Google Business Profile Authority Engine | Monthly Content Memberships | Website Builds
These Terms have two parts. Part A applies to every client who purchases services from LOC8. Part B applies to everyone who uses this website, attends a LOC8 webinar, or requests a free audit or resource.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern every service LOC8 My Business, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("LOC8"), provides to the client named on the onboarding form or invoice ("Client," "you"). You accept these Terms by doing any one of the following: checking the acceptance box, signing an onboarding form or proposal, paying an invoice or deposit, giving LOC8 access to your Google Business Profile or website, or accepting delivery of any work. If you are accepting on behalf of a team, brokerage, lending company, or property management company, you confirm you have authority to bind that business.
LOC8 provides online visibility marketing for real estate professionals, including real estate agents and teams, brokerages, mortgage loan officers, and property management companies. Services may include Google Business Profile ("GBP") optimization, the LOC8 Authority Engine™ build, monthly GBP content memberships, AI search visibility (AEO/GEO) work, local SEO, and website builds, as described in your onboarding form, proposal, or invoice.
The Authority Engine is a one-time project. It delivers (a) a strategy-and-content document written for your specific market, and (b) the initial optimization of your Google Business Profile fields, which may include business description, services, products, posts, offers, categories, and attributes, depending on which features Google makes available on your profile at the time of the build.
LOC8 offers two recurring plans. Under the Do-It-Yourself membership, LOC8 delivers finished content each month for you to copy and publish yourself. Under the Done-For-You plan, LOC8 creates the monthly content and publishes it to your profile on your behalf. Your plan is identified on your onboarding form, proposal, or invoice.
Website builds are offered selectively, are scoped in a separate written proposal, and are subject to the additional terms in Section 8.
The services, deliverables, quantities, and fees you are purchasing are the ones listed on your onboarding form, proposal, or invoice. Anything not listed there is not included unless LOC8 agrees to it in writing. Verbal discussions, webinar examples, and marketing materials are not part of this Agreement.
Unless separately agreed in writing, LOC8 does not manage or respond to reviews, messages, questions, or leads on your profile; does not run Google Ads or Local Services Ads; does not manage social media; does not run citation or review campaigns; and does not provide legal, compliance, licensing, or brokerage advice.
Work begins after LOC8 receives full payment and a complete onboarding form. If required information or access is missing, the project is paused and any timelines reset. If you have not provided what LOC8 needs to start or finish your project within 30 days of payment, LOC8 may close the project and the fee is forfeited.
Any delivery date, turnaround time, or milestone LOC8 provides is a good-faith estimate, not a deadline. Delays caused by you, by Google, or by circumstances outside LOC8's control do not constitute a breach.
LOC8 uses artificial intelligence tools together with its own proprietary frameworks, research, and human review to produce content. You acknowledge this and agree that LOC8 is not liable for errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in AI-assisted content that you did not flag during your 7-day review period (Section 2.5).
The Authority Engine build includes one round of reasonable revisions requested in writing within 7 days of delivery. Monthly membership content includes reasonable corrections requested within 7 days of delivery. Additional rounds, rewrites caused by information you changed or failed to provide, or changes requested after those windows may be billed at LOC8's then-current hourly rate.
You are responsible for reviewing every deliverable. Every deliverable, for every service, is considered accepted 7 days after delivery unless you notify LOC8 in writing of a specific problem before then. Once accepted, the deliverable is complete and the fee for it is earned.
LOC8 may use employees, contractors, and third-party tools to perform the services. LOC8 remains responsible for the work it delivers.
LOC8 operates during normal business hours, Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, excluding U.S. holidays. LOC8 aims to respond to client emails within two business days.
LOC8 works with many real estate professionals, including professionals in your market and your competitors. Nothing in this Agreement limits LOC8 from serving other clients.
LOC8 builds your profile and content to a high professional standard, but LOC8 does not and cannot guarantee any specific ranking, map pack placement, search placement, AI search appearance or citation, lead volume, call volume, website traffic, closed transactions, revenue, or timeline.
