Terms & Conditions

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern all services provided by Linzila – Design & Development (“Linzila”, “we”, “us”, “our”) to any client, customer, business, organisation, agency, or project partner (“Client”, “you”, “your”).

By commissioning, purchasing, approving, accessing, or using our services, you agree to these Terms together with any applicable proposal, quotation, statement of work, order, invoice, service agreement, Data Processing Agreement, or other written agreement between you and Linzila.

1. Services

Linzila provides digital design, development, optimisation, and support services, including but not limited to:

Web Design & Development

E-Commerce Development

SEO, AI & Search Visibility

Maintenance & Support

Depending on the agreed project or service, we may also provide hosting administration, domain management, website migration, custom development, plugins, integrations, APIs, automation, analytics, tracking, email configuration, CRM integrations, consulting, technical support, performance optimisation, security-related services, content implementation, and other related digital services.

The exact scope of services, pricing, timelines, deliverables, responsibilities, and exclusions will be defined in writing before or during the engagement.

Services not specifically included in an agreed scope are not automatically included.

2. Proposals, Scope, and Agreement of Services

Scope, pricing, timelines, deliverables, assumptions, and responsibilities may be agreed through a proposal, statement of work, quotation, email confirmation, project-management system, invoice description, service plan, or other written communication.

Only items expressly included in the agreed scope are included in the price.

Requests outside the agreed scope may be treated as change requests and may result in additional fees and adjusted timelines.

Where there is a conflict between these Terms and a separately signed agreement, the separately signed agreement will prevail to the extent of the conflict.

3. Client Responsibilities

You are responsible for providing accurate and complete information, content, credentials, approvals, feedback, access, and other materials reasonably required for us to perform the services.

You must provide approvals and feedback within a reasonable period.

Delays in receiving information, approvals, credentials, content, payments, or feedback may result in project delays or rescheduling.

You are responsible for ensuring that your business activities, products, services, content, claims, prices, offers, policies, and use of the completed work comply with applicable laws, regulations, industry requirements, and platform policies.

You must maintain secure passwords and appropriately manage access provided to employees, contractors, agencies, and other third parties.

4. Web Design & Development

Web Design & Development services may include website design, user experience, development, responsive implementation, CMS configuration, WordPress development, custom functionality, integrations, performance optimisation, migrations, and related services where agreed.

Unless expressly included, website projects do not automatically include ongoing maintenance, hosting, content creation, SEO, legal compliance review, accessibility certification, security monitoring, premium third-party licences, or future compatibility work.

Websites may rely on browsers, operating systems, devices, hosting environments, frameworks, plugins, themes, APIs, libraries, and third-party technologies that change over time.

We cannot guarantee that a website or functionality will remain permanently compatible with all future versions of third-party technologies without maintenance or additional development.

5. E-Commerce Development

E-Commerce Development may include WooCommerce or other e-commerce platforms, product configuration, checkout functionality, payment integrations, shipping integrations, membership or subscription functionality, ERP integrations, inventory systems, warehouse integrations, tax settings, and related services where agreed.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, Linzila is not the merchant of record, seller of the Client’s products or services, payment processor, shipping provider, tax adviser, or consumer-contracting party.

You are responsible for:

Product and service information

Prices and discounts

VAT and other applicable taxes

Shipping terms and charges

Refunds and returns

Warranty information

Consumer rights

Product legality

Product availability

Inventory accuracy

Terms of sale

Privacy and cookie compliance

Other legal requirements relating to your e-commerce business

Payment processing is generally performed by third-party payment providers.

We are not responsible for payment-provider outages, declined transactions, fraud assessments, chargebacks, withheld funds, payment-provider account restrictions, verification requirements, or changes imposed by payment providers.

Where an e-commerce website connects to external inventory, ERP, warehouse, shipping, accounting, CRM, marketplace, or other systems, information depends on data supplied by those third-party systems.

We are not responsible for incorrect inventory, product, shipping, customer, pricing, order, or other information originating from third-party systems.

