Terms of Service

Last Updated: August 30, 2026

Welcome to Apex Bookkeeping Partners (“Apex,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and the bookkeeping and financial support services we provide.

By accessing our website or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our website or services.

1. Our Services

Apex Bookkeeping Partners provides remote bookkeeping and financial support services to businesses, including services such as:

  • Bookkeeping and transaction recording
  • Bank and credit card reconciliations
  • Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable support
  • Expense tracking and categorization
  • Financial reporting
  • QuickBooks Online support
  • Excel-based bookkeeping and financial data management
  • Other bookkeeping and administrative financial support agreed upon with the client

The specific services, deliverables, timelines, and fees will be agreed upon with each client before work begins.

2. Client Responsibilities

To provide accurate and timely services, clients are responsible for:

  • Providing complete and accurate financial information and documentation
  • Providing timely access to necessary accounting systems, financial records, and supporting documents
  • Reviewing information and reports provided by Apex
  • Informing us of any changes that may affect the services
  • Responding to questions or requests for clarification in a timely manner

Apex is not responsible for errors, delays, or incomplete work resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, or delayed information provided by the client.

3. Access to Financial Accounts

We use secure methods of access whenever possible.

For QuickBooks Online clients, access may be provided through QuickBooks Online Accountant invitations and appropriate user permissions.

We do not request or require clients to provide their direct banking passwords.

Clients remain responsible for maintaining the security of their own accounts and access credentials.

4. Fees and Payment

Service fees, billing frequency, payment terms, and any additional charges will be communicated and agreed upon before services begin.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are due according to the payment terms stated on the invoice.

If payment becomes overdue, Apex may temporarily suspend services until the outstanding balance is resolved.

Any additional work outside the agreed scope may be subject to additional fees, which will be communicated to the client before the work is performed whenever reasonably possible.

5. Month-to-Month Services

Ongoing bookkeeping services are generally provided on a flexible month-to-month basis unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Either party may end an ongoing service arrangement by providing reasonable written notice in accordance with the agreed service terms.

Any outstanding fees for services already performed remain payable after termination.

6. Confidentiality

We understand that bookkeeping involves sensitive business and financial information.

Apex will treat client information as confidential and will not disclose it to third parties except:

  • With the client’s authorization
  • When necessary to provide the agreed services
  • When required by law or legal process
  • When necessary to protect our rights, security, or property

We take reasonable steps to protect confidential information from unauthorized access or disclosure.

7. Accuracy and Client Review

We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate and reliable bookkeeping services based on the information and documentation provided by the client.

However, clients remain responsible for reviewing their financial records and reports and notifying Apex of any discrepancies, omissions, or concerns.

Bookkeeping services do not guarantee that a client’s financial records will be completely free from errors.

8. Tax and Professional Advice Disclaimer

Apex Bookkeeping Partners provides bookkeeping and financial data support services.

Unless specifically agreed otherwise and performed by an appropriately qualified professional, our services do not constitute:

  • Tax advice
  • Legal advice
  • Investment advice
  • Financial planning
  • Audit or assurance services

Clients should consult a qualified CPA, tax professional, attorney, financial advisor, or other appropriate professional for advice outside the scope of our services.

9. No Guarantee of Business Results

Our services are intended to provide organized financial records and useful financial information to support business decision-making.

However, we do not guarantee specific business, financial, tax, or profitability results.

Business decisions remain the responsibility of the client.

10. Third-Party Software and Services

Our services may involve third-party platforms such as QuickBooks Online, Microsoft Excel, cloud storage providers, communication tools, banking platforms, or other software selected by the client or agreed upon for service delivery.

Apex is not responsible for outages, technical failures, security incidents, policy changes, or other issues caused by third-party platforms.

Clients are also responsible for maintaining appropriate access and permissions for their own third-party accounts.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

14. Termination

Either the client or Apex may terminate a service relationship in accordance with the agreed service terms.

We may also suspend or terminate services if:

  • Payments remain overdue
  • The client provides materially inaccurate or misleading information
  • Continued service would violate applicable law
  • The client engages in abusive, fraudulent, or inappropriate conduct
  • The client materially breaches these Terms of Service
