Terms of Service

1. About Us

DollarCut ("we", "us", "our") provides operational improvement, AI automation, systems integration, and related consulting services to businesses. Our registered business and primary contact is: hello@dollarcut.app.

2. Services

DollarCut offers bespoke professional services. The scope, deliverables, timeline, and pricing for each engagement are agreed separately in a written Statement of Work (SOW) or client agreement. These Terms of Service apply to all engagements and govern the relationship between DollarCut and the client.

Free sessions (such as our 30-minute initial consultation) do not constitute a binding engagement and are provided as a courtesy to explore whether our services are a good fit. We reserve the right to decline any engagement at our discretion.

3. Fees and Payment

• Fees for services are set out in the agreed SOW or proposal.
• Invoices are payable within 14 days of issue unless otherwise agreed in writing.
• Late payments may be subject to statutory interest under applicable law.
• We reserve the right to pause or suspend work on an engagement where invoices remain unpaid beyond the payment deadline.
• All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes (including VAT) unless stated otherwise.

4. Intellectual Property

Work product ownership

Upon receipt of full payment for an engagement, DollarCut assigns to the client all intellectual property rights in the specific deliverables created for that client under the relevant SOW, to the extent those rights are owned by DollarCut.

Pre-existing IP and tools

DollarCut retains ownership of all pre-existing intellectual property, methodologies, frameworks, tools, code libraries, and know-how used in or developed independently of the engagement. A non-exclusive licence to use such elements within the deliverables is granted to the client for the purpose they were built.

Website content

All content on this website, including text, graphics, and design, is owned by DollarCut and may not be reproduced without written permission.

5. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public information disclosed during an engagement that is designated as confidential or that a reasonable person would consider confidential given the context. This obligation does not apply to information that is publicly available, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law.

We are happy to sign a mutual NDA prior to any initial session on request. Contact us at hello@dollarcut.app.

6. Data Processing

Where DollarCut processes personal data on behalf of a client as part of delivering services, the parties shall enter into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) in accordance with the UK GDPR and/or EU GDPR as applicable. The DPA will set out the subject matter, duration, nature, and purpose of the processing, the type of personal data involved, and the categories of data subjects.

DollarCut will process such data only on documented instructions from the client, and will implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect that data.

For information about how DollarCut handles data it collects about you as a visitor or contact, see our Privacy Policy.

7. Warranties and Representations

DollarCut warrants that:

• Services will be performed with reasonable skill and care.
• Deliverables will materially conform to any agreed specifications.
• We have the right to enter into agreements and provide the services described.

The client warrants that:

• They have the authority to enter into agreements and to grant any access or data necessary for service delivery.
• Any information or materials provided to DollarCut do not infringe third-party rights.

Except as expressly set out here, all warranties, conditions, and representations (express or implied) are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

• DollarCut's total aggregate liability under or in connection with any engagement (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client for the relevant engagement in the 12 months preceding the claim.
• DollarCut shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, or special loss or damage, including loss of profit, revenue, business, data, or goodwill, even if advised of the possibility of such loss.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability that cannot be excluded by law.

9. Termination

Either party may terminate an engagement by giving written notice as specified in the SOW (or, if not specified, 30 days' written notice). In the event of termination:

• The client shall pay for all work completed up to the date of termination.
• DollarCut shall deliver any completed or substantially completed deliverables.
• Either party may terminate immediately upon material breach by the other party that remains uncured after 14 days' written notice.

10. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from circumstances beyond their reasonable control, including natural disasters, acts of government, industrial disputes, or infrastructure failures, provided that the affected party notifies the other promptly and takes reasonable steps to mitigate the impact.

11. Governing Law and Disputes

These terms and any disputes arising from them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Both parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, except that either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Before commencing formal proceedings, both parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation for a period of 30 days following written notice of the dispute.

12. General

• Entire agreement: These terms, together with any SOW or client agreement, constitute the entire agreement between the parties regarding the relevant engagement and supersede all prior representations, agreements, and understandings.
• Severability: If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
• No waiver: Failure to enforce any provision of these terms shall not constitute a waiver of the right to enforce it in the future.
• Variation: These terms may only be varied by written agreement signed by both parties.
• Assignment: Neither party may assign rights or obligations under these terms without the other party's prior written consent, except that DollarCut may assign to a successor entity in the event of a merger or acquisition.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of our website or services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. Material changes affecting active engagements will be communicated to affected clients directly.
