Terms of Service
Last updated: March 2026
1. Scope of Services
We provide custom software development, technical consulting, and digital solution services for businesses. Our offerings include, but are not limited to, full-stack web and mobile application development, cloud infrastructure architecture, API design and integration, database engineering, and ongoing technical advisory. The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and budget for each engagement are defined in individual project proposals or statements of work (SOW) agreed upon in writing by both parties prior to commencement of work.
2. Project Engagement and Acceptance
Each project engagement begins with a written proposal or statement of work that outlines the project scope, milestones, acceptance criteria, estimated timeline, and pricing. Work commences only upon written acceptance of the proposal by the client. Deliverables are subject to acceptance testing based on the criteria defined in the SOW. The client has fourteen (14) business days after delivery of each milestone to review and either accept the deliverable or provide written feedback specifying how it does not meet the agreed acceptance criteria. If no feedback is received within this period, the deliverable is deemed accepted.
3. Intellectual Property
Upon full payment of all invoices related to a project, all intellectual property rights in the custom-developed work product transfer to the client, unless otherwise specified in the statement of work. We retain the right to use general knowledge, techniques, and experience gained during the engagement for future projects. Where open source software or third-party libraries are incorporated into deliverables, such components remain subject to their respective licenses. We will disclose all material third-party dependencies and their license terms prior to or upon delivery. Pre-existing intellectual property that we bring into a project remains our property, with a perpetual, non-exclusive license granted to the client for use within the delivered project.
4. Payment Terms
Payment terms are specified in each statement of work. Unless otherwise agreed, projects are billed on a milestone basis with invoices due within fourteen (14) days of issuance. For ongoing retainer or time-and-materials engagements, invoices are issued monthly. All prices are quoted in euros (EUR) and are exclusive of applicable value-added tax (VAT). Late payments are subject to statutory default interest under German law (currently 9 percentage points above the base rate for commercial transactions, per Section 288(2) BGB). We reserve the right to suspend work on a project if invoices remain unpaid for more than thirty (30) days past their due date.
5. Confidentiality
Both parties agree to treat all non-public business information, technical documentation, source code, trade secrets, and project details disclosed during the engagement as strictly confidential. This obligation applies during the engagement and for a period of three (3) years following its conclusion. Confidential information may only be shared with employees or subcontractors who require access to perform their duties and who are bound by equivalent confidentiality obligations. This duty of confidentiality does not apply to information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving party, was already known to the receiving party prior to disclosure, or is required to be disclosed by law or court order.
6. Warranty and Support
We commit to performing all services with reasonable professional skill and care, following industry-standard development practices including code review, testing, and documentation. We do not guarantee specific business outcomes, performance metrics, or commercial success of the delivered software. For a period of sixty (60) days following final acceptance of a deliverable, we will correct, at no additional charge, any defects that cause the software to fail to conform to the agreed acceptance criteria. This warranty does not cover issues arising from modifications made by the client or third parties, use of the software outside its intended operating environment, or requirements not specified in the original SOW.
7. Limitation of Liability
Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising from or related to an engagement shall not exceed the total fees actually paid by the client for that specific engagement. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. These limitations do not apply to liability for intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
8. Termination
Either party may terminate an engagement by providing thirty (30) days written notice. In the event of termination, the client shall pay for all work completed and accepted up to the date of termination, plus any non-cancellable third-party costs incurred on the client's behalf. Upon termination, we will provide an orderly handover of all work product completed to date, including source code, documentation, and access credentials. In case of material breach by either party, the non-breaching party may terminate immediately upon written notice if the breach remains uncured for fifteen (15) days following written notification of the breach.
9. Non-Solicitation
During the term of an engagement and for twelve (12) months following its conclusion, neither party shall directly solicit or attempt to hire any employee or contractor of the other party who was materially involved in the engagement, without prior written consent. This clause does not restrict either party from hiring individuals who respond to general public job advertisements not specifically targeted at the other party's personnel.
10. Contact Form and Communication
When you submit an inquiry through our contact form, the information you provide (name, email address, company, message content) is stored and processed solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry and for follow-up communication related to potential or existing engagements. Your data is not shared with third parties without your explicit consent. You may request deletion of your contact data at any time by writing to us. For detailed information about data processing, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
11. Newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use your email address to send you periodic updates about our services, technical insights, and industry news. Subscription is voluntary and based on your explicit consent. Every newsletter contains an unsubscribe link that allows you to withdraw your consent and stop receiving communications at any time. Upon unsubscription, your email address is promptly removed from our mailing list.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These terms of service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these terms is the registered seat of our company, insofar as the client is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a public-law special fund. We reserve the right to update these terms of service. The current version published on this website applies. Clients will be notified of material changes to terms affecting active engagements.
