Terms & Conditions

The terms that govern your use of the Meera Consulting website and the general basis on which we deliver our services.

Last updated: 15 July 2026

About these terms

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the meeraconsulting.com website (the "Website") and set out the general basis on which Meera Consulting provides its services. By accessing the Website, submitting an enquiry, or engaging us for any service, you agree to these Terms.

If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, please do not use the Website or our services.

Who we are

Meera Consulting is a multi-disciplinary consulting firm headquartered in Hyderabad, Telangana, India, with a presence in Manchester, United Kingdom. We provide four service lines: Website Design & Development, Digital Marketing, HR Services & Recruitment, and Overseas Education guidance.

Use of this Website

You may browse the Website, read our content, apply for advertised roles, and contact us for genuine business, career, or education enquiries. You agree not to misuse the Website — including attempting to gain unauthorised access, scraping content at scale, submitting false or misleading information through our forms, or using the Website in any way that breaches applicable law.

Website content is provided for general information only. While we keep it accurate and current to the best of our ability, it does not constitute professional, legal, financial, or immigration advice, and should not be relied on as such without speaking to us directly.

Services and engagements

Every client engagement — whether website design, digital marketing, HR & recruitment, or overseas education support — is governed by its own written proposal, agreement, or statement of work. Where a signed agreement exists, its specific terms take precedence over these general Terms.

Timelines, deliverables, and outcomes discussed on the Website or in early conversations are indicative until confirmed in writing. Results in areas such as search rankings, marketing performance, hiring timelines, university admissions, and visa decisions depend on factors outside our control, and we do not guarantee specific outcomes unless expressly agreed in writing.

Careers, applications and recruitment

Job applications submitted through our Careers pages are used solely to evaluate your candidacy for current or future roles. Submitting an application does not create an employment relationship or guarantee an interview or offer.

Meera Consulting never charges candidates a fee at any stage of recruitment — no application fees, interview fees, offer-processing fees, or security deposits. All genuine recruitment communication comes from our official channels. If you receive a suspicious offer claiming to be from us, please read our Recruitment Fraud Alert and report it before acting on it.

Payments and fees

Fees for client services are set out in the applicable proposal or agreement, along with invoicing schedules and payment terms. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are payable by the due date stated on the invoice, and work may be paused on accounts with overdue balances.

We only collect payments through the bank accounts and payment channels named in our written agreements or invoices. We will never ask you to transfer money to an individual or to a personal account, and we will never change our banking details by email alone. If you receive a payment request that looks unusual — a new account, an urgent deadline, a different name — stop and call us on a number published on this website before acting on it.

Third-party costs are separate from our fees unless your agreement states otherwise. Advertising spend, hosting, domains, licences, university application fees and government charges are paid by you to those providers directly or recharged at cost without markup, as specified in your agreement.

Your responsibilities

Our work depends on what you give us. You agree to provide accurate information, supply content, access, approvals and feedback within the timeframes we agree, and to nominate someone empowered to make decisions on your behalf. Where we need access to your systems, accounts or premises, you are responsible for arranging it.

You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of material you ask us to publish or act on — including claims about your business, imagery and content you supply, and the personal data of any individual you share with us. You confirm you have the right to provide us with everything you provide.

Timelines assume timely input from you. Where a project stalls awaiting your feedback, materials or approvals, agreed delivery dates move accordingly, and extended delays may affect the fees or availability of the team assigned to your work.

Changes, cancellation and refunds

Either party may end an engagement in line with the notice terms in the applicable agreement. On termination, fees for work completed and costs already committed on your behalf up to that date remain payable, and we will hand over deliverables produced and paid for.

Because our services are delivered as professional time rather than as a returnable product, fees for work already performed are generally non-refundable. Where you have paid in advance for work not yet started, we will refund the unused portion less any costs already committed. Third-party costs already spent — advertising, university application fees, government charges, licences — cannot be recovered by us and are not refundable.

Requests that materially change the agreed scope may require a revised proposal, timeline and fee. We will always tell you before scope changes affect cost, never after.

