These Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy govern the use of Evergreen Continuity Partners, its websites, communications, consulting services, strategic advisory services, operational guidance, business evaluations, AI implementation guidance, restructuring discussions, and all related interactions, whether verbal, written, digital, virtual, or in person.

By accessing this website, scheduling a consultation, submitting information, purchasing services, entering into an agreement, or engaging with Evergreen Continuity Partners in any capacity, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to all terms outlined below.

Evergreen Continuity Partners is a private business consulting, continuity advisory, modernization, and strategic support company built to help business owners evaluate, stabilize, modernize, restructure, grow, transition, or better understand the options available to them. The company may provide strategic insight relating to operations, ownership pressure, business continuity, AI implementation, modernization, positioning, internal systems, acquisition strategy, restructuring considerations, succession planning, exit preparation, cost analysis, business development, and other related advisory matters.

Evergreen Continuity Partners is not a law firm, accounting firm, tax firm, registered investment advisor, securities broker-dealer, bank, lender, fiduciary financial institution, public accounting agency, licensed financial planner, government agency, tax authority, valuation firm, insurance agency, or regulated financial institution. The company does not represent itself as any of the foregoing and does not provide services requiring a professional license unless such services are separately performed by a properly licensed third-party professional under a separate engagement.

All services, website content, communications, consultations, business discussions, written materials, digital materials, AI-related discussions, strategic opinions, and advisory conversations are intended to be educational, operational, strategic, consultative, informational, and analytical in nature. Any decisions made by a client, visitor, business owner, operator, investor, partner, or third party remain solely and entirely their own responsibility.

By using this website, scheduling a consultation, submitting information, purchasing services, entering into discussions, or engaging with Evergreen Continuity Partners in any capacity, each user and client acknowledges that business strategy is inherently uncertain, that no single approach fits every company, and that Evergreen Continuity Partners provides perspective, analysis, and guidance rather than guaranteed outcomes or licensed professional directives.

All content, communications, consultations, recommendations, opinions, discussions, strategies, reports, guidance, projections, operational reviews, implementation discussions, analyses, examples, hypothetical structures, workflows, AI discussions, financial modeling discussions, acquisition discussions, business evaluations, continuity discussions, restructuring conversations, or references provided by Evergreen Continuity Partners are strictly educational, informational, consultative, and strategic in nature. No statement made by Evergreen Continuity Partners, whether verbal, written, digital, implied, summarized, drafted, modeled, discussed, or presented, shall be interpreted as legal advice, tax advice, accounting advice, securities advice, investment advice, financial planning advice, lending advice, insurance advice, regulatory advice, compliance advice, employment law guidance, fiduciary advice, certified valuation advice, licensed restructuring advice, mergers and acquisitions legal representation, securities solicitation, investment solicitation, or an offer to buy or sell securities.

Evergreen Continuity Partners may discuss business structures, deal concepts, acquisition approaches, tax considerations, financing possibilities, retirement concepts, continuity strategies, equity arrangements, AI implementation, operational changes, cost reduction opportunities, and modernization frameworks. These discussions are intended to help business owners think more clearly and strategically, not to replace the judgment of licensed professionals. Any such discussion is based on business experience, generalized analysis, operational reasoning, market interpretation, hypothetical modeling, or strategic perspective and should never be relied upon as a substitute for advice from a qualified attorney, CPA, tax advisor, investment advisor, insurance professional, lender, compliance professional, or other licensed specialist.

Evergreen Continuity Partners does not guarantee financing, profitability, growth, funding approval, acquisition success, tax savings, operational results, AI implementation results, market performance, business continuity, retirement outcomes, valuation increases, legal compliance, regulatory treatment, lending acceptance, or any future financial result. Clients expressly acknowledge that business decisions involve risk, economic conditions are unpredictable, markets fluctuate continuously, AI technologies are evolving rapidly, regulatory conditions may change without notice, tax laws change frequently, lending environments change frequently, and business conditions may deteriorate unexpectedly even when reasonable strategies are pursued.

Clients remain solely responsible for independently verifying all information, conducting their own due diligence, evaluating the risks of any decision, and consulting with appropriately licensed professionals before implementing any strategy, structure, operational change, acquisition decision, financing decision, tax structure, succession structure, AI implementation, marketing initiative, restructuring initiative, or financial decision. Evergreen Continuity Partners strongly recommends that all clients maintain independent legal counsel and licensed financial, tax, and accounting advisors throughout any meaningful business decision-making process.

