Development Terms

This master service agreement governs the provision of software development services to institutional or enterprise clients. By engaging in these services, clients agree to the terms outlined herein.

Scope

Development work covers the deliverables, timeline, and responsibilities agreed before work begins. Any material change to scope, priorities, integrations, content, or design may require a revised estimate or schedule.

Client Responsibilities

The client is responsible for providing accurate requirements, timely feedback, necessary access, brand assets, account credentials, third-party service approvals, and any content needed to complete the work.

Delays in providing required information, access, or approvals may affect delivery dates.

Payment

Fees, milestones, payment methods, and due dates are agreed before work begins. Work may be paused when invoices are overdue.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, third-party costs such as hosting, domains, paid APIs, software licenses, asset licenses, or app store fees are billed separately or paid directly by the client.

Revisions

Reasonable revisions are included when they are within the agreed scope. Requests that introduce new functionality, new pages, new workflows, or major design changes may be treated as additional work.

Ownership

After full payment, the client owns the custom deliverables created specifically for the project, excluding pre-existing tools, libraries, templates, frameworks, open-source dependencies, internal utilities, and third-party assets.

Portfolio use may be retained unless otherwise agreed.

Maintenance

Ongoing maintenance, monitoring, hosting support, bug fixes, and feature updates are not included unless explicitly agreed.

Changes

These terms may be updated from time to time. The terms in effect when work is accepted apply to that work unless otherwise agreed upon.
