Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Fruit of Tek website and any related requests for engineering consultations, software delivery, automation design, IoT integration, captive network systems, and technical advisory services.

1. Scope of Services

Fruit of Tek provides technical consulting, software engineering, embedded and IoT integration support, system architecture planning, and related delivery services. Any actual project engagement, implementation scope, pricing, support level, and timeline are controlled by a separate written proposal, statement of work, quotation, or service agreement.

2. Website Use

You may use this website only for lawful business, evaluation, and communication purposes. You may not attempt to disrupt the site, interfere with its forms, scrape protected content at abusive volume, probe infrastructure without authorization, or misrepresent your identity when submitting inquiries.

3. Inquiry Submission

When you submit a form, consultation request, or contact message, you agree that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge and does not violate any confidentiality or disclosure restrictions that prevent you from sharing it with Fruit of Tek.

4. Proposals and Commercial Terms

Information presented on this website, including service descriptions, architecture patterns, pricing illustrations, timelines, and operational examples, is for general informational purposes only and does not create a binding offer. Binding commitments arise only after written acceptance of specific commercial terms.

5. Client Responsibilities

Clients are responsible for timely access to relevant environments, credentials, hardware, project stakeholders, decision-makers, and source materials required for delivery. Delays in approvals, infrastructure access, or dependencies may affect quoted schedules.

6. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Fruit of Tek retains ownership of its pre-existing tools, libraries, templates, internal frameworks, methodologies, know-how, and reusable delivery assets. Ownership and licensing of project-specific deliverables must be defined in the governing service agreement.

7. Third-Party Systems

Projects may involve third-party hosting providers, APIs, device vendors, telecom environments, registries, analytics tools, and software dependencies. Fruit of Tek is not responsible for outages, pricing changes, platform restrictions, or policy decisions made by third-party providers outside its direct control.

8. Warranties and Availability

This website and its contents are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Fruit of Tek disclaims implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and uninterrupted availability, except where otherwise expressly stated in a signed agreement.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Fruit of Tek will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from website use, inquiry submission, lost business opportunity, lost data, lost profits, or third-party service failure. Any direct liability must be limited as set out in the applicable signed engagement agreement.

10. Confidentiality

Submitting information through this website does not by itself create a non-disclosure agreement. If you need protected handling for sensitive technical, commercial, or regulated information, contact Fruit of Tek first to establish the appropriate confidentiality terms before disclosure.

11. Compliance and Regulated Environments

If your project operates in a regulated environment, including health, financial, telecom, or critical infrastructure contexts, you remain responsible for identifying applicable legal, contractual, and operational compliance requirements. Fruit of Tek can support implementation planning, but compliance obligations must be defined explicitly in project documents.

12. Suspension or Refusal of Service

Fruit of Tek may suspend, refuse, or discontinue responses to inquiries that appear abusive, fraudulent, technically harmful, unlawful, or outside its delivery scope.

13. Governing Terms

If a separate signed agreement exists between you and Fruit of Tek, that agreement controls over these website terms to the extent of any conflict.

14. Changes to These Terms

Fruit of Tek may update these terms from time to time by publishing a revised version on this page. The effective date above will reflect the most recent update.
