Last updated: April 23, 2026. These terms govern your use of the OffshoreAccounting.com website and any services delivered by Accountably Inc.
By accessing or using the OffshoreAccounting.com website ("Site") or engaging Accountably Inc ("we", "us", "our") for any services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Site or our services.
OffshoreAccounting.com is a brand operated by Accountably Inc, a corporation organized under the laws of the United States. We provide offshore accounting staff and managed accounting services to businesses, firms, and finance teams. We are not a licensed certified public accounting firm and do not provide attest, audit, or assurance services directly to end clients. All accounting and tax work performed by our staff is done under the direction and supervision of the client.
Our services are described on the Site and further detailed in written engagement letters or statements of work signed between you and us. These Terms of Service govern general use of the Site and baseline terms of the commercial relationship; the engagement letter or SOW governs the specific scope, deliverables, pricing, and obligations of any engagement. If the engagement letter conflicts with these Terms of Service, the engagement letter controls for that engagement.
Pricing is set in the engagement letter. Invoices are typically issued monthly and payable on Net 15 terms unless otherwise agreed. Late payments over 30 days past due accrue interest at 1.5% per month or the maximum allowed by law, whichever is lower. We reserve the right to pause services for accounts past due by more than 45 days.
We treat client data as confidential. Each of our offshore accountants signs an individual non-disclosure agreement covering confidentiality, intellectual property assignment, and post-engagement data return. Our corporate-level confidentiality obligations are laid out in the engagement letter. We will not disclose client data to any third party except: (a) to our own staff who need access to perform the engaged services, (b) as required by applicable law or valid legal process, or (c) with the client's prior written consent.
All client data, work product, process documentation, and historical records remain the property of the client at all times. Upon termination of an engagement, all client data and work product will be returned to the client within five business days at no additional cost. We do not assert ownership over any client information passed through our systems.
We maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards designed to protect client data against unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Details of our security controls are published on our security page. In the event of a data breach affecting client data, we will notify affected clients within 72 hours of confirmation of the breach.
When we provide tax-preparation-related services, the client (typically a CPA firm) is responsible for obtaining required consents from its end clients under Internal Revenue Code §7216 and Treasury Regulation §301.7216-3 prior to sharing any tax return information with our offshore staff. We will provide template consent language and compliance guidance, but the obligation to obtain valid consents rests with the client. Similar requirements under AICPA Code of Professional Conduct §1.150.040 are also the client's responsibility.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability to any client for any claim arising out of or related to the services will not exceed the fees paid by the client to us during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. We will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages of any kind, including but not limited to lost profits, lost revenue, or business interruption, regardless of the theory of liability.

Either party may terminate an engagement in accordance with the termination provisions of the applicable engagement letter. You may discontinue use of the Site at any time. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Site for any user who violates these Terms of Service or engages in behavior that we determine in our sole discretion is harmful to the Site or to other users.
These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the services will be resolved by binding arbitration in Delaware under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property or confidential information.
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the current version. Continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. For active engagements, material changes will be communicated via email to the engagement contact.