These include your market's competitiveness, how consistently you maintain your profile, your reviews and reputation, your website, your responsiveness to leads, and changes Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, Anthropic, Perplexity, or any other search or AI platform make to their algorithms, features, and policies.
Any timelines, benchmarks, case studies, testimonials, screenshots, or examples LOC8 shares in webinars, on its website, or in conversation are illustrations of what other clients experienced, not promises about your results. Individual results vary, and past results for other clients do not predict yours.
Rankings and visibility can change from day to day, differ by location and device, and can go down as well as up. A drop in visibility after LOC8's work does not by itself mean LOC8's work was defective.
Neither you nor LOC8 will buy, sell, trade for, incentivize, gate, or fabricate reviews, or post reviews for your own business or against a competitor. This is Google policy, Federal Trade Commission rules, and LOC8 policy.
LOC8 provides templates and guidance for requesting genuine reviews from real clients. How you use them is your responsibility. You will not ask LOC8 to write, post, or remove reviews, and LOC8 will decline any such request.
Responding to reviews, disputing reviews, and monitoring your reputation are your responsibility unless separately agreed in writing.
A website build includes only the pages, features, and integrations listed in your written proposal. Additional pages, features, or changes are billed separately.
Your domain name, hosting, and any third-party tools (CRM, IDX, booking, forms, email) must be registered in your name and paid for by you unless the proposal says otherwise. You are responsible for renewing them. LOC8 is not responsible for outages, data loss, or downtime caused by your hosting provider, domain registrar, plugins, themes, IDX feeds, or other third-party services.
You are responsible for supplying, or approving, all text, photos, logos, license information, and required disclosures for your site, and for the accuracy and legality of all of it.
LOC8 builds sites using reasonable industry practices, but LOC8 does not warrant that your site complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act, WCAG accessibility standards, privacy laws, cookie laws, MLS or IDX display rules, or any state licensing disclosure requirements. Reviewing your site for those requirements, and providing any privacy policy, terms of use, or required disclosures, is your responsibility.
The site is considered accepted and complete on the earlier of your written approval or 7 days after LOC8 notifies you it is ready for launch. Post-launch updates and maintenance are not included unless purchased.
Once the site is handed over, changes you or anyone else makes to it are your responsibility. LOC8 is not responsible for problems caused by edits, plugins, updates, or integrations added after handover.
Real estate, lending, and property management advertising is regulated by the federal Fair Housing Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and RESPA (for lenders), the Truth in Lending Act and its advertising rules, state and provincial license laws, and brokerage and MLS rules. Content LOC8 produces is written to describe places, services, properties, and market facts, not people, and to avoid signaling any preference based on a protected class.
You are responsible for reviewing all content against Fair Housing requirements, your state or provincial advertising rules (including required license numbers, brokerage names, team name rules, NMLS identifiers, and equal housing logos or statements), and your brokerage's or company's policies before publishing, and for making any adjustments needed. You are responsible for the compliance of everything you publish or direct LOC8 to publish.
LOC8 does not provide legal or compliance advice, and nothing LOC8 produces should be treated as a compliance review or a legal opinion.
You represent that any materials you provide (logos, headshots, photos, video, text, testimonials, data) are owned by you or properly licensed to you, and that LOC8 may use them to perform the services.
You are responsible for publishing only images you own or have the right to use. Do not supply or upload MLS photos, listing photos you did not take or license, stock images without a license, or images taken from the internet. LOC8 is not responsible for third-party copyright, trademark, or right-of-publicity claims arising from images or text you supply or publish.
On full payment, LOC8 grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the content it creates for you on your own Google Business Profile, website, and related marketing for your business. Until full payment is received, LOC8 retains all rights in the deliverables. You may not resell, sublicense, or provide LOC8's deliverables or documents to other agents, businesses, or agencies.
