Terms of Service

Welcome to LedgerBridge Global ("we," "our," or "us"). By engaging our services or using our website, you ("Client," "you," or "your") agree to the following legally binding Terms of Service. These Terms apply to all services rendered by LedgerBridge Global and supplement any individual Engagement Letter or Statement of Work executed between the parties.

1. Nature of Services and Disclaimer of Advisory

LedgerBridge Global provides high-quality outsourced bookkeeping, accounting support, and back-office services for businesses and CPA firms globally. However, you acknowledge and agree that:

• We operate based solely on the financial data, records, and information you provide to us.
• We do not provide final tax, legal, or investment advisory services. Our work functions as preparatory back-office support.
• If you are a CPA firm, you (the CPA) act as the final reviewer and retain ultimate responsibility for all tax returns, audit sign-offs, and compliance filings submitted on behalf of your end-clients.
• If you are a business entity, you acknowledge that you must rely on your own retained legal or tax professionals for definitive financial guidance.

2. Scope of Work and Engagement Letter

The specific scope, deliverables, turnaround times, and pricing for each engagement are defined in a separate Engagement Letter or Statement of Work (SOW) signed by both parties prior to the commencement of services.

Any work requested beyond the agreed scope shall constitute a separate engagement and may be subject to additional fees. LedgerBridge Global is not obligated to perform tasks outside the documented scope unless mutually agreed upon in writing.

3. No Warranty Disclaimer

Our services are provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. While we employ rigorous internal review processes — including CA-level oversight — we do not warrant or guarantee that our deliverables will be entirely free from errors, omissions, or delays.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, LedgerBridge Global disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. The Client acknowledges that all deliverables must be independently reviewed and verified before submission to any regulatory authority, tax body, or third party.

4. Client Responsibilities and Indemnification

You agree to provide timely, accurate, complete, and lawful operational data. LedgerBridge Global relies entirely on the integrity of the data provided to perform our services.

Indemnification: You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LedgerBridge Global, its founders, officers, employees, and affiliates from any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including reasonable legal fees), or tax penalties resulting from:

• Inaccurate, incomplete, fraudulent, or delayed data provided by you.
• Your failure to review and verify the files or reports we deliver prior to final submission to relevant authorities.
• Any third-party claims arising from the Client's use of our deliverables without appropriate independent review.
• Your breach of any applicable laws, regulations, or professional standards.

5. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, LedgerBridge Global shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, tax penalties, regulatory fines, or business interruption, regardless of the cause of action or the theory of liability.

Liability Cap: In no event shall our total aggregate liability for any and all claims arising out of or related to these Terms or our services exceed the total amount of fees actually paid by you to LedgerBridge Global in the three (3) months immediately preceding the incident giving rise to the claim.

6. Payment Terms

All invoices are due within 15 days of the invoice date unless otherwise specified in the Engagement Letter. Payments shall be made via bank transfer or other methods mutually agreed upon.

• Late Payment: A late fee of 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower) may be applied to any overdue balance.
• Right to Suspend: LedgerBridge Global reserves the right to suspend all services if any invoice remains unpaid for more than 30 days, without liability for any resulting delays or consequences.
• Outstanding Balance on Termination: All outstanding fees must be settled in full prior to or upon termination of the engagement.

7. Confidentiality and Data Security

We treat your operational data with the highest level of confidentiality. We utilize secure access protocols and our team members operate under strict Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). Client data accessed or downloaded for processing is stored only on encrypted, password-protected devices for the duration of the active engagement. Upon completion of the assigned task or termination of the engagement, all locally stored client data is permanently deleted in accordance with our data retention policy.

8. Intellectual Property

All internal processes, methodologies, templates, standard operating procedures (SOPs), checklists, and proprietary tools developed by LedgerBridge Global remain the exclusive intellectual property of LedgerBridge Global. The Client retains full ownership of their financial data, records, and any reports specifically prepared for them under the engagement.

Neither party may use the other's name, logo, or trademarks for marketing or promotional purposes without prior written consent.

9. Force Majeure

LedgerBridge Global shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: natural disasters, pandemics, acts of government, internet or power outages, cyberattacks, civil unrest, or disruptions to third-party cloud platforms.

In such events, the affected obligation shall be suspended for the duration of the force majeure event, and deadlines shall be extended accordingly.

10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms, and any dispute arising from the engagement of LedgerBridge Global, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India.

Dispute Resolution: The parties agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation. If the dispute cannot be resolved within 30 days, it shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (India), before a sole arbitrator mutually agreed upon by both parties. The seat of arbitration shall be in the jurisdiction where LedgerBridge Global is officially registered.

The parties hereby consent to such jurisdiction and waive any objection to the venue.

11. Termination

Either party may terminate the standard month-to-month service engagement with 30 days prior written notice, subject to the clearance of any outstanding invoices.

• Upon termination, all your data access credentials will be revoked and returned to your control in accordance with our security policies.
• LedgerBridge Global may terminate the engagement immediately and without notice if the Client engages in fraudulent activity, provides knowingly false data, or materially breaches these Terms.

12. Amendments

LedgerBridge Global reserves the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via email or posted on this page. Continued use of our services after such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
