This Service Delivery Agreement (“Agreement”) is between:

Service Provider:

and

Client:
Any individual or business purchasing services from AFLAH ZAMAN or from the website.

By making a payment or signing up for services, the client agrees to everything stated in this Agreement.


1. Nature of Services

We provide digital and IT services including, but not limited to:

• Web Development
• SEO Consulting
• Website Management
• Cybersecurity Support
• Content Strategy

Each project may have its own scope, timeline, and deliverables, which will be discussed with the client.


2. Project Start

A project begins after:

• Payment is made
• Required information is shared
• Project details are approved

Missing inputs from the client can delay or pause the project.


3. Delivery Timeline

Timelines depend on client responsiveness, project complexity, and required inputs. I always aim for fast, high-quality delivery, but timelines may shift if:

• Client delays sharing content
• Client changes scope midway
• Client does not respond
• Technical issues arise


4. Client Responsibilities

Clients must:

• Provide accurate information
• Share necessary content (text, images, logins)
• Respond in a timely manner
• Review drafts and give feedback
• Approve final deliverables

Lack of response for 7 days may pause the project.


5. Revisions

Each project includes a set number of revisions (usually 2–3 unless otherwise agreed). Extra revisions, new features, or scope changes may incur additional fees.


6. Payment Terms

Payments are:

• Due in advance
• Non-refundable (see Refund Policy)
• Required to secure the project slot
• Required before continuation of paused work

For subscriptions or monthly plans, automatic billing may be used (UPI Autopay, card recurring, etc.).


7. Non-Refundable Policy

All payments made for services are non-refundable for any reason, unless the exception applies. The client acknowledges this before making a payment.


8. Completion & Handover

Delivery is considered complete when:

• The final files, website, or deliverables are provided, or
• The project scope has been fulfilled

Handover may include:

• System access
• Design files
• Final website setup
• Reports
• Documentation


9. Service Quality

All services are delivered with professional quality, genuine effort, and industry-level standards. However:

• Exact performance outcomes (SEO ranking, traffic, lead growth, etc.) cannot be guaranteed.
• IT services depend on many third-party systems.


10. Termination

A project may be terminated if:

• The client violates terms
• The client uses abusive or illegal methods
• The project scope shifts beyond agreement
• The client becomes unresponsive for extended periods

Paid amounts remain non-refundable.


11. Limitation of Liability

AFLAH ZAMAN is not liable for:

• Plugin/theme/website updates breaking functionality
• Client modifications causing damage
• Loss of data caused by external systems
• SEO ranking drops caused by Google updates
• Website hacks due to poor hosting


12. Ownership

After final payment:

• The client owns the final outcome or deliverables
• Source files not included by default unless agreed
• We reserve the right to showcase the project in our portfolio


13. Communication

Official communication channels:

• Email
• WhatsApp (for quick discussions)
• Zoom/Google Meet when needed


14. Dispute Resolution

Most issues can be solved with open communication. By using our services, the client agrees to resolve concerns directly with us.
