Version 3.0 · Simplified Final Last Updated: August 28, 2026 KYC Strategies, LLC · Cumming, Georgia 30040 info@kycstrategies.com
01

Agreement and Order Confirmation

These Terms apply to services provided by KYC Strategies, LLC ("KYC Strategies," "we," "us," or "our") to the client identified in an Order Confirmation ("Client," "you," or "your"). By signing, electronically accepting, or paying an invoice tied to an Order Confirmation, Client accepts these Terms and represents that the person accepting them has authority to bind Client.

The Order Confirmation states the services, pricing, term, quantities, qualification criteria, and any special rules for the engagement. If it is more specific than these Terms or conflicts with them, the Order Confirmation controls.

The version of these Terms identified in, linked from, or in effect when the Order Confirmation is accepted governs that engagement. Later versions do not retroactively change a fixed-term engagement unless both parties agree in writing.

02

Services and Client Cooperation

KYC Strategies will provide the services described in the Order Confirmation, which may include cold calling and appointment setting, training, SEO, website design and development, paid advertising, social or search support, lead tracking, research, consulting, reporting, and access to KYC OS. Unless the Order Confirmation says otherwise, the engagement is non-exclusive and KYC Strategies may work with other companies, including companies in the same or similar market, while protecting Client's Confidential Information.

Client will provide reasonably accurate information, target criteria, lists, materials, access, credentials, approvals, and feedback needed for the work; will maintain any internal suppression or do-not-contact information KYC Strategies should use; and will ensure it has the right to provide the data, claims, content, and materials it gives KYC Strategies.

Client-caused delays do not make KYC Strategies responsible for missed timelines and do not pause committed recurring fees or minimum terms unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.

03

Cold Calling and Pay-Per-Meeting

3.1 Scope and campaign intelligence

Calling Hours, contact volumes, setup fees, package pricing, consulting time, and other deliverables are stated in the Order Confirmation. For KYC-operated cold-calling campaigns, campaign intelligence and a performance readout are included at least once per month when there has been enough campaign activity to produce a meaningful readout. KYC Strategies may provide additional readouts without creating a continuing obligation to do so more often.

3.2 Pay-per-meeting model

Unless the Order Confirmation says otherwise, pay-per-meeting is a single 90-day performance engagement, requires a completed paid Pilot in the same or a substantially similar market, and is offered at KYC Strategies’ discretion. A meeting is billable only if it is held and satisfies the Qualified Meeting criteria in the Order Confirmation, or becomes billable under the ten-Business-Day rule below. A no-show, cancellation, or timely Held Unqualified meeting is not billable.

3.3 Ten-Business-Day meeting update rule

Client must record a final outcome for each scheduled meeting in KYC OS or another method designated by KYC Strategies within ten (10) Business Days after the meeting date. If the meeting is still left open after that deadline, it is automatically deemed Held Qualified on the next Business Day and is billable. This rule is an administrative consequence of Client’s failure to update the meeting on time and is intended to keep performance billing current.

A meeting that becomes deemed Held Qualified cannot later be changed to Held Unqualified because Client evaluated it late or changed its view of qualification. KYC Strategies will correct objective administrative errors shown by its own records, such as a meeting that did not occur, a duplicate charge, the wrong rate, or the wrong client. If KYC OS is unavailable and KYC Strategies has not provided any reasonable alternate way to submit the outcome, the deadline is extended for the period no reasonable submission method was available. A meeting rescheduled to a specific future date receives a new ten-Business-Day window from the new meeting date.

3.4 Performance target

References to approximately one Qualified Meeting per two Calling Hours are performance targets, not guaranteed outcomes. If a KYC-operated campaign has at least ten (10) Calling Hours of meaningful data and is performing below that target, KYC Strategies will use commercially reasonable efforts to re-optimize items such as targeting, list quality, messaging, qualification, objections, or dialer settings while the engagement remains active. This is a process commitment, not a guarantee of any specific number of meetings or revenue.

3.5 Data and enrichment

Data and enrichment may be billed separately at the price stated in the Order Confirmation. The agreed price is a service price and is not a dollar-for-dollar pass-through of KYC Strategies' underlying vendor or data-acquisition costs. KYC Strategies is not required to provide vendor invoices or reconcile the charge to individual vendor costs.

After full payment, Client is entitled to the enriched campaign contact list and the mobile numbers and/or email addresses acquired for those contacts, subject to binding third-party license restrictions.

04

Revenue-Share Engagements

Revenue share applies only when the Order Confirmation expressly selects that model. Unless the Order Confirmation states different economics, the default is a $2,000 monthly data/tooling fee plus 10% of Initial TCV. The initial term is 90 days unless the Order Confirmation says otherwise; any Calling-Hour minimum or continuation terms are stated in the Order Confirmation.

"Initial TCV" means the total amount contractually committed in the first binding sale between Client and the applicable prospect at the time that first sale closes, including committed implementation and recurring fees for the initial term. It excludes taxes, optional renewals, later renewals, extensions, upsells, cross-sells, add-ons, expansions, later projects, uncommitted usage, and later purchases. KYC Strategies is paid revenue share only on that first sale, once.

