Service Disclaimers and Limitations

Please read these disclaimers carefully as they limit our liability:

No Guarantees of Results

We provide recommendations and consultation services focused on zero-based budgeting methodologies, but we cannot and do not guarantee specific financial outcomes. Results vary significantly based on individual circumstances, commitment to implementation, financial situation, and factors beyond our control. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by Australian law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our website or services, including but not limited to financial losses, implementation difficulties, or outcomes different from anticipated. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for consultation services.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless taronelios.com, its operators, employees, and consultants from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses including legal fees arising from your use of services, violation of these terms, or infringement of any rights of others.

Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

We are committed to resolving any disputes fairly and efficiently:

Arbitration

Any disputes arising from these terms or use of our services shall first be addressed through good faith negotiation. If negotiation is unsuccessful, disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with Australian arbitration laws rather than through court litigation.

Arbitration is conducted by a neutral arbitrator and provides a streamlined alternative to traditional court proceedings while maintaining fairness for both parties.

Online Dispute Resolution Platform

For certain consumer disputes, you may have access to online dispute resolution platforms provided by Australian consumer protection authorities. We will cooperate with such processes when applicable and required by law.
