Terms of use.

Effective date: August 4, 2026

1. Acceptance

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the site. We may revise these terms as described in section 16, and your continued use of the site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

2. Who we are

GrantLedge Partners is an independent organization operating in the State of Tennessee, United States. We provide financial consulting and grant support to nonprofit organizations at no charge. References to "we," "us," and "our" in these terms mean GrantLedge Partners.

We are an organization that serves nonprofits; we are not ourselves a nonprofit. GrantLedge Partners is not a nonprofit corporation, is not exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and is not a fiscally sponsored project of any tax-exempt organization. We do not solicit, accept, or receive charitable contributions or donations of any kind, and no payment to us would be deductible as a charitable contribution. Should our status change, this section will be updated accordingly.

3. Services are provided without charge

All services described on this website are offered on a pro bono basis. No fee is charged, no fee will be requested, and no payment obligation arises from any engagement. We are not compensated by funders, software vendors, or any third party in exchange for recommendations we make to you, and we receive no referral fees.

4. No professional relationship is created by this website

Visiting this website, reading its contents, sending us an enquiry, or holding a preliminary conversation with us does not create a professional, advisory, fiduciary, agency, partnership, joint venture, or client relationship between us, and does not obligate either party to proceed. A relationship arises only upon a written engagement agreement as described in section 6.

5. Scope and limits of our services

We are not a licensed public accounting firm. We do not perform audits, reviews, compilations, or any other attest or assurance engagement, and we do not issue reports or opinions on financial statements. We do not prepare or file tax returns and we do not provide tax advice. We are not attorneys and we do not provide legal advice or legal services. We are not registered investment advisers and we do not provide investment advice or recommendations regarding any security.

Our work consists of consulting, analysis, preparation of internal management materials, and support with grant research and applications. Where your circumstances call for licensed professional services, we will tell you so and encourage you to engage a qualified professional. Any material we prepare is for your organization's internal management use and is not suitable for submission to a regulator or for reliance by any third party as an audited or independently verified statement.

6. Engagements

If we agree to work together, the specific terms will be recorded in a separate written engagement agreement setting out the scope of work, what falls outside that scope, the responsibilities of each party, and the expected timeframe. That agreement governs the work performed. In the event of any conflict between that agreement and these terms, the engagement agreement controls with respect to the work.

We may decline any request at our discretion. Either party may end an engagement on written notice. On termination we will promptly return or delete materials belonging to your organization, at your election.

7. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and lawfulness of the information and materials you provide to us, and for ensuring you have the right to share them. Our analysis and deliverables reflect the information supplied to us; we do not independently audit or verify it.

You retain full responsibility for your organization's decisions, filings, financial management, and governance. We provide information and analysis to support your decisions; we do not make them, and we do not assume any management responsibility for your organization.

8. Confidentiality

We will treat non-public financial and organizational information you provide as confidential, and will use it solely for the purpose of the engagement. This does not apply to information that is or becomes public through no act of ours, that we already lawfully held, that we independently develop, or that we are required to disclose by law. Our handling of personal information is described in our privacy policy.

9. Intellectual property

You retain ownership of all materials you provide to us. Deliverables we prepare specifically for your organization — budgets, models, templates, reports, and calendars — are yours to keep, use, modify, and share without restriction and without further permission from us.

The text, design, and source code of this website remain the property of GrantLedge Partners. You may quote or reference reasonable portions with attribution. You may not republish the site wholesale or present its content as your own.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

THIS WEBSITE AND ALL SERVICES, DELIVERABLES, AND MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THIS WEBSITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT ITS CONTENT IS ACCURATE OR CURRENT, OR THAT ANY GRANT APPLICATION WILL BE SUCCESSFUL OR ANY FUNDING OBTAINED.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GRANTLEDGE PARTNERS AND ANY PERSON ACTING ON ITS BEHALF SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST FUNDING, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WEBSITE, OUR SERVICES, OR ANY DELIVERABLE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

BECAUSE OUR SERVICES ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT CHARGE, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WEBSITE OR OUR SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$100).

Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages. Where that is so, the exclusions and limitations above apply only to the extent permitted, and nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, for willful misconduct, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless GrantLedge Partners and any person acting on its behalf from any claim, loss, or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of your use of this website in breach of these terms, your provision of materials you did not have the right to share, or your use of any deliverable for a purpose outside the agreed scope of an engagement.

13. Third-party links

This website and our deliverables may reference funders, government resources, software, or other organizations. We do not control those third parties and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, practices, or privacy policies. A reference is not an endorsement.

14. Governing law and venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. You agree that any action arising out of or relating to these terms or this website shall be brought exclusively in the state courts located in Williamson County, Tennessee, or in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

15. Severability and entire agreement

If any provision of these terms is held unenforceable, that provision shall be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. These terms, together with the privacy policy and any written engagement agreement, constitute the entire agreement between us regarding this website and supersede any prior understanding on that subject.

16. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms at any time. The effective date above records when they were last revised, and revisions take effect on the date they are posted. Your continued use of this website after that date constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
