Terms of Service

Last updated: May 16, 2026

These Terms of Service govern your use of Chloriqa's website and custom software development services. Please read them carefully before engaging with us.

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing Chloriqa's website or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not use our website or services.

These terms constitute a binding legal agreement between you ("Client," "you," or "your") and Chloriqa ("we," "our," or "us").

2. Service Description

Chloriqa provides custom software development services, including web design, development, and digital system creation for businesses across Pakistan.

All services are tailored to client specifications as outlined in formal project proposals. Services are delivered remotely unless otherwise agreed in writing.

3. Project Scope & Proposals

All services are based on formal project proposals that define scope, deliverables, timelines, and pricing. Work is performed according to the specifications agreed upon in the signed proposal.

Any changes to project scope, features, or deliverables require a written amendment to the original proposal. Additional work outside the agreed scope may incur additional fees.

Chloriqa delivers projects based on the agreed specifications. Features or functionality not included in the signed proposal are not part of the deliverable unless added through a formal scope amendment.

4. Payment Terms

Our standard payment structure is as follows:

  • 40% advance: Due before work begins. This payment confirms your commitment to the project.
  • 20% at 50% milestone: Due when design is approved and the frontend is live on the staging environment.
  • 40% on final delivery: Due upon project completion and client sign-off.

Payment schedules may vary for specific projects as outlined in your signed proposal. Late payments may delay project delivery.

5. Refund Policy

Refunds are available only if no development work has started on your project. Once work begins, all payments are non-refundable.

To request a refund, contact us at hello@chloriqa.com. Refund requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis and processed within a reasonable timeframe if eligible.

6. Intellectual Property Rights

Upon receipt of full payment, the client owns all custom code and design created specifically for their project.

Chloriqa retains ownership of general methodologies, frameworks, pre-built components, and tools developed independently of any client project.

Clients may not resell, redistribute, or sublicense Chloriqa's proprietary tools, templates, or internal frameworks without written permission.

7. Client Responsibilities

As a client, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate information, content, and project requirements in a timely manner
  • Provide feedback and approvals within agreed timelines to avoid project delays
  • Protect login credentials, hosting access, and account information related to your project
  • Not use our services for illegal, harmful, or unauthorized purposes

Delays caused by late client feedback or missing materials may affect project timelines and are the client's responsibility.

8. Warranty & Liability

Chloriqa warrants that delivered systems will function as described in the signed project proposal for a period of 30 days following final delivery. During this period, we will fix bugs and issues attributable to our development work at no additional cost.

Chloriqa is not liable for:

  • Data loss caused by client negligence or misuse
  • Security breaches resulting from weak passwords, shared credentials, or client-side misconfiguration
  • Failures or downtime of third-party services (including Gmail, Stripe, Google Analytics, and hosting providers)

Chloriqa's total liability for any claim arising from our services is limited to the total amount paid by the client for the specific project in question.

9. Termination

Either party may terminate a project agreement with 30 days written notice to the other party.

If a client violates these terms, Chloriqa may require the client to remedy the violation within 30 days before termination takes effect.

Upon termination, the client is responsible for retrieving all project files and materials delivered up to the termination date. The refund policy stated in Section 5 applies to any eligible refund requests.

10. Dispute Resolution

In the event of a dispute, both parties agree to first attempt resolution through good-faith mediation and direct communication.

If mediation fails to resolve the dispute within a reasonable period, the matter will be governed by and resolved under the laws of Pakistan.

Both parties agree to make a genuine effort to resolve disputes amicably before pursuing formal legal action.

11. Confidentiality

Chloriqa will keep all client business information, project details, and proprietary data confidential and will not disclose it to third parties without consent, except as required by law.

Clients agree to keep Chloriqa's proprietary methodologies, internal processes, pricing structures, and technical frameworks confidential.

12. Third-Party Services

Projects may integrate with third-party tools and services, including but not limited to Stripe, Gmail, Google Analytics, and hosting providers.

Chloriqa is not responsible for the performance, availability, or data handling practices of these third-party services. Clients should review the terms and privacy policies of any third-party services used in their project.

13. Changes to Terms

Chloriqa may update these Terms of Service at any time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