Evergreen Continuity Partners expressly disclaims all liability arising from client implementation of strategies, misinterpretation of discussions, business losses, operational losses, tax consequences, financing denials, acquisition failures, AI implementation failures, vendor failures, employee disputes, regulatory issues, compliance issues, economic downturns, third-party conduct, market volatility, technology disruptions, strategic disagreements, or any action taken or not taken by a client after receiving general consulting, strategic, or advisory input. Clients acknowledge that all final decisions remain solely their own.

Evergreen Continuity Partners operates as a highly customized strategic advisory and consulting company. Every business, ownership structure, operational environment, management team, market condition, and engagement dynamic is different. Because of this, all consulting relationships are inherently unique and may evolve over time depending on the needs of the client, the complexity of the situation, economic conditions, operational realities, and the strategic direction agreed upon between parties.

By engaging with Evergreen Continuity Partners, clients understand they are entering a consultative relationship centered around strategic analysis, operational guidance, modernization insight, business continuity thinking, problem solving, and advisory interpretation. Evergreen Continuity Partners does not function as an employee, officer, board member, fiduciary, licensed financial institution, legal representative, accounting firm, securities advisor, or guaranteed operational manager unless explicitly defined within a separately executed written agreement.

Consulting services may involve discussions surrounding operational systems, AI implementation, strategic growth opportunities, restructuring considerations, acquisitions, succession planning, cost reduction opportunities, modernization strategies, branding analysis, vendor analysis, staffing observations, automation systems, financial interpretation, organizational inefficiencies, digital positioning, continuity planning, or other business-related topics. Any such discussions remain strategic and consultative in nature and should not be interpreted as guaranteed outcomes, formal professional directives, or legally binding instructions.

Clients acknowledge that Evergreen Continuity Partners may provide candid opinions, strategic observations, operational interpretations, hypothetical scenarios, industry perspectives, or pattern-recognition based recommendations developed from prior business experience and analytical reasoning. These discussions are inherently subjective and may involve incomplete information, evolving conditions, assumptions, or forward-looking interpretations.

No communication, consultation, discussion, recommendation, verbal statement, message, email, text communication, website content, social media communication, AI-generated output, marketing material, proposal, roadmap, strategic framework, or operational conversation shall independently create any legal obligation, fiduciary responsibility, partnership structure, ownership interest, guaranteed engagement term, or mandatory performance obligation unless explicitly formalized in a signed written agreement.

Evergreen Continuity Partners reserves the unrestricted right to decline, pause, discontinue, modify, restructure, or terminate consulting relationships at any time where circumstances are deemed operationally unreasonable, ethically misaligned, excessively risky, abusive, fraudulent, financially unstable, legally questionable, reputationally damaging, or otherwise incompatible with the company’s standards or long-term direction.

Clients further acknowledge that business consulting is not an exact science. Strategic recommendations often require interpretation, implementation discipline, operational follow-through, leadership accountability, employee cooperation, market adaptability, and external conditions beyond the control of Evergreen Continuity Partners.

As such, Evergreen Continuity Partners shall never be responsible for a client’s inability or unwillingness to properly execute, maintain, evaluate, adapt, or operationalize any recommendations discussed.

Every business is different. Every owner is different. Every management team, financial position, employee base, market condition, customer base, industry cycle, operational bottleneck, debt structure, tax posture, technology stack, and succession issue is different. Because of that, Evergreen Continuity Partners makes no guarantees, promises, warranties, or assurances regarding the outcome of any consultation, strategy, recommendation, implementation, introduction, review, roadmap, analysis, AI discussion, modernization effort, growth effort, restructuring effort, acquisition discussion, exit discussion, or continuity plan.

Evergreen Continuity Partners does not guarantee revenue increases, profitability, funding approvals, tax savings, market performance, exit values, successful business sales, successful business acquisitions, operational performance, AI system performance, lead generation, advertising performance, SEO rankings, employee performance, future business valuation, improved retirement outcomes, improved personal financial outcomes, or any particular business result. Any reference to possible outcomes, examples, prior experiences, hypothetical models, business scenarios, strategic possibilities, or case-style discussions is for illustrative purposes only and should never be interpreted as a promise of future performance.

