Terms
On this page
Version 1 · September 3, 2026
Proposals and statements of work identify these terms by version and date. Keep a PDF of the version in force with each project’s records.
These terms govern your use of this website and any engagement with JSK Business Solutions Private Limited (CIN U93000WB2013PTC196574), a company registered in West Bengal, India, with its registered office at Ground Floor, Surya Kiran Apartment, 17 Bharat Chandra Roy Path, Shyamnagar, North 24 Parganas, West Bengal 743127 (“JSK”, “we”, “us”).
Where we have signed a separate written agreement with you, that agreement takes precedence over these terms to the extent of any conflict.
1. Using this website
The content on this site is provided for information. We keep it accurate and current as far as we reasonably can, but we do not warrant that it is complete or error-free, and nothing on it constitutes an offer capable of acceptance.
Prices shown are starting prices in US dollars, indicative of typical engagements. They are not quotations. A quotation is a written document we send you for a defined scope, and only that document binds either of us. Indian clients are invoiced in Indian rupees at our India rate, plus applicable GST.
You may not use this site to attempt unauthorised access, to interfere with its operation, or to extract content systematically for republication.
2. How an engagement starts
An engagement begins when you accept a written proposal or statement of work from us. That document sets out the scope, the deliverables, the timeline, the fee and anything expressly excluded.
Work outside that scope is not included. Where you ask for something additional, we will tell you before we start it what it will cost and what it does to the timeline. We do not bill for out-of-scope work you have not agreed to in writing.
3. What we each do
We will: perform the services with reasonable skill and care and to professional standards; keep you informed of progress; tell you promptly if something will be late or will not work; and hand over what the agreement says we will hand over.
You will: give us the information, access, content and approvals we need, within a reasonable time; make sure you have the right to give us any data or material you send; and give us a single named point of contact with authority to make decisions.
Where a delay is caused by information or approvals we are waiting on, timelines move by the length of that delay. We will tell you when that happens rather than letting a date quietly slip.
4. Fees and payment
Fixed-price work: 50% on acceptance of the proposal, 50% on handover, unless the proposal says otherwise.
Monthly work: invoiced monthly in advance. Either of us may end it with 30 days’ written notice. There is no minimum term beyond the first month.
Payment terms: within 15 days of the invoice date.
Taxes: fees are exclusive of taxes. Indian clients are charged GST at the applicable rate. Where withholding tax applies in your jurisdiction, fees are grossed up so we receive the invoiced amount.
Third-party costs — hosting, domains, store developer accounts, model and API usage, paid plugin licences — are yours, billed at cost, and we tell you about them before you commit.
Late payment. We may suspend work on 7 days’ written notice if an undisputed invoice is more than 30 days overdue.
Interest. Interest accrues on undisputed invoices at 1.5% per month, or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law if lower, from the date the invoice falls due until payment. Nothing in these Terms limits any right to interest that applies to us by statute.
5. Who owns what
5.1 Your materials. You retain all intellectual property rights in anything you provide to us, including your content, trademarks, data, specifications and other materials (“Client Materials”). You give us a limited licence to use the Client Materials only as necessary to perform the Services.
5.2 Project Deliverables. “Project Deliverables” means the source code, object code, designs, graphics, documentation and other work product expressly identified as deliverables in the applicable Proposal or Statement of Work and created by us specifically for you in performing that project. Project Deliverables do not include Background Materials, Client Materials or Third-Party Materials described below.
5.3 Assignment on full payment. Subject to our receipt of all amounts due for the relevant project, JSK Business Solutions (“JSK”) hereby assigns to you absolutely all of JSK’s right, title and interest in and to the intellectual property created specifically for you in the Project Deliverables (“Project IP”), including all copyright and rights comprised in copyright, database rights, registered and unregistered design rights and other assignable intellectual property rights subsisting in the Project IP.
The assignment is worldwide and for the entire term of each such right, including all extensions, renewals and revivals, and includes the right to use, reproduce, store, modify, adapt, translate, maintain, develop, distribute, publish, communicate, commercialise, license, sublicense and otherwise exploit the Project IP.
The assignment covers exploitation through source code and object code and through websites, web applications, desktop and mobile applications, browser extensions, APIs, cloud and SaaS services, downloadable software, application stores and other media, platforms, technologies and modes of exploitation now known, existing or commercially used or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, developed or used in the future.
Where any Project IP is a future work at the date the contract is entered into, this assignment takes effect automatically on the later of (a) the work coming into existence and (b) our receipt of full payment, without requiring any further assignment.
The consideration for this assignment is included in the fees payable for the project. No separate royalty, licence fee or other consideration is payable by you for the assigned Project IP, except to the extent any payment cannot lawfully be waived or excluded.
5.4 No lapse through non-use. You are not required to exercise any assigned right within one year or within any other minimum period. Non-use, delayed deployment or delayed commercial exploitation of a Project Deliverable does not cause any assigned right to lapse, revert or terminate under section 19(4) of the Copyright Act, 1957. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not seek revocation of the assignment merely because you have not used, deployed or commercially exploited a Project Deliverable.
5.5 Before full payment. Until all amounts due for the relevant project have been paid, the Project IP remains owned by JSK. During that period you may use copies supplied to you only for review, testing and acceptance unless the Proposal states otherwise.