Changes to WooCommerce, payment gateways, APIs, plugins, external services, regulatory requirements, or third-party systems may require additional development or configuration.

6. SEO, AI & Search Visibility

SEO, AI & Search Visibility services may include technical SEO, on-page optimisation, structured data, content optimisation, keyword research, search-engine visibility, AI-search optimisation, search architecture, indexing improvements, analytics, content recommendations, and related services where agreed.

Search engines, AI systems, answer engines, social platforms, directories, and other discovery systems are controlled by third parties.

We do not control their algorithms, indexing systems, ranking systems, crawling behaviour, training data, citations, recommendations, search-result layouts, or platform policies.

We therefore do not guarantee:

Search-engine rankings

Specific keyword positions

Indexing of any particular page

Organic traffic levels

Leads or sales

Conversion rates

Featured snippets

AI citations

AI-generated recommendations

Mentions in AI-generated answers

Inclusion in AI summaries

Google AI features

Bing or other search-engine visibility

Visibility within large language model or AI search platforms

Any particular level of traffic, exposure, revenue, or commercial performance

Search engines and AI platforms may change their algorithms, systems, policies, features, and presentation without notice.

Any forecasts, estimates, projections, expected results, keyword opportunities, traffic estimates, or similar information provided by Linzila are for planning purposes only and are not guarantees.

7. AI and Automated Technologies

Our services may use or integrate artificial intelligence, machine learning, automated systems, third-party APIs, language models, content-generation tools, translation tools, search technologies, or other automated technologies.

Outputs from such systems may contain inaccuracies, omissions, outdated information, unexpected results, or content requiring human review.

Where AI-assisted content, code, recommendations, translations, summaries, metadata, structured information, or other outputs are prepared as part of our services, you remain responsible for reviewing and approving final materials before publication or business use unless otherwise agreed.

AI-generated or AI-assisted outputs should not be relied upon as legal, financial, medical, tax, regulatory, or other regulated professional advice.

Third-party AI providers may change their models, APIs, functionality, pricing, availability, data-processing practices, policies, or service terms.

We are not responsible for disruptions or changes caused by third-party AI providers.

We do not guarantee that AI systems will discover, cite, recommend, rank, mention, reproduce, or otherwise display your website, content, brand, products, or services.

8. Maintenance & Support

Maintenance & Support services are limited to the services included in the applicable maintenance plan, service agreement, quotation, or written scope.

Maintenance may include selected updates, monitoring, backups, troubleshooting, compatibility checks, security-related measures, content changes, technical support, or other services depending on the contracted plan.

Maintenance does not automatically include:

New functionality

New pages or major content additions

Website redesigns

Major layout changes

New integrations

Replacement of obsolete systems

Major version migrations

Rebuilding third-party functionality

Extensive malware recovery

SEO campaigns

Content creation

Emergency or out-of-hours work

Work caused by unauthorised third-party modifications

Work outside the contracted maintenance scope

Such work may be quoted and billed separately.

A support response time is not a guarantee that an issue will be fully resolved within that time.

Some issues require investigation, third-party assistance, software updates, external-provider action, or additional development.

We cannot guarantee that maintenance will prevent all downtime, hacking, malware, data loss, software conflicts, compatibility problems, or third-party failures.

9. Hosting and Server Services

Hosting services apply only where hosting or hosting management is specifically contracted.

Hosting may be provided directly through infrastructure managed by Linzila or through third-party hosting providers.

Where third-party infrastructure is used, the underlying infrastructure remains subject to the third-party provider’s terms, technical limitations, availability, and service levels.

We are not responsible for failures originating solely from infrastructure or systems controlled by third-party hosting providers, domain registries, DNS providers, data centres, internet providers, or similar third parties.

a) Email storage

Unless otherwise agreed, email storage limits depend on the hosting or email plan selected.

Where a specific storage limit is stated in a quotation, plan, or agreement, that limit will apply.

b) Resource limits

Hosting may be subject to limits including disk space, bandwidth, monthly visits, databases, email storage, RAM, CPU usage, processing limits, inode limits, or other infrastructure restrictions.