LOC8 retains ownership of all underlying methods, frameworks, templates, prompts, proprietary terminology, processes, and know-how, including the LOC8 Authority Engine™ and its components (such as LOC8 My Posts, LOC8 My Services, LOC8 My Products, LOC8 My Offers, and LOC8 My Year). You may not reverse-engineer, copy, or use LOC8's methods to build a competing product or service.
LOC8 will not knowingly publish content that infringes a third party's rights. If a claim arises from materials you supplied or directed, Section 15 (Indemnification) applies.
Fees and payment schedules are set out in your onboarding form, proposal, or invoice. One-time project fees (including the Authority Engine build and website deposits) are due in full before work begins.
Monthly memberships are billed in advance on the same day each month and renew automatically until cancelled. By providing a payment method, you authorize LOC8 (and its payment processor) to charge that payment method for all recurring fees, and for any other amounts you owe under this Agreement, until you cancel.
You may cancel a monthly membership by sending written notice to info@loc8mybiz.com at least 30 days before your next billing date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period in which the notice period ends. Fees already billed are not refunded or prorated. Cancellation stops future deliveries; it does not remove content already delivered or published. Cancellation requests made by phone, text, social media, or a reply to a marketing email are not effective.
LOC8 may change recurring fees with at least 30 days' written notice. Continuing the service after the effective date means you accept the new fee.
If a payment fails or is late, LOC8 may pause delivery and publishing until it is resolved. Balances more than 15 days past due may be charged a late fee of 1.5% per month (or the maximum allowed by law, if lower). You are responsible for any collection costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, LOC8 incurs to collect unpaid amounts.
You agree to contact LOC8 to resolve any billing dispute before contacting your bank or card issuer. Initiating a chargeback for services that were delivered, or for a membership you did not cancel under Section 11.3, is a breach of this Agreement. LOC8 may suspend all services, terminate your content license under Section 10.3, and pursue the disputed amount plus any fees the chargeback causes.
Fees do not include sales or other taxes. If any tax applies, you are responsible for it.
Because LOC8's work is custom, produced specifically for you, and begins consuming LOC8's time immediately, one-time project fees and deposits are non-refundable once work has begun. Work is considered begun when LOC8 starts research, writing, or profile work, which is typically within one business day of receiving your payment and onboarding form.
Monthly membership fees are non-refundable for the current billing period. You may cancel future periods under Section 11.3.
Refunds are not owed for changes Google or any platform makes, for a profile suspension, for results you consider unsatisfactory, for content you chose not to publish, or for services paused because you revoked access or failed to provide information.
These Terms begin when you accept them and continue until the services are complete or the Agreement is terminated.
Either party may terminate for a material breach that is not cured within 15 days of written notice.
LOC8 may suspend or terminate services immediately, without refund, if you fail to pay, initiate a chargeback, ask LOC8 to act against Google's policies or applicable law, supply infringing or unlawful materials, or are abusive to LOC8's staff or contractors.
On termination, you must pay for all services delivered or in progress through the termination date. Sections 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 survive termination.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, LOC8's total liability arising out of or relating to the services or this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise, is limited to the amount you actually paid LOC8 for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the three (3) months before the claim arose.
LOC8 is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages, including lost profits, lost commissions, lost leads or deals, lost rankings or visibility, profile suspension or removal, website downtime, data loss, reputational harm, or regulatory fines or penalties, even if advised of the possibility.
LOC8 is not liable for the acts, omissions, outages, or policy decisions of Google or any other third-party platform, hosting provider, registrar, payment processor, CRM, or tool.
The services are provided "as is." Except as expressly stated in these Terms, LOC8 disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Any claim against LOC8 must be brought within one (1) year after the claim arises, or it is permanently barred.
