• Website design & development
• Web applications & SaaS platforms
• Mobile application development
• AI & machine learning solutions
• UI/UX design
• Digital transformation consulting
• Hosting, maintenance & support services

All services are delivered according to project proposals, agreements, or Statements of Work (SOW).

4. Project Engagement & Acceptance

A project officially begins when:

• A proposal or agreement is approved, and
• The required advance payment or deposit is received.

All timelines are estimates and may vary depending on client feedback, third-party dependencies, or scope changes.

5. Milestone-Based Development Process

Projects are executed using milestone approvals, which may include but not limited to:

• Design Approval
• Prototype Approval
• Development Approval
• Pre-Launch Approval
• Final Delivery

Client approval of a milestone confirms acceptance of work completed at that stage. Failure to provide feedback within 5 business days may be considered automatic approval.

6. Payment Terms

• Payments follow the milestone schedule defined in the proposal or invoice.
• All invoices are payable within 2 business days unless otherwise stated.
• Work may be paused if payments are overdue.
• Final payment must be completed prior to deployment, launch, or transfer of deliverables.

Milestone payments are standard practice in Canadian development agreements to define contractual obligations and acceptance stages.

7. NO REFUND POLICY (Milestone Approval Clause)

Due to the customized and resource-intensive nature of software, web, and application development:

All payments made to Vads Inc. are NON-REFUNDABLE. (Updated Date: 1/1/2025)

• Payments made for completed or approved milestones are final.
• Once a milestone is approved, the associated payment cannot be reversed or refunded.
• Work performed, time allocated, design creation, coding, and technical implementation constitute delivered value.
• Cancellation after project commencement does not qualify for refunds.

If a project is terminated by the client:

• The client remains responsible for payment of all completed milestones and work performed up to termination.

Industry-standard digital service agreements commonly enforce non-refundability once work has commenced or milestones are approved.

8. Scope Changes & Additional Work

Any request outside the approved scope may:

• Require revised pricing
• Extend timelines
• Be treated as a new milestone or change order

Verbal requests do not modify contractual scope unless confirmed in writing.

9. Client Responsibilities

The client agrees to:

• Provide required content, assets, and approvals promptly
• Ensure ownership rights for submitted materials
• Respond to communications within reasonable timelines
• Review deliverables during approval stages

Project delays caused by the client do not constitute grounds for refunds or penalties against Vads Inc.
