The terms that govern using GSA Growth.

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of guidedsuccessacademy.com and our audit applications (for example audit.guidedsuccessacademy.com) (together, the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

1. Acceptance

You confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. Your continued use of the Services after changes to these terms constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

2. The Services

We provide search-engine and website auditing, reporting, and related optimisation services, including:

• Self-serve software. Automated audits and reports (for example the Revenue-Leak Audit and the Complete SEO Snapshot) that you run yourself and that are delivered digitally.
• Human services. Audits and strategy deliverables reviewed and written by a person, scoped and invoiced directly.
• Recurring services. Content Refresh, Digital PR & authority retainers, and similar engagements, provided monthly by enquiry and subject to clause 6.6.

Service scope, pricing, and deliverables are described on our Pricing page and, where applicable, in a written proposal.

3. Accounts and Google connection

Some features require you to sign in and connect a Google account to access Google Search Console. You confirm that you own, or are authorised to manage, every property you connect or audit. We request read-only access only (scopes: openid, email, and https://www.googleapis.com/auth/webmasters.readonly) and cannot modify your Search Console data. You may disconnect your Google account at any time. Connected credentials are stored encrypted at rest.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• audit or scan any website that you do not own or are not authorised to audit;
• use the Services to break any law, infringe rights, or gain unauthorised access;
• resell, redistribute, or publicly republish our reports or Services without written permission;
• circumvent rate limits, security, or access controls, or overload our systems; or
• use the Services to build a competing dataset or product.

We may suspend or terminate access for breach of this section.

5. Payments

Paid software products are sold through Lemon Squeezy, which acts as merchant of record and handles applicable taxes. We do not store full card details. Prices are shown in US dollars and may change; the price at the time of purchase applies. Recurring services are arranged by enquiry and governed by a separate written scope.

6. Refund & Dispute Resolution

The following applies to all paid products and services, and is read together with our Refund Policy.

6.1 Digital audits are non-refundable once generated. The Revenue-Leak Audit ($49) and other automated digital reports are delivered instantly and in full. Once a report has been generated for your account (or otherwise made available for download), it is non-refundable, because the product has been delivered and cannot be returned. If a report fails to deliver, or contains a material error on our side, contact us within 7 days and we will correct it or refund it.

6.2 Agency retainers require 14 days’ cancellation notice. Recurring human-delivered services (for example Content Refresh and Digital PR retainers) may be cancelled in writing with at least 14 days’ notice before the next billing date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of that notice period; the current billing period is not refunded once work for it has started. Fixed-fee projects may be cancelled for a full refund before work begins, and a pro-rated refund after.

6.3 Unauthorised chargebacks. If you dispute a payment directly with your bank or card issuer (a “chargeback”) without first contacting us to resolve the matter, and the chargeback is found to be unauthorised or without reasonable basis, we may immediately suspend or terminate your account and any active services, and revoke access to purchased reports. We will reinstate your account if the dispute is resolved in your favour. Merchants of record (such as Lemon Squeezy) handle the payment dispute process on our behalf.

6.4 Governing jurisdiction. These terms, and any refund or dispute arising from them, are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of competent jurisdiction in India shall have exclusive jurisdiction, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

6.5 How to raise a dispute. Email support@guidedsuccessacademy.com with your order reference first. We aim to resolve disputes directly within 7 business days before any formal process is required.

6.6 Third-Party SEO Metrics & Deliverables (Digital PR)

The following applies to all Digital PR and editorial outreach campaigns.

Service, not links. Digital PR and editorial outreach are professional services billed under our standard marketing retainer terms. We do not sell or promise “guaranteed backlinks”, and a retainer is not an order for a fixed inventory of links. What we commit to is a defined scope of work and delivery volume (see the Audit Credit Guarantee on our Digital PR page); what we cannot and do not promise is any specific publisher, link, ranking or metric outcome.

Third-party, volatile metrics. Any SEO metrics used to qualify or report publisher targets — such as Domain Rating (Ahrefs), Domain Authority (Moz), or organic-traffic estimates (Ahrefs, Semrush, or similar) — are third-party, proprietary metrics owned and calculated by those tools. They are indicative, date-stamped at the time of use, and are highly volatile. They may be recalculated, restated or repriced by the provider at any time. They are outside our control and are not a warranty or contractual promise by us.

Delivered as of publication. Placements are delivered and reported based on the publisher and its third-party metrics at the time of publication. Each placement is logged with its live URL and the metrics observed at that time. Subsequent fluctuations, drops, or recalculations of a publisher’s DR/DA or traffic metrics after publication do not constitute a breach of this agreement, and are not grounds for a refund or chargeback.

No guarantee of anchor, link type or permanence. Editorial placements are contextual and subject to publisher discretion. We do not guarantee exact anchor text, a “dofollow” attribute, a specific link position, or that a publisher will not later edit, tag or remove a link. If a placed link is removed or materially downgraded (for example, changed to a site-wide footer or to nofollow) within 90 days of publication, we will make reasonable efforts to secure a comparable replacement placement; this replacement remedy is provided instead of, and not in addition to, any refund.

Chargebacks. A post-publication movement in a third-party metric is not a basis to dispute a payment. Disputing a payment on these grounds is subject to clause 6.3 (unauthorised chargebacks), including suspension or termination of your account and revocation of report access.

7. No guarantee of results

The Services identify issues and opportunities and provide recommendations. Search-engine results depend on many factors outside our control, and we do not guarantee rankings, traffic, or revenue. Any figures such as “recoverable clicks”, “potential”, or “savings” are estimates and illustrations, not promises.

8. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide, for having the rights to any site or content you submit, and for deciding whether and how to implement our recommendations.

9. Intellectual property

All content on the Services, including articles, frameworks, reports, templates, logos, and graphics, is owned by Guidedsuccessacademy.com or its contributors and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and intellectual-property laws of India and international treaties. Reports we deliver to you may be used for your internal business purposes; they may not be resold or publicly republished without our written permission. Brief quotations with attribution and a link are permitted for non-commercial purposes.

10. Third-party services

The Services rely on third parties including Google (sign-in and Search Console), Lemon Squeezy (payments), and hosting and email providers. Their terms and policies also apply, and we are not responsible for their acts or omissions.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

The Services and all content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will be complete or accurate.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guidedsuccessacademy.com, its founder, contributors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, or data, arising from your use of the Services. Our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to the Services is limited to the amount you paid us for the specific Service giving rise to the claim in the three months before the claim arose.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your breach of these terms, your misuse of the Services, or your lack of rights to any site or content you submit.

14. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services if you breach these terms or if we are required to by law. Sections on intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, and governing law survive termination.

15. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of competent jurisdiction in India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

16. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by a new “last updated” date on this page.
