Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Margin LLC ("Margin", "we", "us"). By accessing or using this website, the Margin Calculator™ tool, our newsletter, or any content we publish, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

If you use the site on behalf of a firm or organization, you confirm you have authority to bind that organization.

You may use this site for lawful business purposes: learning about our services, running the Margin Calculator™ estimate for your own practice, contacting us, and reading our materials.

You agree not to: copy, resell or commercially exploit the site or its content without our written permission; use automated tools to scrape, harvest emails, or overload the site; interfere with security or access controls; upload malicious code; use the site to send unsolicited messages; or misrepresent your affiliation with us.

The Margin Calculator™ tool asks questions about how your practice runs and returns an estimate of hours and dollar value that could be recovered. It is an estimate based on the numbers you enter and our own assumptions. It is not a quote, an invoice, a guarantee of savings, or accounting, tax, or legal advice.

Actual results depend on your clients, your pricing, and how the work is done. Your answers stay in your browser unless you submit them to us.

The site's design, text, layout, names, and logos are ours or our licensors'. We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, revocable license to view and download materials for your own internal business use. Nothing transfers any ownership to you.

If you send us information, questions, or ideas through a form or email, you grant us a non-exclusive license to use it to respond to you and to improve our services. Please do not send us confidential client material before an engagement letter is in place.

Margin, the Margin logo, Margin Map™, Margin Calculator™, and other Margin marks are trademarks of Margin LLC. Third-party names and logos are the property of their owners and are used for identification only.

The site may link to third-party websites, tools, or services. We do not control them, are not responsible for their content or practices, and a link is not an endorsement. Their terms and privacy policies apply to your use of them.

Consulting, build, and partner work is governed by a separate written engagement agreement. Where these Terms conflict with an engagement agreement you have signed with us, the engagement agreement controls for that work.

Nothing on this site creates a professional-client relationship, and nothing on the site is legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice.

The site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that defects will be corrected.

You are responsible for your own use of AI tools and for complying with your professional, contractual, and confidentiality obligations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Margin LLC and its owners, employees, and contractors are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the site — even if we were told of the possibility.

Our total liability for any claim arising from the site is limited to the greater of one hundred US dollars (US$100) or the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

If you use the site in a way that violates these Terms or the law, you agree to indemnify and hold Margin LLC harmless from claims, damages, and reasonable legal fees arising from that use.

We may change or discontinue any part of the site at any time, and we may update these Terms. Continued use after an update means you accept the updated Terms; the "Last updated" date above shows the current version.

We may suspend or block access to the site for violations of these Terms, and either of us may end use of the site at any time.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [STATE], without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and the courts located in [CITY, STATE] have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from them, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any competent court.

If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest of the Terms remain in effect.
