
By submitting any User Submission, you represent and warrant that: (a) you own all rights in the User Submission or have the legal right to grant us the licence above; (b) the User Submission does not infringe any third-party intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights; (c) the User Submission is accurate and not fraudulent or misleading; and (d) the User Submission does not violate any applicable law or these Terms. You indemnify us for any breach of these representations.
Feedback & Testimonials
If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Platform or our services, or if you provide a testimonial or review that we may wish to use in marketing materials, you grant us an irrevocable, royalty-free right to use and incorporate such feedback or testimonial in any form, without compensation or attribution, unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing. We will not use your name or likeness in testimonials or marketing materials without your express prior consent.
De-Identified & Aggregated Report Data
We may use de-identified, anonymised, or aggregated data derived from User Submissions — including aggregate wildfire risk patterns, geographic risk distributions, system performance statistics, and assessment volume by region — for product development, research, publication, and commercial purposes. No de-identified or aggregated data will identify you personally. This right is not limited by any data deletion request you may make.
7.Prohibited Conduct & Export Controls / Sanctions
You agree not to use the Platform to:
- Provide false, fraudulent, or misleading information, including false property addresses or contact details.
- Impersonate any person, entity, or official authority.
- Upload, transmit, or introduce malware, viruses, ransomware, or any other malicious code.
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, networks, or data.
- Use our data or reports in connection with insurance fraud, property misrepresentation, or any unlawful purpose.
- Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute our reports or data without written authorisation.
- Interfere with, overload, or disrupt the Platform or any associated infrastructure.
- Harvest or systematically collect personal data of other users.
- Violate applicable laws, regulations, or professional codes of conduct.
Export Controls & Sanctions Compliance
The Platform may not be accessed or used from, by, or on behalf of: (a) any person or entity located in, incorporated in, or ordinarily resident in a country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the Government of Canada, the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), or the United Nations Security Council — including currently Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria, and the Crimea/Donetsk/Luhansk regions of Ukraine; (b) any individual or entity listed on the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List, the Canadian Consolidated Autonomous Sanctions List, or equivalent Australian designated persons lists; or (c) any entity 50% or more owned or controlled by such persons.
You represent and warrant that you are not located in, a national of, or controlled by any such jurisdiction or sanctioned party. Violation of this provision may result in immediate termination of your access and may expose you to civil and criminal penalties under applicable law. We reserve the right to implement technical controls to prevent access from sanctioned jurisdictions. Export of our software, data, or risk models may be subject to Canadian Export and Import Permits Act, US Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and applicable Australian export control laws.
We reserve the right to investigate suspected violations and cooperate with law enforcement as appropriate.
8.Privacy, Data & Tracking Technologies
Our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, both incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Platform, you consent to our data practices as described in those policies.
We collect: information you provide directly (name, email, phone, property address); information collected automatically via cookies and similar technologies (IP address, device identifiers, browsing behaviour, session data); and information derived from your use of our services (assessment inputs and outputs, system event logs).
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to analyse website traffic. GA4 uses cookies and collects anonymised usage data. You can opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
We use Stadia Maps for rendering interactive property maps. Your browser may transmit your IP address and map tile requests to Stadia Maps' servers. See their Privacy Policy.
8b.Meta Pixel, Server-Side Tracking (CAPI) & Advertising Technologies
We use the Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel) and Meta Conversions API (CAPI) on this Platform. These are advertising measurement and optimisation technologies provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. (Facebook and Instagram).
What the Meta Pixel Does
The Meta Pixel is JavaScript code that loads in your browser when you visit our website. It places cookies on your device — including _fbp and _fbc — and collects information about your browsing activity, including pages viewed and actions taken (such as submitting a form or completing a risk assessment). This data is transmitted to Meta to measure advertising effectiveness and enable delivery of relevant advertisements on Facebook and Instagram.
Server-Side Tracking — Meta Conversions API (CAPI)
In addition to the browser-based Pixel, we use the Meta Conversions API — a server-side tracking technology. When you take a significant action on our Platform (submitting a lead form, completing a risk assessment), our servers may transmit certain data directly to Meta's servers. This may include hashed versions of your email address, phone number, name, and other identifiers, along with a unique event ID for deduplication. This ensures accurate conversion attribution even when browser-based tracking is blocked.
Click Identifier (fbclid)
If you arrive via a Meta advertisement, Meta appends an fbclid parameter to the URL. We capture and store this identifier for ad attribution. It is shared with Meta as part of standard conversion reporting.
