November 14, 2026 · Live agreements require an identified contracting entity and jurisdiction-specific review.

Website use and acceptance

Effective November 14, 2026. These terms address use of this Build Accord website. They do not create a referral fee, award construction work, guarantee access to a project or enroll you in a paid service. Fee and service obligations require a separate agreement with an identified legal entity and authorized signatories.

Our limited role

The proposed Build Accord service coordinates project research, qualification and business introductions. Unless a separate signed agreement expressly states otherwise, Build Accord is not the project owner, general contractor, subcontractor, employer, architect, engineer, insurer, lender or guarantor. We do not supervise construction, direct jobsite safety, issue permits, certify licensing or accept a project contract on behalf of either party.

Automation is assistance, not a guarantee

The service is designed for automated research and coordination. Current provider, agreement and billing integrations remain in development. Automated output may be inaccurate, incomplete or stale. Rankings and estimates do not establish an open contract, available capacity, compliance, creditworthiness or a likelihood of success. A project may be withdrawn or awarded at any time.

Independent verification and contracting

Each project participant is responsible for its own diligence, qualifications, licenses, insurance, tax obligations, employment practices, scope, pricing, payment, safety and performance. The project entity and selected contractor negotiate and enter their own work agreement. No website content creates agency or authority to bind another party.

Confidentiality and permitted use

Do not submit information you lack authority to share. Confidential briefs and original documents, if later provided, may be used only for the authorized evaluation and subject to the applicable signed agreement. Do not identify or contact a concealed client through misuse of confidential materials, reverse engineer invitation credentials, redistribute restricted documents or misrepresent your authority. Any non-circumvention obligation, duration and remedies must be expressly stated in the separate signed agreement; this website does not silently impose a fee.

Paid onboarding and separate referral fees

Contractors and project providers may be offered onboarding under a separately quoted fee and signed terms. Active matching starts only after verified full payment of the correct invoice, a complete profile and qualification review. Pending intake records may be retained to process the application; payment does not guarantee inclusion, a match, a quote or a work award. The intended first research action is within 24–48 hours after all activation requirements are satisfied, subject to the service commitments actually agreed. The agreement must explain deliverables, refund eligibility, cancellation and what happens if no suitable opportunity is found. Onboarding and any later referral or success fee must be itemized separately and expressly agreed.

Referral fees, signatures and invoices

Any proposed fee must identify its payer, basis, rate or fixed amount, currency, trigger, due date, taxes and treatment of cancellation or changes. A proposal or unsigned invoice is not itself proof of a binding debt. E-signature completion, signer authority and the exact document version must be verified. A project contract is distinct from the Build Accord referral agreement. Invoices must follow the agreed billing trigger; a contingent success fee is not automatically due before a job is awarded.

Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, website materials and research are provided as available without warranties of accuracy, completeness, uninterrupted access, suitability, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that a match, quote, introduction, award, payment or contractor performance will occur. Third-party media, links and providers do not imply endorsement or a partnership.

Allocation of responsibility and liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Build Accord does not assume liability for independent third-party workmanship, site conditions, safety incidents, project delays, permitting, nonpayment, lost opportunities or disputes over a work contract merely because it facilitated an introduction. To that same lawful extent, we disclaim indirect, consequential, special and punitive losses arising from use of this website, including lost profit and business interruption. Responsibility expressly accepted in a signed agreement is governed by that agreement, including its negotiated limits and remedies.

Non-excludable rights and conduct

Nothing here excludes or limits liability where doing so is unlawful, including applicable non-waivable statutory rights or liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or other conduct to the extent the governing law prohibits exclusion. These terms are not a promise of immunity from all liability. Mandatory local protections prevail over conflicting language.

Misuse, suspension and intellectual property

You may browse the site and evaluate the proposed service. You may not use it to distribute malicious content, defeat access controls, impersonate another business, infringe rights or disrupt operations. Access may be restricted for misuse. Original brand assets remain with their rights holder; third-party software, fonts and media retain their respective licenses. No transfer of intellectual property is implied.

