Compensation Advisory Terms

These terms apply to compensation advisory services provided by Meghana Reddy. By booking a session, you agree to the following.

What I'm providing

My role is to help you think through compensation decisions, including topics such as compensation benchmarking, offers, equity, negotiation strategy, and related career decisions.

I'll provide advice based on my experience and the information available to me. You remain responsible for any decisions you make and for how you use that advice. I can't guarantee a particular compensation, negotiation, employment, or financial outcome.

My services are advisory only. I am not acting as your attorney, accountant, tax advisor, financial advisor, fiduciary, employment agent, or representative in negotiations with your employer or another company.

Confidentiality

I will treat the information you share with me as confidential and will not disclose your situation, compensation information, or identity except as described below. Our communications are not protected by attorney-client privilege or another professional privilege.

I may keep private notes to help me provide the service and follow up with you. I won't record or transcribe our conversations without your consent, and I ask that you do the same.

I may share information with service providers I use to operate my business—for example, scheduling, payment, email, and document-storage providers—to the extent reasonably necessary for them to provide those services. I will take reasonable steps to protect information you share with me.

I may also disclose information with your permission or if required by law.

Your information

You are responsible for deciding what information to share with me. Please don't provide information that you aren't authorized to disclose, including confidential or proprietary information belonging to your employer or another person.

You agree that I can use the information you provide for the purpose of providing the advisory services you've requested.

Conflicts

I advise both individuals and companies and may have relationships with companies, investors, founders, or other people relevant to your situation.

If I become aware of a conflict that I believe would materially interfere with my ability to advise you independently, I'll let you know. If that means I can't reasonably provide the service, I'll cancel the engagement and refund any fees you've paid for services I haven't provided.

Scheduling and cancellations

You may reschedule or cancel your session up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time.

Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice and missed appointments are generally non-refundable. If you're late, we may need to end at the originally scheduled time.

If I need to cancel or reschedule, you may choose another available time or receive a refund for the affected session.

Fees and refunds

Fees are due when you book unless otherwise stated.

Once a session has taken place, fees for that session are non-refundable. If your engagement includes additional support after the session, that support must be used within the period described when you purchased the service.

No guarantees

Compensation data is imperfect, company practices vary, and the value of equity and other forms of compensation can change substantially. Any benchmarks, estimates, valuations, or other information I provide should be treated as inputs into your decision rather than guarantees of market value or future value.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from the services.

My total liability for any claim relating to the services will not exceed the amount you paid me for the services giving rise to that claim.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California.

Changes to these terms

The terms that apply to your engagement are the terms in effect when you book your service.