Your Choices
Manage Meta advertising preferences at facebook.com/adpreferences or opt out via the Digital Advertising Alliance. Declining non-essential cookies via our cookie banner disables the browser-based Pixel; however, server-side CAPI events may still be sent for form submissions already initiated.
Data Sharing with Meta
By using this Platform, you acknowledge that your behavioural data and, where provided, hashed contact information may be shared with Meta Platforms, Inc. and processed under Meta's Privacy Policy. We are the data controller for data we collect; Meta is an independent data controller for data processed on its platforms.
8c.SMS Text Alerts — "Prodigy Wildfire Alerts"
Our mobile application includes an optional SMS Text Alert feature. By enabling SMS Text Alerts, you expressly agree to receive recurring automated text messages from Prodigy Wildfire Solutions.
- Program: Prodigy Wildfire Alerts — wildfire safety notifications for your registered property.
- Message Frequency: Varies based on wildfire activity. During active fire events you may receive multiple messages per day.
- Automated Messages: Messages are sent using an automated system. Consent to receive automated messages is not a condition of purchase.
- Rates: Standard message and data rates may apply. Prodigy does not charge for the SMS service itself.
- Opt-Out: Reply STOP to any message at any time. You may also disable SMS alerts in the app under Account > Alert Channels.
- Help: Reply HELP or contact admin@prodigywildfire.com / 778-968-1200.
- Mobile Information: We will never sell, share, or disclose your mobile phone number or SMS opt-in data to third parties for marketing purposes.
For full SMS programme documentation see our SMS Opt-In Disclosure.
8d.Automated Calls, Voice AI & Call Recording
We use automated telephone dialling, AI voice assistants, and call recording technologies in connection with our services. By providing your phone number and consenting to be contacted, you acknowledge and agree to the following:
AI Voice Assistant (VAPI)
We use an AI-powered voice assistant service (VAPI.ai) to handle telephone interactions. When you interact with our AI voice service, you are communicating with an automated artificial intelligence system, not a human employee. Our AI voice assistant identifies itself as an AI where required by law.
Automated Outbound Calls (Twilio)
We may use automated telephony services (including Twilio) to place outbound calls for consultation scheduling, follow-up, and service delivery. Under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA, USA), Canadian telecommunications regulations, and the Australian Spam Act 2003, by providing your phone number you consent to receive such calls. Standard carrier rates may apply.
Call Recording & All-Party Consent
Calls with our team or AI voice assistant may be recorded for quality assurance, training, compliance, and service improvement. By initiating or accepting a call with us, you consent to recording. We comply with California's two-party consent law (California Penal Code § 632 and the California Invasion of Privacy Act — CIPA), BC's Privacy Act, and equivalent state and territory laws in Australia. Where required, we announce at the start of a call that it is being recorded.
TCPA Consent (USA)
For US residents: by providing your telephone number and requesting a consultation or callback, you expressly consent to receive calls and text messages from Prodigy using an automatic telephone dialling system or artificial or prerecorded voice, at the number provided. This consent is not a condition of any purchase. You may revoke consent at any time by contacting admin@prodigywildfire.com.
9.Lead Capture & CRM Data Flows
When you submit any form on this Platform — contact forms, consultation requests, risk assessment forms, partner enquiries, newsletter sign-ups, or landing page lead forms — you acknowledge that:
- The information you submit will be stored in our internal database and synchronised to our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system (currently Zoho Bigin) for the purpose of managing and responding to your enquiry.
- Your contact data, property information, consultation preferences, and any UTM/attribution data associated with your visit will be stored and may be used by our sales team to follow up with you.
- If you arrive via a Meta advertisement, your click identifier (
fbclid), campaign identifiers, and hashed contact details may be shared with Meta for conversion reporting (see Section 8b). - Submitting a form does not create a contractual relationship for supply of goods or services; such a relationship is only formed upon execution of a formal written agreement or purchase order.
- You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting admin@prodigywildfire.com, subject to any legal retention obligations.
10.Payment & Refunds
Some services are provided free of charge. Premium reports, consultation packages, system designs, and physical installations are subject to fees agreed in a separate written order or proposal. Prices are exclusive of applicable taxes (GST/HST/PST in Canada; GST in Australia; state and local taxes in the USA).
Digital Products & Reports
Due to the personalised and immediately accessible nature of digital risk reports, all sales are final once a report has been delivered. Refund requests for undelivered digital products will be considered case-by-case. Contact admin@prodigywildfire.com within 7 days of purchase.
