Our promise, your rights, copyright, and other policies in brief, and in simple English

Let's face it, the lengthy documents filled with 'legalese' are ideal for courtroom lawyers and latin-language enthusiasts. As website users, we rarely take time to read all the '326 pages' of the privacy policy, conditions and copyright notices of every website we visit, use, and transact with. The following are simple statements that provide an overview of what we promise to do and not to do with the information you provide to us, what your responsibilities are, and which information is covered by what copyright. We will update and modify this text from time to time, so please visit this page as often as it may be necessary for your comfort.

Your rights as our customer/client, visitor

1. We will not share your information (email, phone, address etc) unless you request it, or unless we expressly ask for and get your permission to do so.
2. We will not disclose any information about the nature or details of your project without your permission, as long as that information is not already in the public domain
3. We honour all contracts that we enter into. If you duly alert us that a scoped feature has not been delivered upon, we will reasonably correct the issue

Your Responsibilities

1. You shall not reverse-engineer any software code that we provide to you that is not governed by a license that allows you to do so (such as GPL)
   
2. You shall not disclose our technical, and business secrets. They enable us to stay ahead of our competition and benefit from the hard work that goes into these innovations
3. If you get into a contract with us, we, and the law expects you to honour your side of the contract.
4. Every project we undertake will have a contract that provides more details, and specific policies and agreements governing that project. It may reinforce these points or depart from some of them

Our rights - Yes, we have some rights too.

1. In order to remain in business, we need to demonstrate what we can do to your prospective customers. We will therefor use the work we do for our clients (that includes you) as portfolio material. We will only exhibit your project once it has been launched, made public, or is no-longer a secret
2. We are not responsible for losses or other forms of damages that you, or your clients may incur while using our websites, or software and websites and application that we develop for you. We believe that you get a fair chance to test and make sure that we deliver all scoped features before you sign-off on a job well done. If your project requires a specific warranty, please make note of it in the contract.

Copyright

1. There is copyright on all photography. You must not copy, or otherwise use our images without written permission (you can link to the libraries and galleries). Original works such as photography need this protection. If you would like to use the images in your work, do not hesitate to request permission, and we will almost always grant it. It is not worth it to use the work without permission and create legal conflict while we would have graciously given you permission if you asked for it.
   
2. Technical documents, commentary, and opinion documents on this site may not be copied and used in entirety or in part without permission. You may however use them as a basis for your own research, and comment accordingly on this website, or another website while making reference to our documents using HREF links as necessary.
