USE OF OUR SERVICES

TERMS & CONDITIONS

Updated November 7, 2026

Agreement

By accessing the website or using the services, you agree to these terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the website or services. You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement.

Educational and career-exploration purpose

Sparta Vista provides general education, planning frameworks, community, career exploration, and organizational support. Content and tools are informational and are not financial, investment, tax, legal, medical, mental-health, insurance, credit-repair, or individualized professional advice. We do not guarantee benefits eligibility, approval, investment performance, income, employment, interviews, compensation, business success, or any specific result.

Mission Decisions and career matches

Mission Decisions is a short, scenario-based exploration of workplace preferences. It is not a clinical, diagnostic, vocational aptitude, psychological, or validated employment-selection test. Career matches may consider information such as your MOS or rating, experience, education, certifications, preferences, location, compensation goals, and employer requirements. Results are estimates and conversation starters; they may be incomplete or incorrect.

Sparta Vista do not intend an employer to use Mission Decisions or an automated match as the sole basis for hiring, rejection, promotion, or another employment decision. A human should review the underlying information and match explanation. You may request correction of profile information or an accessible alternative. Employers remain solely responsible for lawful recruiting, accommodations, interviews, background checks, offers, and employment decisions.

Career-service roles and data boundaries

Sparta Vista may provide the website, acquisition, intake, enrichment, and matching experience. Sparta Vista handles career-service and employer inquiries, with contracted service providers assisting as described in the Privacy Policy. Veteran benefits, claims, medical, and disability information must not be used to rank, screen, or match a person for employment. A veteran profile may be introduced to an employer only through an authorized career-services process.

Employer participation

An employer submitting an inquiry agrees to provide accurate business and hiring information and to use candidate information only for legitimate, lawful employment purposes. An inquiry does not create exclusivity, a staffing agreement, a candidate guarantee, or a partnership. Any pilot, subscription, placement fee, service level, data-processing obligation, or hiring commitment must be stated in a separate written agreement.

Independent professional advice

You remain responsible for your decisions. Consult appropriately qualified and licensed professionals before acting on matters involving finances, taxes, law, insurance, investments, health, disability benefits, or other regulated services. Any regulated service offered in the future will be identified separately and provided only through appropriately licensed persons or entities.

Accounts, submissions, and acceptable use

You agree to provide accurate information, safeguard credentials, and use the services lawfully. You may not interfere with site operation, probe security, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person, submit information without authority, scrape or reproduce protected content at scale, discriminate unlawfully, or use the services to violate another person’s rights. Do not submit Social Security numbers, financial credentials, medical or claim records, disability documentation, or other highly sensitive information through general forms.

Purchases and cancellations

Prices, deliverables, scheduling terms, cancellation rules, and any refund policy presented at checkout or in a written service agreement become part of these terms. Unless a specific written policy states otherwise, completed consultations and delivered digital or customized materials are non-refundable to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in these terms limits non-waivable consumer rights.

Intellectual property

The website, Sparta Vista name and branding, Personal Economy Map, Mission Decisions content, written materials, graphics, software, and other original content are owned by or licensed to Sparta Vista and protected by applicable law. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable right to use materials for personal, noncommercial use. No ownership rights are transferred.

Sparta Vista case-update text messages

Phone numbers are required on our intake and 90-day-plan request forms. Providing a number or submitting a form does not, by itself, consent to automated texts. On case-intake forms, you may separately choose an unchecked, optional consent box for nonmarketing automated alerts, notifications and reminders about your request or case progress. Consent is not a condition of purchase or receiving services. Requesting only the 90-day plan does not enroll you in case-update texts.

SMS service is not active yet. We will not send automated texts until the sending setup and consent, STOP and HELP handling have been verified. If activated for people who have opted in, message frequency will vary and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to stop texts or HELP for help. For help or to withdraw consent before activation, email hello@spartavista.com. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

These messages are for requested service updates, not promotions or partner marketing. Do not send medical records, claim details, Social Security numbers or financial information by text. See our SMS privacy notice for how mobile information and consent are handled.

Third-party services

The services may link to or rely on third-party platforms, occupational databases, CRMs, communications tools, or employer sites. We do not control third-party content, availability, security, hiring practices, or terms. References to research or third-party data are for transparency and do not imply endorsement.

Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the website and services are provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, completely secure, or bias-free operation, or that a recommendation will remain current as jobs and requirements change.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Sparta Vista and its owners, personnel, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, opportunities, or goodwill arising from your use of the services. Our aggregate liability for a claim will not exceed the amount you paid us for the service giving rise to that claim during the preceding six months. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so portions of this section may not apply.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sparta Vista and its owners and personnel from third-party claims arising from your unlawful misuse of the services, your violation of these terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.

Changes and termination

We may modify or discontinue features and may suspend access for violations, security risks, or legal reasons. We may update these terms by posting a revised version and effective date. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.

Governing law

These terms are governed by Ohio law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction serving Stark County, Ohio, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

General terms

If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these terms without consent; we may assign them in connection with a business transfer. These terms, the Privacy Policy, and any applicable written service agreement constitute the agreement concerning the services.
