Terms of Service

GoAutomate — Chmielna 10, 00-020 Warszawa, Poland

Effective date: 15 March 2025
Last updated: 15 March 2025

Plain-language summary: By hiring us you agree to these terms. We build the workflow you approved, deliver it digitally within 5–7 business days, and charge the agreed fixed price via Stripe. You get a full refund if you cancel within 48 hours before work starts. After delivery the workflow is yours.

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you ("Client", "you") and GoAutomate, a business registered at Chmielna 10, 00-020 Warszawa, Poland ("GoAutomate", "we", "us"). By submitting a project enquiry, approving a written scope, or making a payment, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you are entering into this agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

These Terms apply to all services purchased through goautomate.work or agreed via email correspondence. Our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy are incorporated by reference and form part of this agreement.

2. Services Provided

GoAutomate designs and builds custom automation workflows that connect third-party software tools and eliminate manual data-entry tasks for businesses. All services are delivered digitally — no physical goods are shipped or provided at any time.

2.1 Service packages

We offer the following standard packages. Prices shown are starting points; the exact price for your project is confirmed in the written scope sent before payment.

Starter $299

One automation workflow, up to 2 tool integrations, 5–7 business day delivery, 30-day support.

Professional $699

Up to 3 workflows, up to 5 tool integrations, error handling, 5–7 business day delivery, 60-day support.

Enterprise $1,299

Unlimited workflows, custom API development, full documentation, priority delivery, 90-day support.

Maintenance $79/mo

Ongoing monitoring, break fixes, minor adjustments. Monthly subscription, cancel any time.

2.2 What is included

Unless the written scope states otherwise, each project includes:

  • A discovery call (20–30 minutes) to understand your requirements
  • A written scope document confirming what will be built, which tools will be connected, and the fixed price
  • Build and testing of the automation workflow as described in the approved scope
  • Delivery of access credentials and a walkthrough of the completed workflow
  • Post-delivery support for the period specified in the package

2.3 What is not included

The following are not included unless explicitly agreed in writing:

  • Subscriptions or licensing fees for third-party tools (Zapier, Make, HubSpot, Shopify, etc.) — these remain the Client's responsibility
  • Changes to the workflow after the approved scope has been signed off
  • Training sessions beyond the standard handoff walkthrough
  • Ongoing hosting, infrastructure management, or monitoring (unless the Maintenance plan is purchased)
  • Work on systems we identified during the discovery call as outside the agreed scope

3. Delivery of Services

Standard delivery: 5–7 business days from the date payment is received and all required access credentials have been provided by the Client.

3.1 Delivery timeline

All services are delivered digitally via email to the address provided at the time of purchase. The delivery clock starts on the later of: (a) the business day on which payment is confirmed by Stripe, or (b) the business day on which we receive all access credentials and information necessary to begin work (see Section 6).

"Business days" means Monday to Friday, excluding Polish public holidays. If a delivery deadline falls on a non-business day, delivery will occur on the next business day.

3.2 What delivery means

A project is considered delivered when we send you all of the following by email:

  • Access to the completed automation workflow (credentials, shared workspace, or direct access as appropriate to the tool used)
  • A written summary of what was built and how it works
  • Instructions for basic operation and what to do if something stops working

Delivery is deemed complete upon sending — it is not conditional on the Client reviewing or responding to the delivery email. If you have not received a delivery email within 7 business days of payment, please check your spam folder and then contact us at support@goautomate.work.

3.3 Delays caused by the Client

If the Client fails to provide required access or information within 5 business days of our request, the delivery timeline is extended by the same number of business days as the delay. We will notify you by email if your project is being held pending information. Persistent delays (over 30 calendar days) may result in project cancellation; in such cases our standard refund policy in Section 5 applies.

3.4 Scope changes during delivery

If you request changes to the agreed scope after payment, we will pause work, assess the impact, and send a revised scope and price by email. Work resumes only on written approval of the revised scope. Revised scope changes do not affect the 48-hour refund window, which is tied to the original payment date.

1
Discovery call

20–30 minutes. We map your tools and the workflow you want automated.

2
Written scope + quote

Sent within 24 hours of the call. Fixed price, no surprises.

3
Payment via Stripe

Full payment upfront. Delivery clock starts once access is received.

4
Build + delivery by email

5–7 business days. Access, walkthrough notes, and instructions sent to your inbox.

4. Payment Terms

4.1 Pricing and invoicing

All prices are quoted in US dollars (USD) and are exclusive of any applicable taxes (including VAT) unless explicitly stated otherwise. The final price for your project is confirmed in the written scope sent before payment is requested. We reserve the right to update our standard package prices at any time; price changes do not affect projects where a scope has already been approved.

