Agreement to these terms

By accessing the Site, submitting a form, booking a consultation, or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site or our services.

Website use

You may use the Site for lawful business purposes only. You agree not to:

• Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or regulation.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, related systems, or data.
• Interfere with or disrupt the Site, servers, or networks.
• Scrape, harvest, or copy Site content for commercial reuse without our prior written consent, except as allowed by ordinary browser or search-engine use.
• Submit false, misleading, or infringing information through forms, chat, email, phone, or text.

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice.

No professional advice from the Site alone

Content on the Site—including articles, webinars, assessments, examples, and educational materials—is for general information only. It is not legal, accounting, tax, medical, or other professional advice, and it is not a substitute for advice tailored to your business. Results described on the Site are not promises of similar results for you.

Inquiries, consultations, and proposals

Submitting a form, phone call, chat, text message, or booking request does not create a client relationship. A client relationship begins only when both parties accept a proposal, statement of work, order form, or other written agreement that describes scope, fees, and terms.

Free consultations and assessments are informational. They do not obligate either party to proceed with paid work.

Services and deliverables

When you engage Ringneck Marketing for paid services, the applicable proposal or written agreement controls scope, timeline, fees, and deliverables. If there is a conflict between these Terms and a signed agreement, the signed agreement controls for that engagement.

Unless a signed agreement states otherwise:

• You will provide timely access, feedback, approvals, credentials (where needed), and accurate business information required for the work.
• You remain responsible for your products, services, pricing, claims, compliance, and customer relationships.
• Timelines are estimates and may change if scope changes or required inputs are delayed.
• We may use subcontractors, freelancers, software platforms, and AI-assisted tools to perform services, while remaining responsible for the work we deliver under the engagement.

No results guarantees

Marketing and advertising involve variables outside our control, including market conditions, competition, platform policies, budgets, offer quality, sales process, capacity, and customer behavior. Unless a signed agreement expressly guarantees a specific metric, we do not guarantee leads, appointments, rankings, revenue, return on ad spend, or other business outcomes.

Fees and payment

Fees, billing schedules, and payment methods are set in the applicable proposal or invoice. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are due as stated on the invoice, and late amounts may pause work until brought current. Paid fees are non-refundable except as required by law or as expressly stated in a signed agreement.

Intellectual property

The Site, including its design, text, graphics, logos, videos, and software, is owned by Ringneck Marketing or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from Site materials without our prior written permission, except for temporary copies made automatically by your browser.

For client engagements, ownership of deliverables is governed by the signed agreement. Unless that agreement says otherwise, Ringneck Marketing retains ownership of its pre-existing tools, frameworks, templates, processes, software configurations, and generic methodologies, and grants you a non-exclusive license to use final deliverables created specifically for you in connection with your business. You retain ownership of materials you provide to us. You grant us a limited license to use those materials as needed to perform the services and, unless you opt out in writing, to reference your business name and non-confidential results in our portfolio and case studies.

Third-party platforms and links

Our work and the Site may rely on third-party platforms (for example advertising networks, analytics tools, scheduling software, CRMs, messaging providers, and hosting services). Those platforms have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party outages, policy changes, account suspensions, or features outside our control. Links on the Site to third-party websites are provided for convenience only.

Privacy

Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Site or providing contact information, you acknowledge that policy.

Text and other communications

If you provide a phone number or email address, Ringneck Marketing (operated by Koncept Genesis LLC) may contact you about your inquiry, appointments, and services using those channels, including automated tools where permitted by law. SMS/text messaging is optional: forms that offer text messages use a separate, unchecked consent checkbox and are not a condition of submitting the form or using our services. When you opt in, message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel, HELP for help. Mobile information will not be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. See our Privacy Policy for more detail on mobile numbers and messaging.

Disclaimers

THE SITE AND, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN A SIGNED AGREEMENT, OUR SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KONCEPT GENESIS LLC, RINGNECK MARKETING, AND THEIR OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, AND CONTRACTORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) OR (B) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE THREE (3) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM. LIABILITY FOR PAID CLIENT ENGAGEMENTS MAY BE FURTHER LIMITED BY THE SIGNED AGREEMENT FOR THAT ENGAGEMENT.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Koncept Genesis LLC, Ringneck Marketing, and their owners, employees, and contractors from and against claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your misuse of the Site, your content or business claims, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate access to the Site or refuse service if you violate these Terms or use the Site in a way that creates legal or operational risk. Provisions that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnification) will survive termination.

Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Dakota, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that exclusive venue for any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site is the state or federal courts located in South Dakota, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. Client engagement agreements may specify different dispute-resolution procedures for that engagement.

Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The effective date above shows when they were last revised. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. For active paid engagements, material changes to service terms will be handled under the applicable agreement.

General

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any signed client agreement, are the entire agreement between you and Ringneck Marketing regarding the Site and, where applicable, general service terms not covered by a signed agreement. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
