Clear expectations for The Forge, Forge Tools, and The Foundry.

These terms are between you and Redline Livestock, operating The Forge by Redline, RR2, Didsbury, Alberta T0M 0W0, Canada. You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter a binding agreement. If you act for a farm, company, or partnership, you confirm that you have authority to bind it. Additional written terms shown for a specific tool or offering also apply; if they conflict, the more specific terms govern.

The Foundry is an ongoing guided farm business program. Each enrolment covers a 12-month term beginning with the participant’s stated cohort date and includes the sessions, resources, community spaces, and participant-only Forge Tools described at purchase. The program’s core categories provide continuity, while specific topics, facilitators, experts, and delivery details may evolve to keep the work useful and current. We will not materially reduce the overall program without an appropriate remedy. The Foundry does not renew automatically unless you later give express agreement to a clearly disclosed re-enrolment offer.

Foundry enrolment is a commitment to the program, and payments are non-refundable. We understand that exceptional circumstances can arise. If you are unable to participate due to a significant and unexpected circumstance, please contact us. Requests will be considered individually, and any refund, credit, or transfer offered will be at the discretion of The Forge. Missed sessions, scheduling conflicts, failure to participate, or a change of mind do not qualify for a refund. Separately purchased Forge Tools follow the refund terms provided at the time of purchase.

You are responsible for providing a working email address, protecting access links and devices, and notifying us of suspected unauthorized use. Tool synchronization is intended to improve continuity across devices, but you should export or retain independent copies of information that is important to your operation. We may limit or suspend access reasonably to protect accounts, investigate misuse, comply with law, or address security threats.

We will identify sessions that are recorded and explain how recordings will be used and who may access them. Do not record a session yourself without written permission. You retain ownership of your pre-existing materials and farm information. If you voluntarily contribute comments, questions, or examples, you give us permission to use them only as reasonably needed to deliver the program; public testimonials, promotional use, or identifying case studies require separate permission.

We use third-party services for hosting, authentication, email, payments, community, and file storage. Their availability and separate terms may affect the service. We may make reasonable maintenance, security, compatibility, or product changes. We do not promise uninterrupted access, permanent availability of any free tool, or that every feature will work on every device, but we will use reasonable efforts to provide purchased services as described.

You are responsible for decisions made using the services and for confirming important calculations and professional requirements. To the extent permitted by law, The Forge is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages arising from the services. Any aggregate liability relating to a paid offering will not exceed the amount you paid for that offering during the 12 months before the claim. These limits do not apply where prohibited by law or to liability that cannot legally be limited.

Our Privacy page explains how personal information is handled. We may update terms prospectively for free services or future purchases, but will not materially change an existing paid term without notice and any consent required by law. These terms are governed by the laws of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Courts in Alberta have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory consumer right to bring a claim elsewhere. If one term is unenforceable, the remaining terms continue.
