TERMS OF SERVICE
Effective Date: August 20, 2026
These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of astar.marketing (the “Website”) and the information and features made available through the Website.
The Website is operated by Astar.Marketing (“Astar.Marketing,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
1. Website Purpose
The Website provides general information about Astar.Marketing, its professional experience, methodologies, publications, projects, and available strategic marketing, go-to-market, commercialization, Behavioral Market Design, and digital implementation services.
Website content is provided for general informational and educational purposes. It does not constitute legal, financial, tax, investment, immigration, medical, or other regulated professional advice.
2. No Consulting Relationship
Visiting the Website, submitting a contact form, sending an email, or scheduling an introductory consultation does not create a client, consulting, advisory, fiduciary, partnership, employment, or other professional relationship.
A professional relationship is created only through a separate written agreement accepted by Astar.Marketing and the client.
The applicable proposal, contract, or statement of work will govern the services, deliverables, fees, payment terms, responsibilities, confidentiality obligations, intellectual-property rights, and project schedule.
If a separate written agreement conflicts with these Terms, the separate written agreement will control with respect to the contracted services.
3. No Guarantee of Results
Examples, case studies, project descriptions, testimonials, performance indicators, and previous results are provided for informational and illustrative purposes.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Marketing and business outcomes depend on many factors outside our control, including market conditions, competition, budget, timing, technology, customer behavior, implementation quality, and decisions made by clients or third parties.
Astar.Marketing does not guarantee any specific commercial, financial, marketing, search-ranking, audience, regulatory, immigration, or other outcome.
