Velorabyte provides bespoke digital services including websites, software systems, automation, digital products, and strategy/consulting, as described on the Website. Specific scope, deliverables, timelines, and fees for any engagement are set out in a separate written proposal, quotation, statement of work, or service agreement ("Engagement Terms") agreed between Velorabyte and the Client, which forms part of, and takes precedence over, these Terms in case of conflict for that engagement.

Ownership of deliverables created for a Client under a specific Engagement (e.g., a website or software built for that Client) is governed by the applicable Engagement Terms, and typically transfers to the Client upon full payment unless otherwise agreed in writing. Velorabyte retains the right to showcase completed work in its portfolio unless the Client requests confidentiality in writing.

11. Careers and Freelance Engagements

Our Careers page allows individuals to apply for open positions (full-time or freelance) or to join a talent pool for future opportunities. Submitting an application or joining the talent pool does not create any employment, contractor, or other relationship between you and Velorabyte, and does not guarantee an interview, offer, or engagement of any kind.

• Velorabyte may close, edit, or remove any position listed on the Careers page at any time without notice.

12. Disclaimers

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India.

If unresolved within 30 days, the dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with a sole arbitrator appointed by mutual agreement, seat and venue of arbitration at Surat, Gujarat, India, and proceedings conducted in English. Subject to the above, the courts at Surat, Gujarat shall have exclusive jurisdiction.
