Terms of Service

Last updated: July 24, 2026

These Terms of Service govern your use of this website, operated by Highlands Community Charter and Technical Schools (HCCTS).

Draft content notice

Sections marked below with a highlighted placeholder have not yet been reviewed or approved by HCCTS leadership or legal counsel. They are included so this page is complete and functional, and should be finalized before being relied upon as an official legal statement.

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use this site.

Permitted Use

You may use this website to learn about HCCTS programs, locations, and services, and to find the contact information and external links (such as our registration platform) needed to submit an inquiry or enrollment request.

Prohibited Activity

You agree not to use this site to:

  • Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any external system linked from this site (such as our registration platform)
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of this site or its underlying systems
  • Interfere with or disrupt the operation of this site
  • Use automated means (bots, scrapers) to extract content from this site outside of standard search-engine indexing
  • Upload or transmit any unlawful, harmful, or infringing content

Content Accuracy

We make reasonable efforts to keep the information on this site accurate and current, including program details, locations, and contact information. However, we do not guarantee that all content is complete, current, or error-free, and information is subject to change. For the most current program and enrollment details, please contact HCCTS directly.

Availability

We aim to keep this site available and functioning, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The site may be unavailable at times for maintenance, updates, or reasons outside our control.

Educational Purposes

This site is provided to inform prospective and current students, families, and community members about HCCTS programs and services. Nothing on this site should be treated as a binding offer of admission, financial aid, or enrollment; enrollment and program participation are governed by HCCTS's official enrollment process and school policies.

User Submissions

This site does not host its own contact or enrollment form. If you submit information through an external system linked from this site (such as our registration platform), that submission is governed by this section and by the terms of that external system. Please do not submit content that you do not have the right to share, or that is unlawful, abusive, or infringes on someone else's rights.

Intellectual Property

The text, images, logos, and other content on this site are owned by HCCTS or used with permission, unless otherwise noted, and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and share pages of this site for personal, non-commercial, informational purposes. Any other use — including reproduction, redistribution, or modification of site content — requires prior written permission from HCCTS.

Third-Party Services

This site links to external systems operated by other organizations (for example, our registration system, board portal, and social media pages). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those third-party sites once you leave this site.

Disclaimers

This site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Limitation of Liability

[PLACEHOLDER — REQUIRES LEGAL/LEADERSHIP REVIEW: A specific limitation-of-liability clause, including governing jurisdiction, has not been drafted or approved for this site. This section should be completed by HCCTS leadership or legal counsel before this page is treated as final. In the interim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, HCCTS is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of this site.]
