This includes business strategies, financial information, trade secrets, and any information designated as confidential. These obligations survive the termination of any engagement.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

Our services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. While we strive to deliver high-quality consulting services, we make no warranties, express or implied, regarding the results or outcomes of our services.
