Group office/client counts are not a confirmed EOR-country list; upgrade from initial light inventory to focused multi-country research.

Terms exclusion
All six pages of Acclime corporate general terms CSGTC-V2/2025(1)-06 were visually read after automated text extraction failed. Definition22(f), printed page5/PDFpage6, expressly EXCLUDES professional employer organisation/employer of record services. Corporate-services liability caps, payment/termination/non-solicitation clauses therefore cannot be attributed to an EOR contract. EOR-specific terms, liability/IP, transfer rights and notice commitments remain unavailable.