You acknowledge that LOC8's fees are based on these limitations and that LOC8 would not provide the services without them.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LOC8 My Business, LLC, its owner, employees, and contractors from any claims, damages, losses, fines, and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: content or materials you supplied; content you published, edited, or directed to be published; your violation of Google's policies, Fair Housing law, lending or real estate advertising rules, license laws, or these Terms; third-party rights claims relating to images, text, video, or data you provided; your dealings with your own customers, clients, tenants, or borrowers; or any regulatory or brokerage action relating to your marketing.
LOC8 will keep your non-public business information, logins, and strategy documents confidential and use them only to perform the services.
LOC8 uses reasonable measures to protect information you share, but no system is perfectly secure. LOC8 is not liable for unauthorized access resulting from third-party platforms, your own devices or accounts, or events outside LOC8's reasonable control.
Unless you opt out in writing at info@loc8mybiz.com, you give LOC8 permission to identify you as a client and to use your business name, public profile, publicly visible results (such as rankings, calls, and review counts), and any testimonial you provide in LOC8's marketing, case studies, webinars, and website. LOC8 will not share your private financial data or logins.
Any suggestions or feedback you give LOC8 about its services may be used by LOC8 without obligation to you.
LOC8 is an independent contractor, not your employee, partner, joint venturer, agent, or brokerage. Nothing here creates a fiduciary relationship.
LOC8 provides marketing services only. You are responsible for obtaining your own legal, tax, compliance, licensing, and brokerage guidance.
During the services and for 12 months after, you will not directly hire or contract with any LOC8 employee or contractor you met through LOC8 to perform similar services, without LOC8's written consent.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Lee County, Florida, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. This applies to clients located outside Florida, including clients in Canada.
Before filing any claim, you agree to email a written description of the dispute to info@loc8mybiz.com and give LOC8 30 days to resolve it.
To the extent permitted by law, both parties waive any right to a jury trial, and you agree to bring claims only in your individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding.
In any dispute arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.
LOC8 is not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including platform outages, internet failures, natural disasters, hurricanes, illness, government actions, or third-party service failures.
You may not assign this Agreement without LOC8's written consent. LOC8 may assign this Agreement, and any client relationship under it, to a successor, affiliate, or purchaser of all or substantially all of its business, and these Terms will continue to apply.
Notices to LOC8 must be sent by email to info@loc8mybiz.com. Notices to you will be sent to the email address on your onboarding form. Keep it current.
These Terms, together with your onboarding form, proposal, and invoice, are the entire agreement between us and supersede all prior discussions, proposals, and marketing statements. If there is a conflict, a signed proposal controls over these Terms only where it expressly says so. LOC8 may update these Terms for future work and for future membership billing periods by posting a new version or sending notice; changes do not apply retroactively to work already delivered.
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the rest remains in effect. LOC8's failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.
Checking a box, typing your name, clicking to accept, or paying an invoice is a valid electronic signature and binding acceptance under the U.S. E-SIGN Act, the Florida Electronic Signature Act, and any similar law.
You confirm you are at least 18 years old, are a licensed or otherwise authorized real estate, lending, or property management professional or business, and have authority to enter this Agreement.
A website build includes only the pages, features, and integrations listed in your written proposal. Additional pages, features, or changes are billed separately.

This Part B applies to everyone who uses the Site, attends a webinar, or requests a free audit or resource. No purchase required.
By using LOC8MyBusiness.com, any LOC8 booking or landing page, or any LOC8 webinar, workshop, audit, checklist, newsletter, or other free resource (together, the "Site"), you agree to this Part B. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
Everything on the Site, in LOC8's webinars, in free audits, and in LOC8's emails and newsletters is general marketing education. It is not legal, compliance, financial, licensing, or brokerage advice, and it is not a promise of results. Applying anything you learn is at your own risk.
A free Google Business Profile audit, Lead Flow Acceleration Session, or other consultation is a courtesy, not a service engagement. LOC8 may decline or limit any free request. No client relationship exists until you purchase a service and accept Part A.
Results shown on the Site, in webinars, or in case studies are the real experiences of specific clients. They are not typical, not guaranteed, and do not predict your results.
