Effective date: September 1, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your use of jbdconsultingllc.com, operated by JBD Consulting LLC (“JBD,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
1. Informational Purpose Only
The content on this website is provided for general informational and business purposes. It is not a substitute for individualized tax, accounting, legal, investment, audit, or other professional advice. Tax laws, accounting standards, regulatory requirements, federal guidance, and professional standards change over time and may apply differently depending on your specific facts and circumstances.
References on this site to standards, frameworks, statutes, or government resources describe subject areas that may be relevant to JBD’s services. They do not imply endorsement, affiliation, or approval by any government agency, standards body, or regulatory authority.
You should not act, or refrain from acting, based on information on this website without seeking professional advice appropriate to your situation.
2. No Client Relationship or Engagement Created
Viewing this website, submitting a form, requesting a consultation, receiving general information, or accessing public resources does not by itself create a client relationship or professional engagement with JBD Consulting LLC.
An engagement begins only when JBD and the client have agreed in writing to the applicable scope, terms, responsibilities, timing, and fees. Until that point, no duty of care, confidentiality obligation, or professional responsibility arises from your use of this site, and you should not send us confidential or time-sensitive information in reliance on one.
3. Professional and Licensing Limitations
Certain services are subject to licensing, independence, jurisdictional, contractual, or professional-standard requirements. JBD provides only those services it is authorized, licensed, and appropriately staffed to perform.
In particular:
- Terms such as “audit,” “assurance,” “compliance,” and “review” used on this website should be interpreted in the context of the specific service description in which they appear.
- JBD’s audit-related services include non-attest internal audit, audit readiness, audit support, and compliance work. Independent financial-statement audits, reviews, and compilations are performed only where JBD is legally authorized and appropriately licensed and staffed for the specific engagement.
- Representation before the Internal Revenue Service or a state tax authority is provided or coordinated only by an authorized practitioner where required.
- JBD does not provide legal advice. Consult qualified legal counsel for legal interpretations, contracts, disputes, or other legal matters.
- JBD does not provide personalized investment advice or act as an investment adviser.
4. Permitted Use of the Website
You agree to use this website lawfully and only for informational, business, and service-inquiry purposes. You agree not to:
- Use the site in any way that violates applicable law or regulation
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the site, its systems, or any connected network
- Interfere with or disrupt the operation, security, or integrity of the site
- Introduce malicious code, or use automated tools to scrape, harvest, or overload the site
- Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any form
- Use the site to transmit unsolicited commercial messages
5. Client Portal
Where JBD provides a secure client portal, it is intended for authorized clients and approved representatives only. The portal is a communication and document-exchange tool; access to the portal does not by itself create an engagement. Services begin only after JBD and the client agree to the applicable scope and engagement terms.
Portal users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their credentials, for using unique accounts rather than shared logins, and for notifying JBD promptly of any suspected unauthorized access. Portal functionality and security controls depend in part on the third-party platform JBD uses. Use of the portal may be subject to additional terms.
6. Intellectual Property
Website text, branding, logos, original graphics, downloadable tools, templates, checklists, and other JBD materials are the property of JBD Consulting LLC or its licensors and may be protected by copyright, trademark, and other law.
You may view and print pages of this site, and use downloadable tools we provide, for your own internal business or personal reference. You may not reproduce, republish, redistribute, resell, or create derivative works from proprietary JBD materials except as permitted by law or with our prior written authorization.
7. Third-Party Links and Resources
This site links to external websites, including government agencies and standards organizations, for convenience and general information. JBD does not control third-party content and does not guarantee that external pages remain current, accurate, or complete. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, content, or policies of third-party sites. You should consult the issuing authority for the latest requirements.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
This website and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, JBD disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that information on it is complete or current.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, JBD Consulting LLC and its members, officers, employees, and contractors are not responsible for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising solely from your use of, or inability to use, this website, its general content, or third-party resources linked from it.
Responsibilities and remedies for a specific professional engagement are governed exclusively by the applicable engagement agreement, not by these Terms.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless JBD Consulting LLC and its members, officers, employees, and contractors from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses arising out of your misuse of this website or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
11. Privacy
Information submitted through this website is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please do not submit Social Security numbers, taxpayer identification numbers, banking credentials, passwords, or tax documents through the public forms on this site.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this website or these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Arlington County, Virginia, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
13. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, that provision will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
14. Changes to These Terms
JBD may update website content and these Terms from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page indicates when they were last revised. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
