Terms of service

Last updated 22 August 2026 · Version 1.0

These terms govern your use of this website and, where they apply, the services provided by Kaul Innovation & Technology Group Private Limited. Please read them. By using this website you accept the parts that relate to it.

1 · Definitions

• “We”, “us”, “the Company” — Kaul Innovation & Technology Group Private Limited.
• “You”, “Client” — the person or organisation using this website or engaging our services.
• “Services” — software development, automation, integration, digital and consulting services we provide.
• “Deliverables” — the software, code, documentation and materials we produce for you under an engagement.
• “SOW” — a proposal or statement of work describing scope, price and timeline, agreed in writing.

2 · Using this website

This website is provided for information. You may read it, print it and share links to it. You may not copy its content for commercial reuse, attempt to gain unauthorised access to it, interfere with its operation, or use automated tools in a way that degrades it for others.

Content on this website is not professional advice and does not constitute an offer capable of acceptance. Nothing here creates a contractual relationship until we both sign a SOW.

3 · Our services

We provide software development, automation, integration and technology consulting. Each engagement is defined by a written SOW setting out what we will deliver, for what price, and by when.

We are a software company only. We hold no insurance broking, banking, investment or other financial-services licence, we do not distribute regulated products, and we are never a party to any regulated transaction our clients undertake. Where our software supports a licensed activity, the client remains solely responsible for their own regulatory compliance, their own licences and permissions, and their relationship with their regulator.

4 · Scope and changes

• Work is performed to the scope written in the SOW. Anything not stated is out of scope.
• Changes are quoted in writing and only carried out once you approve them.
• Timelines assume you provide agreed access, information and decisions when required. Delay on your side moves the timeline correspondingly.
• We may engage sub-contractors, and remain responsible to you for their work.

5 · Your responsibilities

• Provide accurate information and timely decisions and approvals
• Provide necessary access to systems, and hold the rights to grant that access
• Hold all licences, registrations and regulatory permissions your business requires
• Ensure any data you give us was lawfully collected and may lawfully be processed by us
• Nominate one person empowered to approve scope and sign off deliverables
• Test deliverables during the agreed acceptance period

6 · Intellectual property

6.1 What becomes yours

On full payment, all intellectual property rights in the Deliverables created specifically for you transfer to you, including source code, designs and documentation. We will sign anything reasonably required to record that transfer.

6.2 What stays ours

We retain ownership of our pre-existing materials — our own frameworks, libraries, tools, know-how and reusable components developed before or independently of your engagement. Where these are embedded in a Deliverable, we grant you a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use, modify and maintain them as part of that Deliverable.

6.3 Third-party components

Deliverables may include open-source or third-party components licensed under their own terms. We will tell you what they are and ensure their licences permit your intended use.

6.4 Our own products

Products we develop and operate on our own account remain entirely ours. An engagement does not grant any right to them.

7 · Confidentiality

Each party will keep the other’s confidential information confidential, use it only for the engagement, and protect it with at least reasonable care. This does not apply to information that is public through no fault of the receiving party, was already lawfully known, is independently developed, or must be disclosed by law — in which case the disclosing party will be told first where lawful. These obligations survive the end of the engagement by three years, and indefinitely for personal data and trade secrets.

We will not name you publicly as a client, or describe your project, without your written consent.

8 · Data protection

Where we process personal data on your behalf, you are the Data Fiduciary and we act as a Data Processor under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. We will process such data only on your documented instructions, apply appropriate security safeguards, assist you with data-principal requests, notify you without delay of any breach, and delete or return the data at the end of the engagement. Where required we will enter into a separate data-processing agreement. Our own practices are described in our privacy notice and security page.

9 · Fees and payment

• Fees are as stated in the SOW, exclusive of applicable taxes including GST
• Fixed-price work is invoiced against milestones; retainers are invoiced monthly in advance
• Invoices are payable within 15 days unless the SOW states otherwise
• We may suspend work on invoices overdue by more than 30 days, having given written notice
• Overdue amounts may attract interest at 1.5% per month
• Third-party costs — hosting, licences, domains — are yours and are billed at cost unless agreed otherwise

Cancellation and refunds are covered in our payment and refund policy.

10 · Warranties

We warrant that the Services will be performed with reasonable skill and care by suitably competent people, and that Deliverables will conform materially to the SOW. We will correct defects reported within 30 days of delivery at no charge.

We do not warrant that software will be uninterrupted or error-free, that it will meet requirements never communicated to us, or that third-party services will remain available or unchanged. This website is provided “as is”. All other warranties are excluded to the extent permitted by law.

11 · Liability

Nothing in these terms excludes liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Subject to that, our total aggregate liability arising out of an engagement is limited to the total fees paid by you to us under that engagement in the twelve months preceding the claim. Neither party is liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, business, goodwill, or loss of data to the extent it could have been prevented by the other party’s own backups.

12 · Term and termination

• An engagement runs until the SOW is complete, or as the SOW states
• Either party may terminate for material breach not remedied within 30 days of written notice
• Either party may terminate a retainer on 30 days’ written notice
• On termination you pay for work performed and costs committed up to that date
• On termination, and on full payment, we hand over all Deliverables, data and credentials

13 · Events beyond control

Neither party is liable for failure to perform caused by events beyond reasonable control, including natural disaster, war, epidemic, government action, failure of public infrastructure, or the failure of a third-party platform we depend on. The affected party will notify the other promptly and use reasonable efforts to resume.

14 · Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts at [city of registered office — fill this in] have exclusive jurisdiction. Before starting proceedings, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute by discussion between senior representatives for at least 30 days.

15 · General

• Entire agreement — the SOW and these terms are the entire agreement, superseding earlier discussions
• Severability — if a provision is unenforceable, the rest continues in force
• No waiver — not enforcing a right does not waive it
• Assignment — neither party may assign without the other’s written consent, save to a successor of substantially the whole business
• Notices — in writing, by email to the addresses in the SOW, deemed received on the next working day
• Independent contractors — nothing creates a partnership, joint venture or employment relationship
• No third-party rights — no one other than the parties may enforce these terms
