General Terms and Conditions
At Accelerati, we like to keep things simple and clear. We provide Salesforce consulting and support through project-based or retainer engagements, with the details set out in a Statement of Work. You own anything we create specifically for you once it's fully paid for, and we retain our own tools and methods. We keep all confidential information private, and we may record meetings for internal use unless you ask otherwise. We always prioritise using Salesforce-native solutions and may liaise with Salesforce on your behalf. Our liability is capped at the fees you've paid in the past six months, and we're not responsible for indirect losses. We both agree not to poach each other’s staff or damage each other’s reputation. If disputes arise, we’ll try to resolve them fairly, with mediation or arbitration in Brisbane if needed. These terms follow Queensland law, and we may update them from time to time — continued use of our services means you accept any updates.
