2Proposals, Estimates & Formal Agreements

💼 Non-Binding Quotes

Any estimates, quotes, proposals, or presentations provided by devinit.in — whether verbally, via email, or through a proposal document — are for informational purposes only and are non-binding until a formal written Service Agreement, Statement of Work (SOW), or Work Order has been fully executed and countersigned by both parties. Pricing, timelines, and deliverables outlined in informal estimates may change before formal agreement.

📋 Formal Service Agreements

Formal engagements begin only upon execution of a written Service Agreement or SOW that specifies project scope, milestones, payment terms, and deliverables. These individual contracts take precedence over these general Terms in any conflict, unless these Terms contain more protective provisions.

📅 Project Timelines & Milestones

All project timelines, delivery estimates, and milestone dates are tentative estimates, not fixed commitments. Timelines may be affected by client feedback velocity, scope changes, availability of third-party APIs, infrastructure setup, force majeure events, or other factors beyond our reasonable control. devinit.in will communicate delays promptly and work to reschedule milestones collaboratively.

🔄 Change Requests

Any modification to agreed scope, features, design, or architecture after a formal SOW has been signed is considered a "Change Request." All Change Requests require written approval from both parties before additional work commences, and will be subject to revised pricing and timeline amendments. We reserve the right to decline Change Requests that significantly alter the agreed project direction.

3Client Responsibilities

A successful engagement requires active collaboration. Clients are responsible for:

  • Providing timely access to hosting credentials, third-party platforms, APIs, or databases required for the project.
  • Supplying required creative assets, brand guidelines, logos, copywriting content, photographs, or legal agreements on time.
  • Providing clear, constructive feedback within agreed revision windows (standard: 3–5 business days per revision cycle).
  • Ensuring that all content, data, and materials supplied to devinit.in are owned by the client and do not infringe any third-party intellectual property or legal rights.
  • Ensuring a designated point of contact is available for project decisions throughout the engagement.
⚠️ Client Delay Policy:If a client-side delay (e.g. late asset delivery, unanswered decisions, unavailability) causes a project pause, the delivery timeline will be automatically extended on a day-for-day basis. Extended delays beyond 30 calendar days may result in a project restart fee or rescheduling at a revised rate.

4Post-Launch Maintenance & Support Limits

Post-launch support and warranty coverage apply only within the timeframe and scope defined in your Service Agreement (typically a 14–30 day post-delivery warranty period). During this window, we address bugs that are directly attributable to our development work at no additional charge.

The following are outside the scope of standard warranty support:

  • Software breakage caused by client-side modifications, plugin updates, or third-party platform changes after delivery.
  • Server outages, database failures, or CDN issues managed by third-party hosting providers.
  • New feature additions, design iterations, or scope changes post-launch.
  • Security incidents resulting from credentials mismanagement by the client.

Ongoing maintenance, security patching, backups, performance monitoring, and upgrades are available under a separate Maintenance Retainer Agreement.

5Intellectual Property & Ownership

Unless explicitly stated otherwise in a signed Service Agreement, the following IP provisions apply:

Client IP TransferAll custom code repositories, unique design assets, and database schemas created specifically for a client's project are transferred to the client upon full receipt of all outstanding project payments. No IP transfer occurs while any amount remains outstanding.
devinit.in Retained IPdevinit.in retains ownership of all pre-existing frameworks, boilerplate code, design systems, internal workflow tools, libraries, and reusable components that were created independently of the client's project. These may be used across multiple client engagements. Clients receive a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use such elements within their delivered project.
Client Content WarrantyClients warrant that all content, data, images, and materials provided to devinit.in are legally owned or licensed for the intended use, and that their use does not infringe any third-party copyright, trademark, or privacy rights. Clients indemnify devinit.in against any claims arising from client-supplied content.

Portfolio Rights: devinit.in reserves the right to display completed projects in its portfolio, case studies, and marketing materials unless the client explicitly requests confidentiality in writing prior to project delivery.

6Startup Partnership Model

In select cases, devinit.in partners with early-stage founders under our Partnership Model, which may involve revenue sharing, equity arrangements, co-founding structures, or deferred payment models in exchange for studio services and technical co-founding support.

All partnership arrangements are:

  • Governed exclusively by a separate, custom bilateral legal agreement (e.g. Co-Founder Agreement, Equity Advisory SOW, or Revenue Share Contract).
  • Not implied or created by mere communication, discussion, or use of the word "partner."
  • Subject to due diligence and internal approval by devinit.in before any commitment is made.

In the event of any conflict between a custom partnership agreement and these general Terms, the custom partnership agreement shall prevail for those specific matters.

7Consultation & Content Disclaimer

Important Disclaimer

Any strategic advice, consultation sessions, workshops, cost estimates, blog posts, case studies, guides, or general content published or communicated by devinit.in — including by its founders, team members, advisors, or partners — is provided for informational and general guidance purposes only.

Such content does not constitute and should not be relied upon as formal legal, financial, investment, tax, regulatory, or accounting advice. We strongly recommend consulting qualified professional advisors in the relevant field before making significant business, legal, or financial decisions based on any information shared by devinit.in.

8Project Termination & Refund Policy

🚪 Termination by Either Party

Either party may terminate an active project engagement by providing written notice as specified in the applicable Service Agreement (typically 14–30 calendar days' written notice). All project work and third-party services will cease at the end of the notice period.

💳 Outstanding Payments on Termination

Upon termination by either party, the client remains liable to pay for all work completed, resources allocated, and third-party services procured up to and including the termination date. Outstanding invoices remain due and payable in full.

⛔ Refund Limitations

The following payments are non-refundable under any circumstances: completed milestone payments, initial project setup fees, resource allocation fees, third-party costs (including domain registrations, hosting, CMS licenses, API subscriptions, design tool licenses), and project management overhead already incurred. Partial refunds for incomplete milestones may be considered on a case-by-case basis, solely at devinit.in's discretion.

⚡ Immediate Termination by devinit.in

We reserve the right to immediately suspend or terminate services without notice in cases of: non-payment beyond agreed credit terms, abusive or threatening conduct toward our team, client-side breach of these Terms, or activities that place our infrastructure or reputation at risk.

9Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall devinit.in, its founders, employees, contractors, or suppliers be liable for any:

  • Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
  • Loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity.
  • Damages resulting from third-party service failures (hosting providers, APIs, payment processors).
  • Business losses arising from project delays, milestone postponements, or change requests.
Maximum Liability Cap:Our total aggregate liability for any and all claims arising out of or related to any specific project engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to devinit.in for that specific project milestone or service that directly gave rise to the claim.

10Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your engagement with devinit.in shall first be attempted to be resolved amicably through direct negotiation between the parties.

If informal resolution fails within 30 days, disputes may be submitted to binding arbitration or the appropriate jurisdiction courts in India. You agree to engage in good-faith efforts to resolve disputes before initiating formal proceedings.

11General Provisions

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

Waiver: Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

Updates: We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Updated Terms will be posted with a revised date. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of updated Terms.

Force Majeure: devinit.in shall not be liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, power outages, government restrictions, or third-party infrastructure failures.
