Terms & Conditions

1. Introduction

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of Devaumark's website and services. By engaging with our services, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

2. Client Content & Backups

• All site content (text, images, video, and other media) is the client's responsibility to provide prior to project commencement.
• The client is solely responsible for taking complete backups of existing site content before Devaumark begins work. Devaumark is not responsible for any loss or damage to pre-existing data.

3. Intellectual Property & Permissions

• The client retains copyright to materials they provide (data, files, logos).
• The client warrants they have the rights and permissions to use supplied materials and will indemnify and hold Devaumark harmless against claims arising from insufficient permissions.
• Unless otherwise agreed, any artwork, images, or text supplied and/or designed by Devaumark remains the property of Devaumark and/or its suppliers until full payment, after which final deliverables transfer to the client.
• Devaumark retains ownership of proprietary tools, frameworks, and libraries used in delivery.
• Devaumark may showcase completed work in portfolios and marketing. If the client requires confidentiality, they must notify Devaumark in advance.

4. Approvals, Delivery & Acceptance

• Projects progress in stages. Each subsequent stage starts after sign-off and settlement of agreed payments for the prior stage.
• On completion, drafts or staging versions will be provided for review. The client has 7 days to provide feedback; otherwise, the work is deemed accepted.
• Upon approval, the website is deployed to the destination server. Devaumark may delay deployment until full payment is received.
• All code and materials are transferred after final sign-off and settlement. Code ownership resides with the client after final payment, subject to third‑party licenses.

5. Timelines & Dependencies

While we strive to meet estimated timelines, unforeseen circumstances (deployment issues, third‑party dependencies, resource unavailability, emergencies, or communication delays) may require adjustments.

6. Payments, Pricing & Cancellations

• Payments may be made via bank transfer or other methods agreed in writing. We may change available payment methods and pricing without prior notice.
• A cancellation fee may apply if the service is canceled before completion, equivalent to the work completed up to cancellation.
• Non-payment of cancellation fees or overdue amounts may result in legal action.
• The client must pay fees by agreed due dates without deductions or set‑offs.

7. Support & Third‑Party Services

• Post‑launch, we provide 1 month of free support limited to bug fixes and email support. Architecture changes, new features, or enhancements are out of scope.
• Licensing, payments, and compliance for third‑party products/services are the client's responsibility or can be procured by Devaumark on pre‑payment.
• No warranties are provided for third‑party products/services or their performance.
• Upgrades to third‑party products/services are not included and may require a separate estimate.

8. Changes, Re‑work & Enhancements

• Features not included in the agreed scope will follow a change management process and be billed additionally. Scope changes after wireframe sign‑off will impact cost and timelines.
• Minor tweaks are often accommodated, but repeated or out‑of‑scope changes may be billed at business rates (typically US $15–$20/hour).
• Any re‑work or changes requested after approval or progression to the next project stage will be billed as add‑ons.

9. Post‑Deployment Changes

Devaumark is not responsible for issues arising from client or third‑party alterations (including additions, modifications, or deletions) after deployment. Remediation may incur a one‑off development charge.

10. Confidentiality

We maintain strict confidentiality regarding client information and project details. Proprietary information shared during our engagement will not be disclosed to third parties without consent, except as required by law.

11. Limitation of Liability

• We use reasonable skill and care in providing services but make no warranties as to availability, quality, accuracy, timeliness, completeness, performance, or fitness.
• We are not liable for loss or damage caused by inaccuracies, omissions, delays, or errors, whether due to negligence or otherwise; or for loss/damage to client materials supplied for the site.
• Except for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, or consequential damages, including loss of profit or third‑party claims.
• We cannot guarantee services provided by third parties and are not liable for their failures.

12. Termination

Either party may terminate with written notice. Upon termination, the client remains responsible for payment of completed work and any outstanding balances.

13. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts of India have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from or in connection with these terms.

14. Severability

If any provision is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force. The invalid provision will be replaced by a valid one that most closely reflects the parties' original intent.