Installation Services
Refund and cancellation terms for installation services are governed by the separate written agreement between the parties. In the absence of such agreement, deposits are non-refundable after commencement of design work.
Statutory Consumer Rights
Nothing in this Section limits any non-excludable statutory consumer rights under applicable law, including the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), BC's Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act, or applicable US state consumer protection statutes.
11.Third-Party Services & Data Sources
Our Platform integrates with numerous third-party services. Key providers for transparency:

We do not control these third parties and accept no responsibility for their acts or omissions. Third-party data used in risk assessments may contain inaccuracies or temporal delays. We make no warranty as to their accuracy, completeness, or currency.
Third-Party Links Disclaimer
The Platform may contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources. These links are provided for your convenience only and do not constitute an endorsement, approval, or recommendation by Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc. of any third-party website, its content, products, services, or privacy practices. We have no control over and accept no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any linked third-party website. You access linked websites entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of those websites. Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy do not govern your use of third-party websites.
12.Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PLATFORM AND ALL SERVICES, CONTENT, DATA, REPORTS, ASSESSMENTS, AND INFORMATION ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: (A) MERCHANTABILITY; (B) FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (C) ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR TIMELINESS OF RISK ASSESSMENTS, FIRE DATA, OR REPORTS; (D) NON-INFRINGEMENT; (E) THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE; AND (F) THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.
We do not warrant that our risk assessments, scores, or reports will accurately predict, prevent, or mitigate any wildfire event, property damage, loss, or injury.
Australian Consumers — ACL Mandatory Guarantees (Cannot Be Excluded)
Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2, Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)). Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy under the ACL that cannot lawfully be excluded. To the extent we are permitted to limit our liability for a failure to comply with an ACL consumer guarantee, our liability is limited, at our option, to: (a) in the case of goods — replacement or repair of the goods, or payment of the cost of replacing or repairing the goods; (b) in the case of services — re-supply of the services, or payment of the cost of having the services supplied again. Nothing in these Terms limits your right to seek compensation for loss or damage that is reasonably foreseeable as a result of a major failure with our services.
California — Proposition 65 Notice
WARNING (California Proposition 65): Prodigy Wildfire Solutions does not manufacture, supply, or distribute any physical product that is used, consumed, or handled by California residents through this Platform. Our Platform delivers digital information, AI-generated reports, and software services only. To the extent any physical products, installations, or materials supplied under a separate written installation agreement involve substances listed under Proposition 65 (Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, Cal. Health & Safety Code § 25249.6 et seq.), you will be notified of any applicable Proposition 65 warnings in the relevant installation agreement or product documentation prior to exposure.
Canadian Consumers: Nothing limits any non-excludable statutory rights under applicable provincial consumer protection legislation.
13.Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PRODIGY WILDFIRE SOLUTIONS INC., ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY:
- Loss of life, bodily injury, or property damage arising from or in connection with any wildfire event, regardless of whether you relied on our risk assessments, EmberWatch data, or any other service.
- Indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages of any kind.
- Loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, data, or anticipated savings.
- Costs of substitute services or procurement of replacement goods.
- Insurance claim denials, coverage disputes, or premium changes arising from use of our reports.
- Real estate transaction disputes, failed property sales, or planning decisions arising from use of our reports.
- Any matter beyond our reasonable control, including third-party data errors, telecommunications failures, or Force Majeure events (see Section 15).
OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO PRODIGY WILDFIRE SOLUTIONS INC. IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; OR (B) ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100) / ONE HUNDRED CANADIAN DOLLARS (CAD $100) / ONE HUNDRED AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS (AUD $100) — WHICHEVER CURRENCY APPLIES TO YOUR JURISDICTION.
Free-Service Floor: If you have paid nothing to Prodigy in the relevant period (e.g., you use only free features of the Platform), the minimum floor of USD/CAD/AUD $100 shall apply as the aggregate liability cap, ensuring this limitation is supported by adequate consideration and is not void for that reason.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law. Nothing limits liability that cannot be excluded by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our gross negligence, or for fraudulent misrepresentation.
13b.Hardware System Failure, Activation Failure & Insurance Disclaimer
No Guarantee of System Activation or Performance
THE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF A PRODIGY WILDFIRE DEFENCE SYSTEM DOES NOT GUARANTEE ACTIVATION, OPERATION, OR EFFECTIVENESS DURING ANY WILDFIRE EVENT. System performance depends on factors entirely outside Prodigy's control, including but not limited to:
- Availability of mains water pressure and flow rate at the time of a wildfire event.
