Terms and conditions.

1. Agreement

These terms govern your use of https://haxtiv.com and related services provided by Haxtiv Studio. By using the site or engaging us, you agree to these terms. Specific engagements are governed by individual contracts that supersede these terms where they conflict.

2. Use of the website

You may use the website for personal and lawful purposes. You agree not to:

• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the site or its systems.
• Disrupt or interfere with security or performance of the site.
• Scrape content for resale or competitive use.
• Use the site to distribute malware or unsolicited communications.

3. Intellectual property

All content on this website — including text, graphics, code, marks, and design — is owned by Haxtiv Studio or our licensors. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without prior written consent.

Engagement-specific IP (deliverables, code, designs) is governed by the relevant statement of work and contract. By default, deliverables transfer to the client on final payment, with a perpetual license retained by Haxtiv Studio to use shipped work for portfolio and marketing purposes (unless explicitly excluded by contract).

4. Engagements and quotes

Quotes, scopes, and proposals are valid for 30 days from the date issued unless stated otherwise. Engagement begins when both parties countersign the agreement and the initial deposit is received. Scope changes are addressed via change orders.

5. Payments

Project engagements are billed in milestones (typically 30/30/30/10). Retainers and care plans are billed monthly in advance. Payments are due within 14 days of invoice unless agreed otherwise. Late payments may accrue interest at 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by law.

6. Confidentiality

We treat client information as confidential, both during and after engagements. NDAs are available on request. Internal team members are bound by confidentiality obligations.

7. Warranties and disclaimers

The website is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from viruses. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Haxtiv Studio disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Engagement-specific warranties (functionality, performance, post-launch support) are defined in the relevant statement of work.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Haxtiv Studio will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for loss of profit, data, or business opportunity, whether based in contract, tort, or otherwise. Our total liability under any engagement is limited to the fees paid for that engagement in the 12 months preceding the claim.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Haxtiv Studio harmless from claims arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of the site or services, except to the extent caused by our negligence or wilful misconduct.

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate access to the website for breach of these terms. Engagement termination is governed by the relevant contract.

11. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where Haxtiv Studio is registered. Disputes are resolved via good-faith negotiation; failing that, by binding arbitration under the rules of the relevant jurisdiction.

12. Changes

We may revise these terms. Continued use of the website after revisions constitutes acceptance.
