Terms for using this site.
These are the terms for reading this website and sending us an enquiry. They are not the terms of an engagement. That is a separate agreement you sign, and where the two disagree, the agreement wins.

Who we are
This site is operated by Salto Strategic Advisors, LLC, a limited liability company formed in North Carolina. We are an advisory firm. We are not a software company, and there is no product here to subscribe to.
Two people run it, Nichole and Steve DiPippo, and the work is remote. There is no office to visit and no third party answering for us.
What this page is, and is not
By using this site you accept these terms. They cover the site itself: the pages, the copy, the calculator, the contact form and the client portal.
They are not the agreement under which we do work. Every engagement starts with a written agreement signed by both sides, which sets the fee, the deliverables, the timeline, confidentiality, ownership and liability. Nothing on this site amends it, and nothing on this site is an offer capable of acceptance. A price shown here is an indication of our standard fee, not a quote.
What the word “audit” means here
“Salto Audit” is the name of a service we sell. It does not mean an audit, review, compilation, examination or any other attestation engagement performed under generally accepted auditing standards or any other professional attestation standard. We express no opinion on any financial statement.
We are not a certified public accounting firm, a law firm, a registered investment adviser or a broker-dealer. Nothing we publish or provide is accounting, tax, legal or investment advice, and you should get that advice from a qualified professional. We are an independent adviser and owe you no fiduciary duty.
The calculator, and any figure on this site
The calculator on the homepage multiplies two numbers you choose yourself. It is an illustration of your own estimate and not a finding about your business, we do not see what you enter, and nothing about it is a projection of what working with us would save you.
Descriptions of past work describe what we did, not what you would get. We do not guarantee any financial or operational outcome, and decisions you make after reading anything here are yours.
Using the site
You agree not to:
- try to reach any part of the client portal, or any client's data, that you are not authorised to see;
- probe, scan or interfere with the site or the systems behind it, or get around any access control;
- use automated means to scrape it or to submit the contact form;
- impersonate someone else in an enquiry, or send us material you do not have the right to send.
If you are a client using the portal, keep your sign-in link to yourself. A sign-in link is a credential.
What you send us
Send an enquiry and you confirm what is in it is accurate and yours to send. An enquiry is not confidential and does not create a client relationship. We read them, but do not send us anything sensitive before we have an agreement in place. Documents you upload as a client are a different thing entirely, and are covered by the confidentiality section of your agreement.
Who owns what is on this page
The copy, design, marks, logo and the Salto method described here belong to Salto Strategic Advisors, LLC. “Salto”, “The Salto Audit”, “The Salto Structure”, “The Salto Assistant”, “Salto Launch”, “Salto Own”, “Salto Care” and the vaulter mark are ours. You may read, quote briefly with attribution, and link to any of it. You may not republish it as your own or use our marks in a way that suggests we endorse you.
Photographs of the founders are ours. The brand identity was designed for us by Vivid Thistle Studio. The two typefaces used for text are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, and that licence travels with them.
Links out
Where we link somewhere else, whether a founder's LinkedIn profile or a course we think is better for you than we would be, we do not control it and do not take responsibility for what is there.
Disclaimer and liability
This site is provided as it is. We try to keep it accurate and available and we do not promise either. We may change or remove anything on it, including a price, at any time.
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable to you for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue or business opportunity, arising out of your use of this site. Where we have an engagement agreement with you, the liability terms in it govern the work and set the cap.
None of this limits liability for fraud, wilful misconduct or gross negligence, or anything else that cannot be limited by law.
Governing law
North Carolina law governs these terms, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The state and federal courts sitting in Wake County, North Carolina have exclusive jurisdiction, and by using this site you consent to venue there.
Changes to these terms
We may update them, and the date at the top moves when we do. This version is dated 17 September 2026. If any part is unenforceable the rest stays in force.
If something on this page contradicts an agreement you have signed with us, the agreement governs. Tell us, because one of the two is wrong and we want to know which.