Exceeding applicable limits may require an upgrade or may result in temporary restrictions required to protect infrastructure or other users.

c) Client modifications

You may not modify or remove critical files, databases, server configurations, security configurations, or infrastructure settings on systems controlled by Linzila without prior authorisation.

Unauthorised modifications may result in suspension of support, additional recovery fees, or termination where necessary to protect the service.

d) Security

Where Linzila directly manages infrastructure, we will apply reasonable administrative and technical security measures appropriate to the contracted service.

Where infrastructure is supplied by a third party, server-level security and availability may also depend on that provider.

e) Permitted use

Hosting may not be used for unlawful activities, malicious software, abusive behaviour, spam, prohibited content, copyright infringement, excessive resource consumption, or activities that place other users or infrastructure at risk.

10. Backups and Data Restoration

Backup availability, frequency, retention, and storage depend on the contracted service and hosting environment.

No backup system can guarantee complete protection against data loss.

Backups may fail, become corrupted, be incomplete, be unavailable, or not contain the latest version of data.

Unless specifically included in a contracted service, Linzila does not guarantee permanent backup retention.

Clients with business-critical systems, including active e-commerce websites, should maintain appropriate independent backup and recovery arrangements where necessary.

Restoration work may be billable unless included within the applicable maintenance or hosting plan.

11. Third-Party Platforms, Plugins, Themes, APIs, and Integrations

Our services may depend on third-party products and services, including but not limited to:

WordPress

WooCommerce

Plugins and themes

Payment gateways

Advertising platforms

Analytics platforms

Search engines

AI platforms

Email services

Hosting providers

Domain providers

CRM platforms

ERP systems

Warehouse systems

Shipping platforms

Accounting systems

Social media platforms

Cloud services

APIs

Libraries and open-source software

Third-party products are governed by their own terms, licences, privacy policies, service availability, technical limitations, and pricing.

We are not responsible for problems caused by third-party components, including:

Updates

Compatibility issues

Security vulnerabilities

Service outages

API changes

Removed functionality

Pricing changes

Licence changes

Account restrictions

Account suspensions

Policy changes

Discontinued services

Authentication changes

Rate limits

Data errors

We may recommend replacement, redevelopment, upgrading, or additional work where a third-party product becomes incompatible, unsupported, insecure, discontinued, or unsuitable.

Such work is not automatically included in the original project or maintenance fee.

12. Third-Party Licences and Expenses

Premium plugins, themes, stock assets, fonts, APIs, domains, hosting services, payment services, AI services, email services, verification services, advertising spend, and other external products may involve separate costs.

Unless expressly included in writing, you are responsible for these costs.

Where Linzila purchases a third-party product on your behalf, its continued availability may depend on renewal, subscription, or licence terms imposed by the third-party provider.

We do not guarantee that third-party licences purchased or supplied for a project will remain available indefinitely.

13. Content and Legal Compliance

You are responsible for the accuracy, legality, ownership, and suitability of content supplied to us.

This includes business claims, product descriptions, pricing, offers, advertising claims, legal notices, terms, privacy notices, cookie information, images, videos, graphics, testimonials, and other materials.

Unless separately agreed in writing, Linzila does not provide legal, tax, accounting, medical, regulatory, or financial advice.

Templates, technical implementations, or general recommendations relating to privacy notices, cookies, consent systems, terms, accessibility, e-commerce rules, or other compliance topics do not constitute legal advice.

You should obtain professional legal or regulatory advice where required.

We may refuse, suspend, or remove work that we reasonably believe is unlawful, deceptive, infringing, unsafe, or contrary to platform policies.

14. Client-Provided and Third-Party Content

You are responsible for ensuring that content, images, videos, graphics, fonts, logos, trademarks, text, documents, data, and other materials supplied by you are owned by you or properly licensed for the intended use.

