Important information about using this website.

Acceptance of these terms

These Terms of Use and Website Disclaimer govern your access to and use of
camberosaccounting.com, including its pages, articles,
downloads, forms, and other content. By accessing or using the website,
you acknowledge these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not
use the website.

Our collection and handling of personal information through the website
is described in our
Privacy Policy,
which is incorporated into these terms by reference.

Website operator

The website is operated by

Camberos Accounting & Advisory, a sole proprietorship operated
by Jorge “George” Camberos, CPA
,
referred to in these terms as “Camberos Accounting & Advisory,”
“we,” “us,” or “our.”

The firm is based in Antioch, California, serves the East Bay, and offers
remote services to clients in locations where the firm is authorized and
able to provide the applicable service.

General information only

Website content is provided for general informational and educational
purposes. It is not accounting, tax, legal, investment, financial-planning,
valuation, assurance, or other professional advice. It is not a
recommendation that any person take or avoid a particular action.

Tax and accounting conclusions depend on individual facts, documentation,
elections, jurisdictions, filing status, timing, and changes in law.
Before acting on information from this website, consult a qualified
professional who can evaluate your complete circumstances.

No professional or client relationship

Visiting the website, reading an article, submitting a contact form,
sending an email, leaving a voicemail, scheduling a meeting, or
participating in an introductory conversation does not create a CPA-client
relationship, professional engagement, fiduciary relationship, or duty
to provide services.

A professional relationship begins only after Camberos Accounting &
Advisory and the client accept a written engagement letter or other
written agreement that identifies the service, responsibilities,
limitations, and fees. Until that occurs, do not treat us as your
accountant or tax adviser and do not assume we are monitoring any deadline
or matter for you.

An initial communication also does not prevent us from working with another
person or business, except to the extent required by applicable
professional or legal obligations.

Deadlines and communications

You remain responsible for identifying and meeting your tax, accounting,
reporting, payment, election, registration, and other deadlines unless a
signed engagement agreement expressly assigns a specific responsibility
to us and we have received the required information in time to perform it.

We generally respond to website inquiries within two business days, but
this is a service goal rather than a guaranteed response time. A website
submission, email, voicemail, automated confirmation, or out-of-office
message does not confirm that we have accepted responsibility for a
deadline or engagement.

If a matter is time sensitive, contact the responsible government agency
or an engaged qualified professional directly. Do not rely on a public
contact form for urgent matters.

Professional engagements

If you become a client, the signed engagement letter and any applicable
addenda, consents, portal terms, and service-specific notices will govern
the professional services. If those documents conflict with these website
terms concerning an engaged service, the engagement documents control for
that service.

Services are subject to client acceptance, conflict and independence
considerations, available capacity, receipt of requested records, payment
arrangements, professional standards, and applicable licensing or
jurisdictional requirements. Describing a service on the website does not
mean that it is available to every person, business, industry,
jurisdiction, or situation.

We do not provide legal advice, investment management, or attest services
through this website. Any service outside the scope of an accepted
engagement remains the responsibility of the client and the client’s
other advisers.

Accuracy, completeness, and timeliness

We aim to provide useful and accurate information, but laws, regulations,
agency guidance, accounting standards, technology, deadlines, and
interpretations change. Website content may become incomplete, outdated,
or inapplicable after publication. Publication and revision dates, when
shown, indicate timing but do not guarantee current applicability.

We do not promise that every error or omission will be identified or
corrected immediately. Government websites, statutes, regulations,
authoritative guidance, and advice addressing your facts should be
consulted before making a decision.

No guarantee of results

Examples, descriptions of potential benefits, planning concepts, and
references to improved organization or decision-making are illustrative.
They do not promise a particular tax saving, refund, deduction, audit
outcome, financial result, business improvement, financing result, or
government response.

Results depend on facts, records, client decisions, implementation,
economic conditions, applicable law, agency interpretation, and other
circumstances outside our control. Nothing on the website should be
understood as a guarantee or warranty of outcome.

