These Terms of Website Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of https://thealungroup.com (the “Website”), operated by The Alun Group LLC (“The Alun Group,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing or using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to these Terms, to the extent enforceable under applicable law.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you should discontinue using the Website.

2. WEBSITE PURPOSE AND INFORMATIONAL CONTENT

The Website provides general information about The Alun Group, its management consulting services, organizational readiness advisory services, and related business activities.

The content is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not specifically prepared for your company, business circumstances, financial position, legal situation, or individual requirements.

Although we seek to keep the Website informative and accurate, we do not guarantee that all information will always be complete, current, or free from errors.

3. NO CONSULTING ENGAGEMENT CREATED

Accessing the Website, submitting a contact form, sending an email, or requesting an introductory consultation does not establish a consulting engagement or create a client relationship with The Alun Group.

No professional fiduciary relationship, client-specific confidentiality arrangement, or obligation to provide services arises solely from your use of the Website or submission of an inquiry.

Any consulting services must be established through a separate written engagement agreement accepted by the parties.

The applicable Master Services Agreement, Statement of Work, or other executed engagement document will govern the actual services provided to a client.

4. NATURE OF SERVICES AND REGULATORY LIMITATIONS

The Alun Group provides management consulting and organizational readiness advisory services, including its IPO Readiness Assessment offering based on The Alun Standard methodology.

• Audit, assurance, or independent attestation services;

• Accounting or tax opinions;

• Investment advice or securities recommendations;

• Securities underwriting or brokerage services;

• Broker-dealer or placement-agent services;

• Investment banking services;

• A determination of eligibility for listing on any securities exchange; or

• A guarantee of any financing, transaction, public offering, valuation, regulatory, or business outcome.

The Alun Standard is The Alun Group's proprietary methodology. It is not an external certification, regulatory approval, accreditation, or independent assurance designation.

Any descriptions, illustrations, assessments, scores, classifications, or other materials appearing on the Website should be understood within the context of management consulting and organizational readiness advisory services.

Visitors should obtain advice from appropriately licensed or qualified professionals for legal, accounting, tax, investment, securities, audit, and other regulated matters.

You must not submit confidential transaction materials, attorney-client privileged documents, personal health information, financial account details, passwords, or other sensitive records through public website forms or introductory scheduling tools.
