Terms of Use

DEANNA NGUEKET CPA LLC
Last Updated: August 31, 2026

1. Acceptance and Scope

1.1 Acceptance. These Terms of Use govern access to and use of dngueketcpa.com and any related pages we operate (the “Site”). The Site is operated by Deanna Ngueket CPA LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Firm,” “we,” or “us”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

1.2 What the Site is. The Site describes the Firm’s tax, accounting, and advisory services and publishes general information. It is an information and marketing channel. Services are not delivered through the Site.

1.3 Eligibility. The Site is intended for users who are at least 18 years old. If you use the Site on behalf of a business, you represent that you are authorized to act for it.

1.4 Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms at any time. The version posted on the Site is the version in effect, and the Last Updated date shows when it last changed. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the change.

2. No Client Relationship

2.1 The Site does not create an engagement. Using the Site, submitting the contact form, booking a call, or emailing or telephoning the Firm does not create a client relationship. A client relationship begins only when the Firm and the client sign a written engagement agreement, and only for the services described in it.

2.2 Introductory consultation. Any complimentary consultation, including the introductory session offered on the Site, is a preliminary conversation about whether the Firm and you are a fit. It creates no client relationship, and nothing said in it should be relied on as tax, accounting, or legal advice.

2.3 Do not send sensitive information first. Do not send tax returns, financial records, Social Security or other government identification numbers, or similar sensitive information through the contact form or by unsecured email before an engagement agreement is signed and you have been given access to the Firm’s secure client portal. We cannot protect information sent outside those channels and cannot treat it as confidential.

3. Information Published on the Site

3.1 No tax or accounting advice. Articles, resources, and other content on the Site are general information. They are not tax, accounting, or financial advice, they are not written for your circumstances, and they should not be relied on for any filing, election, or transaction. Tax law changes, and content may become out of date without notice.

3.2 No legal advice. The Firm does not practice law and does not give legal advice. Choosing between a limited liability company, a corporation, or another structure carries legal consequences beyond tax treatment, including liability, ownership, and governance. You should consult a licensed attorney before deciding.

3.3 Business formation services. Where the Firm prepares or submits formation or registration documents, it does so at your direction and on the information you supply, as an administrative service. The Firm does not choose your structure for you as a matter of law, and it represents you before a taxing authority only under a signed engagement and any authorization form that authority requires.

3.4 No promised outcome. Nothing on the Site is a promise of a particular refund, tax saving, audit result, or outcome with any taxing authority. Results depend on facts and on authorities we do not control.

4. Services, Term, and Billing

4.1 The engagement agreement governs. Scope, fees, term, billing, and cancellation are governed by the signed engagement agreement and any statement of services referenced in it. Where these Terms and that agreement differ on a point about services or fees, the engagement agreement controls.

4.2 Term, automatic renewal, and how to cancel. Services are sold for a minimum term stated in the engagement agreement and are billed on a recurring monthly or quarterly cycle. Unless the engagement agreement provides otherwise, the term renews automatically for a further period of the same length unless you cancel at or before the end of the then-current term. To cancel, send written notice to info@dngueketcpa.com or through the client portal before the current term ends. The engagement agreement states the fees, the billing cycle, and any notice period that applies to cancellation.

5. Electronic Communications

5.1 Electronic records and signatures. You agree that the Firm may deliver agreements, notices, disclosures, invoices, and other records electronically, by email or through the client portal, and that electronic signatures on those records have the same effect as handwritten signatures. You may withdraw this consent as to future records by writing to info@dngueketcpa.com, although some services cannot be provided without it.

5.2 Calls, email, and text messages. If you give us your telephone number, you agree that we may contact you by call or text message about your inquiry or your engagement. Message and data rates may apply. Marketing calls and texts are sent only to those who separately ask to receive them, and declining them does not affect your services. Reply STOP to stop text messages and use the unsubscribe link to stop marketing email. We will continue to send messages necessary to service an active engagement.

6. Confidentiality and Privilege

6.1 Confidentiality. The Firm treats client information as confidential and handles it as described in the Privacy Policy.

6.2 Limits of privilege. Accountant-client confidentiality under Texas law is not the same as attorney-client privilege. Communications with the Firm may be subject to disclosure in litigation and in federal proceedings, including criminal tax matters. Where privilege matters, involve an attorney.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1 Ownership. The Site and its contents, including text, graphics, layout, logos, and the Firm’s name and marks, belong to the Firm or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property law.

7.2 Limited license. You may view, download, and print Site content for your own personal or internal business use. Any other use, including reproduction, redistribution, or publication, requires our written consent.

7.3 Feedback. If you send us suggestions about the Site or our services, we may use them without restriction and without obligation to you.

7.4 Reviews and testimonials. If you submit a review through the Site, you permit us to publish it, in whole or in part, using the name or initials you give us. Do not include figures from your return or other tax details in a review. Where you are a tax client, we will not publish a review or testimonial that identifies you until you have signed the consent federal law requires, and we will not condition any service on your giving it.

8. Acceptable Use

You shall not use the Site to violate any law, misrepresent your identity, collect information about other users, upload malicious code, scrape or automate access, interfere with the operation of the Site, or attempt to reach any non-public part of it. We may suspend or block access to protect the Site, our clients, or the Firm.

9. Third-Party Services and Links

The Site links to and depends on services operated by others, including hosting, scheduling, and the client portal. We do not control those services, do not endorse their content, and are not responsible for them. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider’s own terms and privacy policy.

10. Disclaimers

The Site is provided as is and as available. To the fullest extent permitted by governing law, the Firm disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, accurate, or current. This section does not limit the Firm’s professional obligations under a signed engagement agreement.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by governing law, the Firm shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for lost profits or lost data, arising out of your use of the Site, and the Firm’s total liability for all claims arising out of the Site shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100). This section does not apply to liability that cannot be limited by law, to fraud or willful misconduct, or to services performed under a signed engagement agreement, which are governed by that agreement.

12. Indemnification

You shall indemnify and hold harmless the Firm and its members, employees, and agents against any claim, loss, or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of your misuse of the Site, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of law or of the rights of any third party.

13. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The state and federal courts sitting in Harris County, Texas have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of the Site or these Terms, and you consent to that jurisdiction. Either party may apply to those courts for injunctive relief at any time. Nothing in these Terms waives any right you have under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act or under any other law that cannot be waived.

14. General

14.1 Notices. Notices to the Firm go to info@dngueketcpa.com. Notices to you go to the email address you have given us.

14.2 Order of precedence. If there is a conflict, the signed engagement agreement controls first and these Terms control next. The Privacy Policy, the Data Retention and Data Removal Policy, and the Do Not Sell My Information page control within their own subject matter.

14.3 Severability and waiver. If a provision is held unenforceable, it shall be reformed to the fullest extent permitted by governing law and the remaining provisions stay in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.

14.4 Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign them to a successor to our practice.

14.5 Entire agreement. Subject to Section 14.2, these Terms and the policies referenced in them are the entire agreement between you and the Firm about your use of the Site. They do not replace, limit, or vary any signed engagement agreement.

14.6 Provisions that continue to apply. Sections 7, 10, 11, 12, and 13, and any other provision that by its nature is intended to continue, remain in effect after you stop using the Site.
