Terms of Use

Last updated 2026-06-30

Overview

This website is the personal professional profile of Zachary Montague ("we," "us," or "I"). By accessing or using the site, you agree to these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

Who may use this site

The site is intended for adults viewing professional information. It is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Informational purpose

Content on this site is provided for general professional information only. It is not legal, financial, medical, tax, or employment advice. Nothing on the site creates a client, employment, or contractor relationship unless agreed separately in writing.

No guarantees

The site and its content are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. I do not guarantee that the site will be uninterrupted, error free, complete, or current at all times.

Intellectual property

Site design, copy, images, and original materials are owned by Zachary Montague unless otherwise noted. You may link to public pages. Do not scrape, republish, frame, or commercially reuse content without prior written permission.

External links and third party services

Links to third party sites (such as LinkedIn, public registries, or AI platforms including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and Copilot) are provided for convenience. Those services have their own terms and privacy policies. I am not responsible for third party content, availability, or data practices. When you click an external link or use an "Ask AI" button, you leave this site and interact with that provider under its rules.

Machine readable and AI content

This site publishes professional profile context at /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt and allows AI crawlers described in robots.txt. That content is intentionally public professional information. Third party AI systems may process it according to their own policies.

Interactive terminal

The built in terminal is a client side navigation feature for exploring this profile. It does not provide shell access to any server. Do not use the site for unauthorized access, automated abuse, security testing without permission, or activity that violates applicable law.

Privacy

Your use of the site is also governed by the Privacy Policy, which explains what data may be processed, your rights, and how to contact me about privacy matters.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Zachary Montague will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. If you access the site from outside the United States, you are responsible for compliance with local law. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot be waived under applicable data protection law, including the GDPR where it applies.

Changes

These terms may be updated from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when they were last revised. Continued use after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

Contact

Questions about these terms may be sent by email or LinkedIn. Contact details are listed on the site.