- Electrical power supply to pumps, controllers, sensors, and network equipment.
- Internet connectivity and availability of third-party IoT platform services (including YoLink / YS Technology) at the time of an event.
- Physical condition, maintenance history, and integrity of installed hardware components.
- Obstruction, damage, or interference caused by third parties, falling debris, or fire itself.
- User error in system configuration, scheduling, or manual operation.
- False activation or premature depletion of water supply prior to a fire reaching the property.
- Failure of remote activation commands due to app, server, or connectivity outage.
An installed Prodigy system is one layer of a broader wildfire preparedness strategy. It does not replace evacuation, property hardening, ember-proofing, defensible space, insurance, or compliance with official emergency management instructions.
No Insurance Representation
Prodigy makes no representation that the installation of a wildfire defence system will: (a) result in eligibility for, or continuation of, any insurance policy; (b) reduce insurance premiums or result in insurance discounts; (c) satisfy any insurer's risk mitigation requirements; or (d) prevent an insurer from denying any claim. Installation of a Prodigy system may constitute a material modification to your property. You are solely responsible for notifying your insurer of any system installation and confirming your coverage remains valid. Failure to notify your insurer of modifications may void your existing coverage. We strongly recommend obtaining independent insurance advice before and after system installation.
Report on Errors — Reporting Period
If you believe that any risk assessment report, system specification, or other deliverable provided by Prodigy contains a material error, inaccuracy, or omission, you must notify us in writing within thirty (30) days of receiving the report or deliverable. Failure to provide notice within this period constitutes your acceptance of the deliverable as accurate and complete, and you waive any claim arising from the alleged error or inaccuracy beyond what can reasonably be attributed to our gross negligence or wilful misconduct. This reporting period applies as a condition precedent to any claim related to the content of our deliverables.
14.Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Prodigy Wildfire Solutions Inc., its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, actions, demands, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your breach of any provision of these Terms.
- Your violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right (including intellectual property and privacy rights).
- Your use or misuse of the Platform or any service.
- Any reliance by you or any third party on our risk assessments, reports, EmberWatch data, or recommendations.
- Any content you submit, post, or transmit through the Platform.
- Any dispute between you and a third party in connection with your use of the Platform.
Consumer Protection Carve-Out
Notwithstanding the above, if you are a consumer (an individual using the Platform for personal, domestic, or household purposes), this indemnification obligation applies only to the extent that the claim arises from your own gross negligence, wilful misconduct, fraud, or deliberate breach of these Terms. This consumer carve-out is required by applicable consumer protection law in California (Civil Code § 1668), Australian Consumer Law, and BC's Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act, and is incorporated to ensure the indemnification clause is not rendered void or unenforceable as against those laws. Nothing in this carve-out limits indemnification by business users or partners.
15.Force Majeure
Neither party shall be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from causes beyond their reasonable control ("Force Majeure Events"), including: acts of God; natural disasters; earthquakes; floods; severe weather; wildfires or fire-related events (including evacuations, road closures, or government orders related to wildfire emergencies); pandemics or public health emergencies; acts of government or regulatory authorities; strikes or industrial action; telecommunications or internet infrastructure failure; power outages; cyberattacks caused by third parties; war; civil unrest; or any other event outside reasonable control.
Given the nature of our business, the parties expressly acknowledge that wildfire-related Force Majeure Events may directly affect our ability to perform installation services, deliver consultations, or maintain Platform availability, and agree this shall not constitute a breach of these Terms. The affected party shall provide prompt notice and use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable.
16.Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict of laws principles. Subject to Section 17, you irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction require otherwise.
17.Dispute Resolution & Binding Arbitration
Step 1 — Mandatory Notice & Informal Resolution (30-Day Cure Period)
Before initiating any formal legal proceeding (including arbitration), you must send written notice to admin@prodigywildfire.com (Attn: Legal) describing: (a) your name and contact information; (b) the nature of the dispute; (c) the specific relief you seek; and (d) any relevant evidence. Both parties agree to negotiate in good faith for at least thirty (30) days from receipt of the notice before initiating arbitration or any other formal proceeding. This notice-and-cure period is a condition precedent to filing any claim and may not be waived.
Step 2 — Binding Individual Arbitration (USA & Canada)
AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE: YOU AND PRODIGY AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM — INCLUDING ANY QUESTION ABOUT THE EXISTENCE, VALIDITY, OR TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS — SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN COURT, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW.
