The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, fees, and responsibilities for a client engagement will be determined by the applicable proposal, statement of work, service agreement, or other written agreement.

3. Use of Our Website

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not interfere with the operation, security, or availability of the website.

5. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the content of this website, including text, graphics, branding, logos, designs, layouts, images, software, and other materials, is owned by or licensed to Awonsa and may be protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You may view and use website content for personal or legitimate business evaluation purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, publish, sell, or create derivative works from our content without appropriate authorization.

Nothing on this website grants you ownership of Awonsa's intellectual property unless expressly stated otherwise in writing.

6. Client Projects and Agreements

When Awonsa provides services to a client, the rights and responsibilities of both parties will normally be established in a separate written agreement.

Such agreements may address matters including:

• Project scope and deliverables.
• Fees and payment terms.
• Project schedules and milestones.
• Client responsibilities.
• Ownership and licensing of deliverables.
• Third-party software and services.
• Support and maintenance.
• Confidentiality.
• Warranties and limitations of liability.

If a separate written agreement conflicts with these website Terms of Service regarding a specific client engagement, the applicable client agreement will control to the extent of that conflict.

7. Third-Party Services

Our website, products, or services may rely on or integrate with third-party platforms, software, infrastructure, APIs, payment providers, hosting providers, analytics services, or other technologies.

Third-party services are generally governed by their own terms and policies. Awonsa is not responsible for changes, interruptions, failures, or policies of third-party services that are outside our reasonable control.

Where a client project depends on third-party services, applicable responsibilities and limitations may be defined in the relevant project agreement.

8. Website Availability

We aim to keep the website available and functioning properly, but we do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or free from security vulnerabilities.

The website may occasionally be unavailable because of maintenance, upgrades, technical issues, third-party failures, network problems, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

9. Disclaimers

Information provided on this website is intended for general informational purposes. While we make reasonable efforts to keep information accurate and useful, we do not guarantee that all website content will always be complete, current, or error-free.

Unless expressly provided in a separate written agreement, the website and its content are provided on an "as available" basis.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Awonsa and its representatives will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of the website.

This may include, where legally permitted, loss of profits, revenue, data, business opportunities, goodwill, or other intangible losses.

Nothing in these terms is intended to exclude or limit liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited under applicable law.

Any liability relating to a specific client engagement may be governed by the applicable written agreement.

11. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable expenses arising from your unlawful use of the website, violation of these terms, or infringement of another person's rights.

This provision does not apply to the extent that a claim results from Awonsa's own unlawful conduct or liability that cannot legally be transferred to you.

12. Termination

We may restrict or suspend access to the website where reasonably necessary to protect our systems, users, business, or legal interests, or where we reasonably believe these terms have been violated.

Termination or suspension of access does not affect rights or obligations that by their nature should continue after termination.

13. Governing Law

These Terms of Service will be interpreted and governed in accordance with the applicable laws of the Republic of the Philippines, unless a separate written agreement provides otherwise.

Any dispute arising from these terms will be subject to the applicable courts and dispute-resolution procedures permitted by Philippine law.

We may update these Terms of Service from time to time to reflect changes to our website, services, business practices, or applicable legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
