Welcome to Next Step Support. These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of nextstepsupport.net and any services you purchase or receive from Next Step Support, LLC (“Next Step Support,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using this website, submitting an inquiry or questionnaire, or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms.

Website Use

You may use this website for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You may not use the website in a way that could damage, disable, disrupt, or interfere with the site or another person’s use of it.

We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of this website at any time.

Service Information and Agreements

Information on this website is provided for general informational purposes and does not create a client relationship. Services, deliverables, timelines, fees, payment schedules, revisions, client responsibilities, and project scope will be confirmed in a separate written agreement, proposal, invoice, or statement of work.

If there is a conflict between these Terms and a written client agreement, the written client agreement controls for that project.

Client Responsibilities

Clients are responsible for providing accurate information, required access, content, approvals, account ownership, and other materials needed for the project. Delays in receiving required items may affect the project timeline, availability, scope, or delivery date.

Clients are responsible for reviewing deliverables and providing feedback within the timeframes established in their project agreement.

Fees, Payments, and Refunds

Fees and payment terms are set out in the applicable proposal, agreement, or invoice. Unless otherwise stated in writing, payments are due according to the payment schedule provided for the project.

Payments made for completed work, reserved project time, discovery, planning, or custom implementation are non-refundable except where otherwise required by law or expressly agreed to in writing. Any request to change, postpone, or cancel a project may affect fees, availability, scope, or timelines.

Third-Party Platforms and Tools

Our services may involve third-party platforms, software, integrations, hosting providers, payment processors, or other tools selected or approved by the client. These tools are governed by their own terms, pricing, policies, availability, and security practices.

Next Step Support is not responsible for changes, outages, errors, policy changes, fees, account restrictions, or discontinued features of third-party platforms. Clients are responsible for maintaining their own accounts, subscriptions, permissions, and payment obligations for third-party tools unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Intellectual Property

All website content, branding, graphics, text, processes, templates, and other materials on this website are owned by or licensed to Next Step Support unless otherwise noted. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, or use website materials for commercial purposes without prior written permission.

For client projects, ownership and usage rights for final deliverables will be stated in the applicable written agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Next Step Support retains ownership of its pre-existing methods, templates, frameworks, know-how, and reusable materials.

No Guaranteed Results

We provide operations support, systems implementation, workflow improvement, documentation, and related consulting services. We do not guarantee specific business outcomes, revenue, cost savings, platform performance, lead volume, or other results. Results depend on many factors outside our control, including client decisions, implementation, timing, team participation, and third-party systems.

Disclaimer

Website content and services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Nothing on this website is legal, financial, tax, employment, cybersecurity, or other professional advice. You should consult an appropriately qualified professional for advice specific to your circumstances.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Next Step Support will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages; loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity; or damages resulting from third-party platforms, client-provided information, or a client’s use of deliverables.

Where liability cannot legally be excluded, Next Step Support’s total liability related to a claim will not exceed the amount paid to Next Step Support for the specific services giving rise to that claim during the three months before the event giving rise to the claim.

This website may include links to third-party websites or services. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, availability, privacy practices, or policies of those third parties.
