All services are provided subject to a written service agreement or statement of work (SOW) that specifies project scope, deliverables, timelines, and pricing. The SOW shall take precedence over these Terms in case of any conflict.

1.3 Fees and Payment Terms

• Pricing Structure: Fees are determined based on project scope, complexity, and engagement model (Starter, Growth, or Enterprise). Pricing may be fixed-price, time-and-materials, or milestone-based as agreed in the SOW.
• Payment Schedule: Payment terms are specified in each SOW. Typically, projects require an initial deposit (30-50%) upon agreement, milestone payments during development, and final payment upon project completion and acceptance.
• Payment Methods: We accept payments via bank transfer, wire transfer, and cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDC, USDT) as mutually agreed.
• Late Payments: Invoices not paid within the specified terms may incur late fees of 1.5% per month. We reserve the right to suspend services until payment is received.
• Currency: All fees are quoted in USD unless otherwise specified. Cryptocurrency payments will be converted at the exchange rate at the time of payment.

• Blockify Studio Rights: We retain rights to our proprietary tools, frameworks, libraries, and methodologies used in service delivery.

• Portfolio Rights: Blockify Studio may use anonymized project information and non-confidential work samples for marketing purposes, subject to client approval.

1.5 Smart Contract Security & Liability

• Audit Recommendations: We strongly recommend third-party security audits for all smart contracts before mainnet deployment. While we conduct internal audits, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
• Liability Limitation: Blockify Studio's liability for smart contract vulnerabilities, bugs, or security breaches is limited to the fees paid for the specific service. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages.
• Client Responsibilities: Clients are responsible for testing, auditing, and securing their deployed contracts. We recommend comprehensive testing, multiple audit rounds, and bug bounty programs.
• No Warranty: Smart contracts are provided "as-is" without warranties. Blockchain technology involves inherent risks including smart contract vulnerabilities, network risks, and regulatory changes.

1.6 Project Scope & Changes

• Scope Definition: Project scope is defined in the SOW. Any changes to scope, features, or requirements may result in additional fees and timeline adjustments.
• Change Requests: Change requests must be submitted in writing and approved by both parties. Approved changes will be documented in a change order.
• Client Delays: Delays caused by client feedback, approval processes, or requirement changes may extend project timelines without additional cost to Blockify Studio.

• Termination by Client: Clients may terminate services with 30 days written notice. Payment is due for all work completed and expenses incurred up to the termination date.
• Termination by Blockify Studio: We may terminate services for non-payment, breach of agreement, or if the client engages in illegal activities. We will provide 14 days notice except in cases of immediate breach.
• Cancellation Fees: Early termination may incur cancellation fees as specified in the SOW, typically covering work completed and committed resources.
• Deliverables Upon Termination: Upon termination, we will provide all completed work and documentation. Unpaid work remains our property until payment is received.

1.8 Compliance & Regulatory

• Regulatory Compliance: Clients are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and licensing requirements in their jurisdiction, including securities laws, AML/KYC requirements, and tax obligations.
• No Legal Advice: Blockify Studio provides technical development services only. We do not provide legal, financial, or regulatory advice. Clients should consult with qualified legal and financial advisors.
• Jurisdiction-Specific Requirements: Services may be subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions. Clients are responsible for verifying that our services are permitted in their location.

1.9 Confidentiality

• Non-Disclosure: Both parties agree to maintain confidentiality of proprietary information, business strategies, technical specifications, and other confidential materials shared during the engagement.
• Exclusions: Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is publicly available, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law.
• Duration: Confidentiality obligations continue for 3 years after project completion or termination.

1.10 Limitation of Liability

• Maximum Liability: Our total liability for any claims arising from our services shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client for the specific service in question.
• Excluded Damages: We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption.
• Force Majeure: We are not liable for delays or failures due to circumstances beyond our control, including blockchain network issues, regulatory changes, or acts of nature.
