Terms of Service.
The rules governing how you use this website and how we work with you if we engage. Plain English where possible, lawyer-acceptable where required.

Acceptance of these terms
By accessing or using xynnlit.com, contacting us through any channel, or engaging Xynnlit for services, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, don't use the site or the services.
These terms cover two things: (a) general use of this website by any visitor, and (b) the relationship between Xynnlit and our clients. Where we have a separate written engagement letter, master services agreement, or statement of work with a client, that document controls over these terms in case of conflict.
Who we are
"Xynnlit", "we", "us", and "our" refer to [XYNNLIT LEGAL ENTITY NAME], an entity organised under the laws of India, with its registered office at [REGISTERED ADDRESS, AHMEDABAD, INDIA]. You can reach us at hello@xynnlit.com.
Use of the website
This website is provided for informational purposes — to tell you what we do, how we work, and how to contact us. You can browse, read, and share links to it for non-commercial purposes.
You agree not to:
- Scrape, harvest, or systematically extract content for commercial purposes without our written permission.
- Use the site to send unsolicited communications, malware, or anything that could harm the site or its users.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, probe for vulnerabilities, or interfere with site security.
- Impersonate Xynnlit or any of its team members.
- Use any content from the site in a way that misleads about your relationship with us.
We may suspend access to the site for anyone violating these rules, without notice.
Services and engagement
Xynnlit provides offshore bookkeeping, accounting support, and related back-office services to CPA firms, accounting practices, and small to mid-sized businesses, primarily in the U.S. and Canada.
Nothing on this website constitutes an engagement. An engagement begins only when:
- We've had an intro call and confirmed mutual fit;
- An NDA is in place at the firm and individual level;
- A written engagement letter or statement of work, signed by both sides, defines the scope, deliverables, timelines, fees, and any service levels.
What we do not do
- Sign tax returns, financial statements, or any document requiring a CPA licence.
- Represent your end-clients before the IRS or any other tax or regulatory authority.
- Give legal, investment, or tax advice — to you or to your end-clients.
- Hold ourselves out as your employees to your end-clients. We're your subcontractor; how you describe that to your clients is your call, governed by your professional obligations.
Fees and payment
Fees, billing cycle, currency, and payment terms are set out in the engagement letter or statement of work. In the absence of specific terms:
- Invoices are issued monthly in arrears.
- Payment is due within 15 days of invoice date.
- Overdue amounts accrue interest at 1.5% per month (or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower).
- You're responsible for any taxes, withholding, or duties imposed on the payment, except for taxes on our income.
If an invoice is more than 30 days overdue, we may suspend work on written notice. Suspension does not relieve you of payment for work already done.
Confidentiality
Each engagement is governed by a separate, signed NDA. The summary obligations:
- We treat all client information — including your end-client data — as confidential.
- We use that information only to deliver the services agreed.
- Confidentiality obligations survive termination of any engagement, indefinitely for trade secrets and for at least five years for other confidential information, unless the underlying NDA says otherwise.
- Standard exceptions apply: information that's already public through no fault of ours, that we independently developed, that we lawfully received from a third party without restriction, or that we're legally compelled to disclose.
How we handle personal data is set out in the Privacy Policy.
Intellectual property
Our materials. The website, brand, logos, written content, templates, internal SOPs, training materials, and workflows we develop are owned by Xynnlit. You may not copy or republish them without permission. The "Xynnlit" name and wordmark are ours.
Your materials. Anything you give us — your firm's data, your end-clients' data, your processes, your templates — remains yours. You grant us a limited licence to use those materials only to deliver the services for the duration of the engagement.
Work product. Bookkeeping records, reconciliations, workpapers, and similar deliverables we produce for you become your property on full payment of the relevant invoice. Until paid, we retain a lien on deliverables consistent with our written engagement letter.
Background IP. Generic methodologies, knowledge, and skills we developed before the engagement (and any general improvements to our own internal tooling, even if learned during work for you) remain ours.
Warranties and disclaimers
We warrant that we will perform the services with reasonable care and skill, consistent with professional bookkeeping practice, and substantially in accordance with the engagement letter.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties — merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
Limitation of liability
This section applies to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
Cap. Our total aggregate liability to you, from all claims of any kind arising out of or related to the services or these terms, will not exceed the fees you actually paid to Xynnlit during the twelve (12) months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim. For visitors who are not paying clients, the cap is USD 100.
Excluded damages. Neither party is liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of data, loss of goodwill, or business interruption — even if advised of the possibility.
What's not capped or excluded. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law — for example, liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, wilful misconduct, or, in some jurisdictions, gross negligence and death or personal injury caused by negligence.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Xynnlit, its officers, employees, and contractors from claims, damages, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:
- Your breach of these terms or the engagement letter;
- Your violation of applicable law in connection with the services;
- Your end-clients' claims that arise from your work product, your professional judgement, or your client relationship — except where those claims are caused by our breach of warranty or negligence.
We indemnify you for third-party claims that our deliverables, as delivered to you, infringe a third party's intellectual property rights, subject to the liability cap in § Limitation of liability.
Termination
Either party may terminate an engagement:
- For convenience, on 30 days' written notice (unless the engagement letter specifies otherwise);
- Immediately, for material breach not cured within 15 days of written notice;
- Immediately, on the other party's insolvency, bankruptcy, or assignment for the benefit of creditors.
On termination: you pay for work performed up to the termination date, we return or destroy your confidential information per your instructions, and the sections that by their nature should survive (confidentiality, IP, liability, indemnity, governing law, and this section) survive.
Third-party tools and links
The site links to third-party sites and we use third-party tools (Calendly, payment processors, analytics, accounting platforms). We're not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those third parties. Your use of them is at your own risk and governed by their own terms.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of [STATE / COUNTRY — e.g. India, or Delaware if you intend to favour U.S. clients], without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
Any dispute arising from or related to these terms or the services will be resolved by:
- First, good-faith negotiation between senior representatives of both parties for at least 30 days;
- Then, if unresolved, by binding arbitration seated in [CITY — e.g. Ahmedabad, India], conducted in English under the rules of [ARBITRAL BODY — e.g. the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 of India, or the rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre];
- The arbitration award is final and binding. Each party bears its own legal costs unless the tribunal decides otherwise.
Either party may seek interim or injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to protect confidential information or intellectual property.
Miscellaneous
Entire agreement. These terms, together with any engagement letter and NDAs, are the entire agreement on this subject and supersede prior discussions.
Independent contractor. Xynnlit is an independent contractor, not your employee, partner, joint venturer, or agent. Nothing in these terms creates an employment, agency, or partnership relationship.
Assignment. You can't assign these terms without our written consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or to a successor in a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets.
Severability. If a court finds any provision unenforceable, the rest of these terms remain in effect.
Waiver. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
Force majeure. Neither party is liable for failure to perform due to events beyond reasonable control — natural disasters, war, civil unrest, government action, internet outages of regional scope, pandemic restrictions.
Notices. Formal notices must be in writing and sent to the registered office addresses on file, with a copy by email to legal@xynnlit.com.
Changes. We may update these terms. The "Last updated" date will reflect any change. For material changes affecting active clients, we'll give written notice. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the new version.
