7. Confidentiality
Both parties agree to treat non-public business information shared during the engagement as confidential and use it only for the purpose of performing the Services. This obligation survives termination for 3 years. Standard exceptions apply (information already public, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law).
8. Warranties & Disclaimers
- We warrant that Services will be performed with reasonable care and skill in accordance with industry best practices.
- No ranking guarantees. SEO outcomes depend on factors outside our control, including search engine algorithm changes, competitor activity, your industry, and prior site history. We do not guarantee specific keyword rankings, traffic levels, conversion rates, or revenue outcomes.

10. Termination
- For convenience: Either party may terminate an ongoing engagement with 30 days' written notice unless the SOW specifies otherwise.
- For cause: Either party may terminate immediately for material breach that is not cured within 14 days of written notice.
- Effect of termination: You pay for work performed up to the termination date. We deliver work-in-progress and transfer credentials/assets owned by you. Confidentiality and IP terms survive termination.
11. Dispute Resolution & Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Georgia, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The parties will first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation for 30 days, then mediation. If unresolved, the dispute will be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Tbilisi, Georgia.