Public forms, email, and sensitive information

Public website forms and ordinary email are intended only for general
inquiries. Do not use them to send Social Security numbers, tax returns,
tax documents, banking information, passwords, payment-card information,
or other sensitive financial or identity information.

Active clients should use the secure TaxDome client portal for documents
and sensitive communications. No electronic method is completely secure,
and you are responsible for using reasonable care when choosing how to
transmit information.

Additional information about website data practices is available in our
Privacy Policy.

Third-party websites and services

The website may link to TaxDome, government agencies, software providers,
professional resources, social platforms, or other third-party websites.
Links are provided for convenience and general information. A link does
not necessarily mean we endorse, control, verify, or accept responsibility
for the third party or all content available through it.

Third-party services have their own terms, privacy practices, security
controls, fees, and availability. You use them at your own discretion and
should review their applicable terms before providing information or
relying on their content.

Intellectual property and permitted use

Unless otherwise stated, the website’s original text, layout, branding,
graphics, downloadable materials, and other content are owned by or
licensed to Camberos Accounting & Advisory and are protected by
applicable intellectual-property laws.

We grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable right to
access and use the website for your own lawful personal or internal
business information. You may print or save a reasonable number of pages
for that purpose, provided you do not remove ownership or disclaimer
notices.

Without prior written permission, you may not:

• Republish, sell, license, or commercially distribute substantial website content.
• Present our content as your own or imply that we endorse you, your business, or your services.
• Use our name, branding, or content in a misleading manner.
• Systematically scrape, harvest, or create a competing content collection from the website.

Brief quotations with accurate attribution and a link to the original page
are permitted when allowed by law.

Acceptable use

You agree not to use the website to:

• Violate a law, regulation, court order, or another person’s rights.
• Submit false, deceptive, defamatory, infringing, threatening, or unlawful material.
• Transmit malicious code, interfere with security, test vulnerabilities without permission, or disrupt website operation.
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation or authority.
• Collect personal information about others without authorization.
• Send spam, automated solicitations, or excessive automated requests.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to a system, account, portal, or nonpublic information.

We may restrict or block access when we reasonably believe activity
threatens security, violates these terms, interferes with other users, or
exposes us or others to risk.

Website availability and changes

We may change, suspend, remove, or discontinue website content or
functionality at any time. Maintenance, security events, provider outages,
internet conditions, or other circumstances may interrupt access. We are
not obligated to maintain any particular page, article, feature, or
download indefinitely.

Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the website and its
content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We disclaim
implied warranties concerning the website, including warranties of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, noninfringement,
accuracy, availability, and freedom from harmful components.

Nothing in this section limits obligations that cannot lawfully be
disclaimed or changes the duties accepted in a separate written
professional engagement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Camberos Accounting
& Advisory and its owner, personnel, and service providers will not be
liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or
punitive damages arising from or relating to website use, inability to use
the website, reliance on general website content, loss of data, or
third-party services.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so is
prohibited by law. Any liability arising from an actual professional
engagement is governed by the applicable engagement documents and law,
not solely by these website terms.

Governing law and location of disputes

These website terms are governed by the laws of the State of California,
without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to any mandatory law
that applies, a dispute relating solely to the website or these terms will
be brought in a state or federal court with jurisdiction in or serving
Contra Costa County, California, and the parties consent to that location.

This section does not replace a dispute-resolution provision contained in
a separately accepted engagement agreement.

General provisions

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the website, services, or law changes. The
“Last updated” date identifies the most recent revision. Updated terms
apply to website use after they are posted, subject to any notice required
by law.

Severability

If a provision of these terms is found unenforceable, it will be enforced
to the greatest extent permitted or modified as necessary, and the
remaining provisions will continue in effect.

No waiver

A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of that provision or the
right to enforce it later.

Entire website agreement

These terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the agreement concerning
general use of this website. They do not replace or modify a separately
accepted professional engagement agreement.
