Privacy Policy

Summary of Our Terms

When you use CountingWorks, you agree that:

  • Subscriptions – You’ll be billed monthly or annually. You can cancel anytime, but we don’t give refunds. Your access continues until the end of the term you paid for.
  • Your Data – We use best‑in‑class security and never sell your data. We do use it to personalize your experience and create recommendations with our MAX AI engine.
  • No Guarantees – We provide tools, education, and AI‑driven insights — but we don’t guarantee specific outcomes like rankings, revenue, or compliance results.
  • Disputes – If issues come up, we’ll try to resolve them with you directly. If needed, disputes will go to binding arbitration in Orange County, California, not court or class actions.