4.2 Payment upfront

Full payment is required before work begins. We do not offer payment in instalments unless this has been explicitly agreed in writing for Enterprise projects. Upon receipt of payment, we will send a payment confirmation and tax invoice to the email address associated with your Stripe transaction.

4.3 Payment processing

Payments are processed securely by Stripe, Inc. We do not store, handle, or see your card details. Charges will appear on your bank or card statement as GOAUTOMATE.WORK. By submitting a payment you also agree to Stripe's Terms of Service.

4.4 Failed or disputed payments

If a payment fails, your project will not be started. If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card provider without first contacting us to resolve the issue, we reserve the right to (a) suspend any active work, (b) revoke access to delivered materials pending resolution, and (c) recover any costs incurred by the chargeback. We ask that you contact us at support@goautomate.work before raising a dispute — we will always work with you to find a fair resolution.

4.5 Currency and taxes

All transactions are billed in USD. Your bank or card provider may apply a currency conversion fee if your account is held in a different currency — this is outside our control. Clients within the European Union may be subject to applicable VAT under local rules. Where VAT applies, it will be added to the invoice total and stated separately.

4.6 Maintenance subscription billing

The Maintenance plan is billed monthly on the same calendar day as the original subscription start date. Subscription payments are processed automatically by Stripe. You can cancel your Maintenance subscription at any time by emailing support@goautomate.work — cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period and no further charges will be made. No partial refunds are issued for unused days within a billing period.

5. Refund Policy

Full refund available within 48 hours of payment, provided work has not yet started. After work has started, refunds are assessed on a case-by-case basis as described below.

5.1 Pre-work cancellation (full refund)

You are entitled to a full refund if you cancel your order by emailing support@goautomate.work within 48 hours of the payment timestamp shown in your Stripe receipt, and we have not yet started work on your project. To exercise this right, include your name, the email address used for payment, and your Stripe transaction ID or receipt number.

Refunds are processed back to the original payment method within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank or card provider. Stripe's processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30) may be deducted from the refund amount as these are non-recoverable from Stripe.

5.2 After work has started (partial or no refund)

Once we have begun work on your project — which typically happens within 1 business day of receiving both payment and any required access credentials — the 48-hour full refund window closes. After that point:

  • If we are unable to complete the agreed scope for reasons within our control, you are entitled to a full refund.
  • If significant work has been completed but the project is not yet delivered, we will assess the amount of work done and may offer a partial refund at our discretion.
  • If the project has been delivered as specified in the approved scope, no refund is available.
  • If you are dissatisfied with the delivered work, contact us within 7 days of delivery — we will make reasonable corrections at no additional charge before discussing any refund.

5.3 Maintenance plan cancellations

Monthly Maintenance subscriptions may be cancelled at any time. No refund is given for the current billing period already paid. Cancellation prevents future charges only.

5.4 Non-refundable circumstances

Refunds are not available where: (a) the scope was delivered as agreed and you simply changed your mind; (b) the Client's failure to provide access or information caused the project to stall; (c) the Client requested changes beyond the original scope after delivery.

To request a refund, email support@goautomate.work with the subject line "Refund Request — [your name]". For the full standalone refund policy, see refunds.html.

6. Your Responsibilities

To allow us to deliver your project on time and as agreed, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete information during the discovery call and throughout the project
  • Supply all necessary access credentials (API keys, login details, integration permissions) within 5 business days of our request
  • Hold valid licences or subscriptions for all third-party tools your project requires — we build on top of your existing tools, we do not provide them
  • Review and approve the written scope before payment is made — payment constitutes acceptance of the scope as written ("Payment constitutes acceptance")
  • Respond to questions or requests for clarification within a reasonable time during the build phase
  • Notify us promptly if any credentials you have provided change or are revoked

You confirm that you are authorised to grant GoAutomate access to the systems and accounts involved in the project, and that doing so does not violate any third-party terms of service.

7. Ownership and Intellectual Property

7.1 What you own after delivery

Upon receipt of full payment and delivery of the project, GoAutomate assigns to the Client all rights, title, and interest in the custom automation workflows, configurations, and code written specifically for that project. You are free to use, modify, copy, or transfer the delivered work without restriction and without any ongoing royalties or fees payable to GoAutomate.

7.2 What we retain

GoAutomate retains ownership of any general-purpose methodologies, frameworks, templates, pre-built components, and know-how developed prior to or independently of your project. Where such materials are incorporated into your deliverable, we grant you a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them as part of the delivered work.

7.3 Third-party tools

The automation workflows we build typically connect third-party platforms (such as Shopify, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Mailchimp, Google Workspace, Slack, etc.). Your right to use those platforms is governed entirely by your agreement with those providers. GoAutomate makes no representations about the availability, continuity, or terms of any third-party service.