The Site, its text, videos, graphics, checklists, and other materials, and the names LOC8, LOC8 My Business, and LOC8 Authority Engine™ belong to LOC8 My Business, LLC. You may view and download materials for your own business use. You may not copy, republish, resell, or use them to build or market a competing service.
The Site links to and uses third-party services, including Google, scheduling and payment tools, and video platforms. LOC8 does not control them and is not responsible for their content, availability, privacy practices, or terms.
By submitting a form, booking a session, registering for a webinar, or requesting a resource, you agree that LOC8 My Business, LLC may contact you by email, phone call, and text message (including automated messages) at the number and email you provided, about LOC8's services, resources, and related offers. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out of texts, or click unsubscribe in any email.
LOC8's collection and use of your information is described in its Privacy Policy.
The Site and all free resources are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, LOC8 is not liable for any damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or any free resource. Part A, Sections 14 and 17 (limitation of liability, governing law, venue, and dispute terms) apply to Part B as well.
LOC8 may update Part B at any time by posting a new version here. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept it.
Reach out anytime — we're happy to walk you through anything in this document before you sign or purchase.

Unless you are on the Done-For-You plan, publishing and ongoing maintenance of your profile after the build are your responsibility (see Section 4).
LOC8 publishes the content it creates for the agreed service. LOC8 does not manage, monitor, or respond to reviews, messages, questions, or leads on your profile unless separately agreed in writing.
LOC8 does not credit or refund unused content.
LOC8 does not take ownership of any of them. Where LOC8 needs access to do paid work, you grant it and may revoke it at any time. Revoking access LOC8 needs to perform a paid service pauses that service without any refund or credit for the paused period.
You are responsible for providing complete and accurate onboarding information, and for verifying every fact in every deliverable, including your name, address, hours, phone number, service areas, license numbers, brokerage or company details, team names, and any market data, before it is published. LOC8 relies on what you provide and is not responsible for errors that come from inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated information you supplied.
GBP visibility depends on consistent, recent activity. Unless you are on the Done-For-You plan, you are responsible for publishing posts on a regular cadence, uploading photos, requesting reviews consistently, posting events, rotating offers, and keeping your profile information current. LOC8 provides a recommended cadence in your build document. LOC8 is not responsible for results lost due to inconsistent maintenance.
You are responsible for making sure everything published on your profile and website complies with Google's policies, the federal Fair Housing Act, your state or provincial real estate, lending, or property management license and advertising rules, and your brokerage's or company's requirements (see Sections 6, 7, and 9).
You are responsible for the security of your Google account, website logins, and any credentials you share with LOC8. Grant access through official manager or user roles wherever possible rather than sharing passwords. Keep your recovery email and phone number current. LOC8 is not responsible for account lockouts, verification problems, or losses caused by credentials you failed to secure or update.
If your brokerage, lender, or employer requires approval of marketing content, obtaining that approval is your responsibility, and it does not extend LOC8's revision or acceptance windows.
LOC8 builds your profile and content to a high professional standard, but LOC8 does not and cannot guarantee any specific ranking, map pack placement, search placement, AI search appearance or citation, lead volume, call volume, website traffic, closed transactions, revenue, or timeline.
Results depend on factors outside LOC8's control, including your market's competitiveness, how consistently you maintain your profile, your reviews and reputation, your website, your responsiveness to leads, and changes Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, Anthropic, Perplexity, or any other search or AI platform make to their algorithms, features, and policies.
Any timelines, benchmarks, case studies, testimonials, screenshots, or examples LOC8 shares in webinars, on its website, or in conversation are illustrations of what other clients experienced, not promises about your results. Individual results vary, and past results for other clients do not predict yours.
Rankings and visibility can change from day to day, differ by location and device, and can go down as well as up. A drop in visibility after LOC8's work does not by itself mean LOC8's work was defective.
