Contractual Terms

Terms and Conditions of Sale

Terms applicable to the web development and SEO services provided by Jacques Tsiorimalala.

1. Purpose and scope

These terms and conditions of sale ("Terms") govern the contractual relationship between Jacques Tsiorimalala, sole proprietor (NIF 501 151 590 50, STAT 70209 11 2023 0 05488, Antananarivo, Madagascar), hereinafter "the Provider", and any individual or legal entity, hereinafter "the Client", who orders a web development, SEO, or related service.

Any order implies unconditional acceptance of these Terms, which take precedence over any other document provided by the Client, unless expressly and jointly agreed otherwise in writing signed by both parties for a specific clause.

2. Quotes and formation of the contract

Each service is the subject of a written quote detailing the scope, estimated timeline and price. The quote is valid for 30 days from its date of issue, unless otherwise stated.

The contract is formed upon the Provider's receipt of the Client's written agreement to the quote (signature, confirmation email, or payment of the agreed deposit).

3. Price and payment terms

Prices are stated in euros, exclusive of any applicable taxes depending on the nature and location of the parties. Unless otherwise stated in the quote:

  • A deposit of 30 to 50% of the total amount is required upon ordering.
  • The balance is invoiced upon delivery of the service, or according to a payment schedule specified in the quote for longer engagements.
  • Invoices are payable within 15 days of issue, by bank transfer or any other means agreed between the parties.

Any late payment may give rise to penalties calculated in accordance with the regulations applicable to the contract, as well as the suspension of ongoing services until the situation is regularized.

4. Delivery timelines

The timelines stated in the quote are indicative and run from the receipt of all elements necessary for the performance of the service (content, access, approvals). A delay by the Client in providing these elements results in a proportional postponement of the delivery timeline, without the Provider's liability being engaged.

5. Provider's obligations

The Provider undertakes to perform the service with care and according to best practices, within the scope defined in the quote. The Provider is bound by an obligation of means, unless an explicit contractual commitment to a result is made for a precisely defined deliverable.

With respect to SEO services, the Provider does not guarantee any specific search engine ranking result, as the ranking algorithm is not under the control of any provider. The Provider does, however, commit to the method applied and to the deliverables agreed upon in the quote.

6. Client's obligations

The Client undertakes to:

  • Provide, within the agreed timeframes, the information, content and access necessary for the performance of the service.
  • Validate the intermediate milestones set out in the quote within a reasonable time.
  • Ensure they hold the necessary rights to the content (text, images, trademarks) they provide to the Provider.
  • Pay the amounts due according to the agreed terms.

7. Intellectual property and assignment of rights

Unless otherwise stated in the quote, the source code developed specifically for the Client is transferred to them exclusively upon full payment of the agreed price. This transfer applies to the custom-developed code; it does not extend to third-party libraries, frameworks or tools under open-source or proprietary licenses used in the course of development, which remain governed by their own licenses.

The Provider retains the right to mention the completed project in their portfolio (case studies, references), unless the Client requests otherwise in writing for reasons of confidentiality.

8. Confidentiality

Each party undertakes to keep confidential any non-public information it becomes aware of in the course of performing the service, and not to disclose it to third parties without prior agreement, except where required by law.

9. Liability

The Provider's liability may only be engaged in the event of proven fault in the performance of the service, and is limited to the amount actually received for the service in question. The Provider cannot be held liable for indirect damages, nor for the Client's use of the deliverables after they have been handed over.

10. Warranty and maintenance

Unless otherwise stated in the quote, a 30-day warranty period following delivery covers the correction of defects falling within the original scope of the quote. Any functional enhancement, ongoing maintenance or hosting beyond this period is the subject of a separate service, to be agreed upon separately.

11. Termination

For longer engagements billed on a time-and-materials or subscription basis, either party may end the collaboration subject to reasonable notice as agreed in the quote. Services already performed but not yet invoiced remain due on a pro rata basis for the time actually worked.

12. Right of withdrawal

In accordance with the French Consumer Code, the 14-day right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts concluded between professionals in the course of their business activity. If the Client acts as a consumer within the meaning of applicable law, this right may apply under the legally prescribed conditions, except for services whose performance has begun with the Client's express agreement before the withdrawal period has expired.

13. Applicable law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by French law. Any dispute relating to their interpretation or performance shall, failing an amicable resolution, be brought before the competent courts, subject to any mandatory provisions applicable where the client is a consumer, who may bring proceedings before the court of their place of residence.
