Terms of Service.

1. About these Terms

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the Saldorite Technologies website and any services, software, applications, platforms or digital solutions provided by Saldorite Technologies ("Saldorite", "we", "us" or "our").

By accessing our website or engaging with our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Our Services

Saldorite Technologies provides technology and software development services, which may include:

• Custom software development
• Web application development
• Mobile application development
• Digital product development
• Business systems and platforms
• Automation and AI solutions
• System integrations
• Digital transformation services
• Technology consulting and related services

The specific services, deliverables, timelines, pricing and responsibilities for a particular project may be defined in a separate proposal, quotation, statement of work, service agreement or other written agreement.

3. Project Engagements

Where you engage Saldorite to develop or provide a specific solution, the scope of work will generally be agreed upon before development begins.

Changes to an agreed scope may affect project timelines, resources and fees. Additional work outside the agreed scope may therefore require separate approval and pricing.

4. Client Responsibilities

Clients are responsible for providing accurate information, materials, access credentials, approvals and other resources reasonably required for us to perform the agreed services.

Delays caused by missing information, delayed approvals, unavailable systems or other client-side dependencies may affect project timelines.

5. Payments and Fees

Fees and payment terms will be communicated through the applicable quotation, proposal, invoice or service agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, services may be subject to payment requirements before development, delivery, deployment or continued support.

Additional work, changes to scope, third-party services or other expenses not included in the original agreement may incur additional charges.

6. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Saldorite retains ownership of its pre-existing frameworks, reusable components, libraries, development methods, tools, templates, know-how and other intellectual property used in delivering services.

Ownership or licensing of project-specific deliverables will be determined by the applicable agreement between Saldorite and the client.

Clients must not reproduce, redistribute, resell or otherwise exploit Saldorite's proprietary materials without appropriate authorization.

7. Third-Party Services

Certain solutions may rely on third-party services, technologies, APIs, hosting providers, payment processors, mapping services, communication services or other external platforms.

Third-party services may have their own terms, fees, availability requirements and privacy policies. Saldorite is not responsible for circumstances outside its reasonable control arising from third-party services.

8. Website Use

You agree to use the Saldorite website lawfully and responsibly.

You must not:

• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems.
• Interfere with the operation or security of the website.
• Introduce malicious code, malware or harmful material.
• Use the website for unlawful or fraudulent purposes.
• Copy or misuse our intellectual property without permission.
• Attempt to disrupt services or infrastructure.

9. Availability and Changes

We aim to keep our website and services available and functional, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

We may update, modify, suspend or discontinue parts of the website or our services where reasonably necessary, including for maintenance, security, improvements or business reasons.

10. Accuracy of Information

We aim to provide accurate and useful information on our website. However, website content may occasionally contain errors, omissions or information that becomes outdated.

Website information should not be interpreted as a guarantee that a particular product, service, feature or outcome will always be available or suitable for a particular purpose.

11. Confidentiality

Where we receive confidential business, technical or commercial information from a client, we will take reasonable steps to protect that information and use it only for legitimate business or project purposes.

Specific confidentiality obligations may also be established through a separate confidentiality agreement or service agreement.

12. Data Protection and Privacy

Your use of our website may involve the processing of personal information. Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.

By using our website or communicating with us, you acknowledge that your information may be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws.

13. Warranties and Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, our website and general informational content are provided on an "as available" basis.

Project-specific warranties, service levels or performance commitments will be governed by the applicable written agreement.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Saldorite Technologies will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential or special losses arising from the use of our website or services.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

15. Indemnity

Where permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold Saldorite Technologies harmless from claims, losses or liabilities arising from your unlawful use of our website, violation of these Terms or infringement of another party's rights.

16. Termination

We may restrict or terminate access to certain services where reasonably necessary, including where there has been a serious breach of these Terms, misuse of our systems, non-payment or unlawful activity.

Termination of a particular project or service may additionally be governed by the applicable client agreement.

17. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, unless another jurisdiction is expressly agreed in a written agreement between the parties.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to our services, business practices, technology or legal requirements.

The latest version will be made available on this website. Continued use of the website following an update constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by law.
