Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing dochia.dev or engaging Dochia Software for any service, you confirm that you're authorised to enter into this agreement on behalf of yourself or the organisation you represent, and that you accept these Terms in full.

2. Our services

Dochia Software provides software development, AI integration, IT consulting and related services. Specific deliverables, timelines, fees and responsibilities for any engagement are defined in a separate written proposal or contract ("Statement of Work"), which takes precedence over these Terms in the event of a conflict regarding that engagement.

3. Acceptable use

When using our website or services, you agree not to:

• Use the site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable regulation
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, accounts or data
• Interfere with or disrupt the website's functionality or security
• Reproduce, duplicate, copy or resell any part of the website without our written permission
• Submit false, misleading or fraudulent information through our forms

4. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise agreed in a Statement of Work, all content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, and code — is the property of Dochia Software and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

For client projects: ownership of deliverables transfers to the client upon full payment, as detailed in the relevant contract, except for any pre-existing tools, frameworks or components that remain Dochia Software's property and are licensed for the client's ongoing use.

5. Payment & engagements

Project fees, payment schedules and milestones are defined individually in each Statement of Work or proposal. Generally:

• An initial deposit may be required before work begins
• Invoices are due within the period specified on the invoice (typically 14 days)
• Late payments may pause active work until the account is brought current
• Scope changes outside the agreed Statement of Work may incur additional fees, always communicated and approved in advance

6. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Dochia Software shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages arising from your use of our website or services, including loss of profits, data or business opportunities. Our total liability for any claim arising from a project shall not exceed the fees paid for that specific engagement in the preceding three months.

7. Termination

Either party may terminate an active engagement in accordance with the notice terms set out in the relevant Statement of Work. Upon termination, the client is responsible for payment of all work completed up to the termination date, and Dochia Software will provide reasonable assistance in transitioning ongoing work.

8. Governing law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which Dochia Software is registered, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes arising under these Terms will first be addressed through good-faith negotiation before any formal proceedings.

9. Changes to these terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, services, or legal requirements. We'll update the "last updated" date above whenever we make changes, and significant updates will be communicated to active clients directly.
