Statement of moral accountability

Occuz is a tool designed to serve a wide range of users for link shortening and related services. While the platform itself is not religious in nature, the founders of Occuz affirm their belief in Yahshua - Jesus Christ, son of God, born of a virgin, who dwelt amongst us, was crucified under pontius pilate, as a ransom for many, died and was buried, defeated death, and resurrected on the 3rd day; assended into heaven and sits on the right hand of our father in heaven, to return back, reign and judge the world at the end of times - as God, Messiah, Lord, Savior, Lamb of God, and King of Kings.

We believe that all human actions, both online and offline, are ultimately accountable to God, who is the final judge of all people. This belief shapes our moral framework and our understanding of responsibility, truth, and integrity in how we conduct business and how our platform is used.

By using this platform, you acknowledge that it is operated by individuals who hold this belief. While no user is required to share this faith, we encourage all users to reflect on the moral implications of their digital actions and conduct themselves with honesty, respect, and responsibility.

All content created, shared, or linked through Occuz should be used ethically and responsibly. As the platform founders believe in eternal moral accountability before God, we reserve the right to restrict or remove content that promotes deception, harm, or abuse, even beyond what may be covered by secular law.

Occuz is committed to maintaining an inclusive and respectful environment for all users. No user will be denied access to the platform, its services, or features on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, national origin, disability, or any other characteristic protected under applicable law. Our moral framework informs our values, but does not justify discrimination or bias in our service operations or content moderation.

Severability

All rights and restrictions contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable. If any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it is the intention of the parties that the remaining provisions or portions thereof shall constitute their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof, and all such remaining provisions or portions thereof shall remain in full force and effect.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you and the company agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. You further agree to waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action against Occuz, its owners, directors, officers, or affiliates.

You may bring claims only on your own behalf and not on behalf of any other person or entity, and you expressly waive any right to file or join a class action or collective arbitration.

Dispute resolution

In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including but not limited to its breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve the matter through final and binding arbitration.

The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Arbitration Act of Ontario, by a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with such rules. The seat of arbitration shall be Ontario, Canada, and the proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on both parties and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If, for any reason, arbitration cannot be initiated or completed (including, but not limited to, refusal to arbitrate, failure to appoint an arbitrator, or failure of arbitration to result in a binding resolution within a reasonable timeframe), then the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any such unresolved dispute shall be the courts of Ontario, Canada. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

You and Occuz also agree to waive any right to a jury trial and to participate in any class action, class arbitration, or other representative proceeding.

Assignment

You may not assign, resell, sub-license or otherwise transfer or delegate any of your rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent, which consent shall be at our own sole discretion and without obligation; any such assignment or transfer shall be null and void. We are free to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, to any third party as part of the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or stock or as part of a merger.