Your profile exists on Google's platform and is subject to Google's terms and policies, which Google may change or enforce at any time without notice. The same applies to any other platform LOC8's work touches, including AI search tools, website hosting, domain registrars, and CRM or scheduling tools.
LOC8 is not responsible for: changes Google or any platform makes to features, availability, or appearance (for example, removing or limiting the Products section, posts, or attributes); Google suspending, penalizing, restricting, re-verifying, or removing your profile; verification requirements or delays; profile merges, duplicate profiles, or ownership disputes; or any consequence of your profile being flagged for content or actions that violate Google's guidelines.
If Google removes or changes a feature after your project is scoped, LOC8 may substitute a comparable deliverable at its discretion. A feature change does not entitle you to a refund.
If your profile is suspended, LOC8 may, as a courtesy and without obligation, provide general guidance on reinstatement. Reinstatement is at Google's sole discretion, and LOC8 does not guarantee it.
You agree not to take actions that violate Google's policies, including adding keywords to your business name, creating duplicate profiles, using a fake or unstaffed address, or misrepresenting your business. If LOC8 advises against an action for policy reasons and you direct us to proceed, or if you take that action yourself, you accept all risk and consequences.
Neither you nor LOC8 will buy, sell, trade for, incentivize, gate, or fabricate reviews, or post reviews for your own business or against a competitor. This is Google policy, Federal Trade Commission rules, and LOC8 policy.
LOC8 provides templates and guidance for requesting genuine reviews from real clients. How you use them is your responsibility. You will not ask LOC8 to write, post, or remove reviews, and LOC8 will decline any such request.
Responding to reviews, disputing reviews, and monitoring your reputation are your responsibility unless separately agreed in writing.
A website build includes only the pages, features, and integrations listed in your written proposal. Additional pages, features, or changes are billed separately.
Your domain name, hosting, and any third-party tools (CRM, IDX, booking, forms, email) must be registered in your name and paid for by you unless the proposal says otherwise. You are responsible for renewing them. LOC8 is not responsible for outages, data loss, or downtime caused by your hosting provider, domain registrar, plugins, themes, IDX feeds, or other third-party services.
You are responsible for supplying, or approving, all text, photos, logos, license information, and required disclosures for your site, and for the accuracy and legality of all of it.
LOC8 builds sites using reasonable industry practices, but LOC8 does not warrant that your site complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act, WCAG accessibility standards, privacy laws, cookie laws, MLS or IDX display rules, or any state licensing disclosure requirements. Reviewing your site for those requirements, and providing any privacy policy, terms of use, or required disclosures, is your responsibility.
The site is considered accepted and complete on the earlier of your written approval or 7 days after LOC8 notifies you it is ready for launch. Post-launch updates and maintenance are not included unless purchased.
Once the site is handed over, changes you or anyone else makes to it are your responsibility. LOC8 is not responsible for problems caused by edits, plugins, updates, or integrations added after handover.
Real estate, lending, and property management advertising is regulated by the federal Fair Housing Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and RESPA (for lenders), the Truth in Lending Act and its advertising rules, state and provincial license laws, and brokerage and MLS rules. Content LOC8 produces is written to describe places, services, properties, and market facts, not people, and to avoid signaling any preference based on a protected class.
You are responsible for reviewing all content against Fair Housing requirements, your state or provincial advertising rules (including required license numbers, brokerage names, team name rules, NMLS identifiers, and equal housing logos or statements), and your brokerage's or company's policies before publishing, and for making any adjustments needed. You are responsible for the compliance of everything you publish or direct LOC8 to publish.
LOC8 does not provide legal or compliance advice, and nothing LOC8 produces should be treated as a compliance review or a legal opinion.
You represent that any materials you provide (logos, headshots, photos, video, text, testimonials, data) are owned by you or properly licensed to you, and that LOC8 may use them to perform the services.