Business consulting is inherently dependent on information quality, owner participation, management discipline, available capital, employee cooperation, market conditions, timing, legal restrictions, lender decisions, vendor reliability, customer behavior, technology performance, and countless other factors outside the control of Evergreen Continuity Partners. Even well-reasoned strategies may fail or produce different results than expected.

Clients understand and agree that Evergreen Continuity Partners provides analysis, perspective, strategic thinking, and advisory support, but the responsibility for execution, follow-through, decision-making, implementation, financial risk, and operational results remains with the client. Past performance, prior experience, examples, analogies, or discussions of what may be possible shall never be treated as a guarantee of future results.

Clients are responsible for providing accurate, complete, timely, and honest information regarding their business, financial condition, ownership structure, operational problems, employee matters, tax position, legal concerns, debt obligations, vendor relationships, internal systems, current challenges, and goals. Evergreen Continuity Partners relies heavily on the information provided by clients when offering strategic observations or consultative guidance. If a client provides inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misleading, exaggerated, concealed, or selectively presented information, any resulting analysis or recommendation may be incomplete or ineffective.

Clients remain solely responsible for their own business decisions, legal compliance, tax compliance, accounting records, financial statements, employee conduct, lender relationships, vendor relationships, customer relationships, regulatory responsibilities, internal controls, cybersecurity practices, and implementation choices. Evergreen Continuity Partners may help identify issues, ask questions, provide strategic insight, discuss opportunities, or suggest areas of improvement, but the client retains full control and responsibility over all business operations and final decisions.

Clients agree not to misuse any strategy, framework, recommendation, AI workflow, operational discussion, financing concept, acquisition concept, restructuring concept, or other information shared by Evergreen Continuity Partners for fraudulent, misleading, unethical, unlawful, abusive, deceptive, or reckless purposes. Clients further agree that they will not represent Evergreen Continuity Partners guidance as licensed legal, tax, accounting, securities, investment, or financial advice to any third party.

Clients understand that meaningful business improvement often requires effort, discipline, transparency, operational accountability, employee cooperation, capital allocation, timely communication, professional review, and willingness to implement necessary changes. Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be responsible for a client’s refusal, inability, delay, inconsistency, mismanagement, emotional decision-making, lack of follow-through, or failure to properly execute strategies discussed during an engagement.

Due to the highly customized nature of Evergreen Continuity Partners services, all pricing, retainers, advisory fees, consulting structures, operational engagements, strategic reviews, implementation guidance, and project structures are determined individually on a case-by-case basis. Fees may vary based on the company’s size, operational complexity, urgency, strategic demands, time allocation, advisory depth, AI implementation scope, restructuring complexity, third-party coordination, travel requirements, ongoing accessibility, and the level of involvement requested or required.

Evergreen Continuity Partners may charge flat consulting fees, monthly retainers, strategic advisory retainers, project-based consulting fees, emergency consulting fees, intensive operational consulting fees, hybrid compensation arrangements, equity-related structures, revenue participation arrangements, performance-based components, or other custom structures agreed upon by the parties. No pricing model, fee structure, payment accommodation, discount, or custom arrangement offered to one client shall create any obligation to offer the same terms to any other client.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise in a separate written agreement, all payments are non-refundable. Retainers reserve strategic availability, intellectual capacity, advisory access, time allocation, and the ability of Evergreen Continuity Partners to make itself available for the client’s business needs. Consulting value is not limited to hours worked or documents produced. Clients acknowledge that strategic insight, operational interpretation, pattern recognition, experience, advisory availability, business reasoning, modernization perspective, AI implementation perspective, and intellectual capital are substantial forms of delivered value, even when outcomes depend on client execution or market conditions.

Evergreen Continuity Partners is under no obligation to provide refunds for unused time, delayed communication, postponed implementation, scheduling conflicts, client indecision, failure to provide information, failure to attend meetings, changes in business conditions, dissatisfaction with strategic conclusions, disagreement with recommendations, lack of implementation, or outcomes outside the control of Evergreen Continuity Partners. Once advisory time, strategic analysis, consultation, review, or intellectual work has been reserved, delivered, or made available, that value cannot be returned.

