Client deliverables: Intellectual property rights in work product created by Inventixx for clients will be specified in individual service agreements. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, full ownership of deliverables transfers to the client upon receipt of full payment.

Services and Engagements

The services provided by Inventixx are governed by separate service agreements, statements of work (SOW), or project proposals signed by both parties. These Terms supplement, but do not replace, those agreements. In the event of a conflict, the signed service agreement shall prevail.

General service terms:

  • Inventixx reserves the right to decline any project request at its discretion
  • All project timelines and deliverables are subject to client cooperation, timely feedback, and availability of required assets or access
  • Inventixx may engage qualified sub-contractors to deliver services, subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations
  • Any changes to agreed project scope must be documented in writing and may result in revised timelines and fees

Payment Terms

Unless otherwise specified in a written agreement:

  • A deposit of 50% of the agreed project fee is payable before commencement of work
  • The remaining balance is payable upon project delivery or as per the milestone schedule in the service agreement
  • Invoices are payable within 14 (fourteen) calendar days of the invoice date
  • Late payments may incur interest at the rate prescribed by the National Credit Act, or as stipulated in the relevant service agreement
  • Inventixx reserves the right to suspend work on any project where payment is overdue by more than 14 days
  • All fees are quoted exclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT) where applicable. VAT will be added at the prevailing rate

Confidentiality

Each party agrees to keep confidential all non-public information disclosed by the other party in connection with any services or business discussions. This obligation survives the termination of any engagement for a period of 3 (three) years. Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving party, or is required to be disclosed by law.

Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available” without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied. Inventixx does not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Inventixx shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, use, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with the use of our Site or services, even if Inventixx has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Inventixx's total aggregate liability to any client shall not exceed the total fees paid by that client to Inventixx in the three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Inventixx (Pty) Ltd, its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any applicable law or third-party rights.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites or reference third-party services. These links are provided for convenience only. Inventixx does not endorse, control, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or terms of any third-party sites or services. Your use of third-party websites is at your own risk.

Termination

Inventixx reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to terminate or restrict your access to the Site at any time and for any reason, without notice. These Terms will survive any termination of your access to the Site.

Either party may terminate a service engagement by providing written notice as specified in the relevant service agreement. Upon termination, the client shall pay for all work completed up to the date of termination. Inventixx shall deliver all completed work product upon receipt of final payment.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or any services provided by Inventixx shall first be subject to good-faith negotiation between the parties. If unresolved within 30 days, the dispute may be referred to mediation or, failing that, to arbitration in Pretoria, Gauteng, in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Foundation of Southern Africa (AFSA). This does not preclude either party from seeking urgent interim relief from a court of competent jurisdiction.

Privacy

Your use of our Site is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using our Site or services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in the Privacy Policy.

Changes to These Terms

Inventixx reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective upon posting to the Site with a revised “Effective Date”. Your continued use of the Site or services after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
