For the purposes of these Terms & Conditions, the following meanings apply:

Company – HireComputerVisionEngineers.com and its operating entity.
Client – Any individual or legal entity engaging the Company’s Services.
Agreement – Any accepted proposal, statement of work, contract, or written confirmation governing the collaboration.
Services – All development, consulting, engineering, and related services provided by the Company.
Project – The scope of work defined in the Agreement.
Deliverables – Outputs, results, or materials produced as part of the Services.
Final Deliverables – Deliverables submitted to the Client after completion and review.

Scope of Services

The Company shall perform the Services strictly in accordance with the scope, milestones, and timelines outlined in the Agreement. Any work not explicitly included in the agreed scope shall be considered outside the Project and subject to separate approval.

Proposals and Validity

All proposals issued by the Company remain valid for thirty (30) calendar days unless stated otherwise. Proposals not accepted within this period may be withdrawn, revised, or replaced without obligation.

Fees, Costs, and Taxes

Service Fees are defined in the Agreement and calculated based on the agreed pricing model.
Additional Costs such as licenses, hosting, cloud services, datasets, or third-party software, are billed separately.
Expenses approved by the Client are charged at actual cost.
All applicable taxes are the responsibility of the Client unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Payment Terms

Invoices are payable within five (5) calendar days from the invoice date. Payments must follow the schedule defined in the Agreement or Project milestones. Late payments may result in suspension of Services until outstanding amounts are settled.

Changes to Scope

Change Requests must be submitted in writing with sufficient detail.
Minor Changes, generally representing less than twenty percent (20%) of the original Project effort, will be billed at standard hourly rates and may affect delivery timelines.
Material Changes exceeding this threshold require a revised proposal and written approval before work continues.

The Company is not obligated to proceed with additional work until revised terms are formally accepted.

Client Responsibilities

The Client agrees to:

Provide accurate, complete, and lawful Client Materials
Ensure all provided content is cleared for use and does not infringe third-party rights
Review Deliverables promptly and provide consolidated feedback
Make timely decisions related to integrations, third-party tools, or approvals

Delays caused by missing information or feedback may result in timeline extensions.

Project Delays

Client-Related Delays result in a corresponding extension of Project milestones.
Company-Related Delays will be communicated without undue delay.
External Events beyond reasonable control (including force majeure events) shall not be treated as contractual breaches and will adjust timelines accordingly.

Review and Acceptance

Deliverables are tested using commercially reasonable and industry-accepted methods. The Client has seven (7) business days to review submitted Deliverables and provide written acceptance or detailed objections. The Company will address valid issues within fourteen (14) business days, followed by a final review period.

Intellectual Property and Usage Rights

Unless otherwise agreed:

The Company retains ownership of all Company Assets and underlying methodologies.
Upon full payment, the Client receives a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide license to use the Final Deliverables in their agreed form.
Modification, redistribution, or creation of derivative works requires prior written consent.

Confidentiality

Any non-public information identified as confidential must be protected by both parties and not disclosed to third parties unless legally required. Information already public or lawfully obtained without restriction is excluded.

Third-Party Contractors

The Company may engage subcontractors or specialists to perform parts of the Services while remaining fully responsible for the resulting Deliverables.

Relationship of the Parties

The Company operates as an independent contractor. Nothing in these Terms creates an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, or agency arrangement.

Liability Limitation

Services are provided on an “as-is” basis. The Company’s total liability arising from the Agreement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client for the Services. The Company shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

Support and Maintenance

Post-delivery support, updates, or maintenance may be provided at standard hourly rates unless otherwise agreed. Any warranty or responsibility becomes void if Deliverables are modified by third parties without Company’s involvement.

Promotion and Attribution

Unless explicitly restricted, the Company may reference completed Projects in portfolios, case studies, or marketing materials. Neither party shall unreasonably withhold permission to acknowledge the collaboration.

These Terms & Conditions may be updated periodically. The version published on the website reflects the current terms governing use of the Services.
