Terms of Service
Last updated: July 22, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing this website or engaging 99 Strategic Solutions LLC (“99,” “we,” “us”) for services, whether directly or through a third-party platform, you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use our website or services.
2. Description of Services
99 provides two categories of Services:
- Project services — data cleaning, data validation and ETL (extract, transform, load), workflow automation, and AI-assisted business automation consulting, engaged directly through this website or through third-party freelance marketplaces.
- Subscription services — recurring federal opportunity-intelligence briefings and related bid/no-bid guidance, in which 99 monitors publicly available government contracting sources and delivers periodic summaries matched to a subscriber’s stated profile.
“Services” refers to both categories as applicable to your engagement.
3. Engagements Originating on Third-Party Platforms
Some engagements may originate through third-party platforms (including, without limitation, Upwork). Where a project is contracted through such a platform, that platform’s own terms of service, payment terms, and dispute resolution processes govern the payment and contracting mechanics of that engagement. These Terms govern the scope of work, confidentiality, data handling, and deliverable standards for all engagements regardless of origin. In the event of a direct conflict between these Terms and a third-party platform’s terms specifically regarding payment processing or dispute mechanics, the platform’s terms control for that limited purpose only.
4. Subscription Services — Billing, Trials & Cancellation [SUBSCRIPTION]
- Free trial. Subscription services may begin with a free trial period, which requires no payment method unless stated otherwise. If you do not affirmatively subscribe by the end of the trial, the trial simply ends and you are not charged.
- Billing. Paid subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly unless otherwise agreed) at the price quoted at signup, via our third-party payment processor (e.g., Stripe). 99 does not store full payment card details.
- Auto-renewal. Paid subscriptions renew automatically each billing cycle until cancelled.
- Cancellation. You may cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing cycle. You retain access through the period you have paid for. We do not provide prorated refunds for partial periods unless required by law.
- Price changes. We may change subscription pricing with at least 30 days’ notice; changes take effect at your next renewal, and continued use after that constitutes acceptance.
5. Opportunity Intelligence — Informational Only [SUBSCRIPTION]
Subscription briefings are informational and provided to help you decide where to focus. They are not legal advice, procurement advice, or a guarantee of any outcome. Specifically:
- 99 does not guarantee that you will win, qualify for, or be eligible for any contract, and does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information sourced from public government systems (such as SAM.gov or USASpending.gov), which 99 does not control.
- Bid/no-bid guidance reflects 99’s judgment as an aid, not a determination. All bidding, eligibility, and compliance decisions remain solely yours, and you are responsible for verifying opportunity details against the official government source of record before acting.
- No government affiliation. 99 is an independent private company. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of any government agency, SAM.gov, or the United States Government.
6. Client Responsibilities
Client represents that: (a) it owns or has the legal right to share any data provided to 99 for processing; (b) it has obtained any necessary consents from third parties whose data may be included; (c) it will not submit data in violation of applicable law (including data protected under HIPAA, GLBA, or similar regulatory frameworks) without prior written disclosure to and agreement from 99.
7. Data Ownership & Confidentiality
Client retains full ownership of all data submitted for processing. 99 acts solely as a service provider processing such data to deliver the contracted Services and does not claim any ownership interest in client data. 99 will treat all client data as confidential, will not disclose it to third parties except as necessary to deliver the Services (e.g., secure cloud infrastructure or AI processing tools used in service delivery) or as required by law, and will not use client data for any purpose beyond the scope of the engagement, including training or fine-tuning any AI model, without client’s prior written consent.
8. Data Retention & Deletion
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, 99 will retain client data only for the duration necessary to complete the engagement and a reasonable period thereafter (not to exceed 30 days) for delivery verification, after which it will be permanently deleted from 99’s systems. Subscription-profile information is retained for the life of the subscription and deleted within a reasonable period after cancellation. Clients may request earlier deletion at any time.
9. Deliverables & Acceptance
Deliverables will be provided according to the agreed project scope. Client has 5–7 business days from delivery to request revisions consistent with the original scope. Requests beyond the original scope may incur additional fees, to be agreed upon before work begins.
10. Fees & Payment
Project fees are as quoted per engagement, either as a fixed project price or hourly rate. Subscription fees are as described in Section 4. Payment is handled either directly by 99 (via invoicing and third-party payment processors such as Stripe) or through the applicable third-party platform’s payment system, as specified per engagement. Late payments on direct invoices may be subject to a late fee of 1.5% per month (18% annually) on the outstanding balance.
11. Email Communications [SUBSCRIPTION]
By subscribing, engaging us, or contacting us, you agree to receive service-related (transactional) emails, which are a necessary part of the Services. We may also send occasional business-development or marketing emails; every such email includes an unsubscribe mechanism, and you may opt out of marketing messages at any time by using it or by replying to ask us to stop. We comply with the CAN-SPAM Act, including honoring opt-out requests promptly.
12. Intellectual Property
Upon full payment, client owns the specific deliverables created for them under the engagement. 99 retains all rights to its pre-existing methods, tools, templates, code libraries, and general know-how, and nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of 99’s underlying systems, frameworks, or non-client-specific work product.
13. Disclaimers
Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” 99 does not guarantee specific business outcomes, revenue results, contract awards, or that any automation or AI-assisted output will be error-free. Client is responsible for reviewing and validating all deliverables, especially AI-generated or AI-assisted output, before relying on them for business-critical decisions.
14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, 99’s total liability for any claim arising from the Services shall not exceed the total fees paid by client for the specific engagement (or, for subscriptions, the fees paid in the three months) giving rise to the claim. 99 is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.
15. Indemnification
Client agrees to indemnify and hold 99 harmless from claims arising out of client’s breach of these Terms, client’s data submitted in violation of law, or client’s misuse of deliverables.
16. Termination
Either party may terminate an ongoing engagement or subscription with notice as described in these Terms. Client remains responsible for payment for work completed, and for the current subscription period, up to the termination date.
17. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes not resolved informally shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Pennsylvania.
18. Changes to These Terms
99 may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the website or Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