7.4 Portfolio rights

Unless you request otherwise in writing before project start, GoAutomate reserves the right to describe the general nature of the project (e.g., "connected Shopify to QuickBooks for an e-commerce client") in our portfolio or marketing materials. We will never disclose your name, logo, or commercially sensitive details without your written consent.

8. Confidentiality

Both parties acknowledge that in the course of the project, each may receive confidential information about the other's business, systems, customers, or processes ("Confidential Information").

Each party agrees to:

  • Keep Confidential Information strictly confidential and not disclose it to any third party without the other's written consent
  • Use Confidential Information only for the purposes of delivering or receiving the services under these Terms
  • Apply at least the same degree of care to protect the other's Confidential Information as it applies to its own confidential information (and no less than reasonable care)

These obligations do not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available through no breach of these Terms; (b) was already known to the receiving party without restriction; (c) is independently developed without reference to the Confidential Information; or (d) must be disclosed by law or court order.

GoAutomate's handling of your personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which forms part of this agreement.

9. Limitation of Liability

Important: Our total liability to you in connection with any single project is limited to the fees actually paid for that project. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or loss-of-profit damages.

9.1 Cap on liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GoAutomate's total aggregate liability to the Client for any and all claims arising out of or in connection with a specific project — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise — shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client for that project.

9.2 Excluded losses

GoAutomate shall not be liable, under any circumstances, for:

  • Loss of profits, revenue, business, or anticipated savings
  • Loss of data or corruption of data
  • Loss of goodwill or damage to reputation
  • Any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential loss or damage
  • Losses arising from disruption, outage, or changes to third-party platforms (Shopify, HubSpot, Stripe, Google, etc.) that cause a delivered workflow to stop functioning

9.3 Third-party platform changes

Automation workflows depend on the APIs and features of third-party tools. These platforms change their APIs, rate limits, and feature sets without notice. GoAutomate is not responsible for workflows that break because a third-party platform has changed its interface or API after delivery. Such fixes are covered under the Maintenance plan (Section 2.1) or can be quoted separately.

9.4 Consumer rights

Nothing in this Section 9 limits or excludes any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any rights you have as a consumer that cannot be contractually waived.

10. Warranties and Representations

10.1 Our warranty

GoAutomate warrants that the delivered workflow will function materially as described in the approved written scope for a period of 30 days (Starter), 60 days (Professional), or 90 days (Enterprise) from the delivery date ("warranty period"), provided that:

  • The Client's third-party tools, credentials, and configurations remain unchanged from those at the time of delivery
  • The Client has not modified the workflow after delivery
  • The malfunction is not caused by a change in a third-party platform's API or features (see Section 9.3)

If a defect covered by this warranty is reported within the warranty period, we will fix it at no additional charge within a reasonable time.

10.2 Disclaimer

Except as expressly stated in Section 10.1, all services are provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that any automation workflow will be free of interruptions or errors caused by third-party systems.

11. Termination

11.1 Termination by the Client

You may cancel a one-time project at any time by emailing us. Cancellations are subject to the refund terms in Section 5. Once a project has been fully delivered and the Client has received access to all deliverables, the service is complete and these Terms remain in force only with respect to provisions that survive termination (see Section 11.3).

11.2 Termination by GoAutomate

We reserve the right to terminate any project and refund the unused portion of fees if:

  • The Client has provided false or misleading information about the project or their authority to access the systems involved
  • The requested workflow would require us to violate any applicable law or the terms of service of a third-party platform
  • The Client has been persistently unresponsive (over 30 calendar days without contact) and the project cannot be completed
  • We reasonably believe completion would expose GoAutomate to legal or reputational risk

11.3 Surviving provisions

The following sections survive termination or expiry of these Terms for any reason: Section 7 (Ownership and IP), Section 8 (Confidentiality), Section 9 (Limitation of Liability), and Section 12 (Governing Law and Disputes).

12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Poland (Polish law), without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. The courts of Warsaw, Poland shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms, subject to the paragraphs below.

We prefer to resolve disputes without litigation. If you have a complaint or dispute, please contact us first at support@goautomate.work. We will make a genuine effort to resolve the issue within 14 days of receiving your written complaint.

EU consumer rights. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you may also use the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. Our email address for ODR purposes is support@goautomate.work.

Nothing in this section affects any statutory rights you have as a consumer that cannot be contractually excluded.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify active clients by email before the changes take effect.

The Terms in effect at the time your payment is received govern your project. Updated Terms apply to new projects initiated after the update date.

If you disagree with a change to these Terms, your remedy is to not place new orders. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

14. Contact Us
