Services

DS Risk Group provides documentation, risk, compliance, investigation and related business support services. All services are subject to scope, availability and specific agreement.

Any description of services on this website is provided for general information only and does not guarantee availability, acceptance of instruction, or any specific outcome.

No legal advice

Services provided by DS Risk Group do not constitute legal advice. Independent legal advice should be obtained where required.

Nothing on this website should be treated as a substitute for legal, regulatory, financial or other professional advice tailored to your circumstances.

Client responsibilities

Clients are responsible for providing accurate, complete and timely information. DS Risk Group is entitled to rely on the information supplied unless clearly advised otherwise.

Delays, omissions, inaccuracies or failures in the information provided may affect scope, timings, findings, recommendations and deliverables.

Quotations and fees

Any quotation provided is subject to confirmation of scope. Additional work outside the agreed scope may result in revised fees or a separate quotation.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, quotations are provided on the basis of the information available at the time and may be revised if the scope, assumptions or client requirements change.

Instructions and formation of contract

No binding agreement for services arises unless and until DS Risk Group confirms acceptance of the instruction, whether by written confirmation, proposal acceptance, or commencement of agreed work.

Project-specific terms, scope documents, proposals or engagement letters may apply in addition to these terms. Where there is any inconsistency, the project-specific written agreement will usually take priority.

Deliverables and use of output

Any reports, findings, recommendations, notes, draft documents or other deliverables supplied by DS Risk Group are prepared for the agreed client and purpose only, unless expressly stated otherwise.

They should not be relied upon by third parties without prior written permission from DS Risk Group.

You may not copy, reproduce, adapt, publish, distribute or commercially exploit website content or deliverables except as permitted by law or with prior written permission.

Confidentiality

Client information will be treated as confidential unless disclosure is required by law or necessary for the delivery of agreed services.

This does not prevent DS Risk Group from using general knowledge, experience and know-how gained in the course of its work, provided no confidential or identifying client information is disclosed improperly.

DS Risk Group will not be liable for indirect, consequential or business losses arising from the use of this website or reliance on documentation provided, except where liability cannot be excluded by law.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DS Risk Group excludes liability for loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, loss of goodwill, business interruption, indirect loss and consequential loss.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
