Terms of Service
Last updated: April 30, 2026. The rules of engagement for working with us.
1. Acceptance
By accessing arisegeo.com or engaging Arise GEO for services, you agree to these Terms.
2. Services
Arise GEO provides SEO and Generative Engine Optimization audits, recommendations, implementation, and related consulting. Specific deliverables and timelines are defined in your individual statement of work or order confirmation.
3. The Money-Back Guarantee
We refund engagement fees in full if all of the following are true:
- You implemented the audit recommendations in full, or engaged us to implement them.
- At least 90 days and no more than 180 days have passed since implementation completed.
- You can show, via Google Search Console or comparable analytics, no measurable improvement in rankings or revenue attributable to organic search.
- No major external event (Google penalty, site migration, brand crisis) materially affected results during the period.
Refund requests must be submitted in writing within 30 days of the 180-day window closing.
4. Client responsibilities
- Provide timely access to GSC, analytics, and any data needed to complete the audit.
- Implement recommendations within the timelines defined in your engagement.
- Notify us of platform changes, replatforms, or major site updates during the engagement.
5. Fees & payment
Fees are stated in your engagement document. Invoices are due net 14 unless otherwise agreed. Late balances accrue interest at 1.5% per month or the maximum allowed by law, whichever is lower.
6. Intellectual property
Audit reports, frameworks, and analytical methods remain our intellectual property. You receive a perpetual, non-exclusive license to use the deliverables for your business. Content we write for you is yours upon final payment.
7. Confidentiality
Both parties will keep confidential information confidential during and after the engagement. We do not publish client names or data without explicit written permission.
8. Warranties & disclaimers
We do not guarantee specific keyword rankings or traffic numbers. Search engine results depend on factors outside any consultant's control. Our guarantee (Section 3) is the exclusive remedy for performance shortfalls.
9. Limitation of liability
Aggregate liability under any engagement is capped at the fees paid in the trailing 12 months. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
10. Termination
Either party may terminate an engagement with 14 days' written notice. Fees for work completed through the termination date are due. The guarantee in Section 3 does not apply to early terminations.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States. Disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration in the consultant's principal place of business.