Invoices not paid within the agreed terms may result in suspension of services, cancellation of meetings, revocation of strategic access, pause of work product, late fees where legally permissible, termination of the engagement, collection activity, or other lawful enforcement action. Chargebacks, payment reversals, fraudulent disputes, or attempts to avoid agreed payment obligations after services, consultations, analysis, strategic guidance, or advisory time has been provided may result in immediate termination of services, legal enforcement actions where applicable, collection efforts, reporting to payment processors, and refusal of future services.

Special circumstances may be reviewed solely at the discretion of Evergreen Continuity Partners. Payment flexibility, pauses, revised terms, discounts, partial credits, goodwill accommodations, or courtesy considerations may occasionally be granted where appropriate, but no such accommodation shall establish precedent, obligation, waiver of rights, or future entitlement. Evergreen Continuity Partners reserves the right to modify pricing structures, engagement requirements, consulting availability, payment terms, or advisory structures at any time prior to a signed agreement.

Certain engagements may involve exploratory discussions regarding equity participation, advisory shares, strategic partnership structures, revenue participation, performance incentives, joint operational initiatives, acquisition structures, rollover structures, management support, growth participation, or other business arrangements. These discussions may occur as part of strategic consulting, but they do not create any binding ownership, partnership, fiduciary, employment, investment, securities, or joint venture relationship unless fully documented in a separate written agreement signed by all required parties.

Verbal discussions, exploratory conversations, emails, text messages, hypothetical models, proposed deal structures, draft frameworks, business ideas, acquisition concepts, or strategic brainstorming shall not constitute a binding agreement to form a partnership, transfer equity, issue compensation, share revenue, assume management control, create voting rights, or create legal obligations. Any equity, ownership, revenue participation, management involvement, or performance-based relationship must be specifically negotiated, reviewed, and executed in a separate written agreement.

Clients acknowledge that business ownership and equity arrangements may involve legal, tax, securities, governance, valuation, operational, and regulatory issues. Evergreen Continuity Partners does not provide legal or securities advice regarding such arrangements and strongly recommends that all parties consult independent counsel and licensed professionals before entering any equity, partnership, revenue share, acquisition, or ownership-related agreement.

Evergreen Continuity Partners respects the sensitivity of business owner communications, operational disclosures, financial discussions, strategic concerns, employee issues, succession matters, technology questions, and private company information. In the ordinary course of consulting, clients may voluntarily share business records, internal problems, operational details, financial summaries, systems information, vendor information, employee concerns, personal objectives, succession goals, family considerations, or other confidential materials.

Evergreen Continuity Partners will use reasonable efforts to treat non-public client information with care and discretion. Information voluntarily provided may be used for consulting analysis, strategic discussions, service delivery, internal operational purposes, engagement documentation, communication management, and other legitimate business purposes related to the client relationship. Evergreen Continuity Partners does not knowingly sell private client information for unrelated resale purposes.

However, clients acknowledge that no method of communication, electronic transmission, website submission, cloud storage, AI system, scheduling system, CRM system, email platform, payment processor, or digital platform can be guaranteed completely secure. Internet communication is never fully immune from cyberattacks, breaches, outages, unauthorized access, technical failures, human error, platform compromise, or third-party misuse. Clients share information voluntarily and assume the ordinary risks associated with digital communication and online business operations.

Clients are responsible for protecting their own devices, passwords, credentials, bank records, accounting systems, employee records, internal documents, customer data, intellectual property, trade secrets, and company systems. Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be responsible for unauthorized access caused by client negligence, weak passwords, insecure devices, compromised accounts, third-party platforms, vendor failures, or circumstances outside the company’s reasonable control.

Nothing in this confidentiality section shall prevent Evergreen Continuity Partners from preserving, disclosing, or using information where reasonably necessary to enforce agreements, defend legal claims, prevent fraud, respond to legal process, protect company rights, comply with applicable law, prevent harm, investigate misuse, or address payment disputes, chargebacks, threats, abusive conduct, or unlawful activity.

All materials, concepts, frameworks, systems, strategies, written materials, digital materials, reports, recommendations, analyses, roadmaps, AI workflows, business models, positioning concepts, operational structures, consulting methods, marketing language, website materials, branding concepts, visual concepts, process designs, training materials, and other materials created, distributed, written, designed, developed, presented, discussed, or shared by Evergreen Continuity Partners remain the intellectual property of Evergreen Continuity Partners unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Clients may receive access to certain materials, frameworks, documents, or strategic concepts during the course of an engagement solely for their internal business use and only in connection with the specific services provided. Such access does not transfer ownership, authorship, licensing rights, resale rights, publication rights, derivative rights, or unrestricted usage rights unless expressly stated in a written agreement.

