Terms Of Service

Last updated 21 September 2026

These terms govern your use of the website at www.abcbycarl.com, operated by Accounting and Bookkeeping by Carl, trading as Accounting & Bookkeeping By Carl ("we", "us", "our"). By using the website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.

About The Practice And What We Provide

We are a bookkeeping and payroll practice. Our services are bookkeeping on a monthly, quarterly or annual cycle; catch-up and cleanup bookkeeping; QuickBooks cleanup and reclassification; weekly and bi-weekly payroll processing; a monthly financial reporting package; and bookkeeping for healthcare and medical practices and for restaurant and food service businesses. The services actually provided to you are the ones set out in your own engagement.

The Website Is Informational Only

All content on this website is provided for general information. It does not constitute accounting, tax, financial or legal advice, it is not a substitute for advice about your own circumstances, and it must not be relied on as though it were. No engagement, retainer or professional relationship is created by visiting this site, by reading anything on it, or by submitting a form or booking a consultation.

Engagements Are Governed By A Separate Written Agreement

Any work we carry out for you is governed by a separate written engagement agreement between you and us, which sets out the scope, the deliverables, the schedule and the fees. Where anything in these website terms conflicts with your engagement agreement, the engagement agreement takes precedence for that work.

Your Responsibilities

The work we produce depends on the records you give us. You are responsible for providing complete, accurate and timely information, for keeping the underlying source documents, and for reviewing what we deliver and telling us promptly about anything that appears incorrect. You remain responsible for your own business decisions, for your own filings and obligations, and for any advice you obtain from your tax preparer, attorney or other advisers.

Fees And Payment

Fees are set in your engagement agreement and are based on the scope of the work. Catch-up and cleanup work is scoped and charged separately from ongoing services. Invoices are payable on the terms stated in the engagement agreement. We may suspend work on an account that is materially overdue, after giving you notice.

Third-Party Software And Links

Our services are delivered using third-party software, including cloud accounting and payroll platforms. Your use of that software is subject to the provider's own terms, and we are not responsible for the availability, performance or security of platforms we do not control. This website may link to third-party sites; those links are provided for convenience and we are not responsible for their content.

Intellectual Property

The content, design, text, graphics and code on this website belong to us or to our licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and print pages for your own reference. You may not copy, republish, sell or otherwise exploit any part of the site for commercial purposes without our written permission.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the website in any way that is unlawful, that interferes with its operation or security, that attempts to gain unauthorised access to any part of it, or that involves transmitting malicious code or collecting information about other users.

Disclaimer

The website is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We make no warranty that the site will be uninterrupted, error free or free of harmful components, and we make no warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of general information published on it. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, in relation to the website.

Limitation Of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, arising out of or connected with your use of this website, however caused. Our total liability arising out of or connected with your use of this website is limited to one hundred United States dollars. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. Liability in relation to services we perform for you is addressed in your engagement agreement.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any claim, loss, liability or expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of the website.

Changes To The Site And To These Terms

We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the website at any time. We may also revise these terms; the version published on this page is the current one, and the date at the top shows when it was last revised. Continuing to use the site after a revision means you accept the revised terms.

Governing Law

These terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or with the website are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. The state and federal courts located in Rockland County, New York have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to that jurisdiction and venue.

Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will stay in full force.
