1. Services Agreement

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Client", "you", or "your") and Aarvi IT Solutions ("Company", "we", "us", or "our"), a software and IT services firm operating from Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

By engaging our services, signing a Service Order, or accessing our deliverables, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use our services.

2. Scope of Services

Aarvi IT Solutions provides the following services, subject to separate Service Orders or Statement of Work ("SOW") documents:

  • Custom Software Development – design, development, testing, and deployment of bespoke software solutions.
  • Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC) – scheduled and reactive maintenance, upgrades, and support for existing software systems.
  • IT Support Services – helpdesk, on-site, remote, and infrastructure support services.
  • Related professional services – consulting, training, and project management as agreed.

The specific deliverables, timelines, and fees for each engagement are defined in the applicable SOW. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and an SOW, the SOW shall prevail.

3. Service Delivery

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver services in accordance with agreed timelines. However, delivery schedules may be subject to change due to:

  • Late or incomplete provision of materials, access, or approvals by the Client.
  • Changes in scope requested by the Client after work has commenced.
  • Factors beyond our reasonable control, including force majeure events.

All deliverables are subject to a formal acceptance process defined in the applicable SOW. The Client shall raise defects or objections within 7 calendar days of delivery; otherwise, the deliverable is deemed accepted.

4. Client Responsibilities

To enable effective service delivery, the Client agrees to:

  • Provide timely, accurate, and complete information, access credentials, and materials required for the project.
  • Designate a single point of contact with authority to provide instructions and approve deliverables.
  • Ensure that any data, content, or software provided to us does not infringe third-party intellectual property rights.
  • Maintain appropriate data backups before engaging maintenance or support activities.
  • Not use our deliverables for any unlawful, harmful, or fraudulent purposes.
  • Pay invoices within the terms specified in the applicable SOW or purchase order.

5. Payment Terms

Unless otherwise agreed in writing:

  • Project-based engagements are billed in milestones as defined in the SOW; an advance payment of 30–50% is typically required before work commences.
  • AMC and retainer fees are billed quarterly or annually in advance.
  • Invoices are payable within 15 calendar days of the invoice date.
  • Late payments attract interest at 1.5% per month on the outstanding balance.
  • All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes (GST, etc.) unless stated otherwise.

We reserve the right to suspend services for accounts with outstanding balances exceeding 30 days, without liability to the Client.

6. Intellectual Property

Upon receipt of full payment for a project, Aarvi IT Solutions assigns to the Client all intellectual property rights in custom deliverables specifically created for that Client, except as noted below.

The following intellectual property remains the sole property of Aarvi IT Solutions and is licensed (not sold) to the Client for use within the scope of the engagement:

  • Pre-existing frameworks, libraries, templates, and tools developed by Aarvi IT Solutions prior to the engagement.
  • Generic components reused across multiple clients.
  • Methodologies, processes, and know-how employed in delivering services.

Third-party open-source components are subject to their respective licences; the Client is responsible for compliance with such licences.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

  • Aarvi IT Solutions' total cumulative liability under any engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the immediately preceding 3 months.
  • We shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including loss of profit, revenue, data, or business opportunities.
  • We provide services on an "as is, as available" basis and make no warranties as to uninterrupted, error-free, or virus-free operation beyond those specified in the applicable SLA.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability that cannot be excluded by law.

8. Termination

Either party may terminate an SOW or this agreement by providing 30 days' written notice. In addition:

  • Either party may terminate immediately upon a material breach that remains uncured for 14 days after written notice.
  • We may terminate immediately if the Client fails to make payment when due, becomes insolvent, or uses our services for illegal purposes.

Upon termination, the Client shall pay for all services delivered up to the termination date. Work in progress may be issued as partial deliverables at our discretion. Provisions regarding intellectual property, confidentiality, payment, and liability survive termination.

9. Privacy & Confidentiality

Each party agrees to keep the other party's confidential information (including business plans, technical specifications, pricing, and client data) strictly confidential and to use it only for the purposes of the engagement. This obligation survives termination for a period of 3 years.

We process personal data shared with us in accordance with applicable Indian data protection laws and our Privacy Policy. We do not sell or rent client data to third parties.

10. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

The parties agree to attempt good-faith negotiation for at least 30 days before initiating formal legal proceedings. Where applicable, disputes may be referred to arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.

11. Amendments
