Indemnification of Responsibility

While we make every effort to maintain true and up-to-date information on the website, we cannot be held responsible for incorrect information or the results of using any information on the website.
Geneticks Canada offers laboratory tick testing services. While our test results can be useful in determining your risk of exposure to tick-borne diseases, you understand that our testing services are intended for informational purposes only and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Your receipt of a negative tick test from Geneticks Canada cannot guarantee that you will not contract the disease tested for, nor does a positive tick test from Geneticks Canada imply that you will necessarily contract the disease identified by the test. Additionally, while PCR-based testing is extremely accurate, there is always the small possibility of a false positive or negative.
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless, our subsidiaries, affiliates, related parties, employees, and related parties from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorney’s fees, that may be made by any third party, that is due to or arising out of your conduct or connection with this web site or service, your provision of Content, your violation of this Terms of Use or any other violation of the rights of another person or party.
