Terms of Service
Effective: May 2026
These terms govern any engagement with Field Studio. When you sign a Statement of Work (SOW) or proposal with us, you agree to these terms together with anything additional specified in that document. If something in the SOW conflicts with these terms, the SOW controls.
§ 01 The services
Field Studio designs, deploys, and operates lead-generation systems for trades contractors. The specific scope, deliverables, and channels are defined in the SOW for each engagement. We use AI tooling where it materially helps (lead enrichment, qualification, first-touch responses); we use human judgment everywhere else.
§ 02 What we do not do
- We do not guarantee a specific number of leads, booked estimates, or closed deals. Lead-generation outcomes depend on factors we can influence (system design, response speed, qualification logic) and factors we cannot (your market, your offer, your close rate, ad-platform behavior).
- We do not sell or resell software licenses. Tools we use to operate the system remain ours; the outputs (your leads, your campaigns, your account assets) remain yours.
- We do not provide legal, tax, or compliance advice. We follow industry standards; you remain responsible for your own legal obligations.
§ 03 Payment
Engagements are retainer-based with a three-month minimum, billed monthly in advance unless otherwise specified in the SOW. Invoices are due immediately upon receipt.
After the three-month minimum, engagements continue month-to-month and can be paused or ended with 30 days’ written notice. Paid fees are non-refundable except where required by law.
Ad spend (Meta, Google, LSA, etc.) is paid directly by you to the platforms unless specifically included in the SOW. We do not mark up ad spend.
§ 04 Ownership of work product
You own:
- All leads, contacts, and customer data generated during the engagement
- Your ad accounts, CRM data, and any external accounts created in your name
- Campaign creative, copy, and assets produced specifically for your brand
We retain:
- The system architecture, internal playbooks, AI prompts, qualification logic, and operational tooling we build and refine across clients
- The right to discuss anonymized, non-confidential learnings publicly (without identifying you or your data)
§ 05 Confidentiality
Both parties agree to treat the other’s non-public business information as confidential and to use it only for the purpose of the engagement. We will not name you as a client publicly without your consent. You will not share our internal materials, pricing, or methods publicly.
§ 06 Termination
After the minimum term, either party may end the engagement with 30 days’ written notice. Either party may end the engagement immediately if the other commits a material breach that is not cured within 14 days of written notice. Upon termination, we will deliver outstanding work product and reasonably assist with handover of accounts and data.
§ 07 Warranties and disclaimers
We will perform the services with the skill and care reasonably expected of a professional firm. EXCEPT FOR THE FOREGOING, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” AND WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
§ 08 Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party will be liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenues, or lost data, arising out of or in connection with the engagement.
Each party’s total cumulative liability under the engagement is capped at the fees paid by you to Field Studio in the three months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. This cap does not apply to a party’s indemnification obligations, breaches of confidentiality, or willful misconduct.
§ 09 Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The parties agree to attempt good-faith resolution of any dispute before initiating formal proceedings. Any litigation will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Hudson County, New Jersey.
§ 10 Miscellaneous
- Independent contractors. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in these terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship.
- Assignment. Neither party may assign these terms without the other’s consent, except to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets.
- Entire agreement. The SOW together with these terms is the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior agreements on the same subject.
- Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
- Changes. We may update these terms from time to time. The version in effect when your SOW is signed governs that engagement; updates do not apply retroactively unless both parties agree in writing.