Clients may not resell, republish, redistribute, reproduce, license, copy, reverse engineer, commercialize, train AI systems on, publicly present as their own, or claim ownership over any proprietary materials, strategies, processes, frameworks, written work, AI workflows, operational systems, consulting structures, or related intellectual property without prior written consent from Evergreen Continuity Partners.

Any unauthorized use, reproduction, distribution, or misappropriation of Evergreen Continuity Partners intellectual property may result in termination of services, revocation of access, legal enforcement, damages claims, injunctive relief, or other remedies available under applicable law.

Evergreen Continuity Partners may discuss, reference, review, compare, suggest, or coordinate with third-party software providers, AI platforms, lenders, vendors, agencies, contractors, professionals, marketing platforms, CRM systems, automation tools, payment processors, accountants, attorneys, consultants, technical providers, or other service providers. Any such discussion or reference is provided for general strategic, operational, or informational purposes only and shall not be interpreted as a guarantee, endorsement, warranty, or assumption of responsibility for the conduct or performance of any third party.

Clients are solely responsible for conducting their own due diligence before engaging any third-party service provider. This includes reviewing contracts, pricing, licenses, compliance requirements, security practices, service limitations, refund policies, terms of use, professional qualifications, insurance coverage, data practices, and any associated legal or financial risks.

Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be responsible for third-party failures, vendor performance, platform outages, lending decisions, tax outcomes, advertising outcomes, AI errors, software malfunctions, data loss, contractor conduct, professional negligence, missed deadlines, security breaches, pricing changes, service interruptions, implementation failures, or any damages arising from a client’s use of third-party services.

Any client decision to engage a third party is made independently and at the client’s own discretion and risk, even if such third party was discussed during a consultation or referenced as a possible resource.

Evergreen Continuity Partners may discuss, recommend, assist with, review, design, help implement, or provide strategic guidance regarding modern technologies including AI systems, automation systems, software workflows, operational platforms, digital marketing systems, content systems, analytics tools, CRM systems, data organization tools, website systems, and related technologies. These technologies may be powerful, useful, and strategically valuable, but they are also evolving, imperfect, and dependent on proper implementation, review, monitoring, and human judgment.

Clients acknowledge that AI systems may produce inaccurate, incomplete, biased, outdated, misleading, fabricated, or inappropriate outputs. Automation systems may fail, software platforms may change without notice, integrations may break, data may be misread, permissions may be configured incorrectly, and technology tools may not perform as expected. No AI system, automation workflow, or software recommendation should be relied upon without human review and appropriate professional oversight where necessary.

Evergreen Continuity Partners does not guarantee AI performance, automation reliability, software uptime, technical compatibility, future platform stability, regulatory compliance of third-party tools, data accuracy, implementation success, cybersecurity strength, advertising performance, SEO outcomes, content performance, or operational transformation resulting from any technology-related discussion or implementation.

Clients remain fully responsible for reviewing all AI outputs, automations, software configurations, website changes, marketing materials, data transfers, compliance implications, employee access permissions, cybersecurity practices, and system behavior. AI and automation should never replace licensed legal, financial, tax, accounting, compliance, securities, insurance, or professional review where such review is required or appropriate.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Evergreen Continuity Partners, including its owners, operators, contractors, consultants, affiliates, representatives, advisors, partners, vendors, employees, licensors, successors, and assigns, shall not be liable under any circumstance for indirect damages, consequential damages, special damages, punitive damages, incidental damages, lost profits, lost business opportunities, lost enterprise value, lost goodwill, lost financing opportunities, lost acquisitions, operational interruptions, AI implementation failures, technology disruptions, software errors, automation failures, market losses, tax liabilities, accounting discrepancies, regulatory actions, legal disputes, vendor disputes, employee disputes, data breaches, cybersecurity incidents, reputation damage, economic downturns, business closure, emotional distress, mental distress, future opportunity losses, strategic disagreements, third-party conduct, government actions, market volatility, lending denials, compliance failures, or misinterpretation of guidance.

