Engagement Disclaimer

Last updated: May 12, 2026

The brand audits, identity systems, pitch decks, landing pages, advisory hours, and other consulting deliverables sold by Advantage Design & Consulting (Advantage Design & Consulting Inc, a California corporation) are professional consulting deliverables. This page explains what they are — and what they are not.

Not legal, tax, financial, or licensed-professional advice

Our deliverables are not legal advice, tax advice, investment advice, accounting opinions, fairness opinions, or anything that requires a licensed attorney, CPA, registered investment adviser, or other regulated professional in your jurisdiction. Strategy memos, market notes, and pitch materials are business consulting outputs and must not be relied upon as a substitute for licensed counsel.

No guarantee of business outcome

We make no representation or warranty that following our recommendations, using our brand work, or shipping our landing pages will result in any specific traffic, conversion, revenue, fundraising, hiring, valuation, or other commercial outcome. Sample metrics, comparable case studies, and reference projects shown on the Site or in deliverables are illustrative only.

Trademark, copyright, and likeness clearance

Logo, naming, and brand-identity deliverables include reasonable visual originality checks, but they are not legal clearance opinions. You are solely responsible for performing — or commissioning a trademark attorney to perform — full clearance searches in every jurisdiction and trademark class where you intend to use the mark, before adopting it or filing applications.

Stock content, fonts, and third-party licenses

When a deliverable incorporates fonts, stock imagery, plugins, code libraries, or other third-party assets, those assets remain subject to their original licenses. We will disclose the assets used; you are responsible for procuring and maintaining the appropriate license for your usage scope.

Web builds and security

Landing-page and small site builds are delivered on standard hosting stacks with reasonable security defaults. We are not a managed-security provider. For any application that processes payments, personal data, regulated information (health, finance, minors), or operates at scale, you must engage appropriate security review, penetration testing, and ongoing monitoring beyond the deliverable scope.

Vendor and contractor references

Where a deliverable references developers, freelancers, agencies, printers, or other vendors, those references are informational. We do not vet, license, supervise, or warrant the work of any third party. You are solely responsible for hiring, contracting, supervising, and paying any vendor.

Cost and timeline estimates

Cost ranges and timeline estimates included in deliverables are best-effort guidance for budgeting. Actual costs and timelines vary widely by market, vendor, scope evolution, and your team's capacity. Do not commit funds, hires, or external deadlines based on our ranges without obtaining firm quotes.

Remote-only engagement

Unless your package explicitly includes on-site work, all engagements are conducted remotely from the materials and access you provide. Accuracy of our deliverable depends on the accuracy and completeness of your inputs. We are not liable for outcomes traceable to incomplete or misleading inputs.

Your responsibilities

Acknowledgement

By purchasing a deliverable, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this disclaimer, and that Advantage Design & Consulting and Advantage Design & Consulting Inc are not responsible for outcomes of decisions made by you or third parties using our work.