We are not required to independently verify ownership or licensing of materials you provide.

If materials originate from your clients, partners, suppliers, employees, contractors, or other third parties, you remain responsible for obtaining the necessary permissions and licences.

We are not liable for claims arising from unlicensed, unauthorised, misleading, defamatory, infringing, or otherwise unlawful materials supplied by you or parties acting on your behalf.

Where we identify suspected infringement or legal risk, we may refuse to publish, remove, or request replacement of the affected content.

15. Stock Assets and Licensed Materials

Where we source stock images, fonts, icons, plugins, libraries, design elements, software, or other licensed materials, those materials remain subject to the applicable third-party licence.

Unless otherwise stated, third-party licences may be limited to the project, domain, brand, installation, or permitted use for which they were purchased.

You are responsible for maintaining or renewing licences after delivery where continued licensing is required.

Third-party assets are not transferred beyond the rights permitted by their respective licences.

16. Revisions, Testing, and Acceptance

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, a project includes up to two (2) reasonable rounds of revisions relating to the originally agreed scope.

A revision is a reasonable modification to agreed work and is not a request for new functionality, a new concept, additional pages, additional integrations, or a material change in scope.

Additional revisions or changes may be billed separately.

You are responsible for reviewing deliverables and notifying us of material defects within seven (7) calendar days of delivery or presentation for acceptance unless another acceptance period is agreed in writing.

If no material issue is reported within that period, the deliverable may be considered accepted.

Minor differences between browsers, devices, operating systems, screen sizes, rendering engines, fonts, and third-party environments do not automatically constitute defects.

17. Warranty and Post-Launch Support

Unless otherwise agreed, we provide a fourteen (14) calendar-day bug-fix period following acceptance or launch for defects that materially deviate from the agreed specification and are directly attributable to our work.

The warranty does not cover issues caused by:

Third-party updates

Plugin or theme updates

CMS updates

Hosting changes

Server changes

API changes

Browser changes

Client modifications

Third-party modifications

New content

Configuration changes

Malware or hacking

Unsupported software

External platform changes

Misuse

New requirements

Changes requested after acceptance

After the applicable support period, work may be billable unless covered by an active Maintenance & Support agreement.

18. Change Requests and Out-of-Scope Work

Work outside the agreed scope will be treated as additional work.

Examples may include:

Additional pages

Additional features

Additional languages

New integrations

New APIs

Additional advertising accounts

Additional funnels

Additional content

Additional templates

Major design changes

Additional revision rounds

Platform migrations

Third-party troubleshooting

Emergency recovery

Additional work will normally be estimated or approved in writing before commencement.

Timelines may be adjusted when the scope changes.

19. Payment and Invoicing

Unless otherwise agreed, invoices are issued in EUR and are payable within fourteen (14) calendar days.

Deposits, retainers, reservation payments, and payments for work already commenced are non-refundable unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly agreed in writing.

Milestone payments are due according to the applicable proposal, invoice, or written agreement.

We may pause work where invoices are overdue.

Late payment may result in reasonable recovery costs, collection costs, statutory interest, or other remedies permitted by applicable law.

Third-party costs already incurred on your behalf remain payable.

20. Suspension for Non-Payment

If an invoice remains unpaid after its due date, we may provide notice and suspend affected services until payment is received.

Suspension may include:

Development work

Maintenance

Support

Hosting under our control

Deployments

Advertising management

SEO activity

AI-related services

Access to systems controlled by Linzila

Other ongoing services

We are not responsible for delays, downtime, lost opportunities, advertising interruptions, ranking changes, or other consequences directly resulting from a lawful suspension for non-payment.

Where technically reasonable, services will be restored after outstanding amounts have been settled.

21. Intellectual Property

a) Ownership before payment

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, unpaid designs, source files, custom code, documentation, concepts, prototypes, configurations, and deliverables remain the property of Linzila until all applicable invoices have been paid in full.

b) Client deliverables

After full payment, you receive the rights expressly stated in the applicable proposal, licence, statement of work, or project agreement.

