Terms of Service

Dastute Technologies provides technology consulting, software engineering, blockchain development, cybersecurity, cloud services, brand strategy, identity design, and marketing services ("Services").

Specific services, deliverables, timelines and fees will be agreed in a separate Statement of Work ("SOW") or engagement letter, which forms part of these Terms. In the event of conflict between these Terms and an SOW, the SOW shall prevail.

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, design elements, code, and documentation — is the property of Dastute Technologies Limited or its licensors, and is protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws.

Upon full payment for Services, intellectual property rights in bespoke deliverables created exclusively for the Client shall transfer to the Client, unless otherwise specified in the applicable SOW.

Pre-existing intellectual property, methodologies, frameworks and tools developed by Dastute Technologies remain our property. We grant the Client a non-exclusive, perpetual licence to use such materials as incorporated into deliverables.

Fees for Services are set out in the applicable SOW. Unless otherwise agreed:

• →Invoices are payable within 30 days of issue.
• →All fees are quoted in GBP and are exclusive of VAT unless stated otherwise.
• →Late payments incur interest at 8% above the Bank of England base rate, in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
• →We reserve the right to suspend Services if invoices remain unpaid beyond 14 days past due.

Both parties agree to keep confidential any proprietary or sensitive information disclosed during the course of an engagement. This obligation survives termination of the engagement for a period of two (2) years.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is publicly available, independently developed, or disclosed under legal compulsion.

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

• →Our total liability arising from or in connection with Services shall not exceed the fees paid by the Client in the 12 months preceding the claim.
• →We shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, revenue or business opportunity.
• →Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

Either party may terminate an engagement by providing 30 days' written notice, unless otherwise specified in the applicable SOW.

Upon termination, the Client shall pay for all Services rendered up to the effective date of termination. All deliverables completed and paid for shall be transferred to the Client.

Sections relating to Intellectual Property, Confidentiality, Limitation of Liability and Governing Law survive termination.
