Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of coreybenschop.com (the “Site”) and any related tools, content, diagnostics, communications, and services offered by Corey Benschop (“I,” “me,” or “my”). By accessing or using the Site or services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site or services.

1. Who may use the Site

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Site and services. If you use the Site on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” includes that entity.

2. Services overview

I provide professional services that may include websites, private workflow applications, AI automations, consulting, diagnostics, and related deliverables, as described on the Site or in a separate proposal, statement of work, or written agreement. Free tools on the Site (such as a profitability plan diagnostic) are informational aids and not a substitute for a paid engagement unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing.

3. Separate project agreements

Paid work is typically governed by a separate written agreement, proposal, invoice terms, or statement of work. If there is a conflict between those documents and these Terms, the project-specific document controls for that engagement. These Terms still apply to your use of the Site and free tools.

4. Free diagnostic and informational content

Content on the Site and outputs from free tools — including scores, findings, plans, estimates, recommendations, and similar materials — are provided for general informational purposes only. They are not legal, financial, tax, medical, or other professional advice for your specific situation. Results may be incomplete, inaccurate, or unsuitable for your business. You are solely responsible for decisions you make based on Site content or tool outputs.

AI-assisted features may produce errors, omissions, or generic suggestions. You should review all outputs carefully before relying on them.

5. Accounts, submissions, and accuracy

When you submit information through forms, diagnostics, email, or other channels, you agree that the information is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to provide it. You are responsible for obtaining any internal approvals needed before sharing business information with me.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

I may suspend or terminate access for violations of these Terms or for misuse of the Site.

7. Intellectual property

The Site, including its design, text, graphics, logos, software, and other materials (excluding your pre-existing materials), is owned by me or my licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. You receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to access and use the Site for its intended purpose. No other license is granted.

Unless a separate agreement says otherwise: (a) you retain ownership of materials you provide to me; (b) I retain ownership of my pre-existing tools, frameworks, templates, code libraries, know-how, and methods; and (c) ownership of custom deliverables created specifically for you under a paid engagement is as set out in that engagement’s agreement. If no ownership terms are stated for a paid engagement, you receive a non-exclusive license to use the final deliverables for your internal business purposes, and I retain ownership of underlying tools and reusable components.

8. Feedback

If you provide feedback, ideas, or suggestions about the Site or services, I may use them without restriction or compensation to you.

9. Third-party services

The Site and services may depend on or link to third-party platforms (hosting, email/CRM, AI providers, scheduling tools, and similar). I am not responsible for third-party services, availability, or terms. Your use of third-party services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

10. Fees and payment

Fees for paid services, payment schedules, and refund terms (if any) are set out in the applicable proposal, invoice, or agreement. Unless stated otherwise, fees are non-refundable once work has begun or a deliverable milestone has been met. Late amounts may incur late fees or suspension of work as described in the project agreement.

11. No warranties

THE SITE, FREE TOOLS, AND RELATED CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, I DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. I DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE OR OUTPUTS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT RESULTS WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS OR PRODUCE PARTICULAR BUSINESS OUTCOMES (INCLUDING REVENUE, COST SAVINGS, OR PROFITABILITY IMPROVEMENTS).

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, I WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE, FREE TOOLS, CONTENT, OR SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MY TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID ME FOR THE SPECIFIC SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE THREE (3) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100) IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID FOR THE SERVICES AT ISSUE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS; IN THOSE CASES, MY LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

13. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Corey Benschop and my contractors and agents from and against claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site or services; (b) your content or materials; (c) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; or (d) your infringement of any third-party right.

14. Privacy

My collection and use of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

15. Suspension and termination

I may suspend or stop providing the Site or any feature at any time. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

16. Changes to these Terms

I may update these Terms from time to time by posting a revised version on the Site and updating the “Last updated” date. Continued use of the Site after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms, except where applicable law requires a different process.

17. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state or jurisdiction in which Corey Benschop principally operates, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in that jurisdiction will have exclusive venue for disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site, except that I may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction to protect intellectual property or confidential information. If you are a consumer with mandatory local rights, those rights are not waived where waiver is prohibited by law.

18. Miscellaneous

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and me regarding the Site, except for separate project agreements covering paid work. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. My failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without my prior written consent; I may assign them in connection with a reorganization or transfer of assets. Notices may be provided by email or by posting on the Site.