Where no separate intellectual-property arrangement is stated, you receive a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use the final Client-specific deliverables for their intended business purpose.

c) Linzila technology and reusable components

Linzila retains ownership of pre-existing and reusable intellectual property, including:

Development frameworks

Reusable code

Libraries

Plugins

Modules

Templates

Systems

Internal tools

Automation methods

Technical methods

Processes

Design systems

Reusable components

Documentation frameworks

Know-how

Development techniques

General concepts

Other technology created independently of a specific Client deliverable

The inclusion of such components in a project does not transfer ownership of the underlying Linzila technology.

You receive the right to use such components only as required for the delivered project unless a broader licence is expressly agreed.

d) Custom development

Custom functionality developed specifically for your project may be used as part of the delivered project after full payment.

Unless ownership transfer is expressly agreed in writing, reusable underlying methods, libraries, modules, frameworks, architecture, and general-purpose code remain Linzila property.

e) Working files

Source design files, development environments, internal documentation, internal tools, prototypes, drafts, project-management information, testing systems, reusable source components, and other working materials are not automatically deliverables unless expressly included.

22. Redistribution, Resale, and Reuse

Unless expressly authorised in writing, you may not resell, rebrand, sublicense, commercially redistribute, publish, or make available Linzila-owned reusable technology, templates, plugins, code libraries, design systems, internal tools, or other protected materials.

Client-specific completed deliverables may be used for their intended project and business purpose subject to the applicable licence.

Reuse of licensed deliverables across unrelated brands, clients, commercial products, marketplaces, public repositories, template libraries, or resale offerings may require a separate licence.

White-label or agency reuse must be governed by an applicable partner or white-label agreement.

Copyright, licence, attribution, or ownership notices embedded in software or licensed materials may not be removed where removal would breach the applicable licence or agreement.

23. Partner and White-Label Services

Linzila may provide development, design, maintenance, support, hosting administration, consulting, or other services to agencies, consultants, resellers, and business partners.

Where services are supplied in a partner or white-label arrangement, Linzila’s contractual relationship is with the contracting partner unless otherwise agreed.

The partner is responsible for its relationship with its end client, including:

Client communications

Commercial terms

Legal compliance

Pricing

Promises made to the end client

Scope communicated to the end client

Approval processes

Collection of required permissions

End-client content

We are not responsible for disputes between a partner and its end client unless Linzila is separately a contractual party to that relationship.

Partner pricing, white-label rights, reuse rights, confidentiality requirements, attribution arrangements, and support obligations may be governed by a separate partner agreement.

24. CRM and Service Communications

Where reasonably necessary for managing our business relationship, we may store Client contact information and project-related information within our CRM, accounting systems, project-management systems, support systems, and other business tools.

We may send service communications relating to:

Projects

Support requests

Approvals

Access requirements

Invoices

Payments

Maintenance

Hosting

Security

Renewals

Service changes

Other matters necessary to manage the business relationship

Service communications are separate from optional marketing communications.

You are responsible for keeping your contact details accurate and current.

Personal data is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection requirements.

25. Data Protection

Each party will comply with applicable data-protection obligations relevant to its role.

Where Linzila processes personal data solely on your documented instructions and acts as a processor on your behalf, the parties will enter into an appropriate Data Processing Agreement where required.

You are responsible for determining the lawful basis, purpose, scope, retention, and legal requirements relating to personal data collected through your website, store, forms, membership systems, CRM, events, analytics, marketing systems, or other services.

Where applicable, you are responsible for ensuring that appropriate privacy information, cookie information, consent mechanisms, contractual documentation, and legal notices are implemented.

We will apply reasonable technical and organisational measures appropriate to the services we provide.

Where we become aware of a personal-data breach affecting data processed by us on your behalf, we will communicate relevant information without undue delay where required.

Third-party processors and platforms remain subject to their respective data-processing terms.

