Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Techaft website and, unless a signed agreement says otherwise, the services we provide. By browsing this site or engaging us, you accept these terms.
Where you have signed a separate master services agreement or statement of work with us, that document takes precedence over these terms for anything it covers.
Our services
Techaft designs and builds software: web platforms, mobile applications, cloud and DevOps infrastructure, AI systems, and product design. The precise scope, deliverables, timeline and price of any engagement are defined in a written proposal or statement of work ("SOW") agreed by both parties.
Anything on this website — including case studies, service descriptions and indicative figures — is for information only and is not a binding offer.
Proposals and engagement
Estimates are valid for 30 days unless stated otherwise and are based on the information available at the time. An engagement begins when you accept a SOW in writing and, where applicable, the initial payment clears.
Work outside the agreed scope is handled through a written change request setting out the impact on cost and schedule. We will not proceed with additional work until it is approved.
Fees, invoicing and payment
- Fees, currency, milestones and billing cadence are set out in the SOW.
- Invoices are payable within 14 days of issue unless agreed otherwise.
- Quoted amounts exclude VAT, sales tax, bank charges and third-party costs such as licences, hosting and app-store fees, which are billed at cost.
- Overdue invoices may accrue interest at the statutory rate, and we may pause work after written notice until the balance is settled.
- Deposits and payments for work already delivered are non-refundable.
Your responsibilities
Delivery depends on timely input from you. You agree to:
- Provide accurate requirements, content, assets and credentials when needed.
- Nominate a decision-maker who can approve work and respond to queries.
- Review deliverables and give consolidated feedback within agreed review windows.
- Hold the rights to any material you supply, and ensure it does not infringe third-party rights or applicable law.
Delays caused by outstanding approvals, access or content may shift the schedule and, for extended delays, the price.
Intellectual property
Deliverables. On full payment, ownership of the custom deliverables produced specifically for you under a SOW transfers to you.
Our background IP. We retain ownership of everything we bring to the engagement — internal libraries, tooling, frameworks, methods and know-how — and grant you a perpetual, non-exclusive licence to use it to the extent it is embedded in your deliverables.
Third-party and open-source components. Deliverables may include components licensed by others; those remain governed by their own licences, which we will identify on request.
The website. The Techaft name, logo, copy, designs and code on this site are ours and may not be copied or reused without written permission.
Portfolio. Unless you tell us otherwise in writing, we may reference your project and display non-confidential visuals in our portfolio.
Confidentiality
Each party will keep the other's non-public information confidential, use it only to perform the engagement, and protect it with at least reasonable care. This does not apply to information that is public through no fault of the receiving party, was already known to it, or must be disclosed by law — in which case the other party is notified where permitted. These obligations survive the end of the engagement.
Acceptable use of this website
You agree not to:
- Probe, scan or attempt to breach the security of the site or its infrastructure.
- Scrape, mirror or systematically extract content without permission.
- Submit unlawful, misleading, infringing or malicious material through our forms.
- Interfere with the availability of the site for other users.
We may restrict access where we reasonably believe these rules have been broken.
Warranties and disclaimers
We warrant that our services are performed with reasonable skill and care by suitably qualified people. Where a SOW includes a defect-correction period, we will fix reproducible defects in the delivered work at no cost during that period.
Beyond that, the website and its content are provided "as is". We do not warrant that software will be uninterrupted or entirely error-free, and we are not responsible for issues caused by changes we did not make, third-party services, or use outside the intended scope.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, data or goodwill arising from the engagement.
Our total aggregate liability in connection with an engagement is limited to the fees paid to us under the relevant SOW in the twelve months before the claim arose.
Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Term and termination
Either party may terminate an engagement on 30 days' written notice, or immediately if the other commits a material breach that is not remedied within 14 days of notice. On termination you pay for all work performed and costs committed up to that date, and we hand over the completed deliverables and any accesses that belong to you.
Third-party services
Projects often rely on services we do not control — cloud providers, payment processors, APIs and app stores. Their availability, pricing and terms are their own, and we are not liable for changes they make. We will always tell you which dependencies a solution introduces.
Changes to these terms
We may revise these terms from time to time. The version published here, with the revision date shown above, is the one that applies. Changes do not alter the terms of a SOW already in progress unless both parties agree in writing.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Techaft is established, and the courts of that jurisdiction have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute. Before starting proceedings, both parties agree to attempt to resolve the matter in good faith within 30 days of written notice.
