Terms of service

Effective November 5, 2026

These terms of service (the “terms”) govern your access to and use of the website at anchormarianas.com and related services from Anchor Marianas LLC (“Anchor Marianas,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using this site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. This page is not legal advice. A signed engagement letter, NDA, or other signed agreement controls over these terms when they conflict.

1. Who we are

Anchor Marianas is the trade name of Anchor Marianas LLC, a Delaware limited liability company based in Austin, Texas. You can reach us at adam@anchormarianas.com.

2. Accepting these terms

Using the site means you accept these terms. Sending an intake note, browsing buyer wants, or talking with us does not hire us and does not create a brokerage or listing agreement. Any engagement, fee, or deal exists only in a separate written agreement signed by both sides.

3. What the service is

Anchor is an AI-first business brokerage for Texas accounting firms. Owners can submit firm information through /sellers/start or related forms. We may later offer an optional anonymous listing; if we do, we will ask for your consent first. We may prepare a rough price range for planning when hired under a signed engagement letter. That range is not an appraisal of real estate and is not investment advice. We may publish a public board of anonymized buyer wants summarized from criteria buyers publish themselves, with no names or contacts, dated, and taken down on request within 2 business days. We introduce an owner and a buyer only after the owner says yes and the buyer signs an NDA.

4. What the service is not

Anchor does not buy firms itself. We are not a registered broker-dealer or a licensed real estate broker. We do not sell securities. We do not handle funds or run escrow. We do not broker real estate or leases. Nothing on the site is legal, tax, accounting, valuation, or investment advice. Nothing creates an attorney-client, fiduciary, or agency relationship unless a signed agreement says so. Please leave out client names and client tax details when you contact us.

5. No offer of securities

Nothing on the site is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security or ownership interest. Any transaction happens only through signed documents between the parties.

6. Information on the site

Scores, estimates, buyer wants, and other site content may be wrong or out of date. Buyer wants are not offers. Verify before you rely on anything. We do not promise that any business will sell, at any price, or within any time.

7. Confidentiality and NDA

We treat owner notes as confidential. We share an owner’s name or identifying details with a potential buyer only after the owner says yes and that buyer signs an NDA. This page and the site itself are not a non-disclosure agreement. See also our privacy policy.

8. Fees

Fees are owed only under a separate signed engagement letter. Any fee is set in that signed engagement letter and paid through Stripe. Refund terms, if any, are stated in that signed engagement letter. Outside of those stated refund terms, fees for work already performed are non-refundable.

9. Referral and co-broker fees

Any referral or co-broker split is set in writing before any introduction. We do not share fees with unlicensed persons where the law bars it.

10. Your responsibilities

Give accurate information. Have the right to share what you send. Do not send client personal or tax data without authority. Do not misuse the site, scrape it, or try to identify confidential owners from anonymized summaries.

11. Intellectual property

Anchor owns the site, its content, scoring, and data compilations. You get a limited personal license to view the site. We may use feedback you send without paying you for it.

12. Third-party services and links

The site uses outside hosting, analytics, email, and payment tools under their own terms. We are not responsible for third-party sites.

13. Disclaimers

The site and any tools offered without a paid engagement are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not promise any particular business result, buyer, price, or timeline. Paid work is delivered as set out in the signed engagement letter.

14. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Anchor Marianas is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, or for lost profits, revenue, or data. Our total liability arising out of or related to the site or services is limited to the fees you paid us under a signed engagement letter for the work that gave rise to the claim in the three months before the claim arose. Some limits may not apply where Texas law does not allow them.

15. Indemnity

You will cover losses that come from your false information, your breach of these terms, or your sharing of data you had no right to share.

16. Governing law and venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and the United States, without regard to conflict of law rules. The courts located in Travis County, Texas will have jurisdiction over any dispute, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

17. Termination

We may suspend or end your access to the site if you breach these terms. Sections on confidentiality, intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, and indemnity survive.

18. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date above. Changes do not alter a signed agreement already in place. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