Clients expressly acknowledge that business consulting inherently involves uncertainty and that business performance depends upon numerous uncontrollable external factors. Operational execution is controlled by the client, not Evergreen Continuity Partners. Recommendations may not produce intended outcomes. Markets can change rapidly. Economic conditions may negatively impact all strategies discussed. AI systems may produce inaccurate outputs. Technology platforms may fail unexpectedly. Employees, vendors, customers, lenders, regulators, investors, buyers, sellers, and other third parties may act unpredictably or contrary to expectations.

Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be liable for any actions taken or not taken by clients, vendors, lenders, accountants, attorneys, employees, agencies, contractors, software providers, buyers, sellers, investors, partners, family members, or third parties. Under no circumstance shall Evergreen Continuity Partners be responsible for client implementation decisions, internal employee behavior, vendor failures, financing failures, tax outcomes, legal interpretations, securities interpretations, market conditions, investment outcomes, operational execution failures, technology compatibility issues, AI hallucinations or inaccuracies, advertising outcomes, SEO performance, software uptime, third-party integrations, or business decisions made by the client.

Maximum aggregate liability under any theory of law, whether contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, statutory claim, equitable claim, or otherwise, shall never exceed the total amount directly paid by the client to Evergreen Continuity Partners during the thirty (30) days immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Clients further agree that Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be liable for claims arising more than ninety (90) days after the alleged event occurred, and any claim not raised within that period shall be considered waived to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Clients waive any right to seek class action participation, punitive damages, consequential damages, emotional distress damages, speculative future damages, lost opportunity calculations, or damages based on hypothetical business outcomes. All claims must first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiation prior to formal legal action.

13. INDEMNIFICATION

Clients agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Evergreen Continuity Partners and all related owners, operators, representatives, affiliates, contractors, consultants, advisors, partners, vendors, employees, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, disputes, legal actions, losses, costs, fees, judgments, settlements, penalties, investigations, or expenses arising out of or related to client decisions, misuse of services, regulatory violations, fraudulent activity, client negligence, unauthorized implementation of strategies, third-party disputes, breach of these terms, inaccurate information provided by the client, unlawful conduct, improper reliance on general consulting guidance, or disputes with employees, vendors, lenders, buyers, sellers, investors, partners, regulators, customers, family members, or other third parties.

This indemnification obligation includes reasonable attorney fees, collection costs, investigation costs, defense costs, and other expenses incurred by Evergreen Continuity Partners in responding to claims, disputes, allegations, chargebacks, legal actions, government inquiries, or third-party demands arising from the client’s conduct, business operations, representations, omissions, or implementation decisions.

The obligations in this section shall survive termination of services, cancellation of engagements, completion of projects, expiration of agreements, or discontinued use of the website.

Evergreen Continuity Partners reserves the right to decline, pause, suspend, restrict, or terminate services at any time for any lawful reason, including but not limited to non-payment, abusive conduct, harassment, excessive scope expansion, fraudulent behavior, misrepresentation, ethical concerns, legal concerns, operational conflicts, reputational concerns, repeated failure to provide necessary information, refusal to cooperate, unsafe communication, improper use of materials, or conduct deemed inconsistent with the standards of Evergreen Continuity Partners.

Clients may terminate services according to the terms outlined within their individual written agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, termination by the client does not eliminate outstanding payment obligations, unpaid invoices, earned fees, reimbursement obligations, confidentiality obligations, intellectual property restrictions, indemnification obligations, or any other provisions intended to survive termination.

Evergreen Continuity Partners may also terminate or refuse services where a client’s business appears to involve unlawful activity, deceptive practices, abusive employment conduct, regulatory violations, unethical behavior, reputational risk, or circumstances that would require Evergreen Continuity Partners to act outside its values, standards, or legal comfort. In such cases, Evergreen Continuity Partners shall not be required to continue work, provide additional explanation beyond reasonable notice, or maintain any ongoing advisory relationship.

Termination of services does not guarantee a refund and does not invalidate these Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, limitation of liability, intellectual property protections, payment provisions, confidentiality provisions, indemnification terms, or dispute resolution provisions.

Message and data rates may apply depending on the user’s carrier or service provider.

By using the website, scheduling consultations, purchasing services, submitting information, or engaging with Evergreen Continuity Partners, clients and users agree that any dispute shall first be attempted to be resolved informally and in good faith before litigation, arbitration, collection action, or other formal proceeding is initiated, unless immediate action is reasonably necessary to protect legal rights, confidential information, intellectual property, payment obligations, or company interests.
