03. Accuracy, Completeness, and Timeliness of Information

We are not responsible if information made available on this site is not accurate, complete, or current. Material on this site is provided for general information only and should not be relied upon or used as the sole basis for making decisions without consulting primary, more accurate, more complete, or more timely sources of information. Any reliance on the material on this site is at your own risk.

This site may contain certain historical information. Historical information, necessarily, is not current and is provided for reference only. We reserve the right to modify the contents of this site at any time, but have no obligation to update any information on the site.

04. Modifications to Services

Pricing for our services is subject to change without notice. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue any service, or any part or content thereof, without notice at any time. We shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of a service.

05. Professional Scope & Client Relationship Disclaimer

Unless Sauda Welch has been specifically engaged and contracted to provide services in her capacity as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC-S), all services delivered through this website, including but not limited to consulting, training, facilitation, workshops, strategy calls, and organizational programs, are provided in the capacity of a consultant and training facilitator only.

In this capacity, Sauda Welch does not diagnose, treat, or provide any service that falls within the scope of practice of a licensed mental health therapist. Nothing communicated through this website, in written materials, during calls, workshops, or consulting engagements constitutes therapy, counseling, clinical treatment, or mental health services of any kind.

No therapist-client relationship, and no clinical relationship of any kind, is formed through your use of this website or through any consulting, training, or partnership engagement.

All partnership, consulting, and training engagements are governed exclusively by the terms of the specific written agreement signed by both parties for that engagement. These engagements are not covered by, and are not protected under, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), as no clinical or therapeutic relationship exists.

A clinical relationship, and any protections or obligations associated with one, exists only where a separate, formal written agreement explicitly engages Sauda Welch in the capacity of a Licensed Clinician for a defined scope of clinical work. Absent such a signed agreement, no clinical relationship should be assumed, implied, or relied upon under any circumstance.

06. Services Provided

Services offered through this site may include, without limitation, organizational consulting, training and facilitation, workshops, strategy calls, collaboration calls, and partnership engagements. The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and terms of any engagement are governed by the individual signed agreement for that engagement, not by this page.

We reserve the right, but are not obligated, to limit the availability of any service to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction. We may exercise this right on a case-by-case basis. All descriptions of services are subject to change at any time without notice, at our sole discretion.

We do not warrant that any service, information, or other material obtained through this site will meet your expectations, or that any errors in the site will be corrected.

07. Payment for Services

Payment terms, deposits, cancellation policies, and rescheduling terms for any consulting, training, or partnership engagement are defined in the signed agreement for that specific engagement and are not governed by this page.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate account and payment information for any paid engagement, and to promptly update that information as needed so that we can complete transactions and contact you as necessary.

08. Optional Tools

We may provide you with access to third-party tools over which we neither monitor nor have any control nor input. You acknowledge and agree that we provide access to such tools "as is" and "as available," without any warranties, representations, or conditions of any kind and without any endorsement. We shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to your use of optional third-party tools.

Any use by you of optional tools offered through the site is entirely at your own risk and discretion, and you should ensure that you are familiar with and approve of the terms on which such tools are provided by the relevant third-party provider(s).

09. Third-Party Links

Certain content available via this site may include materials from third parties, or may direct you to third-party websites that are not affiliated with us. We are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of any third-party materials or websites, and we do not warrant and will not have any liability or responsibility for them.

We are not liable for any harm or damages related to the purchase or use of goods, services, resources, content, or any other transactions made in connection with any third-party websites. Please review third-party policies and practices carefully before you engage in any transaction with them.

16. Severability

In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed severed from these Terms of Service. Such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.

17. Termination

The obligations and liabilities of the parties incurred prior to the termination date shall survive the termination of this agreement for all purposes. These Terms of Service are effective unless and until terminated by either you or us. You may terminate these Terms of Service at any time by discontinuing your use of this site.
