Welcome to BiziBee, your trusted business consulting partner in Australia. These Terms of Service govern your use of our consulting services, including free strategy calls, paid consulting packages, systems audits, automation setup, and monthly operations support. By engaging with BiziBee's services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these terms. These terms are designed to protect both parties and ensure a professional, transparent relationship throughout our engagement. Please read them carefully before proceeding with any service.

BiziBee reserves the right to suspend or terminate services if payment is not received by the due date. Late payments may incur additional administrative fees as permitted under Australian law. All fees are quoted in Australian Dollars (AUD) unless otherwise specified.

Results and Outcomes Disclaimer
Whilst BiziBee is committed to providing high-quality, professional consulting services based on industry best practices and extensive experience, it is essential to understand that business results cannot be guaranteed. The success of any business strategy, system implementation, or operational improvement depends on multiple factors including but not limited to: market conditions, client implementation, business resources, industry dynamics, competitive landscape, and economic circumstances.
All advice, recommendations, and strategies provided by BiziBee are educational in nature and intended to inform your business decision-making process. Our services are designed to provide you with insights, frameworks, and systems to support your business operations. However, the ultimate responsibility for implementing recommendations and making business decisions rests solely with you as the business owner.
BiziBee's consulting services do not constitute financial advice, legal advice, accounting advice, or any other form of professional advice requiring specific licensing under Australian law. You are strongly encouraged to seek independent professional advice from appropriately qualified advisers (such as accountants, solicitors, or financial planners) before making significant business decisions based on our recommendations.
Client Responsibilities and Obligations
Accurate Information Provision
You agree to provide BiziBee with complete, accurate, and timely information about your business operations, challenges, and objectives. The quality and relevance of our consulting advice depends significantly on the accuracy of the information you provide.
Independent Decision-Making
You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for all business decisions made during and after our engagement. BiziBee provides recommendations and guidance, but the decision to implement, modify, or reject any advice remains entirely yours.
Implementation Responsibility
Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in your service package, you are responsible for implementing recommended strategies, systems, and processes within your business. BiziBee can provide guidance and support, but execution remains your responsibility.
Professional Conduct
You agree to maintain professional and respectful communication with BiziBee staff and contractors. We reserve the right to terminate services if behaviour becomes abusive, threatening, or unreasonably demanding.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Australian law, BiziBee, its directors, employees, contractors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from or related to the use of our consulting services. This includes but is not limited to loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunities, loss of data, or any other commercial or economic losses.
BiziBee is not responsible for business outcomes, financial results, or any losses incurred as a result of implementing or failing to implement our recommendations. You acknowledge that business consulting inherently involves risk and that outcomes depend on numerous factors beyond our control.
Our total aggregate liability to you for any claims arising from our services shall not exceed the total fees you have actually paid to BiziBee for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
Intellectual Property Rights
All intellectual property created, developed, or provided by BiziBee during our engagement—including but not limited to standard operating procedures (SOPs), templates, frameworks, methodologies, documentation, reports, analysis, recommendations, and any other deliverables—remains the exclusive property of BiziBee until all fees for the relevant services have been paid in full.
Upon receipt of full payment for services, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the deliverables provided specifically for your internal business operations. This licence does not permit you to resell, redistribute, sublicense, or otherwise commercially exploit any BiziBee intellectual property without express written permission.
Any pre-existing intellectual property, proprietary methodologies, or frameworks that BiziBee brings to the engagement remains BiziBee's exclusive property regardless of payment status. You acknowledge that BiziBee may use general knowledge, skills, experience, and ideas gained during our engagement with you in connection with other client work, provided this does not involve disclosure of your confidential information.
Customised Deliverables
Materials specifically created for your business become your property upon full payment
BiziBee Frameworks
Proprietary methodologies and systems remain BiziBee's intellectual property with usage rights granted
Third-Party Tools
Software or platforms recommended remain subject to their respective licensing terms
Confidentiality and Data Protection
Our Commitment to Confidentiality
BiziBee recognises the sensitive nature of business information shared during consulting engagements. We commit to maintaining the confidentiality of all proprietary business information, financial data, strategic plans, and other confidential materials you disclose to us during our engagement.
We will not disclose your confidential information to third parties without your express written consent, except where required by law or to our professional advisers bound by confidentiality obligations. All BiziBee staff and contractors are required to maintain strict confidentiality standards.
Confidential information does not include information that is publicly available, independently developed by BiziBee, or lawfully obtained from other sources without confidentiality restrictions.
This confidentiality obligation survives the termination of our engagement and continues indefinitely unless the information becomes publicly available through no fault of BiziBee.
Termination and Service Discontinuation
By Client
You may terminate services with written notice. Fees for services already provided remain payable and are non-refundable
By BiziBee
We may terminate services for non-payment, breach of terms, or if continuing the relationship becomes impractical
Post-Termination
Upon termination, confidentiality obligations continue, outstanding fees become immediately due, and licensed materials must cease to be used if unpaid
For monthly support arrangements, either party may terminate the ongoing service relationship with 30 days' written notice. You remain responsible for payment of the current billing cycle. Upon termination, we will provide a reasonable transition period to ensure business continuity, though this does not extend beyond the current paid period.
If services are terminated by BiziBee due to client breach of these terms (such as non-payment or inappropriate conduct), no refunds will be provided and all outstanding amounts become immediately due and payable. In the event of termination, any intellectual property deliverables not yet fully paid for must be returned or destroyed, and your licence to use BiziBee materials is immediately revoked.
Termination does not affect any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the termination date, including payment obligations, confidentiality commitments, and intellectual property rights.
General Terms and Australian Law Compliance
These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and BiziBee regarding our consulting services and supersede all prior discussions, representations, or agreements. Any modifications to these terms must be made in writing and signed by both parties. If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
These terms are governed by the laws of Australia and the state or territory in which BiziBee operates. Any disputes arising from or related to these terms or our services shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia.

Updates to Terms
BiziBee reserves the right to update these terms periodically. Material changes will be communicated to active clients.
Severability
If any provision is found invalid, remaining terms continue to apply in full force.
No Waiver
Failure to enforce any term does not constitute waiver of that term or any other provision.