Terms specific to each service

Website design & development — Deliverables, revision rounds and browser or device support are defined in your proposal. Ownership of the work we create for you typically transfers on full payment. You are responsible for hosting, domain and third-party licence costs unless your agreement includes them, and for the content and claims you ask us to publish. Post-launch support is limited to what your agreement specifies; ongoing maintenance is a separate arrangement.

Digital marketing — Advertising spend is paid by you to the platforms directly and is not our fee. We do not control search engine or platform algorithms, ranking outcomes, ad costs, or changes in platform policy, and performance can move for reasons entirely outside our work. Reporting is provided at the frequency agreed. Where we manage accounts on your behalf, you own those accounts and retain access to them.

HR services & recruitment — Placement fees, replacement guarantees and their qualifying conditions are set out in your client agreement. Candidate suitability is assessed in good faith on the information available; final hiring decisions, employment terms and statutory compliance as employer remain yours. Candidates are never charged a fee by us at any stage.

Overseas education — We provide guidance, application support and documentation assistance. We are not an admissions body and we are not an immigration authority. Admission decisions rest with universities and visa decisions rest with governments; neither can be guaranteed by us, and our fee reflects the work performed rather than the outcome achieved. University application fees, test fees, blocked-account deposits and government charges are paid by you directly to those bodies.

Confidentiality

Both parties will treat non-public information disclosed during an engagement — commercial plans, data, pricing, candidate details and technical material — as confidential, and use it only to deliver or receive the services. This obligation continues after the engagement ends.

It does not apply to information that is already public, that a party holds independently, or that must be disclosed by law or a competent authority. Where a client engagement is sensitive, we will agree in writing not to reference it in our portfolio or case studies.

Portfolio, testimonials and publicity

Unless your agreement says otherwise, we may reference our work for you in our portfolio, case studies and marketing — including your name, logo and screenshots of public-facing work we produced. We will not disclose confidential commercial details, and we will withdraw a reference on written request.

Where you provide a testimonial or review, you agree we may publish it alongside your name and role. Reviews and testimonials on this website reflect the views of the individuals who gave them.

Events outside our control

Neither party is liable for failure or delay in performing its obligations where the cause is beyond its reasonable control — including natural events, epidemics, war or civil unrest, industrial action, failures of power, internet or third-party platforms, and changes in law, government policy or immigration rules.

Where such an event materially affects an engagement, we will tell you promptly and work with you to agree a revised timeline or, if it cannot reasonably continue, a fair way to close it out.

Intellectual property

The Website and its content — including the Meera Consulting name, logo, text, graphics, page designs, and imagery we created — are owned by or licensed to Meera Consulting. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from this content without our prior written permission, except for fair personal, non-commercial use.

Intellectual property created for clients during an engagement (for example, a website or campaign assets) is handled per the terms of that engagement — typically transferring to the client on full payment, while we retain the right to showcase the work in our portfolio unless agreed otherwise.

Privacy and personal data

When you contact us, apply for a role, or engage our services, we collect the personal information you provide (such as your name, contact details, and resume) and use it only to respond to your enquiry, evaluate your application, or deliver the agreed services. We do not sell your personal information.

To ask about the data we hold about you, or to request its correction or deletion, contact us using the details at the end of these Terms.

Cookies and analytics

The Website uses cookies and similar technologies so it functions correctly and to help us understand how visitors use our pages. This includes analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) that report aggregated, non-identifying statistics — for example, which pages are viewed most — so we can keep improving the site.

Most browsers let you control or block cookies through their settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Website work. By continuing to use the Website, you consent to our use of cookies as described here.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Meera Consulting is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the Website, from decisions made in reliance on its general content, or from events beyond our reasonable control. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time as our services and legal obligations evolve. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the current version. Continued use of the Website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, and the courts of Hyderabad, Telangana have jurisdiction over disputes arising from them — except where a written client agreement specifies otherwise (for example, engagements contracted through our UK presence).

Terms FAQ

Questions people actually ask

The Terms above are the authoritative version. This is the same ground in plain language — if the two ever seem to disagree, the numbered sections govern.

No — it is the other way round. These Terms are the general baseline governing the website and our services. Where you have a signed proposal, agreement or statement of work, its specific terms take precedence over anything here that conflicts with it. These Terms fill the gaps; they do not overwrite what we agreed with you in writing.
