These general terms cover the public website. A separate agreement may apply to a particular product, purchase, or client engagement.
About these terms
These terms govern your access to the Smart Hive Labs website and general services. By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you are using it for an organization, you confirm you are authorized to act for that organization. A signed proposal, statement of work, product agreement, or other written contract may set additional terms for a specific engagement; that agreement controls where it conflicts with these general terms.
Using the website
You may use the website for lawful purposes and in a way that does not disrupt it or interfere with other people’s use. You must not attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, scrape or misuse personal information, misrepresent your identity, or use the website to violate another person’s rights or applicable law.
Enquiries and proposals
Submitting a contact or quote request does not create a client relationship or require either party to proceed. Any scope, deliverables, fees, schedule, payment terms, acceptance criteria, support, and ownership arrangements for paid work should be confirmed in a separate written agreement.
Intellectual property
The website and its content, branding, designs, and software are owned by Smart Hive Labs or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and share links to public pages for personal or business reference. You may not reproduce, adapt, distribute, or commercially exploit site materials without prior written permission. Ownership and licensing of work created for a client are governed by the applicable project agreement.
Third-party services
The website may link to or rely on third-party services. Those services are provided under their own terms, and Smart Hive Labs does not control or guarantee their availability, content, or practices.
Availability and changes
We may change, suspend, or remove website features or content at any time. We aim to keep information useful and current but do not promise that every page will always be complete, error-free, or available without interruption.
Disclaimers
To the extent permitted by law, the website is provided on an ‘as available’ basis. General website content is informational and is not professional, legal, financial, or security advice. Any services we provide are governed by their specific written agreement.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Smart Hive Labs is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss, or loss of data, profits, revenue, goodwill, or business opportunity arising from use of the general website. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for fraud or intentional misconduct.
Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you are responsible for claims and losses caused by your unlawful use of the website, your breach of these terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.
Suspension and termination
We may restrict or suspend access where reasonably necessary to protect the website, users, or our rights, or to address a breach of these terms. Sections that by their nature should continue after access ends will remain in effect.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws applicable in Ghana, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The courts of Ghana will have jurisdiction, subject to any mandatory rights or protections that apply where you live.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms by posting a revised version here. The updated effective date will appear at the top of this page. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms. Questions can be sent to support@smarthivelabs.dev.