For cold-calling revenue share, an opportunity qualifies only when KYC Strategies booked the meeting under that revenue-share engagement and the prospect actually attended. Merely identifying, enriching, listing, or calling a prospect is not enough. SEO, paid media, social activity, attribution, or other marketing work does not create cold-calling revenue share unless the applicable Order Confirmation expressly creates a separate revenue-share arrangement for those services.

If the engagement ends before the first sale closes, the revenue-share obligation continues for six (6) months only for a prospect whose qualifying meeting was booked by KYC Strategies during the active engagement and who actually attended that meeting. If the first sale does not close within that six-month period, no revenue share is due. Client will notify KYC Strategies within five (5) Business Days after a qualifying first sale closes and, on reasonable request, provide documentation sufficient to verify the closing date and Initial TCV.

05

Digital Marketing and Website Services

5.1 SEO and search visibility

SEO services may include technical, on-page, local, content, link-related, AI/generative-search, social-search, or other search-visibility work stated in the Order Confirmation. Search engines, directories, and other discovery platforms control crawling, indexing, rankings, search features, and algorithms, so KYC Strategies does not guarantee any ranking, placement, traffic level, lead volume, or continued visibility. KYC Strategies may make reasonable optimization changes within the approved scope. Client or third-party changes to the website, listings, content, hosting, redirects, tracking, or connected accounts may affect results, and KYC Strategies is not responsible for effects caused by changes outside its control.

5.3 Website design and development

The Order Confirmation will state the website scope, pages, features, integrations, revision limits, content responsibilities, timeline, and any hosting, maintenance, or support included. Client delays in providing content, access, approvals, or decisions extend affected deadlines. Client represents that it has the right to use all text, images, logos, data, and other materials it supplies. After full payment, ownership of custom final website deliverables is governed by the Ownership section below; KYC Strategies and third parties keep their existing or reusable materials, software, templates, tools, and licensed components. Third-party themes, plugins, fonts, APIs, hosting, registrars, and similar services remain subject to their own licenses, fees, availability, and terms.

Client approval to launch, or Client's commercial use of the completed website, constitutes acceptance of the completed scope except for a defect that materially fails the agreed scope and is reported in writing within ten (10) Business Days after launch or handoff. Unless the Order Confirmation includes ongoing hosting, maintenance, security, backup, or support services, KYC Strategies has no continuing obligation after launch or handoff to maintain, update, monitor, back up, secure, or ensure future compatibility of the website, and is not responsible for later changes made by Client or third parties.

06

Fees, Payment, Term and Cancellation

Invoices are due within seven (7) calendar days unless the Order Confirmation states otherwise. Pay-per-meeting invoices are issued on the first (1st) of the month for meetings that became billable during the prior calendar month. Recurring, setup, data, tooling, training, SEO, marketing, and other fees are invoiced on the cadence stated in the Order Confirmation.

Client authorizes KYC Strategies to charge any payment method Client places on file for amounts due under an Order Confirmation, including recurring fees and past-due balances, on or after the applicable due date unless the Order Confirmation states otherwise.

Late balances accrue a charge of 3% per month or the maximum lawful rate, whichever is lower. KYC Strategies may suspend work or Portal access for overdue amounts after written notice. Client remains responsible for taxes imposed on the transaction other than taxes on KYC Strategies’ net income.

Before initiating a chargeback for a good-faith billing dispute, Client will notify KYC Strategies in writing and allow ten (10) Business Days to review and correct any billing error, except where prohibited by applicable law or card-network rules.

The engagement lasts for the term in the Order Confirmation. A month-to-month engagement may be ended by either party on 30 days’ written notice unless the Order Confirmation says otherwise. A fixed or minimum term may not be ended early for convenience unless the Order Confirmation allows it; if Client ends it early without KYC Strategies’ uncured material breach, the remaining committed fees remain due.

Either party may terminate for a material breach that is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after written notice. KYC Strategies may suspend or terminate immediately where reasonably necessary for non-payment, fraud, unlawful activity, misuse of KYC systems or intellectual property, a serious security issue, or material legal, platform, carrier, data, or reputational risk. Ending an engagement does not eliminate amounts already earned, committed fees, or a valid revenue-share tail.

07

Ownership, Recordings and KYC OS

7.1 Client deliverables

After full payment, Client owns the final client-specific deliverables KYC Strategies creates and delivers for Client, including approved talk tracks, qualification frameworks, client-specific reports, custom website designs, page content and client-specific code created for the project, training deliverables identified in the Order Confirmation, and the enriched contact list described in Section 3.5, in each case subject to KYC Strategies and third-party rights described below.

7.2 KYC Strategies property

KYC Strategies keeps ownership of its pre-existing and reusable methods, frameworks, templates, code libraries and components, software, KYC OS, source code, workflows, automations, systems, internal processes, third-party tools, vendor relationships, vendor pricing, and internal know-how. Unless an Order Confirmation expressly says otherwise, KYC Strategies also keeps ownership and control of raw call recordings, transcripts, raw conversation data, internal notes and dispositions, call-level summaries, internal classifications, audit logs, and underlying or derived analytical datasets.

