These Terms and Conditions ("Terms," "Agreement") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and SWPPP Hub ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), the owner and operator of www.swppphub.com (the "Site"). By accessing, browsing, or submitting any form on this Site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE USE OF THIS SITE.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes are effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

2. Nature of the Site — Lead Generation and Referral Platform

2.1 Site is a Lead Generation Platform

SWPPP Hub is a lead generation and referral platform only. The Site is designed to connect individuals and organizations requiring Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) consulting, NPDES permit compliance, Best Management Practices (BMP) planning, industrial stormwater permitting, construction general permit (CGP) compliance, and related environmental services ("Environmental Services") with independent, third-party licensed environmental consultants, engineers, or compliance specialists ("Service Partners" or "Contractors").

2.2 SWPPP Hub is NOT a Licensed Environmental Consulting Firm

SWPPP Hub does not provide environmental consulting services, engineering services, legal advice, or regulatory compliance advice. We do not prepare SWPPPs, file NOIs, conduct site inspections, or offer professional opinions on stormwater compliance. Nothing on this Site constitutes professional engineering, environmental consulting, or legal advice.

2.3 No Contractor-Client Relationship

Your submission of a form or inquiry on this Site does not create any contractor-client, consultant-client, attorney-client, or fiduciary relationship between you and SWPPP Hub. Any such relationship, if established, will be solely between you and the independent Service Partner you ultimately engage.

2.4 No Guarantee of Service or Contact

Submission of an inquiry does not guarantee that you will receive a response, quote, or connection to a Service Partner. SWPPP Hub does not guarantee availability of Service Partners in your area or for your project type.

3. Consent to Be Contacted

BY SUBMITTING ANY FORM ON THIS SITE, YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE AND CONSENT TO:

Being contacted by SWPPP Hub and/or its Service Partners via telephone (including cellular), email, and/or SMS text message, including via automated dialing technology or prerecorded voice messages, regarding your inquiry and related environmental compliance services;
Such contact even if your phone number appears on a state or national Do-Not-Call registry;
The sharing of your submitted contact information and project details with one or more third-party Service Partners.

This consent is given pursuant to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), 47 U.S.C. § 227, and applicable state regulations. Consent is not a condition of purchase.
