Terms of use
How the RIA Refuge Collection website may be accessed and used.
Purpose
These terms set out how the RIA Refuge Collection website may be accessed and used. Browsing the site constitutes full acceptance of them.
Nature of the site
This is an informational site for property owners. It describes a short-term rental management service in the Outaouais, Gatineau and Ottawa. It does not allow a stay to be booked, a cottage to be rented, or a contract to be signed online.
The information published is indicative and does not constitute a contractual offer. Any engagement is governed by a separate written agreement, signed after the property has been assessed.
Regulatory information
Statements about short-term rental — municipal zoning, permits, CITQ registration, condominium rules — are provided for information and may change. They do not constitute legal advice. Each property is verified individually during the audit, and it remains the owner's responsibility to ensure compliance.
Access
Access is free of charge, excluding connection costs. RIA Refuge Collection works to keep the site available but cannot guarantee it, particularly during maintenance, technical failure or force majeure.
Contact form
The form is intended for enquiries relating to RIA Refuge Collection's activity. Users undertake to provide accurate information and not to use it for unsolicited canvassing, unlawful content or intrusion attempts.
RIA Refuge Collection reserves the right not to follow up on an enquiry, without having to give reasons.
Liability
RIA Refuge Collection maintains the site with care but does not warrant that the information is accurate or complete. It cannot be held liable for any damage arising from use of the site or from being unable to access it.
Changes
RIA Refuge Collection may amend these terms at any time. The applicable version is the one online at the time of consultation.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws applicable in the Province of Quebec and the laws of Canada applicable therein. Failing an amicable settlement, the courts of the judicial district of Gatineau shall have sole jurisdiction.