You are responsible for publishing only images you own or have the right to use. Do not supply or upload MLS photos, listing photos you did not take or license, stock images without a license, or images taken from the internet. LOC8 is not responsible for third-party copyright, trademark, or right-of-publicity claims arising from images or text you supply or publish.
On full payment, LOC8 grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the content it creates for you on your own Google Business Profile, website, and related marketing for your business. Until full payment is received, LOC8 retains all rights in the deliverables. You may not resell, sublicense, or provide LOC8's deliverables or documents to other agents, businesses, or agencies.
LOC8 retains ownership of all underlying methods, frameworks, templates, prompts, proprietary terminology, processes, and know-how, including the LOC8 Authority Engine™ and its components (such as LOC8 My Posts, LOC8 My Services, LOC8 My Products, LOC8 My Offers, and LOC8 My Year). You may not reverse-engineer, copy, or use LOC8's methods to build a competing product or service.
LOC8 will not knowingly publish content that infringes a third party's rights. If a claim arises from materials you supplied or directed, Section 15 (Indemnification) applies.
Fees and payment schedules are set out in your onboarding form, proposal, or invoice. One-time project fees (including the Authority Engine build and website deposits) are due in full before work begins.
Monthly memberships are billed in advance on the same day each month and renew automatically until cancelled. By providing a payment method, you authorize LOC8 (and its payment processor) to charge that payment method for all recurring fees, and for any other amounts you owe under this Agreement, until you cancel.
You may cancel a monthly membership by sending written notice to info@loc8mybiz.com at least 30 days before your next billing date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period in which the notice period ends. Fees already billed are not refunded or prorated. Cancellation stops future deliveries; it does not remove content already delivered or published. Cancellation requests made by phone, text, social media, or a reply to a marketing email are not effective.
LOC8 may change recurring fees with at least 30 days' written notice. Continuing the service after the effective date means you accept the new fee.
If a payment fails or is late, LOC8 may pause delivery and publishing until it is resolved. Balances more than 15 days past due may be charged a late fee of 1.5% per month (or the maximum allowed by law, if lower). You are responsible for any collection costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, LOC8 incurs to collect unpaid amounts.
You agree to contact LOC8 to resolve any billing dispute before contacting your bank or card issuer. Initiating a chargeback for services that were delivered, or for a membership you did not cancel under Section 11.3, is a breach of this Agreement. LOC8 may suspend all services, terminate your content license under Section 10.3, and pursue the disputed amount plus any fees the chargeback causes.
Fees do not include sales or other taxes. If any tax applies, you are responsible for it.
Because LOC8's work is custom, produced specifically for you, and begins consuming LOC8's time immediately, one-time project fees and deposits are non-refundable once work has begun. Work is considered begun when LOC8 starts research, writing, or profile work, which is typically within one business day of receiving your payment and onboarding form.
Monthly membership fees are non-refundable for the current billing period. You may cancel future periods under Section 11.3.
Refunds are not owed for changes Google or any platform makes, for a profile suspension, for results you consider unsatisfactory, for content you chose not to publish, or for services paused because you revoked access or failed to provide information.
These Terms begin when you accept them and continue until the services are complete or the Agreement is terminated.
Either party may terminate for a material breach that is not cured within 15 days of written notice.
LOC8 may suspend or terminate services immediately, without refund, if you fail to pay, initiate a chargeback, ask LOC8 to act against Google's policies or applicable law, supply infringing or unlawful materials, or are abusive to LOC8's staff or contractors.
On termination, you must pay for all services delivered or in progress through the termination date. Sections 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 survive termination.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, LOC8's total liability arising out of or relating to the services or this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise, is limited to the amount you actually paid LOC8 for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the three (3) months before the claim arose.
LOC8 is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages, including lost profits, lost commissions, lost leads or deals, lost rankings or visibility, profile suspension or removal, website downtime, data loss, reputational harm, or regulatory fines or penalties, even if advised of the possibility.
