Last Updated: August 3, 2026

1. Introduction

These Terms & Conditions ("Agreement") govern the commercial relationship, service agreements, and platform access between Googi Technologies ("Googitec," "we," "us," or "our") and any client, user, or entity ("Client," "you," or "your") purchasing digital services, enterprise software, cloud infrastructure, or consulting from Googitec.

2. Scope of Services

Googitec agrees to perform professional services as outlined in individual Statements of Work (SOW), project proposals, or Service Level Agreements (SLAs). Services offered include:

  • Full-stack web application development and software engineering.

  • Mobile application development (iOS/Android).

  • Cybersecurity penetration testing, red teaming, and system vulnerability audits.

  • Cloud infrastructure deployment and DevOps management.

  • User Interface & User Experience (UI/UX) design.

  • Managed 24/7 IT support and digital analytics.

3. Financial Terms & Payment Policies

  • Invoicing & Milestone Payments: Unless specified otherwise in a custom contract, project fees are divided into milestone payments (e.g., initial deposit, mid-project approval, and final deployment).

  • Payment Due Dates: Invoices issued by Googitec must be settled within the timeframe indicated on the invoice (typically 14 to 30 days).

  • Late Payments & Delays: Failure to settle invoices by the due date may result in a temporary suspension of active development, domain hosting, API gateways, or technical support tickets until all outstanding balances are cleared.

  • Taxes: All fees quoted exclude applicable taxes, duties, or government levies unless explicitly stated.

4. Client Responsibilities & Data Provision

To ensure timely project delivery, the Client agrees to:

  • Provide accurate project requirements, technical specs, logos, and digital assets in a timely manner.

  • Grant Googitec necessary, non-exclusive access to cloud servers, databases, or API keys strictly required to execute the project.

  • Review and approve project milestones within agreed feedback windows to avoid delivery delays.

5. Intellectual Property & Ownership Rights

  • Client IP: The Client retains all intellectual property rights to their pre-existing assets, proprietary data, and logos provided to Googitec.

  • Deliverables: Upon full payment of all contractual fees, full ownership rights of final, custom code and bespoke assets developed specifically for the Client will transfer to the Client.

  • Googitec Background IP: Googitec retains ownership of all pre-existing internal libraries, reusable code frameworks, developer tools, and proprietary scripts utilized across multiple client builds. The Client receives a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use such components as part of their delivered product.

6. Confidentiality & Non-Disclosure

Both parties agree to treat all business strategies, client records, server credentials, database schematics, and source code as strictly confidential. Neither party shall disclose confidential information to any third party without prior written consent, except as required by law.

7. Warranties & Technical Support

  • Bug-Fix Guarantee: Googitec provides a standard 30-day post-launch warranty covering bug fixes and code remediation for critical errors directly caused by our development team.

  • Exclusions: This warranty does not apply to code modified by third parties after deployment, issues caused by third-party API changes, hosting provider downtime, or unauthorized server tampering.

  • Ongoing Support: Post-warranty technical maintenance requires an active monthly IT Support or Managed Cloud SLA agreement.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Googitec shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages—including loss of profits, data corruption, or business interruption—arising out of or in connection with our services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Googitec’s maximum cumulative liability under any project contract shall not exceed the total aggregate amount paid by the Client to Googitec under that specific contract during the preceding three (3) months.

9. Term & Termination

  • Termination for Convenience: Either party may terminate an open-ended project or SLA by providing thirty (30) days' written notice to the other party.

  • Termination for Cause: Either party may terminate immediately if the other party breaches a material term of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within fourteen (14) days of written notice.

  • Post-Termination Payment: Upon termination, the Client shall immediately pay Googitec for all billable hours worked and milestones completed up to the effective date of termination.

10. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Republic of Tanzania.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall first be resolved through good-faith mutual negotiations. If unresolved within thirty (30) days, the dispute shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Tanzania.