26. Security, Hacking, Malware, and Security Incidents

We apply reasonable security practices appropriate to services under our control, but no website, server, application, network, account, cloud service, email system, or other technology can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We are not responsible for hacking, malware, ransomware, phishing, credential theft, DDoS attacks, unauthorised access, compromised third-party software, zero-day vulnerabilities, or similar security events where they are outside our reasonable control or not caused by our breach of an agreed obligation.

Security may depend on:

Passwords

Multi-factor authentication

User behaviour

Client devices

Employee access

Third-party providers

Hosting systems

Plugins and themes

Software updates

External APIs

Account permissions

Network security

Other factors outside our direct control

You must promptly inform us of suspected security incidents affecting systems that we manage.

27. Restoration and Emergency Work

Unless expressly included in an active service agreement, restoration, malware removal, incident investigation, emergency recovery, data recovery, website rebuilding, server troubleshooting, account recovery, security remediation, or similar extraordinary work is not included in standard project pricing.

Such work may be billed separately at our then-current rates together with applicable third-party costs.

We cannot guarantee complete recovery of:

Data

Website functionality

Orders

Customer information

Emails

Integrations

Search rankings

Analytics history

Configurations

Files

Databases

Other digital information

Recovery depends on available backups, system condition, third-party services, and the nature of the incident.

Urgent, emergency, weekend, holiday, or out-of-hours work may be subject to additional fees where agreed.

28. Marketing and Performance Disclaimer

Business, marketing, advertising, SEO, website, e-commerce, conversion, and AI visibility results depend on many factors outside our control.

Expected savings

We are not responsible for delays, failures, or interruptions caused by third parties, internet outages, infrastructure providers, external platforms, security incidents outside our reasonable control, Client delays, or force-majeure events.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our aggregate liability arising from a claim relating to the services will not exceed the total fees paid by you to Linzila for the affected services during the six (6) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

30. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Linzila, its directors, employees, contractors, and agents against third-party claims, liabilities, damages, and reasonable costs arising from:

Illegal products or services

Misleading business claims

Violation of platform policies

Misuse of delivered services

Your breach of applicable law

Your breach of these Terms

Unauthorised modifications made by you or third parties acting on your behalf

This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim is directly caused by Linzila’s own unlawful conduct.

31. Confidentiality

Each party will keep confidential non-public business, technical, commercial, financial, security, and project information received from the other party.

Confidential information may be used only as reasonably necessary to perform or receive services under the agreement.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that:

Is publicly available without breach

Was lawfully known before disclosure

Was independently developed

Was lawfully obtained from another source

Must be disclosed by law or competent authority

Unless otherwise agreed, confidentiality obligations continue for three (3) years after termination.

Trade secrets and information protected for a longer period under applicable law remain protected accordingly.

32. Portfolio, Client Name, and Attribution

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Linzila may display and describe completed public work within:

Our website

Portfolio

Case studies

Social media

Presentations

Proposals

Capability materials

Client lists

We may use your business name, logo, publicly available screenshots, and general project descriptions for these purposes.

We will not intentionally publish confidential or non-public Client information.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, we may include a discreet attribution such as “Website by Linzila” or similar credit on work created by us.

Where removal of an agreed attribution requires additional technical work, that work may be billable.

33. Non-Solicitation and Non-Circumvention

During an active engagement and for twelve (12) months following its conclusion, you agree not to intentionally circumvent Linzila for the primary purpose of directly contracting an employee or contractor introduced through and materially involved in your Linzila project, where doing so is intended to replace Linzila’s contracted services.

Any separate compensation or contractual remedy relating to such conduct will apply only where expressly agreed in writing and to the extent enforceable under applicable law.

This provision does not prevent general recruitment campaigns or engagement with individuals with whom you had a documented independent relationship before their involvement through Linzila.

34. Non-Exclusivity

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the relationship between Linzila and the Client is non-exclusive.

We may provide similar services to other businesses, including businesses operating in the same or competing industries.

We will continue to respect applicable confidentiality obligations.

