1. Introduction

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the website and services provided by Quantara Governance and Risk Advisory (“Quantara”, “we”, “our”, or “us”).

By accessing our website or engaging our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms are intended to establish a clear and transparent framework governing the relationship between Quantara and users of its website and services.

2. Nature and Scope of Services

Quantara provides professional advisory services across governance, risk management, compliance, and business process improvement.

Our services are structured to:

Provide independent analysis and structured recommendations
Support clients in strengthening internal frameworks and decision-making processes
Offer insights based on experience, industry practices, and available information

For clarity:

Quantara does not assume management authority, fiduciary responsibility, or operational control within client organisations
Engagements are limited to the agreed scope, and any expansion of scope should be mutually discussed and formalised

3. Engagement Scope and Reliance on Information

All work performed by Quantara is based on:

The defined scope of the engagement
Information, documentation, and representations provided by the client
Discussions with relevant personnel

Unless expressly agreed otherwise:

Quantara does not undertake independent verification of all information received
We rely on such information being accurate, complete, and not misleading

Accordingly, any limitations, inaccuracies, or omissions in the information provided may influence the outcomes of the engagement.

4. Professional Judgement and Contextual Nature of Advice

Our recommendations are developed using professional judgement, experience, and established methodologies.

However:

Advisory outputs are inherently context-specific
They reflect conditions, assumptions, and information available at the time of the engagement
They may not remain applicable if circumstances change

Clients are encouraged to periodically reassess recommendations in light of evolving conditions.

5. Implementation and Decision Responsibility

Quantara works collaboratively with clients to develop actionable insights and recommendations.

Notwithstanding this:

Responsibility for decision-making remains solely with the client
Implementation of recommendations is undertaken at the client’s discretion
Quantara does not supervise, monitor, or control implementation unless explicitly engaged to do so

6. Outcomes and External Influences

Quantara is committed to delivering high-quality, practical advisory services tailored to each client’s context.

The effectiveness of any engagement will depend on multiple factors, including:

Internal governance and execution capabilities
Management decisions and priorities
Resource allocation
External regulatory, economic, and market developments

As such, outcomes may vary depending on how recommendations are interpreted, adopted, and integrated within the organisation.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Quantara’s liability in connection with any engagement or use of this website shall be limited in a reasonable and proportionate manner.

In particular:

Our role is advisory and does not extend to operational execution
Any reliance on our work forms part of a broader decision-making framework

Quantara shall not be responsible for indirect, incidental, or consequential impacts, including:

Loss of profits or revenue
Business interruption
Reputational impact
Opportunity costs

Where liability is established, it shall be limited to the fees paid for the relevant engagement.

8. Third-Party Reliance and Distribution

All deliverables are prepared exclusively for the client and for the specific purpose defined in the engagement.

Accordingly:

They should not be disclosed, quoted, or relied upon by third parties without prior written consent
Quantara assumes no duty of care or responsibility to any third party

Unauthorised distribution or reliance may result in misinterpretation of the work and unintended consequences.

9. Intellectual Property and Use of Materials

Quantara retains ownership of all intellectual property, including:

Methodologies
Frameworks
Models
Templates and tools

Clients are granted a limited right to use deliverables for internal business purposes.

Unless otherwise agreed:

10. Confidentiality

Quantara recognises the sensitive nature of client information and undertakes to:

Maintain confidentiality of all non-public information
Use such information solely for the purpose of delivering services
Implement reasonable safeguards against unauthorised access

Disclosure may occur where required by law, regulatory authority, or professional obligation.

11. Regulatory and Compliance Considerations

Quantara provides advisory support in relation to governance, risk, and compliance matters.

However:

We do not act as a regulator, auditor, or certifying authority
Our services do not constitute formal regulatory approval or certification
Clients remain responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations

12. Non-Reliance on Informal Communications

To avoid ambiguity:

Only formal written deliverables should be relied upon as official advice
Informal communications (including emails, conversations, or draft materials) are provided for discussion purposes and should not be treated as final conclusions

13. Time Sensitivity of Advice

Advice provided reflects conditions at the time of engagement.

Over time:

Regulatory frameworks may change
Market conditions may evolve
Organisational structures may shift

Accordingly, advice should not be assumed to remain current indefinitely without review.
