Terms of
Service.
Our Services
Devvista provides custom software development, AI automation, SaaS development, CRM development, UI/UX design, eCommerce development, WordPress development, SEO, and dedicated development team services.
All engagements are governed by a separate written agreement (Statement of Work or Project Proposal). These Terms cover your general relationship with Devvista and use of this website. In case of conflict, the specific project agreement takes precedence.
Client Engagements
All projects are formalised through a written proposal or Statement of Work defining scope, timeline, deliverables, and pricing. Work begins only after both parties sign the relevant documents.
Clients are responsible for:
- Providing accurate requirements and timely feedback
- Supplying assets, access credentials, and third-party licences required for the project
- Designating a point of contact with authority to approve deliverables
- Reviewing and approving work within agreed timeframes — client delays may affect timelines and costs
Devvista reserves the right to decline or terminate any engagement that conflicts with our values or legal obligations.
Payments & Fees
Payment terms are defined in each project agreement. General defaults unless otherwise agreed:
- A deposit of 30–50% is required before work starts
- Milestone payments are due on completion of defined milestones
- Final payment is due before final delivery and asset transfer
- Invoices are due within 14 days of issue
Late payments may incur 1.5% monthly interest on the outstanding balance. Devvista may pause work on projects with overdue invoices. All prices are in USD and exclude applicable taxes.
Intellectual Property
Upon full payment, all custom code, designs, and deliverables created specifically for the client are assigned to the client. You own your project.
The following remain Devvista's property unless explicitly agreed otherwise:
- Pre-existing libraries, frameworks, and tools used in the project
- General-purpose modules and UI components developed independently
- Internal processes, methodologies, and templates
Devvista retains the right to display work in our portfolio unless the client requests otherwise in writing. A signed NDA supersedes this right.
Confidentiality
Both parties agree to treat as confidential any non-public information shared during an engagement — including business strategies, technical specs, client data, and pricing. A formal NDA is available on request before any discovery conversation.
Warranties & Disclaimers
Devvista warrants that services will be performed with reasonable skill and that deliverables will materially conform to agreed specifications at delivery.
Devvista does not warrant that software will be entirely bug-free, that third-party services will remain available, or that SEO/marketing services will achieve specific rankings or revenue targets.
The website devvista.org is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Devvista's total liability for any claim shall not exceed the total fees paid for the relevant project in the 12 months preceding the claim.
Devvista shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages including loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption.
Termination
Either party may terminate a project with 14 days' written notice. On termination:
- The client pays for all work completed up to the termination date
- Devvista delivers completed work and assets upon receipt of final payment
- Deposits are non-refundable unless Devvista is in material breach
Devvista may terminate immediately without notice for fraudulent, illegal, or abusive conduct.
Website Use
You may use devvista.org for lawful purposes only. You agree not to attempt unauthorised access, transmit malicious code or spam, or scrape or reproduce site content without written permission.
All content on this site — text, graphics, logos, and code — is the property of Devvista and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Devvista is registered. Disputes that cannot be resolved amicably are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that jurisdiction.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms at any time. Updates will be reflected by a revised date on this page. Continued use of our site or services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance. For active engagements, the terms in place at signing apply unless both parties agree in writing to updated terms.
