Privacy & Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of circmo.com (the "Site") and all services offered by Duplais Group LLC, doing business as Circular Momentum ("we," "us," or "our"), including consulting services, assessment tools, and content resources.

By accessing the Site, submitting any form, using any tool, or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site or our services. If you are accepting on behalf of a business entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity.

The Site is intended for business professionals and organizations in the ITAD, IT reseller, data center technology, and adjacent industries. It is not directed at consumers acting in a personal capacity. You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Site.

• Content Resources — articles, podcast transcripts, and thought leadership available through the Site
• Additional Tools and Resources — any calculators, scorecards, assessments, benchmarking tools, or other interactive resources made available through the Site from time to time

Detailed terms for paid engagements are governed by separate written agreements. In the event of conflict between these Terms and a signed engagement agreement, the engagement agreement controls.

The ITAD Exit Assessment, Acquisition Assessment, and ITAD Value Builder are provided for informational and preliminary strategic purposes only. Results generated by these tools:

• Are not a formal business valuation, appraisal, or professional opinion of value
• Are not financial, legal, tax, or investment advice
• Are based solely on information you provide and do not constitute due diligence
• Should not be relied upon as the sole basis for any business, financial, or M&A decision

By submitting data through any assessment tool, you acknowledge and accept these limitations.

When you submit business data through assessment tools or contact forms, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to share that information, it is accurate to the best of your knowledge, and sharing it does not violate any confidentiality obligation or applicable law.

We treat all business data submitted through assessment tools as confidential and will not share identifiable data with third parties for commercial purposes without your consent, except as required by law or as described in our Privacy Policy.

All content on the Site — including articles, transcripts, assessments, frameworks, tools, branding, and proprietary methodologies including the E3 Lifecycle Optimization framework and any proprietary scoring models — is the exclusive property of Circular Momentum or its licensed contributors, protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Site for your internal business evaluation purposes. You may not:

• Reproduce, redistribute, or republish Site content without prior written permission
• Scrape or extract data from the Site by automated means
• Represent our tools, frameworks, or methodologies as your own
• Use our content for competitive intelligence, resale, or commercial purposes without a written license

You agree not to use the Site to submit false or fraudulent information, attempt unauthorized access to Site systems, introduce malware or disruptive code, violate any applicable law, or harass or impersonate Circular Momentum personnel. We reserve the right to deny access to any party who violates these Terms.

By submitting your contact information through the Site, you acknowledge that Circular Momentum may contact you regarding our services, relevant industry content, and business opportunities. All marketing emails include an unsubscribe mechanism. You may opt out at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any email or by emailing pete@circmo.com with "Unsubscribe" in the subject line. Transactional communications related to an active engagement may continue after a marketing opt-out.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites provided for convenience only. Circular Momentum does not endorse or accept responsibility for any third-party content, products, or services. Your use of third-party sites is governed by their respective terms and privacy policies.

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, TOOLS, AND RESOURCES PROVIDED THROUGH IT ARE OFFERED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. CIRCULAR MOMENTUM EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ACCURACY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY CONTENT OR ASSESSMENT OUTPUT. No content on the Site constitutes professional advisory services unless explicitly provided under a signed engagement agreement.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CIRCULAR MOMENTUM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR ANY ASSESSMENT TOOL, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, OR DATA.

IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM RELATED TO THE SITE EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO CIRCULAR MOMENTUM IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain damage limitations; in such cases our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Circular Momentum and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses including reasonable attorneys' fees arising out of your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your submission of false or unauthorized information through the Site.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions. Disputes shall first be submitted to good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules, conducted in San Diego, California, on an individual basis. You waive any right to participate in a class action. Either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in San Diego County to protect intellectual property rights or prevent irreparable harm.

We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of the Site after any change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will continue in full force. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any executed engagement agreement, constitute the entire agreement between you and Circular Momentum regarding use of the Site.
