Terms & Conditions

Website Terms of Use

Effective Date: 29 September 2026  |  Last Updated: 29 September 2026

These Terms and Conditions govern access to and use of the PIBG Consulting website at www.pibg.co.za. By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you should not use the Website.

1. About PIBG Consulting

PIBG Consulting is a South African professional services and business advisory firm providing accounting, tax, payroll, financial management, corporate finance, business advisory, governance, HR and compliance support, strategic business advisory, business planning and funding-related advisory services.

2. Website Use Does Not Create a Client Engagement

Accessing the Website, submitting an enquiry, communicating through a website form, requesting information or downloading a resource does not by itself establish a client, professional, fiduciary, advisory or tax-practitioner engagement with PIBG. A professional relationship arises only when PIBG formally accepts an engagement and the applicable quotation, proposal, engagement letter, service agreement or other terms have been accepted where required.

3. General Information

Website content is provided for general information about PIBG and its services. It is not intended to be a substitute for advice based on the specific facts and circumstances of a client. Information may become outdated or may not apply to every person or business. Users should obtain appropriate professional advice before making material financial, tax, legal, investment, funding or business decisions.

4. Tax, Financial and Regulatory Information

Information concerning taxation, SARS processes, financial management, funding, business structures, compliance and related matters is general in nature unless expressly provided as part of a formal engagement. Laws, regulations, administrative practices and business circumstances can change.

5. Services, Scope and Engagement Terms

Descriptions of services on the Website are indicative and do not constitute an offer to provide every service to every person. The scope, deliverables, fees, timelines, assumptions, exclusions, responsibilities and other terms of a specific engagement will be governed by the applicable quotation, proposal, engagement letter, service agreement or other written agreement.

Where these Website Terms conflict with a signed client agreement, the applicable client agreement will govern the professional engagement to the extent of the conflict.

6. Fees and Pricing

Any pricing published on the Website is indicative unless expressly identified as a binding quotation. Fees may change and a formal quotation may contain validity periods, assumptions, exclusions, taxes and other conditions.

7. Accuracy and Availability

PIBG makes reasonable efforts to keep Website information useful and accurate, but does not warrant that all content is complete, current, error-free, continuously available or suitable for every user’s circumstances. PIBG does not guarantee any particular financial, tax, funding, commercial or business outcome from reliance on Website information.

8. Funding and Finance-Related Information

References to funding, finance, capital raising, investors, valuations, financial projections or funding applications do not constitute a guarantee of funding or investment approval. Decisions are made by lenders, investors, development finance institutions, banks and other third parties according to their own criteria.

9. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, Website content is owned by or licensed to PIBG Consulting. This includes text, logos, branding, graphics, photographs, illustrations, videos, downloads, documents, layouts, website design and original materials. Use is subject to PIBG’s Copyright & Intellectual Property Notice.

10. Acceptable Use

  • Use the Website lawfully and for legitimate purposes.
  • Do not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website or related systems.
  • Do not introduce malicious code, malware or other harmful material.
  • Do not interfere with Website operation or security.
  • Do not scrape or systematically copy Website content without permission.
  • Do not misrepresent an affiliation, endorsement or relationship with PIBG.
  • Do not use PIBG branding without permission.
  • Do not copy or commercially exploit Website content without written authorisation.

11. Website Enquiries and Confidentiality

Information submitted through the Website should not be assumed to be confidential merely because it has been submitted. Users should avoid sending highly sensitive information through unsecured channels unless PIBG has specifically requested or authorised the method. Once a formal engagement exists, confidentiality will also be governed by the applicable engagement terms and professional obligations.

12. Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may link to third-party websites, software, applications or service providers. Third-party services are governed by their own terms and policies. PIBG is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, content or practices of third-party platforms.

13. Website Security

PIBG takes reasonable measures to maintain Website security, but no internet transmission or electronic system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users are responsible for maintaining appropriate security on their own devices, networks, accounts and credentials.

14. Availability and Changes

PIBG may suspend, modify, restrict or discontinue all or part of the Website where reasonably necessary for maintenance, security, upgrades, business requirements or other circumstances. PIBG does not guarantee uninterrupted access.

15. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by South African law, PIBG will not be liable for loss or damage arising from reliance on general Website information, errors or omissions, Website downtime, third-party services, harmful material transmitted through electronic systems, unauthorised access outside PIBG’s reasonable control, or decisions made solely on information obtained from the Website. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law.

16. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify PIBG against claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses arising from your unlawful use of the Website, breach of these Terms or infringement of PIBG’s or a third party’s rights.

17. Privacy

Use of the Website is also subject to PIBG’s Privacy Policy, which explains how personal information is processed and protected.

18. Changes to These Terms

PIBG may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be published on the Website with a revised effective date. Continued use of the Website after publication constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.

19. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Subject to any mandatory legal requirements, disputes relating to these Website Terms will be subject to the jurisdiction of the applicable courts of South Africa.

20. Severability

If any provision is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, it will be severed or limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

21. Entire Website Terms

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Copyright & Intellectual Property Notice and any other policies expressly incorporated into them, govern use of the Website. They do not replace or override the terms of a separate professional services agreement entered into between PIBG and a client.
