Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of this website, operated by [[LEGAL ENTITY]] ("Obsidian Ledgers", "we", "us"). By using the site you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
These are website terms, not your service contract. Bookkeeping services are governed by a separate written engagement agreement, provided and signed before any work begins. Where the two differ, the engagement agreement governs the services.
No professional advice
Everything published on this site is general information about our services. It is not accounting, bookkeeping, tax, legal, or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for advice about your circumstances. Do not act on anything here without appropriate professional guidance. We are not certified public accountants, and we do not provide audit, attest, or tax representation services.
No client relationship is created here
Submitting the questionnaire, booking a discovery call, or emailing us does not create a professional relationship and places neither of us under obligation. That relationship begins only when a written engagement agreement has been signed by both parties.
Pricing shown on this site
Prices are starting points, shown to help you gauge which service level fits. They assume the transaction volumes and scope described alongside them. Your actual fee depends on the complexity of your books, the condition of your existing records, the number of accounts and entities involved, and any catch-up work required.
Final pricing is always confirmed in writing before work begins. Prices may change at any time, and nothing on this site is an offer capable of acceptance.
Service commitments
Response times and deliverables listed with each service level describe what we aim to provide under an active engagement, measured during normal business hours, and depend on our receiving the records and access we need from you. They take effect through your engagement agreement, not through this site.
Testimonials and results
Client comments on this site are individual experiences. They are not a guarantee or prediction of the outcome for your business. Figures describing our practice are accurate as at the date shown and are not a promise of future performance.
Acceptable use
Please use this site lawfully. You agree not to submit false information or another person's details, use the questionnaire to send automated, bulk, or spam submissions, attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site or its systems, interfere with its operation, or copy its content or code for commercial use without our permission.
Intellectual property
The content, design, branding, and code of this site belong to us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property law. You may view and print pages for your own use in evaluating our services. Any other reproduction, distribution, or adaptation requires our written permission.
Links to other sites
Where we link to a third party, we do so for convenience. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, or for their privacy and security practices.
Availability
We aim to keep this site available and accurate, but we provide it "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, and we may change, suspend, or withdraw it at any time.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of this site. Our total liability for any claim relating to this site is limited to one hundred US dollars ($100). Liability under a signed engagement agreement is governed by that agreement, not this clause. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify us against claims, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of this site.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of [[STATE]], without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Disputes relating to this site are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in [[COUNTY/CITY]], and we each consent to that venue.
Changes
We may update these terms. The effective date above will change when we do, and continuing to use the site means you accept the revised terms.
Severability
If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in force.