5.6 Our existing materials. We retain ownership of software, libraries, frameworks, templates, utilities, development tools, processes, techniques, know-how and other intellectual property that existed before the project or that we develop independently of the Project Deliverables (“Background Materials”).
To the extent Background Materials are incorporated into, or are reasonably necessary to use, maintain, modify or exploit, a Project Deliverable, on full payment we grant you a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt and create derivative works from those Background Materials as part of or in connection with the Project Deliverable. You may transfer that licence with the Project Deliverable or your business and may sublicense it to your employees, contractors, hosting providers, service providers, customers and end users as reasonably necessary to use or exploit the Project Deliverable. The Background Materials may not be sold or commercialised independently from the Project Deliverable unless we agree otherwise in writing. This licence does not lapse because of non-use.
5.7 Third-party materials and open source. Software, libraries, fonts, images and other materials owned by third parties (“Third-Party Materials”), including open-source software, remain subject to their applicable third-party licence terms and are not assigned by us. Where reasonably practicable, applicable dependency files, notices or licence information supplied with the Project Deliverable will identify such components.
5.8 Moral rights. Moral and similar rights that cannot legally be assigned remain with their respective authors. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we will obtain from persons who create Project IP for us appropriate waivers, consents or agreements not to assert such rights in a manner that would prevent you or your successors from using, modifying, adapting, maintaining or exploiting the Project Deliverables.
5.9 Further documents. At your reasonable request, we will execute further documents reasonably necessary to evidence, perfect or record the ownership transferred under this clause, including documents relating to registered design rights. Unless otherwise agreed in the Proposal, you will bear official filing or registration fees charged by governmental authorities.
5.10 Changes to the assignment. Any revision, extension or termination of the assignment in this clause must be agreed in writing by both parties.
Except for Background Materials and Third-Party Materials as expressly stated above, there is no ongoing JSK licence fee for your continued ownership and use of the Project Deliverables after full payment.
6. Confidentiality
Each of us will keep the other’s confidential information confidential, use it only for the engagement, and protect it at least as carefully as our own. This survives the end of the engagement.
It does not apply to information that is public through no fault of ours, that we already held, that we develop independently, or that we are required by law to disclose — and in that last case we will tell you first if we are lawfully able to.
We sign a separate NDA with every client, and where personal data is involved we also sign a Data Processing Agreement. How we handle data is set out at /about-us/data-handling/.
7. Publicity
We will not name you, use your logo, or describe your project publicly without your written permission. Every case study on this site describes work anonymously for exactly that reason.
If you are willing to be named, we will ask, and you may withdraw permission at any time.
8. Warranties and what we do not promise
We warrant that we will perform the services with reasonable skill and care, and that the deliverables will substantially conform to the agreed scope.
We correct defects free of charge for 30 days after handover. A defect is the work not doing what the agreed scope says it does. A change of mind is not a defect, and we will quote for it.
We do not warrant that software will be uninterrupted or error-free, that a website will reach any particular search ranking, that lead generation will produce any particular number of responses or sales, or that third-party services beyond our control will remain available. Where we quote a figure — a fill rate, a performance score, an accuracy rate — we measure and report it honestly; we do not guarantee it in advance.
Except as stated in this section, all warranties implied by law are excluded to the extent permitted.
9. Liability
Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Subject to that, neither of us is liable to the other for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, or loss of goodwill.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to an engagement will not exceed the greater of the fees you paid us for that engagement in the twelve months before the claim, or the equivalent of INR 5,000.
This cap applies to all claims, however arising, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise.
9A. Indemnity
We will defend you against any claim that a deliverable we created for you infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights, and pay damages finally awarded, provided you tell us promptly, let us control the defence, and give us reasonable assistance. This does not apply where the claim arises from material you supplied, from your modification of a deliverable, or from use outside the agreed scope.
You will indemnify us against claims arising from data or material you supplied to us, including any claim that you did not have the right to supply it.
10. Ending an engagement
Either of us may end an engagement for material breach that is not fixed within 30 days of written notice, or immediately if the other becomes insolvent.
You may end a fixed-price engagement early; you pay for the work completed to that point and we hand over what exists.
On termination we return or delete your data as set out in our data handling page, hand over work you have paid for, and each of us returns the other’s confidential information.
11. General
Subcontracting. We may use subcontractors, and we remain responsible for their work. Any subcontractor handling your data is bound by equivalent confidentiality and data protection terms.
Force majeure. Neither of us is liable for delay caused by events beyond reasonable control. If it lasts more than 60 days, either may terminate.
No partnership. Nothing here creates a partnership, joint venture or employment relationship.
Non-solicitation. Neither of us will solicit the other’s employees during an engagement and for 12 months afterwards. This does not restrict general public advertising. ⚖ Note: Indian courts read restraints of trade narrowly under §27 of the Indian Contract Act 1872. A general public advertising carve-out helps; confirm the rest.
Changes. We may update these terms; the version in force when your engagement starts governs it. Changes to a live engagement need both signatures.
Entire agreement. The proposal, any NDA and DPA, and these terms are the whole agreement between us.
Severability. If any provision of these terms is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part, that provision or part is severed and the remainder continues in full force. Where a limitation or exclusion of liability is held unenforceable, it applies to the maximum extent permitted by law, and its unenforceability does not affect any other limitation or exclusion.
Governing law and jurisdiction. These terms are governed by the laws of India. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
