Terms of Service

Atelier Order Book — last updated 8 August 2026

These terms govern your use of Atelier Order Book (the "service"), operated by Arnaud Rouillot Consulting, a sole proprietorship registered in British Columbia, Canada ("we", "us"). By signing in you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

1. What the service is

Atelier Order Book is web-based software for small leather-goods studios: an order timeline and calendar, client records, invoicing, inventory tracking, order documents, and optional integrations with Gmail, Google Calendar and third-party AI models. Features may be added, changed or removed as the software develops.

2. Accounts

An account is issued to a studio and to the individuals it names. You are responsible for everything done under your account.
Keep your password confidential and change it from the default. Tell us promptly if you believe an account has been compromised.
You must be at least 16 years old and legally able to enter a contract.
Do not share one account among people who should have their own.

3. Your data stays yours

You keep all rights to the clients, orders, invoices, documents, mail and other content you put into the service. You grant us only the limited licence needed to store, process and display that content in order to operate the service for you. We claim no ownership of it and do not use it to train AI models.

You are responsible for having the right to enter the data you enter — including your own clients' personal information — and for meeting your own obligations to them under applicable privacy law.

4. Connected Google accounts

Connecting Gmail or Google Calendar is optional and requires your explicit consent through Google's own screen. You choose which permissions to grant, and features are enabled only for permissions actually granted.
You may disconnect at any time in Settings → Email/Calendar, or revoke access directly at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
Your use of Gmail and Google Calendar remains subject to Google's own terms. Our handling of data from them is described in the Privacy Policy and follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
The service never sends a message you have not composed and submitted yourself, and holds no permission capable of permanently deleting mail.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Use the service to send spam, bulk unsolicited mail, or anything unlawful, fraudulent or harassing;
Attempt to access another studio's data, or probe, scan or interfere with the service's security;
Reverse engineer, resell or sublicense the service, or use it to build a competing product;
Automate access in a way that degrades the service for others, or circumvent rate limits;
Upload malware, or content you have no right to upload.

We may suspend an account that breaches this section, with notice where circumstances allow.

6. AI features

Suggested replies and generated images are produced by third-party models and can be wrong, misleading or unsuitable. They are drafts. You are responsible for reviewing anything generated before you send, publish or rely on it. Enabling these features requires you to supply your own vendor API key, and your use of that vendor is subject to the vendor's terms and charges.

7. Invoices and tax

The service calculates Canadian sales tax and produces invoices from the rates and settings you configure. Those figures are a convenience, not accounting or tax advice. You remain responsible for the accuracy of what you issue to your clients and for your own tax compliance. Once an invoice leaves draft, the service deliberately freezes what it says.

8. Availability, backups and beta status

The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. It is early-stage software: there may be downtime, defects and breaking changes. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, and you should keep your own backups of anything you cannot afford to lose.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost business or lost data, arising from your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the service in the twelve months before the claim, or CAD $100. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including under consumer protection legislation.

10. Termination

You may stop using the service at any time and ask us to delete your account and its data (see the Privacy Policy, section 7). We may terminate or suspend an account for breach of these terms, or discontinue the service entirely, with reasonable notice and an opportunity to export your data where feasible.

11. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms as the service changes. The "last updated" date above reflects the current version, and material changes will be announced in the service before they take effect. Continuing to use the service after a change takes effect means you accept the revised terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia, except where mandatory local consumer law gives you the right to bring proceedings elsewhere.