35. Force Majeure

Neither party will be liable for delay or failure to perform obligations caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

Such circumstances may include:

Natural disasters

War

Terrorism

Civil unrest

Government actions

Strikes

Pandemics

Internet outages

Utility outages

Data-centre failures

Major third-party platform failures

Cyberattacks of an extraordinary nature

Other events beyond reasonable control

Affected deadlines and performance periods may be reasonably extended for the duration and consequences of the event.

36. Suspension and Termination

Either party may terminate an ongoing service arrangement subject to any notice period, minimum commitment, subscription term, or termination provision stated in the applicable agreement.

Project work already completed or costs already incurred remain payable.

Upon termination:

Outstanding invoices remain due

Work may stop

Ongoing services may be disabled where permitted

Third-party subscriptions may need to be transferred or cancelled

Client access may be returned where appropriate

Deliverables subject to outstanding payment may be withheld to the extent permitted by law

You are responsible for exporting or backing up information held within third-party systems you control.

Termination does not remove obligations relating to payment, intellectual property, confidentiality, liability, licensing, or other provisions intended to survive termination.

37. Unauthorized Use of Linzila Property

Unauthorised copying, distribution, publication, resale, sublicensing, extraction, modification, or commercial exploitation of Linzila-owned materials is prohibited.

This may include:

Design concepts

Reusable code

Plugins

Libraries

Templates

Documentation

Internal systems

Brand assets

Written materials

Licensed technology

Other Linzila intellectual property

Where unauthorised use occurs, Linzila may seek removal, suspension, payment of applicable licence fees, damages, injunctive relief, recovery of reasonable enforcement costs, and other remedies available under applicable law.

Nothing in this section limits any statutory intellectual-property rights or remedies available to Linzila.

38. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

If you dispute an invoice or payment, you should contact us promptly so the matter can be reviewed in good faith.

Where a chargeback or payment dispute is initiated after services have been validly delivered or costs incurred, we may provide project records, communications, approvals, invoices, access logs, delivery evidence, and other relevant information to the applicable payment provider.

You remain responsible for valid amounts due together with reasonable payment-provider or recovery costs to the extent permitted by applicable law.

39. Assignment and Subcontracting

You may not assign material rights or obligations under an active agreement without our prior written consent, except where permitted by applicable law.

Linzila may use employees, contractors, specialist providers, hosting providers, software providers, and other subcontractors where reasonably required to provide the services.

Where we subcontract our own contractual responsibilities, we remain responsible for those responsibilities subject to these Terms.

40. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary where legally possible.

The remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

41. No Waiver

Failure by either party to immediately enforce a right or provision does not constitute a permanent waiver of that right or provision.

A waiver is effective only for the specific matter for which it is given.

42. Entire Agreement

These Terms together with applicable proposals, statements of work, invoices, service agreements, licences, Data Processing Agreements, partner agreements, and other written contractual documents constitute the agreement between Linzila and the Client regarding the applicable services.

They supersede prior discussions or representations relating to the same services except where expressly preserved in writing.

43. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of North Macedonia, subject to any mandatory laws that cannot lawfully be excluded.

The parties will first attempt to resolve disputes through good-faith communication and negotiation.

Where a dispute cannot be resolved, it will be submitted to the competent courts in Skopje, North Macedonia, unless mandatory applicable law requires otherwise.

Linzila may seek appropriate injunctive or protective relief in a competent jurisdiction where reasonably necessary to protect intellectual property, confidential information, systems, or other legal rights.

44. Modifications to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technologies, business practices, legal requirements, third-party platforms, or commercial arrangements.

The current version will be published on our website.

Material changes affecting active ongoing services may also be communicated directly where appropriate.

Changes apply prospectively unless otherwise required by law or agreed between the parties.

45. Contact and Acceptance

Questions regarding these Terms may be submitted through the contact information published on Linzila.com.

By commissioning, purchasing, approving, accessing, or continuing to use Linzila services, you confirm that you have read and accepted these Terms together with any applicable project-specific agreement.
