Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your use of this website and any engagement with OpenClaw Consult ("we", "us", "our", "Adhiraj Hangal"). By using this site or submitting an application, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

1. What this site is

This website is a marketing and intake site for an independent AI automation consultancy. It is not a software product, SaaS platform, or marketplace. Submitting an application does not create a contract — it is an expression of interest that we will evaluate and respond to.

2. Project engagements

Paid work is governed by a separate written agreement (Statement of Work or Service Agreement) signed before any project begins. That document will specify:

• Scope of work and deliverables
• Payment schedule and amounts
• Intellectual property ownership
• Timelines and revision rounds
• Confidentiality obligations

Nothing on this website constitutes a quote, offer, or guarantee of availability.

3. Payments

• All prices are in USD unless stated otherwise in a written agreement.
• Projects typically require a deposit before work begins, as specified in the project agreement.
• Invoices are due on the date specified — typically net 7 or net 14.
• Late payments may result in work being paused until the account is settled.
• We do not offer refunds on completed work, but we will always aim to make things right if there is a genuine issue.

4. Intellectual property

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, upon receipt of full payment you own the custom code and deliverables we build specifically for your project. We retain the right to use general methods, patterns, and non-proprietary techniques in future work. We will never resell your specific implementation to a competitor.

5. What we are not responsible for

We build to the agreed specification. We are not liable for:

• Changes to third-party APIs or platforms (OpenClaw, OpenAI, etc.) that break functionality after handoff.
• Your infrastructure, hosting, or security choices after delivery.
• Revenue loss, indirect, or consequential damages of any kind.
• Issues introduced by modifications you or your team make after handoff.

Our total liability in any dispute is capped at the amount you paid us in the 30 days preceding the issue.

6. Confidentiality

We treat everything you share with us — your business processes, data, and technical details — as confidential. We will not disclose it to third parties. If you need a formal NDA, we are happy to sign one before the discovery call.

7. Independent contractor

OpenClaw Consult is an independent consultancy, not an employee, partner, or agent of your business. We are also not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the official OpenClaw project or team. OpenClaw is a trademark of its respective owners.

8. Use of this website

You agree not to:

• Submit false or misleading information in the application form.
• Attempt to scrape, reverse-engineer, or attack this site.
• Use this site for any unlawful purpose.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in Los Angeles County, California.

10. Changes

We may update these terms occasionally. The effective date at the top will always reflect the latest version. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated terms.
