Ethics & Integrity
Confidentiality
Information provided to us in connection with an engagement is available only to the personnel assigned to it. We do not disclose such information to any third party unless the client authorizes it or the law requires it.
Conflicts of interest
Before accepting an engagement, we assess whether it conflicts with the interests of another client or of Konsalta. Where a conflict exists, we disclose it promptly and either manage it transparently or decline the engagement.
Independence
We do not accept commissions, referral payments, or gifts that could influence our recommendations. Any financial interest we hold in a matter on which we advise is disclosed to the client in advance.
Competence
We accept only those engagements that fall within our expertise. Where a matter requires specialist knowledge that we do not hold, we will say so and refer the client to an appropriate professional.
Reporting a concern
Any person who believes that Konsalta has failed to meet these standards may write to us. The concern will be reviewed by a senior member of the firm who was not involved in the engagement, and a response will be provided within [number] working days.

Terms of Engagement
Each engagement is agreed in writing before work begins, so that both parties understand its scope and their respective responsibilities.
Scope of services
Each engagement is defined in a written proposal or confirmation that sets out the services to be provided, the expected deliverables, and the timeline. Work outside that scope requires the client’s written approval.
Responsibilities of the client
The client undertakes to provide timely access to the information, personnel, and decisions that Konsalta reasonably requires. Delays on the part of the client may affect the timeline of the engagement.
Confidentiality and ownership
Each party shall keep the other’s confidential information private. Unless the written proposal provides otherwise, the client owns the final deliverables, and Konsalta retains ownership of its pre-existing methods, tools, and know-how.
Termination
Either party may end an engagement by giving written notice within reasonable timelines. Obligations of confidentiality continue after termination.
Governing law
These terms are governed by legal laws, and any dispute arising from them shall be submitted to the courts of law.
Enquiries
Any question regarding these terms should be directed to us before an engagement is confirmed.
