Our Services aggregate information from various sources, and while we strive to offer the most reliable information, Worcester ADU does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the data and results provided through our Services. If you identify any discrepancies or errors in the data or our interpretation of it, we encourage you to inform us.

By utilizing our Services, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

• The information available through the Services may be outdated or incorrect and should not be construed as professional advice or a guarantee of project feasibility. Simply put: Constructing ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) can be costly and complex. Avoid making significant decisions like starting construction or obtaining financing based solely on the information from this website. It's crucial to consult with qualified professionals in the field.

• Our Services are not an alternative to official codes and land-use approvals from the appropriate authorities. The information we provide does not ensure that your project will receive approval. Our Services offer an initial assessment of eligibility. Remember: if you're considering moving forward with a project, professional guidance is invaluable.

​

Worcester ADU and its Services do not offer financial, real estate, or architectural advice and should not be relied upon for such purposes. This site is not intended to be a guarantee of eligibility or a substitute for hiring professional surveyors. Always hire a professional to perform a detailed feasibility analysis before building an ADU.

We endeavor to provide and maintain our Services with a commercially reasonable level of skill and care. However, our Services are offered 'as is', and Worcester ADU does not extend any specific guarantees regarding the Services. This includes, but is not limited to, assurances about the content's quality, the Services' reliability and availability, or their accuracy, except as explicitly outlined in these Terms. We disclaim all warranties to the maximum extent that the law allows. In jurisdictions where it is permissible, Worcester ADU will not be held accountable for any form of financial or economic loss, including but not limited to loss of profits, revenue, data, or other indirect, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for any claims arising under these terms, including for any implied warranties, is capped at the amount you have paid to use the Services, as allowed by applicable law. Worcester ADU is not responsible for any loss or damage that is not reasonably foreseeable.

We reserve the right to modify or expand these Terms periodically. Any updates will be reflected on our website. We advise you to review the Terms regularly, especially when using our Services.