LOC8 is not liable for the acts, omissions, outages, or policy decisions of Google or any other third-party platform, hosting provider, registrar, payment processor, CRM, or tool.
The services are provided "as is." Except as expressly stated in these Terms, LOC8 disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Any claim against LOC8 must be brought within one (1) year after the claim arises, or it is permanently barred.
You acknowledge that LOC8's fees are based on these limitations and that LOC8 would not provide the services without them.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless LOC8 My Business, LLC, its owner, employees, and contractors from any claims, damages, losses, fines, and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: content or materials you supplied; content you published, edited, or directed to be published; your violation of Google's policies, Fair Housing law, lending or real estate advertising rules, license laws, or these Terms; third-party rights claims relating to images, text, video, or data you provided; your dealings with your own customers, clients, tenants, or borrowers; or any regulatory or brokerage action relating to your marketing.
LOC8 will keep your non-public business information, logins, and strategy documents confidential and use them only to perform the services.
LOC8 uses reasonable measures to protect information you share, but no system is perfectly secure. LOC8 is not liable for unauthorized access resulting from third-party platforms, your own devices or accounts, or events outside LOC8's reasonable control.
Unless you opt out in writing at info@loc8mybiz.com, you give LOC8 permission to identify you as a client and to use your business name, public profile, publicly visible results (such as rankings, calls, and review counts), and any testimonial you provide in LOC8's marketing, case studies, webinars, and website. LOC8 will not share your private financial data or logins.
Any suggestions or feedback you give LOC8 about its services may be used by LOC8 without obligation to you.
LOC8 is an independent contractor, not your employee, partner, joint venturer, agent, or brokerage. Nothing here creates a fiduciary relationship.
LOC8 provides marketing services only. You are responsible for obtaining your own legal, tax, compliance, licensing, and brokerage guidance.
During the services and for 12 months after, you will not directly hire or contract with any LOC8 employee or contractor you met through LOC8 to perform similar services, without LOC8's written consent.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Lee County, Florida, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. This applies to clients located outside Florida, including clients in Canada.
Before filing any claim, you agree to email a written description of the dispute to info@loc8mybiz.com and give LOC8 30 days to resolve it.
To the extent permitted by law, both parties waive any right to a jury trial, and you agree to bring claims only in your individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding.
In any dispute arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.
LOC8 is not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including platform outages, internet failures, natural disasters, hurricanes, illness, government actions, or third-party service failures.
You may not assign this Agreement without LOC8's written consent. LOC8 may assign this Agreement, and any client relationship under it, to a successor, affiliate, or purchaser of all or substantially all of its business, and these Terms will continue to apply.
Notices to LOC8 must be sent by email to info@loc8mybiz.com. Notices to you will be sent to the email address on your onboarding form. Keep it current.
These Terms, together with your onboarding form, proposal, and invoice, are the entire agreement between us and supersede all prior discussions, proposals, and marketing statements. If there is a conflict, a signed proposal controls over these Terms only where it expressly says so. LOC8 may update these Terms for future work and for future membership billing periods by posting a new version or sending notice; changes do not apply retroactively to work already delivered.
If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the rest remains in effect. LOC8's failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.
Checking a box, typing your name, clicking to accept, or paying an invoice is a valid electronic signature and binding acceptance under the U.S. E-SIGN Act, the Florida Electronic Signature Act, and any similar law.
You confirm you are at least 18 years old, are a licensed or otherwise authorized real estate, lending, or property management professional or business, and have authority to enter this Agreement.
By checking the acceptance box, signing, or paying, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms, including specifically: the no-guarantee-of-results statement (Section 5); your ongoing maintenance and accuracy responsibilities (Section 4); the Google platform and suspension risks (Section 6); the Fair Housing and advertising compliance obligations (Section 9); the automatic renewal, 30-day cancellation, and no-refund terms (Sections 11 and 12); the limitation of liability (Section 14); and the Lee County, Florida venue and jury waiver (Section 17).
