Welcome to the website of Laborde & Associates, CPA (“Laborde,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website located at https://labordecpa.com/ (the “Site”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms.

1. Introduction & Acceptance

By accessing, browsing, or using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Site.

2. Description of Services

Laborde is a bilingual (English/Spanish) CPA firm based in San Antonio, Texas, serving privately-held small businesses and family-owned companies since 1988. We provide accounting, tax, and other financial and advisory services (collectively, “Services”) to clients pursuant to a separate written engagement letter or other written agreement.
The Site provides general information about Laborde and our Services. The Site may also provide ac￾cess to a secure client portal hosted by a third-party provider at https://secure.netlinksolution.com/nextgen/#/ (the “Client Portal”) for existing clients to upload documents and exchange information with us.

3. Professional Advice Disclaimer

The content on the Site is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional accounting, tax, legal, financial, or other advice. Your use of the Site (including submitting a contact form or message) does not create a CPA-client relationship or any other professional relationship between you and Laborde. A CPA-client relationship is established only through a written engagement letter signed by both parties.
You should consult a qualified professional regarding your specific circumstances before taking (or refraining from) any action based on information from the Site.
Circular 230-style disclosure: Any U.S. federal tax advice contained on this Site is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or for promoting, marketing, or recommending any transaction or matter to another person.

4. Use of the Website

You may use the Site only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable federal, state, or local laws or regulations.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to, interfere with, damage, disrupt, or impair any part of the Site, the Client Portal, servers, or networks connected to the Site.
  • Probe, scan, test, or attempt to breach the security of the Site or any related system or network.
  • Use any robot, spider, scraper, crawler, or other automated means to access the Site for any purpose (including monitoring or copying any material on the Site) without our express written permission.
  • Introduce viruses, Trojan horses, worms, logic bombs, or other malicious or technologically harmful material.

5. Client Portal & Document Upload

The Client Portal is intended for existing clients only. Your use of the Client Portal may also be governed by the third-party provider’s terms and policies.
When using the Client Portal, you agree:

  • To upload only information and documents that are necessary for the Services you have engaged us to provide.
  • Not to upload unnecessary sensitive information (for example, passwords, full payment card numbers, or other data that is not required for your engagement).
  • To maintain the confidentiality of your Client Portal credentials and to notify us promptly if you believe your account or credentials have been compromised.

We use reasonable safeguards, including encryption and other security measures, designed to protect information transmitted through the Client Portal and/or the Site. However, no electronic transmission or storage method is completely secure. Therefore, while we take reasonable steps to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and you use the Client Portal at your own
risk.

You may view and print Content for your personal, non-commercial use only. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, transmit, or otherwise use any Content without our prior written permission, except as expressly permitted by applicable law.

7. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services (including the Client Portal) for your convenience. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, terms, or privacy practices. Your use of any third-party website is at your own risk and subject to that third party’s terms and policies.

Your use of the Site is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference into these Terms. Please review our Privacy Policy for information about our data practices.

9. Bilingual Services

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by Texas law, Laborde and its owners, partners, employees, contractors, and affiliates will not be liable for any damages arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Site, the Client Portal, or any content on the Site. This limitation includes, without limitation, direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, and damages for loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business interruption, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability. In those jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Laborde and its owners, partners, employees, contractors, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Site or the Client Portal.