7.3 Client materials

Client keeps ownership of materials and data it provides and gives KYC Strategies a limited license to use them as reasonably necessary to provide the services.

7.4 Booked-meeting playback and Portal access

Where a booked-meeting recording exists, KYC Strategies may make streaming playback available in KYC OS for Client’s internal use. This does not create a right to recordings of other calls, transcripts, raw conversation data, or bulk exports. Client may not download, re-record, scrape, or mass-export KYC OS content except through a function KYC Strategies expressly provides or where the Order Confirmation says otherwise.

KYC OS is included during an active engagement as a reporting and coordination tool, not as Client’s permanent CRM or archive. It is provided on an as-available basis and may change over time. KYC Strategies may modify features, but while a time-sensitive contractual action is required, KYC Strategies will maintain either KYC OS functionality or a reasonable alternate method for that action. Portal access ends when the engagement ends. KYC Strategies is not required to provide a general bulk export of internal Portal records or KYC-owned data at termination.

Client will protect its KYC OS credentials and will not interfere with, reverse engineer, probe, scrape, resell, or misuse the Portal. KYC Strategies may suspend access for misuse or security concerns.

08

Confidentiality, Data Use and Compliance

Each party will use commercially reasonable care to protect the other party’s non-public confidential information and will use it only for the relationship. Confidential information does not include information that is public without breach, already lawfully known without restriction, independently developed, or lawfully received from another source. A party may disclose information when legally required.

KYC Strategies may use reputable third-party software, service providers, automation, and AI-assisted tools to provide and improve the services. KYC Strategies may also use de-identified or aggregated service data for benchmarking, analytics, product improvement, and marketing, provided it does not identify Client or an individual prospect in that use. KYC Strategies will use commercially reasonable safeguards for Client information in its systems and will provide security notices when required by applicable law.

Each party is responsible for the legal obligations that apply to its own role. Client is responsible for the legality and accuracy of its products, offers, claims, instructions, target criteria, Client-provided data, and suppression information. KYC Strategies is responsible for the compliance of the calling, recording, advertising, SEO, and data-sourcing execution it controls. KYC Strategies may refuse, pause, or modify activity where it reasonably believes additional compliance steps are required or the risk is not acceptable.

Calls may be recorded or transcribed where KYC Strategies determines it is permitted and appropriate. Nothing requires KYC Strategies to record, transcribe, or retain any particular call. Any non-standard request regarding recording, retention, disclosure, or export must be separately agreed in writing, and KYC Strategies may decline it.

09

Disclaimers, Liability and Indemnity

Sales, marketing, search, advertising, and website results depend on factors outside KYC Strategies' control. Except for an express service obligation in these Terms or an Order Confirmation, KYC Strategies does not guarantee rankings, indexing, traffic, deliverability, connect rates, meeting volume, advertising performance, website uptime, opportunities, revenue, return on investment, or other business outcomes. KYC Strategies is not responsible for Client's attendance, follow-up, pricing, closing performance, fulfillment, licensing, service quality, or other Client-side factors.

KYC Strategies is not responsible for outages, policy or algorithm changes, enforcement actions, carrier filtering, search changes, advertising-platform changes, deliverability changes, hosting or registrar failures, or changes, failures, vulnerabilities, or incompatibilities in third-party themes, plugins, APIs, software, and other providers, except to the extent directly caused by KYC Strategies' gross negligence, willful misconduct, or material breach.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, KYC Strategies’ total aggregate liability arising from an Order Confirmation will not exceed the greater of (a) the fees actually paid to KYC Strategies under that Order Confirmation during the three (3) months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim or (b) $8,500, unless the Order Confirmation expressly states a different cap. Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, loss of data, or business interruption, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Each party will defend and indemnify the other from third-party claims to the extent caused by that party’s violation of law, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or material breach of this Agreement. Client will additionally defend and indemnify KYC Strategies from third-party claims arising from Client’s products or services, Client-provided claims or materials, Client-provided data, or Client instructions that KYC Strategies followed in providing the services.

10

Personnel Non-Solicitation

During an active engagement and for twelve (12) months after it ends, Client will not directly solicit for employment or independent engagement any KYC Strategies employee or contractor who materially performed Services for Client, without KYC Strategies' written consent. This does not prohibit general, non-targeted recruiting or hiring a person who independently approaches Client without solicitation by Client.

11

General

This Agreement is governed by Georgia law. Any court proceeding arising from it must be brought in the state or federal courts located in Forsyth County, Georgia, and each party consents to that venue.

The Order Confirmation and these Terms are the entire agreement for the engagement and replace prior proposals or communications about the same engagement. Material changes must be agreed in writing. A failure to enforce a provision once is not a waiver of it. If one provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.

Neither party is liable for delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, excluding payment obligations. The parties are independent contractors and nothing creates a partnership, joint venture, franchise, fiduciary relationship, or employment relationship between them.

Notices under these Terms may be sent by email to the business contact addresses used for the engagement. Sections relating to payment, revenue share, ownership, confidentiality, liability, indemnity, and governing law survive to the extent needed after the engagement ends.
