These terms govern your use of thehamiltonhall.com. Hamilton Hall publishes the site. Hamilton Hall is a search-fund and succession vehicle formed to find, acquire, and transition a healthy business, with the aim of safeguarding an owner’s legacy. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please leave the site.
The site is informational
The pages describe Hamilton Hall’s purpose, focus, and story. They are general information. They are not an offer to sell securities, a solicitation to invest, or a promise that any introduction, conversation, or transaction will occur. Nothing on the site is legal, tax, investment, or other professional advice. You should rely on your own advisors for decisions about a business.
An inquiry is not a contract
Sending a message through the contact form does not create a contract. Information on this site about Hamilton Hall, a meeting, a succession conversation, or an event is not a booking, and it is not an agreement to acquire a business, invest, advise, or provide services. No booking or other contract is formed unless the parties later agree in a separate writing that says so. Until that writing exists, either side may decline to go further, and no fee, date, or obligation should be treated as confirmed.
Using the site
You may read the site for lawful personal or professional reference. You agree that you will not:
- Interfere with the site, probe it for weaknesses, or attempt to reach systems, accounts, or data you are not given.
- Submit false information through the form, or use the form to send spam, malware, or unlawful content.
- Copy the site in a way that misrepresents Hamilton Hall.
- Scrape, flood, or otherwise overload the site so that it works less well for others.
We may refuse a message, or limit access to the site, when use is abusive, misleading, or unlawful.
Intellectual property
The text, photographs, and design of this site belong to Hamilton Hall or its licensors. You may link to a page. You may not copy the site’s materials for a commercial purpose, or present them as your own, without prior written permission.
Links to other sites
Some pages link to outside resources, including articles and research about search funds. Those sites set their own terms and privacy practices. A link is a pointer for further reading. It is not a statement that Hamilton Hall controls the destination, or that every sentence there is endorsed.
Disclaimer
The site is provided as is and as available. Hamilton Hall does not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, free of errors, or fit for a particular purpose. Biographical and business descriptions are offered in good faith and may change. We may correct, update, or remove material without notice.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Hamilton Hall and the people who operate it are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, goodwill, or data, arising out of your use of the site or your reliance on its content. This applies whether the claim is in contract, tort, or any other theory, and whether or not we were advised that such damages were possible.
Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the greater of one hundred U.S. dollars (USD 100) or the amount you paid Hamilton Hall specifically to use this website. Use of this informational site is not charged. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations. In those places, the limits apply only as far as the law permits. Nothing in these terms limits liability for conduct that cannot legally be limited.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The state and federal courts located in Indiana are the venue for disputes arising from these terms or from use of the site, except where a law that cannot be waived requires a different forum. You agree to that venue and to personal jurisdiction there for such disputes.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. When we do, we will change the effective date at the top of this page. If you keep using the site after an update is posted, you accept the revised terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the site.
Contact
Questions about these terms can be sent through the contact form. Please say that your note concerns the terms of use. The public way to reach Hamilton Hall is that form. You can also read the Privacy Policy.
