Website terms

Last updated August 21, 2026.

bctek is based in Redding, California, serving Shasta County and the surrounding area.

1. Agreement to Terms

These Website Terms ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("you," "your," or "User") and bctek ("we," "us," "our," or "Company"), governing your access to and use of https://bctek.us and any related website features, content, contact forms, and support intake forms (collectively, the "Service").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by posting a notice on the Service or by updating the date above. Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. Eligibility

To use the Service, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater.
  • Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
  • Not be prohibited from using the Service under applicable law.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

3. Informational Website and Separate Service Agreements

This website provides general information about bctek and its services. Website content is not a proposal, guarantee, professional opinion, or promise that a service is available for a particular project.

Services, scope, timing, deliverables, payment terms, service levels, warranties, and fees are confirmed only in a separate written agreement, statement of work, work authorization, invoice, or other written confirmation. Sending a form does not create a client relationship, create an emergency support obligation, reserve work, or require either party to proceed.

4. Use of the Service

4.1 License Grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business purposes.

4.2 Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights.
  • Engage in any illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful activity.
  • Upload, transmit, or distribute any viruses, malware, or other harmful code.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other accounts, or computer systems.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service.
  • Scrape, crawl, or use automated means to access the Service without our express written permission.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service.
  • Use the Service to send unsolicited commercial communications or spam.
  • Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
  • Collect or harvest personal information of other users without their consent.
  • Use the Service in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair it.
  • Submit passwords, protected health information, payment card numbers, or other sensitive information through public website forms.

5. Accounts and Support Access

The public Website does not currently offer general account registration. Some support or client-portal features may require a secure session, invitation, token, or other authorization if they are enabled. When you access any protected feature, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information, keep credentials and access links secure and confidential, and notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

You are responsible for all activity that occurs through access links, sessions, or credentials provided to you, whether or not you authorized it. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain the security of your access credentials.

6. Payments and Billing

The Website may describe services but does not by itself create a paid engagement. Fees, estimates, hourly rates, deposits, payment due dates, late charges, refund eligibility, and hardware or software purchasing terms must be confirmed in a separate written agreement, invoice, estimate, or work authorization.

If third-party payment processors are used, payments are processed by those providers. By making a purchase or payment, you agree to the applicable payment processor's terms of service and privacy policy.

7. Intellectual Property Rights

All content, features, and functionality of the Service, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio clips, video clips, data compilations, and software, are owned by bctek, its licensors, or other providers and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any material from the Service except as permitted by these Terms or with our prior written consent.

8. User Content and Form Submissions

You retain ownership of information and content you submit through the Service. By submitting content, you grant bctek a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, copy, store, transmit, and process that content as needed to respond to your inquiry, provide support intake, administer the Website, protect against abuse, comply with law, and provide requested services.

You represent and warrant that:

  • You own or have the necessary rights to submit the content you provide.
  • Your content does not violate any third-party rights, including intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights.
  • Your content does not contain unlawful, defamatory, abusive, malicious, or otherwise objectionable material.

9. Third-Party Links and Services

The Service may contain links to third-party websites, tools, products, services, or resources that are not owned or controlled by bctek. We are not responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.

Third-party names, marks, and product references belong to their respective owners. Links and references are provided for convenience and do not imply endorsement unless expressly stated.

10. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND COURSE OF DEALING OR PERFORMANCE.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free; that defects will be corrected; that the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components; or that the Website content is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or suitable for your needs.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL BCTEK, ITS OWNER, AFFILIATES, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In those jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. This limitation does not limit liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

12. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless bctek from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms, your use of the Service, your violation of any third-party right, or your submission of unlawful, infringing, or harmful content.

13. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including if you breach these Terms, misuse the Website, submit abusive or malicious content, or attempt unauthorized access. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease immediately.

14. Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect your information. By using the Service, you consent to the collection and use of information as described in the Privacy Policy.

15. Governing Law and Venue

These website terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from use of this website will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Shasta County, California.
