Simple site terms.

This is an early-stage informational website. It does not sell services, take payment or create a client relationship. If paid work is offered later, separate written terms will apply.

Important: sending an enquiry does not create a client, advisory or professional-services relationship or commit either side to anything.

Operator

This website is run by Patrick Buckingham in New Zealand as an early-stage project called HappyCustomers. In these terms, “HappyCustomers”, “we” and “us” refer to Patrick in connection with this website.

What this site does

The website introduces an early-stage customer-journey and relationship-leakage concept. Examples and pathways are illustrative. They are not findings about your organisation, professional advice, or a promise of improved retention, revenue or another result. Any real conclusion must be tested against relevant customer and company evidence.

Enquiries

You may email Patrick to discuss the project or share an enquiry. He may respond, decline or defer. No service is offered or supplied through this website. Before any future substantive or paid work begins, the parties must separately agree its scope, responsibilities, fees, confidentiality, data use, intellectual property, timing and cancellation terms in writing.

Your use of the website

You may view the website and share its public link. Please do not misuse the website, interfere with its operation, or reproduce substantial content for commercial use without permission. Content remains owned by or licensed to its respective owner.

External services and legal rights

The website may link to or use third-party services such as email and hosting. Their own terms may also apply. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights or obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded under New Zealand law.