Arbitration shall be conducted: (a) for US users — under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) Consumer Arbitration Rules, or such other rules as the parties agree, with proceedings conducted virtually or in a location mutually agreed; (b) for Canadian users — in Vancouver, British Columbia, under the BC Arbitration Act. A single neutral arbitrator shall preside. The arbitrator has authority to grant any relief available in court on an individual basis. The arbitrator's award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Arbitration fees: Prodigy will pay all arbitration filing fees and arbitrator costs for claims under USD/CAD $10,000, unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous. Each party bears its own legal fees except where applicable law provides otherwise.
30-Day Arbitration Opt-Out Right
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms by sending written notice to admin@prodigywildfire.com (Subject: "Arbitration Opt-Out") including your name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, disputes will be resolved in the courts of British Columbia (or courts of competent jurisdiction in your state for mandatory consumer claims). Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
Class Action & Mass Arbitration Waiver
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND PRODIGY EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION. ALL DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY ONLY. THE ARBITRATOR HAS NO AUTHORITY TO CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
This waiver does not apply where not enforceable by law (e.g., certain public injunctive relief claims under California law, or claims by consumers in jurisdictions that prohibit class action waivers).
Small Claims Court Exception
Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court of competent jurisdiction (e.g., BC Provincial Court Small Claims, US state small claims courts) for disputes within that court's monetary jurisdiction, provided the action remains on an individual (non-class) basis and does not seek injunctive or other equitable relief.
Injunctive Relief Exception
Either party may seek emergency injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration. Seeking such relief does not waive the right to arbitrate the underlying dispute.
Australia — Consumer Rights Preserved
The arbitration agreement in this Section does not apply to Australian consumers exercising statutory rights under the Australian Consumer Law or making complaints to the ACCC, OAIC, or relevant state/territory fair trading authority. Australian consumers may initiate proceedings in NCAT or applicable state tribunals for consumer law matters notwithstanding this arbitration clause.
18.Statute of Limitations — Time to File Claims
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE. If you fail to file within this period, the claim or cause of action is permanently barred, regardless of any statute of limitations to the contrary.
This shortened limitations period does not apply: (a) to claims by Australian consumers under the Australian Consumer Law, where applicable statutory limitation periods govern; (b) to claims by Canadian consumers where mandatory provincial limitation periods are shorter than 1 year; or (c) where applicable law prohibits contractual shortening of limitations periods for the relevant type of claim. In those circumstances, the applicable statutory limitation period applies.
19.Beta, Experimental & AI Features Disclaimer
The following features are provided on an experimental or beta basis and carry heightened limitations:
AI-Powered Risk Assessment Engine
Our wildfire risk assessment tool uses large language models (LLMs) and machine learning algorithms that are subject to inherent limitations including hallucinations, data drift, model error, and temporal lag in training data. Outputs are probabilistic, not deterministic. Do not make life-safety, insurance, property, or financial decisions based solely on AI-generated risk scores or narrative content.
EmberWatch Real-Time Fire Monitoring
EmberWatch displays real-time and near-real-time fire perimeter and active fire data from third-party government agencies. This data may be delayed by minutes to hours, may contain positional errors, and may omit fast-moving or newly-ignited fires entirely. EmberWatch must not be used as the sole or primary basis for evacuation decisions. Always follow official government emergency management and evacuation orders. Prodigy accepts no liability for any loss, injury, or death arising from reliance on EmberWatch data for evacuation or emergency routing purposes.
Evacuation Routing & Emergency Guidance
Any evacuation route suggestions, preparedness recommendations, or emergency guidance provided through our Platform or AI voice assistant are informational only. They are not official emergency management instructions and do not account for real-time road conditions, closures, or dynamic fire behaviour. Always follow instructions from local emergency services, fire authorities, and government emergency management agencies.
AI Voice Assistant (VAPI)
Our AI voice assistant is an experimental automated system. It may misunderstand questions, provide incomplete or inaccurate information, or fail to connect calls properly. Do not rely on the AI voice assistant for emergency services — call 911 (USA/Canada) or 000 (Australia) directly in any emergency.
General Beta Feature Terms
Features designated as "beta", "preview", "experimental", or "early access" are provided without warranty, may be discontinued at any time without notice, and are expressly excluded from our standard service level commitments. Your use of beta features is entirely at your own risk. Prodigy shall have no liability for any loss, damage, or harm arising from your use of beta or experimental features.
