1. Introduction

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website and services provided by Fruntend ("we", "us", "our"), operated from the Republic of Ireland. By accessing this website or engaging our services, you ("Client", "you") agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Services

Fruntend builds, staffs and manages off-market origination desks for sell-side M&A advisory firms, including recruitment, training and management of Origination Associates, coverage infrastructure and conversation-to-calendar booking. Specific deliverables, scope, pricing, and performance metrics will be outlined in a separate written engagement agreement between Fruntend and the Client.

3. Performance & Results Disclaimer

Any results, case studies, testimonials, or figures shown on this website reflect specific client outcomes and are not guarantees of future performance. Results depend on numerous factors including market conditions, offer quality, sales execution, and Client cooperation. Individual results will vary.

4. Client Obligations

The Client agrees to: (a) provide accurate information about their firm, mandate profile, and target owner universe; (b) respond to qualified seller conversations booked under the engagement in good faith; (c) comply with all applicable laws, including anti-spam, data protection, and consumer protection regulations; and (d) not misuse Fruntend's intellectual property, scripts, or methodologies.

5. Fees & Payment

Fees consist of a one-time build fee and, from day 91, a recurring monthly management fee, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Cancellation requires 30 days notice. Specific payment terms, invoicing schedule, and definitions of a qualified seller conversation will be set out in the engagement agreement. All fees are exclusive of VAT where applicable.

8. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public information shared during the engagement, including business strategy, customer lists, and pricing. This obligation survives termination of the engagement.
