Terms and Conditions

Effective date: 1 May 2025

1. About These Terms

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the AtomIQ Technologies website at atomiq.com.au and your engagement with any advisory services provided by AtomIQ Technologies (ABN provided on invoice) ("AtomIQ Technologies", "we", "us", "our").

By booking a discovery call, purchasing an advisory package, or using this website, you agree to these terms in full. If you do not agree, do not proceed with a booking or purchase.

2. Nature of the Service

AtomIQ Technologies provides strategic advisory services for founders who have built applications using AI development tools. Our services are limited to strategic guidance, which includes:

• Assessment of application structure, risk, and readiness from a strategic perspective
• Market assessment and positioning guidance
• Prioritised action planning for the stage after an AI-assisted build
• Founder decision support across product, market, and next-step clarity

Our services do not include:

• Line-by-line code review or code-level technical audits
• Penetration testing, cybersecurity audits, or security assessments
• Legal advice of any kind, including advice on contracts, intellectual property, or regulatory compliance
• Financial advice, investment advice, or accounting services
• Technical due diligence for investment or acquisition purposes
• Guaranteed commercial outcomes, growth targets, or performance promises
• Implementation, development, or hands-on building of any kind

Nothing provided during advisory sessions constitutes professional legal, financial, or technical engineering advice. You should seek qualified professionals for those needs independently.

3. Discovery Call

The free 15-minute discovery call is an initial conversation to understand the nature and complexity of your application and to determine which advisory package is the appropriate fit. It is not an advisory session and does not form part of any purchased package.

Booking a discovery call does not create any contractual obligation to purchase a package, on either side.

4. Advisory Packages and Pricing

All prices are listed in US Dollars (USD). The three standard packages are:

• Small Build Guidance — USD 3,750
• Standard Build Assessment — USD 8,950
• Complex Build Advisory — USD 14,500

Each package includes three 60-minute advisory sessions. The correct package is confirmed on the discovery call based on the scope and complexity of your application. Tailored packages, where applicable, are scoped and agreed separately in writing.

Prices are subject to change without notice. The price confirmed at the time of your payment link is the binding price for your engagement.

5. Payment Terms

Payment is due in full at the time of booking. Payment is collected securely through Calendly (powered by Stripe) when you book your three advisory sessions. A receipt will be issued automatically by Stripe upon successful payment.

Sessions are confirmed and scheduled through the Calendly booking flow. No sessions will be held until payment has cleared in full. We do not offer payment by instalment unless agreed to separately in writing.

By completing payment through Calendly, you confirm that you are authorised to use the payment method provided and that you have read and agreed to these Terms and Conditions.

6. Cancellation and Rescheduling

Once payment is received, the following cancellation policy applies:

Before any sessions have been conducted: A full refund will be issued if you cancel at least 5 business days before your first scheduled session. Cancellations with less than 5 business days notice will not be eligible for a refund.

After one or more sessions have been conducted: No refund is available for sessions already completed. If remaining sessions are cancelled, a partial refund may be considered at our sole discretion based on the proportion of sessions not yet delivered.

Rescheduling: Sessions may be rescheduled with at least 48 hours notice. Rescheduling requests with less than 48 hours notice will be treated as a forfeited session unless agreed otherwise in writing.

If AtomIQ Technologies needs to cancel or reschedule a session, we will provide as much notice as possible and offer a rescheduled session at a mutually convenient time. We are not liable for any consequential losses arising from a cancellation or rescheduling on our part.

7. Session Conduct and Responsibilities

Advisory sessions are conducted remotely via video call. You are responsible for ensuring a suitable environment and connection for your sessions. We are not responsible for sessions disrupted due to connection issues on your end.

Sessions are limited to the package holder. You may not transfer your package to a third party without our prior written consent.

All three sessions within a package must be completed within 90 days of your first session date, unless an extension is agreed to in writing. Sessions not completed within this period are forfeited without refund.

You agree to engage in sessions in good faith, provide accurate information about your application and business context, and use the guidance provided responsibly.

8. Confidentiality

We understand that you may share confidential business information during advisory sessions. We will treat such information with care and will not disclose it to third parties without your consent, except where required by law.

We may reference general themes, industry patterns, and strategic frameworks in future work, but we will not attribute specific information from your sessions to you or your business without your consent.

You acknowledge that our advisory perspectives, frameworks, and methods are the proprietary intellectual property of AtomIQ Technologies. Session participants may apply the guidance they receive in their own work but may not reproduce, resell, or distribute our methods or materials without written permission.

9. Intellectual Property

All content on this website, including copy, graphics, design, and branding, is the property of AtomIQ Technologies and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, copy, or distribute any part of this website without our prior written consent.

Any written materials, roadmaps, or action plans produced during or following advisory sessions are provided for your personal use in connection with your business. AtomIQ Technologies retains the underlying intellectual property in the frameworks and methodologies used to produce them.

10. Limitation of Liability

AtomIQ Technologies provides advisory services in good faith based on the information you provide. We do not guarantee any specific commercial, technical, or financial outcome as a result of our guidance.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, AtomIQ Technologies is not liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, or special loss or damage arising from:

• Reliance on advice or guidance provided during advisory sessions
• Decisions made by you following your engagement with AtomIQ Technologies
• Business outcomes resulting from actions taken or not taken based on our guidance
• Any inaccuracy in information you provided that affected the quality of our assessment

Our total aggregate liability to you under these Terms, in contract, tort, or otherwise, will not exceed the total fees paid by you for the specific package to which the claim relates.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded by law, including liability for breach of consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law.

11. Consumer Guarantees (Australian Consumer Law)

Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a refund or re-supply of services if they fail to meet a consumer guarantee, and for a major failure, you are also entitled to compensation for any reasonably foreseeable consequential loss.
