This Agreement serves as the master contract for all high-level
consulting and agency services provided by Starr Enterprise.
2. FEES, BILLING, AND PAYMENT TERMS
One-Time Services: Fees are due in full prior to
the commencement of work (e.g., before LLC filing or website build
begins).
Recurring Services: Monthly retainer fees are
automatically drafted on the designated day of each month. Client
authorizes Starr Enterprise to maintain a credit card or bank
account on file for these recurring charges.
Late Payments: Invoices unpaid after 10 days are
subject to a late fee of $100/10%. Starr Enterprise reserves the
right to pause all Services immediately until the account is
current.
Refunds: Due to the custom nature of the Services
(including filing fees, strategic labor, and intellectual property
transfer), all fees paid are non-refundable once the onboarding
process has commenced.
3. TERM AND TERMINATION
Startup/One-Time: May be terminated by Client prior
to work commencing. Once filing/design work begins, the full fee is
owed.
Recurring Retainers: Client may cancel recurring
services (Marketing, Executive Access) with 30 days' written notice.
Billing will cease after the final 30-day period.
4. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Client agrees to provide Starr Enterprise with timely access to
necessary information, account credentials, and approvals required
to perform the Services. Starr Enterprise is not responsible for
delays caused by Client's failure to provide such materials.
5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Client IP: Client retains all rights to their
pre-existing logos, trademarks, and data.
Deliverables: Upon full payment, Client owns the
final deliverables created specifically for them (e.g., the final
Website files, the LLC documents).
Provider IP: Starr Enterprise retains ownership of
its proprietary methodologies, frameworks, templates, and
pre-existing code used to create the Deliverables.
6. CONFIDENTIALITY
Each Party agrees to keep confidential all non-public information
obtained from the other Party. This includes financial data,
customer lists, and strategic plans. (Note: Executive Access clients
are covered by an additional, specific NDA).
7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
In no event shall Starr Enterprise be liable for any indirect,
special, incidental, or consequential damages. Starr Enterprise's
total liability under this Agreement shall not exceed the total fees
paid by Client during the three (3) months preceding the claim.
8. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Georgia. Any disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration
in Atlanta, Georgia.
