1. Parties & acceptance. These terms govern every engagement between InfraCoreSys, 16 BOULEVARD GARIBALDI, 75015 PARIS, FRANCE, and the client identified in the applicable statement of work (SOW). Commencing an engagement, or paying an InfraCoreSys invoice, constitutes acceptance of these terms and the referenced policies.
2. Scope. Services are defined in the SOW: audits, Infrastructure-as-Code migrations, Kubernetes hardening, CI/CD engineering, cost optimization, observability, disaster recovery, and SRE retainers. Changes to scope, timeline, or price require a written change order signed by both parties.
3. Fees & payment. Fixed-fee work is invoiced 50% at kickoff and 50% at handover unless the SOW states otherwise; retainers are invoiced monthly in advance. Invoices are payable within 10 calendar days via our secure Stripe checkout, reachable through any Pay link on this site. Late balances accrue 1.5% interest per month or the maximum permitted by French law, whichever is lower.
4. Delivery & cooperation. Turnaround dates quoted on the services timeline start on the kickoff date and assume timely access to accounts, repositories, and decision-makers. Delays in client access extend delivery day-for-day. Acceptance occurs when the client signs the handover record or uses the deliverables in production without written objection within 10 business days.
5. Intellectual property. Upon full payment, InfraCoreSys assigns to the client all worldwide rights in client-specific deliverables — infrastructure code, pipelines, runbooks, and dashboards — excluding InfraCoreSys background tooling, frameworks, and reusable modules, which are licensed to the client perpetually and royalty-free for internal use.
6. Confidentiality. Each party protects the other's confidential information with at least the care it uses for its own, for three years after disclosure. Source credentials and production data remain the client's exclusive property.
7. Warranties & availability. Deliverables conform materially to the SOW for 30 days after handover; remedies are correction or, at our option, a proportional refund. Retainer clients receive a 99.99% monthly uptime commitment on InfraCoreSys-managed control planes, with service credits per the SLA annex.
8. Liability. InfraCoreSys is liable only for direct, foreseeable damage and its aggregate liability is capped at the fees paid by the client in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect loss, lost profits, or third-party platform outages beyond our control. Nothing limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or personal injury.
9. Termination. Either party may terminate for material breach not cured within 15 days of written notice. Retainers may be cancelled before the next billing cycle. On termination, completed milestones remain payable and all client data is returned or erased within 30 days at the client's election.
10. Governing law. These terms are governed by French law. Disputes are first escalated to good-faith negotiation for 30 days, then submitted to the competent courts of Paris, France. Consumers retain any mandatory protections of their home jurisdiction.