Privacy and external services

The Privacy notice explains this website’s data handling. External enterprise, communications, signature and payment services are subject to their own terms. We do not control their availability or create a warranty for their performance.

Disputes, precedence and changes

This website does not select an arbitrary governing jurisdiction, compel arbitration or waive a jury trial. The contracting entity, governing law, dispute procedure and any negotiated liability cap must be completed in the separately signed service agreement. Mandatory law still applies. If a provision is unenforceable, the remainder applies to the extent lawful. A signed agreement controls its subject matter over conflicting website language. Updated website terms do not retroactively change an executed agreement.

Contact

Questions about these terms may be directed to acemagnifique@gmail.com. These website terms must be reviewed for the final entity, operating jurisdictions and fee model before live contracting. They do not replace jurisdiction-specific legal review.

Information provided and permitted service use

You retain the rights you hold in information you submit. You authorize us to process it to respond to your request, evaluate fit, provide services expressly agreed, protect the service and make the limited improvements described in the Privacy notice. This authorization is non-exclusive and limited to the applicable purposes and duration; it is not a transfer of ownership of your business records or project documents.

You represent that you have authority to submit information and that it is accurate to the best of your knowledge. Do not submit another party’s confidential information in violation of an agreement or law. Any permission to share a client document with a contractor must be separately established. A generic website acceptance does not release a project owner’s confidentiality restrictions.

Service improvement and limits on collection

We reserve the right, subject to applicable law and the Privacy notice, to collect and use information reasonably necessary to improve reliability, accessibility, relevance, security and user experience. This may include feedback, support issues and lawfully available operational records. Optional tracking, new sensitive data collection or materially incompatible uses require appropriate prior disclosure and any consent or other authorization required by law. These terms are not blanket consent to undisclosed collection, sale, advertising or AI training.

Where appropriate, improvement analysis should use aggregated or de-identified information and safeguards against re-identification. No claim is made that every dataset is anonymous. Confidential information remains subject to its access restrictions, and your statutory privacy rights are not waived by using this site.

Identity, eligibility and representatives

The proposed enterprise service is intended for adults authorized to act for a business. A submitted inquiry does not verify your identity, qualify your business, create an agency relationship or guarantee acceptance. We may request proportionate evidence of business identity, authority, service area, capacity and relevant credentials before activation. Statements supplied by a business remain subject to independent verification.

Quotes, project availability and reliance

Anonymous scopes may omit identifying details until the required agreements and permissions are in place. An indicative scope, projected value or automated summary is not the final project specification. Obtain the authorized documents, resolve discrepancies and confirm site-specific conditions before committing to a binding quote or work contract. No estimated project value is a promise of contractor revenue or of Build Accord’s fee.

Communications and contact preferences

Submitting an inquiry permits a response about that inquiry, not automatic enrollment in unrelated marketing. Any automated calling, messaging, recording or transcription must follow applicable law, provider requirements and relevant notices or consent. Stop requests and applicable suppression choices must be respected. A communication provider’s acceptance is not a guarantee that a message was read or that a person agreed to its contents.

Fees, nonpayment and changes to paid service

Only the executed agreement establishes amounts owed, currency, applicable taxes, payment deadlines, late charges, refunds and cancellation rights. No fee increase, recurring charge, success fee or new billing trigger may be imposed merely by changing this website. Any permitted suspension for nonpayment, disputed payments or reversed transactions must follow the agreement and applicable law. An invoice is a request for the amount due under its stated basis; it does not independently create an obligation that was never agreed.

Third-party failures and exceptional events

Internet outages, provider failures, unavailable public records or events outside reasonable control may affect research and communications. Any entitlement to relief, service credits, extended deadlines or termination is governed by the signed agreement and mandatory law. These provisions do not excuse responsibilities that cannot legally be excluded or permit us to report an action as completed when it was not.
