Terms of Service

1. About these terms

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Parallel 41 website at parallel41.ai and any consulting services provided by Parallel 41 LLC ("Parallel 41," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing this website or engaging our services, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use this website or engage our services.

2. Services

Parallel 41 provides AI consulting services including workflow design and implementation, AI security audits, and search engine optimization for small businesses. The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees for any engagement are defined in a separate written agreement or statement of work provided to the client prior to the start of work.

We reserve the right to decline any engagement at our discretion. Nothing on this website constitutes an offer to provide services; it is an invitation to inquire.

3. Website use

The content on this website is provided for informational purposes only. You may use this website for lawful purposes and in a manner consistent with these terms. You may not:

• Use this website in any way that could damage, disable, or impair it
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of this website or its underlying systems
• Use automated tools to scrape or copy content from this website without permission
• Use this website to transmit spam, malware, or other harmful content

4. Intellectual property

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, and code — is the property of Parallel 41 or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from this content without our prior written permission.

With respect to client engagements: unless otherwise specified in a written agreement, work product created by Parallel 41 for a client becomes the client's property upon receipt of full payment. Parallel 41 retains ownership of pre-existing tools, frameworks, and methodologies used in the delivery of services.

5. Confidentiality

In the course of an engagement, each party may share information that is confidential in nature. Both parties agree to treat such information as confidential, use it only for the purposes of the engagement, and not disclose it to third parties without prior written consent. This obligation survives the end of any engagement. Specific confidentiality terms for an engagement may be further defined in a separate agreement.

6. AI services disclaimer

AI systems and workflows involve inherent uncertainty. While Parallel 41 follows industry security frameworks and best practices — including the OWASP ASI Top 10 and NIST AI Risk Management Framework — we cannot guarantee that any AI system will be free from errors, security vulnerabilities, or unexpected behavior in all circumstances.

Clients are responsible for reviewing and approving AI systems before deploying them in production, maintaining appropriate human oversight of AI-assisted decisions, and complying with any applicable laws and regulations governing AI use in their industry.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Parallel 41 shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this website or our services, including but not limited to loss of revenue, loss of data, or business interruption.

Our total liability for any claim arising out of or related to an engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client for the specific engagement giving rise to the claim in the three months preceding the claim.

8. Warranties

This website and its content are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Parallel 41 makes no warranty that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. Information on this website is provided for general informational purposes and should not be relied upon as professional legal, financial, or technical advice for your specific situation.

9. Payment

Payment terms for consulting engagements are specified in the applicable statement of work or agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are due within 30 days of issuance. Parallel 41 reserves the right to suspend work on an engagement if invoices become more than 15 days past due.

10. Termination

Either party may terminate a consulting engagement by providing written notice as specified in the applicable agreement. Upon termination, the client is responsible for fees for work completed through the termination date. Sections covering intellectual property, confidentiality, limitation of liability, and governing law survive termination.

11. Governing law

These terms and any disputes arising from them are governed by the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any legal action arising from these terms shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Utah.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of this website or our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
