Status of this document
DraftIndicative copy, still with review. It describes how we intend to work and is not yet a binding statement — email hello@bitsofbytes.co.nz with any question in the meantime.
Clause 1.Scope
These terms apply to the use of this website. Consulting and development work is governed by a separate written engagement agreement signed by both parties, which prevails over these terms in the event of conflict.
Clause 2.Website content
Content on this site is provided for general information. It does not constitute technical, legal or financial advice, and should not be relied on as such without engaging us directly.
Clause 3.Intellectual property
The Bits of Bytes name, logo and site content are owned by Bits of Bytes Limited. Ownership of deliverables produced under an engagement is set out in that engagement's agreement — by default, the client owns the code.
Clause 4.Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Bits of Bytes Limited is not liable for any loss arising from use of this website. Nothing in these terms limits rights you may have under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or Fair Trading Act 1986 where those apply.
Clause 5.Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New Zealand courts.
Clause 6.Contact
