Altura Software Labs Ltd provides bespoke software development, artificial intelligence integration, web and mobile application development, process automation, and related technical consulting services ("the Services").

The specific scope, deliverables, timelines, and commercial terms for any engagement will be agreed in writing between the Company and the Client prior to the commencement of any work, typically in the form of a Statement of Work ("SOW"), project proposal, or service agreement.

3.2 Changes to Scope

Any changes to the agreed scope of work must be requested in writing and will be subject to a formal change-control process. Additional work outside the original scope may be subject to additional fees. The Company reserves the right to adjust delivery timelines to accommodate agreed scope changes.

3.3 Subcontracting

The Company may, at its discretion, engage qualified subcontractors to assist in delivering the Services. The Company remains responsible for the quality and delivery of all work, regardless of whether subcontractors are involved.

3.4 Website Information

The information published on this Website is provided for general informational purposes only. Nothing on this Website constitutes a binding offer, commitment, or contractual agreement unless confirmed in writing by an authorised representative of the Company.

4. Intellectual Property

4.1 Client-Commissioned Work

Upon receipt of full payment for the relevant deliverables, all intellectual property rights — including copyright, database rights, and any other proprietary rights — in the custom software, code, designs, and materials created specifically for the Client shall transfer to the Client.

4.2 Pre-Existing IP and Tools

The Company retains all intellectual property rights in any pre-existing tools, frameworks, libraries, methodologies, and know-how used in the delivery of the Services ("Background IP"). Where Background IP is incorporated into deliverables, the Company grants the Client a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use such Background IP solely as part of the deliverable.

4.3 Website Content

All content on this Website — including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, and software — is the property of Altura Software Labs Ltd and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or use any content from this Website without our prior written consent.

4.4 Open-Source Components

Where open-source components are used in the delivery of the Services, the applicable open-source licences shall apply. The Company will disclose the use of material open-source components in the relevant deliverables.

5. Client Obligations

To enable the Company to deliver the Services effectively, the Client agrees to:

  • Provide accurate, complete, and timely information, materials, and access required for the project;
  • Designate a primary point of contact with sufficient authority to make project decisions;
  • Review and provide feedback on deliverables within the timeframes agreed in the SOW;

  • Comply with all applicable laws and regulations in relation to how they use the delivered software or services;
  • Notify the Company promptly of any changes in requirements or circumstances that may affect the project.

Delays caused by the Client's failure to meet these obligations may result in revised delivery timelines and may constitute grounds for the Company to charge for additional time incurred.

6. Payment Terms

All fees for the Services will be set out in the relevant SOW or project agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, all fees are quoted exclusive of VAT, which will be added at the prevailing rate where applicable.

6.4 Suspension of Services

The Company reserves the right to suspend work on a project where any invoice remains unpaid beyond 30 days of its due date, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to the Company.

6.5 Expenses

Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the delivery of the Services (such as third-party API costs, software licences, or travel where pre-agreed) will be invoiced to the Client at cost and shall be paid in accordance with these payment terms.

7. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential all information disclosed by the other party in connection with the Services that is designated as confidential, or that a reasonable person would consider to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure ("Confidential Information").

Neither party shall disclose the other's Confidential Information to any third party without prior written consent, except:

  • To employees, contractors, or professional advisers who have a need to know and are bound by equivalent confidentiality obligations;
