Terms

Who we are

In short: Masonry is run by Ministry of Masonry. This website describes Masonry and lets you write to us.

• In these terms, “Masonry”, “we”, “us” and “our” mean Ministry of Masonry, which operates Masonry and this website.
• Masonry is a tool a family uses to build and run its own family office. This website describes it and lets you contact us by email, including to ask for early access.
• These terms cover this website and its contact form only. If we offer Masonry itself to you, separate terms will apply, and we will show them to you first.
• You can reach us at hello@ministryofmasonry.com.

Accepting these terms

In short: by using this website, you agree to these terms.

Using the site

• A request for early access does not commit you to anything, and you can withdraw it at any time by writing to us.
• Early access is an invitation we may choose to offer. We decide when and to whom we offer it. A request does not reserve a place or any particular feature.
• Descriptions of Masonry on this website are general and may change at any time.

What you must not do

• This website may link to websites or services run by others. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, availability or privacy practices.
• The website relies on service providers to run, such as our hosting and email delivery providers. Our Privacy Policy describes them.

No professional advice

In short: Masonry is a tool. It does not give advice of any kind, and every decision stays with you.

Disclaimers

In short: we provide this website as it is.

• The website is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, we make no warranties or representations of any kind, express or implied, including about accuracy, completeness, availability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement.
• We do not promise that the website will always be available or secure, or that it will contain no errors or harmful components.

Limitation of liability

In short: our responsibility for this website is limited, except where the law says it cannot be.

• To the fullest extent the law allows, Ministry of Masonry is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, revenue, data, opportunity or goodwill, arising from your use of, or reliance on, this website.
• Where we are responsible to you, it is only for loss that is a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or failing to use reasonable care and skill, to the extent the law allows.
• Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited or excluded under the law that applies to you.
• If you use this website as a consumer, you keep every right that consumer law gives you and that cannot be waived.

Indemnity

In short: if your misuse of this website causes us a loss, you are responsible for it.

• To the extent the law allows, you agree to indemnify Ministry of Masonry against claims, losses and reasonable costs arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of the website.

Suspension and termination

In short: we may restrict access if the website is misused, and you can leave at any time.

Governing law and disputes

In short: talk to us first. If you are a consumer, the law where you live still protects you.

• If you have a concern about this website, please write to us first. Most issues can be resolved quickly and informally.
• If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or another country with mandatory consumer protections, nothing in these terms removes those protections, and you may bring a claim in the courts where you live.
• Any other dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be decided by a court with jurisdiction over it under the applicable law.

General

In short: the usual legal housekeeping.

• These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about this website.
• If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
• If we do not enforce a term straight away, we can still enforce it later.
• You may not transfer your rights under these terms. We may transfer ours as part of a reorganisation, merger or sale of our business, without reducing your rights.
• No one other than you and us has any right to enforce these terms.
• These terms are written in English. If we provide a translation, the English version prevails where the law allows.
