Legal / Terms & Conditions

In this Terms of Use Agreement & Disclaimer, and throughout the agreements on this website ("Agreement"), "you" and "your" refer to each customer or website visitor; "we," "us" and "our" refer to Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc.; and "Products" refers to the digital documents, templates, eBooks, and related materials we sell.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY. BY USING THIS WEBSITE OR PURCHASING OUR PRODUCTS, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THEM.

COPYRIGHT INFORMATION

All printed and digital materials, including all of the pages in this website, material for sale, eBooks, manuals, templates, screen-fillable forms, free forms, business plans, proposals, contracts, standard operating procedures, blogs, videos and website content are copyright registered with the United States Copyright Office as property of Mike Evans, President and CEO of startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code) governs reproduction of copyrighted material. Reproduction, redistribution, or resale of our materials beyond the license granted below may make you liable for copyright infringement.

DIGITAL PRODUCTS & LICENSE

Our Products are digital documents delivered electronically. All Products are provided on a non-exclusive license basis for use within your own company only, without any right to re-license, sublicense, distribute, resell, assign or transfer the license or the documents themselves. You may customize, brand, and use the documents in the ordinary operation of your own security business; you may not share, publish, or resell them, in original or modified form, to any other party.

DELIVERY POLICY

Products are delivered by email immediately after purchase: your order confirmation includes secure download links, which expire after 30 days for security reasons. Your purchase itself never expires — you may request a fresh set of links at any time, free of charge, using the self-service form on our thank-you page (links are only ever sent to the original purchase email address), or by emailing info@startasecuritycompany.com. Orders that include the customization service are fulfilled personally; we will contact you for your company details and logo, and delivery of the customized package may take up to three business days.

REFUND POLICY — 30-DAY MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE

We stand behind our Products. If you are not satisfied with your purchase for any reason, contact us at info@startasecuritycompany.com within 30 days of purchase and we will refund your order in full. Refunds are issued through our payment processor to the original payment method and typically appear within 5–10 business days. Upon refund, the license granted above terminates and you agree to delete all copies of the refunded Products. Customization-service fees are refundable only before customization work has begun; for Professional orders (which include the customization service), refunds requested after your customized package has been delivered are reduced by the value of the customization service ($149).

PAYMENTS

Payments are processed by Stripe, a PCI-certified payment processor. Your card details are entered on and processed by Stripe's secure checkout — we never see, receive, or store your card number. Charges will appear on your statement as START SECURITY COMPANY.

CUSTOMIZATION SERVICE

If your order includes our customization service, the company details, logo, and other materials you supply are used solely to prepare your customized documents. They are stored securely, are never published or shared with third parties, and are never added to our marketing materials without your written permission.

THIS SITE IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR LEGAL COUNSEL

Our Products contain information of general application and are not intended to replace the advice of an attorney. While we expend great effort to maintain and publish accurate information, state and federal laws are constantly evolving, are open to different interpretation, and vary greatly among jurisdictions.

All documents are provided without any representations or warranties, express or implied, as to their suitability, legal effect, completeness, accuracy, and/or appropriateness. THE DOCUMENTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND WITH "ALL FAULTS," AND WE DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. The documents may be inappropriate for your particular circumstances, and state laws may require different or additional provisions to ensure the desired result. You should consult with legal counsel to determine the appropriate legal or business documents necessary for your particular transactions.

The materials, information and links posted on this site are provided for public informational purposes only and do not constitute individualized legal advice. Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc., its advisors, agents, representatives, and employees are not engaged in the practice of law and cannot provide you with legal advice. No special relationship or privilege exists between Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. and you, including any attorney-client relationship that might exist had you consulted with a licensed attorney.

We STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you consult a licensed attorney and/or accountant in the applicable jurisdiction before using any purchased document in your business. If legal advice or other professional assistance is required, the services of a competent professional should be sought.

It is your sole responsibility to ensure you qualify for and remain in compliance with the business and professional licensing laws of your jurisdiction.

THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Third-party product and service providers may advertise on this website, and we may link to third-party partners (for example, insurance providers) whose services complement our Products; some of these placements are paid partnerships. At no time is Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. making any representation or warranty regarding any third party's products or services, nor will Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. be liable to you or any third party for any claims arising from or in connection with such third-party products and services.

PRIVACY POLICY

At Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc., we place the highest importance on respecting and protecting the privacy of our customers. Throughout this policy, we refer to information that personally identifies you as "personal information."

What we collect and why. When you purchase a Product, our payment processor (Stripe) collects your name, email address, and payment details to process the transaction; we receive your name, email address, and order details — never your card number — and use them to deliver your purchase and provide support. When you submit our contact or newsletter forms, we receive the information you enter (handled by our hosting provider, Netlify) and use it only to respond to you or send you the newsletter you requested. We use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how visitors use our site.

We protect your information. We work to protect your personal information from loss, misuse or unauthorized alteration by using industry-recognized security safeguards. We do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone, and we do not share it with anyone outside of Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. and the service providers named above, which process it only on our behalf. Our website is not designed to appeal to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.

Your choices. At any time you may request to review, update, correct or delete your personal information by emailing info@startasecuritycompany.com. To unsubscribe from marketing communications, use the unsubscribe link in any email or send "Unsubscribe Me" to the address above.

CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

Startasecuritycompany.com, Inc. may update these terms from time to time; the version published on this page applies to your use of the site and to purchases made while it is in effect. Material changes to the refund or privacy policies will not be applied retroactively to completed purchases.
