Terms of Use

These Terms of Use govern your use of the website at ianbensley.com (the "Website"), operated by Ian Bensley ("I", "me", "my"). By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website. These terms cover the Website itself; the terms of any consulting engagement are set out separately in a proposal or agreement for that specific work.

1. About the Website

The Website provides information about my AI, automation and marketing consulting services, along with articles and tools such as the manual-work calculator. It is provided for general information only and does not constitute professional, legal, financial or technical advice on which you should rely without a specific engagement.

2. No guarantee of results

Any figures, estimates or examples on the Website - including the output of the manual-work calculator and any case-study results - are illustrative only. They are not a promise or guarantee of any particular outcome, saving or return, which will always depend on your specific circumstances.

3. Intellectual property

The content, design, text, graphics and code of the Website are owned by me or my licensors and are protected by law. You may view and share the content for your own personal or internal business use, but you may not copy, republish or exploit it commercially without my prior written permission. When you engage me, the deliverables I build for you are yours as set out in our engagement agreement.

4. Enquiries and submissions

When you submit information through the Website, you agree it is accurate and that you are entitled to provide it. Information you submit is handled in accordance with my Privacy Policy. Please do not submit confidential or sensitive information through a web form; share it only once we have agreed how it will be handled.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Website unlawfully, to attempt to gain unauthorised access to it or any connected system, to introduce malicious code, or to interfere with its operation or availability.

6. Third-party links

The Website may link to third-party websites and tools. I provide these for convenience and am not responsible for their content, availability or practices.

7. Disclaimer and liability

The Website is provided "as is" and "as available". To the maximum extent permitted by law, I make no warranties about its accuracy, completeness or availability, and I am not liable for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Website. Nothing in these terms excludes any rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.

8. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of its courts.

9. Changes

I may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be posted on this page, and continued use of the Website means you accept the updated terms.
