In case of conflict, the SOW prevails over these Terms. 4) Client responsibilities Provide timely approvals, brand assets, product access, Ad Accounts (Meta/Google/LinkedIn/YouTube), pixels/SDKs, website/admin access, Scripts, training, CRM Access, API integration and accurate information. Delays or omissions may shift timelines or incur change orders. 5) Fees, taxes & payments Fees are as quoted in the SOW or price list and are exclusive of GST and applicable taxes.

Media spends are paid by Client directly to platforms or pre‑funded to us as pass‑through and are non‑refundable. 6) Changes & out‑of‑scope Requests beyond the agreed scope will be quoted separately via change order. Emergency/expedited requests may incur rush fees. 7) Performance disclaimers Marketing outcomes depend on many external factors (industry, competition, algorithms, budgets, seasonality, product‑market fit). We do not warrant specific rankings, ROAS, impressions, leads, sales, escalations, service levels, or timelines unless explicitly guaranteed in writing. 8) Content, IP & portfolio rights Pre‑existing IP of each party remains with that party. Work product created under a paid SOW is assigned/licensed to Client upon full payment, excluding our underlying tools, templates, know‑how, and generic capabilities. We may cite Client’s name/logo and display non‑confidential work in our portfolio and case studies. Client may opt‑out by written notice (reasonable processing time applies). 9) Third‑party platforms & tools We may use third‑party platforms (e.g., Meta, Google, LinkedIn, programmatic DSPs, email/SMS/WhatsApp gateways, analytics, AI/ML tools, hosting). Their terms/policies apply independently. Platform suspensions, policy changes, or outages are outside our control. 10) AI‑assisted deliverables We may use AI tools to ideate or generate drafts (copy, images, code). Human review is applied for material deliverables. Client is responsible for final legal/regulatory review and approvals. Unless agreed otherwise, we provide a non‑exclusive license to AI‑assisted assets upon full payment, subject to third‑party model/tool terms. 11) Confidentiality & data protection Each party will protect the other’s Confidential Information and use it only for the engagement.

Media spends/third‑party costs (ad platforms, software, creators, hosting, SMS/WhatsApp credits, domain/SSL, stock assets) are pass‑through and non‑refundable once purchased or committed. We strive to meet timelines, but deliverables depend on Client approvals, dependencies, and third‑party platforms. Retainer fees are billed in advance for each month/period.

Pre‑paid media or third‑party fees are non‑refundable. 18) Force majeure Neither party is liable for delays/failures due to events beyond reasonable control (e.g., natural disasters, war, strikes, internet/platform outages, government actions). 19) Governing law & dispute resolution These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of India.
