ON-SITE MEETING BOOKING TERMS:
These terms govern all local on-site visits booked through the appointments calendar. Any modifications to these terms must be explicitly agreed upon in writing prior to the scheduled visit:
- Booking Fee: A booking fee applies to cover local travel expenses and on-site time. For clients with an active pre-paid pack of hours, the total duration of the on-site visit will not be double-billed, though non-billable timesheet entries will be made for reconciliation and analytics purposes.

SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES TERMS:
These terms govern all subscription services provided by Harrison Consulting, LLC except where specifically modified by the terms contained in an accepted order or specific agreement. The following general conditions apply unless otherwise specified:
- Hours and Billing: Monthly subscription packages provide a set allocation of service hours per billing cycle. The billing cycle begins on the agreement signing date and renews on that date each month. Hours are available during the current billing cycle and expire at the end of each cycle. Unused hours do not carry forward to subsequent billing cycles. Where applicable and specified in the service agreement, additional hours may be available up to a defined maximum at the prevailing overage rate.
- Payment Terms: Monthly subscription fees are billed in advance and due before the start of each billing cycle.

Unpaid subscriptions will be automatically closed 15 days after the due date.
- Termination: The subscription runs month-to-month with no long-term commitment required.
