By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you should not use the Website.
Semétrie™ is a research-led data analytics and practice. The Website is provided for general informational and business inquiry purposes only. It does not create an engagement, proposal, obligation, or client relationship of any kind.

An engagement begins only when Semétrie™ and the client have entered into a written agreement or written engagement confirmation signed or expressly accepted by both parties.
Semétrie™ works with clients internationally. Engagements are invoiced and payable in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Semétrie™ will work with available data in good faith but cannot verify or guarantee its accuracy, completeness, or suitability.
Semétrie™ is not responsible for any error, omission, limitation, loss, consequence, claim, or decision arising from data or information that is inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, outdated, unauthorized, unlawful, or otherwise unsuitable.
Clients and users are responsible for ensuring they have all rights, authority, permissions, consents, notices, and legal bases required to provide any information or data to Semétrie™, including under applicable data protection, privacy, confidentiality, and employment laws.
