Service Scope & Deliverables

The specific scope of services, deliverables, timelines, and fees will be outlined in a separate service agreement, statement of work, or proposal. These Terms apply to all engagements unless expressly modified in writing by both parties.

We strive to provide services that meet or exceed industry standards. However, we cannot guarantee that our services will eliminate all accessibility barriers or ensure perfect compliance in all cases, particularly where third-party systems or content are involved.

Client-Supplied Content

You are responsible for all content, materials, and information you provide to us. You warrant that you have the necessary rights and permissions to share such content with us and that it does not infringe upon the rights of any third party.

Intellectual Property Rights

Our Ownership

Armigil Consulting retains all intellectual property rights to our methodologies, tools, frameworks, documentation templates, assessment reports, and proprietary software used in delivering our services. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of our intellectual property to you.

Work Product

Upon full payment of all fees, you will receive a license to use the specific deliverables created for your engagement. The scope of this license will be defined in your service agreement. Armigil Consulting reserves the right to use generalized knowledge, techniques, and insights gained from your engagement to serve other clients, provided no confidential or proprietary information is disclosed.

Website Content

All content on our website—including text, graphics, logos, and code—is the property of Armigil Consulting or its content suppliers and is protected by copyright and intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our express written permission.

Confidentiality

We understand that our engagements may involve access to sensitive or proprietary information. We agree to:

• Hold all non-public information in strict confidence
• Limit access to employees and contractors with a legitimate need to know
• Use appropriate safeguards to protect against unauthorized disclosure
• Return or destroy confidential information upon completion of services, as requested

Confidential information does not include information that:

• Is publicly available or becomes public through no fault of our own
• Was known to us prior to disclosure by you
• Is independently developed without reference to your confidential information
• Must be disclosed pursuant to legal requirement or court order

Fees & Payment Terms

Fees for our services will be set forth in your service agreement, proposal, or statement of work. Unless otherwise stated:

• Invoicing: Invoices are issued according to the milestone or schedule agreed upon in your engagement documentation
• Payment Due Date: Payment is due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date unless otherwise specified
• Late Payments: Late payments may incur interest charges at a rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law
• Expenses: Pre-approved travel, materials, or third-party expenses may be billed separately at cost
• Taxes: All fees are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for paying all applicable sales, use, and value-added taxes

We reserve the right to suspend services if payment is not received by the due date. Suspension will not affect your obligation to pay outstanding balances.

Limitation of Liability

Disclaimer of Warranties

Our services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to:

• Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement
• Warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade
• Warranties regarding the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of our findings or recommendations

We do not warrant that our services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of vulnerabilities. You acknowledge that accessibility compliance depends on numerous factors beyond our control, including third-party systems, browser variations, and evolving standards.

Limitation on Damages

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Armigil Consulting shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, or goodwill, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability for any claims arising from or related to these Terms or your use of our services shall not exceed the total fees paid to us for the specific engagement giving rise to the claim, or one hundred dollars ($100 USD), whichever is greater.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for certain damages. In such cases, our limitations may not apply to you, and your local laws may provide additional rights.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Armigil Consulting, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and partners from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:

• Your use of our services or violation of these Terms
• Your content, representations, or conduct in connection with our services
• Your infringement or alleged infringement of third-party intellectual property rights
• Any dispute between you and another party related to our services

Termination

Either party may terminate an active engagement with written notice to the other party. Upon termination:

• All outstanding fees become immediately due and payable
• You must cease using any of our proprietary materials or methodologies
• We may withhold deliverables until payment is received in full
• Sections relating to intellectual property, confidentiality, liability, and indemnification survive termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to our website at any time for violations of these Terms or other appropriate reasons, with or without notice.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to reflect the original intent of the parties to the greatest extent permitted by law.

Waiver

The failure of either party to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. No waiver shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with any service agreements, statements of work, or other written documents executed by both parties, constitute the entire agreement between you and Armigil Consulting regarding our services, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements or communications.
