Terms of Service
Last updated: August 20, 2026
1. Who this is with
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you ("you", "client") and Nouman Sadiq, operating as noumansadiq.com ("we", "us", "the service"). By purchasing, paying a deposit for, or using any service listed on this site, you agree to these Terms.
Contact: info@noumansadiq.com · +1 (929) 939-4060 (WhatsApp preferred).
2. What we sell
Custom business automation systems designed and built to specification for a specific business. Deliverables vary by project and are agreed in writing before the requirements call is completed. Common examples include booking systems, dispatch queues, quote builders, review and referral systems, client portals, and internal dashboards.
The demo systems at noumansadiq.com/demo/* and noumansadiq.com/dashboards/* are illustrative previews. They are not the finished product delivered to any client and are not licensed for redistribution.
3. How pricing and payment work
Project pricing is open-ended and starts at $2,000 (USD), scoped to the specific system a client needs. All prices displayed on this site are estimates; the final price is locked in writing after the requirements call.
A 25% deposit of the estimated project total is required to reserve a place in the build queue. An optional +10% expedite fee jumps the queue. Payment is processed by Paddle.com Inc. or Paddle Payments Ltd. as the Merchant of Record. Paddle handles billing, tax collection, refunds, and card storage — we never see or store payment card details.
Following the deposit, a written scope and payment schedule are agreed before further work. Ongoing hosting or maintenance plans, when purchased, bill on a real recurring cycle stated in plain language at the point of signup, and can be cancelled by request at any time; unused time is prorated.
4. Refunds
Refund terms are detailed in the Refund Policy and summarised here for convenience: the 25% deposit is fully refundable if, after the requirements call, either party determines this isn't the right fit. Once written scope is agreed and work has begun, the deposit is credited toward the project and non-refundable except at our discretion.
5. What we agree to do
Once a written scope is signed, we agree to:
- Build the specified system to the agreed scope.
- Deliver a working system to the timeline agreed in writing (typically 5–15 business days from written scope, depending on complexity).
- Test the delivered system against the requirements before handover.
- Provide reasonable support for defects for 30 days after handover, at no additional cost.
6. What we ask of you
The client agrees to:
- Provide the information, access, and content needed to build the system (business details, brand assets, sample data, third-party account access where required).
- Respond within a reasonable timeframe to requests for input during the build; extended delays may push out the delivery date proportionally.
- Pay agreed milestone amounts on the schedule set in writing.
- Use the delivered system only for the client's own business purposes and not to resell, sublicense, or redistribute it as a competing product.
7. Intellectual property
On full payment for a project, the client owns the delivered system for use in the client's own business. Underlying reusable components, frameworks, libraries, patterns, or code snippets developed as part of our general practice remain our intellectual property and may be reused across projects and clients. Third-party libraries and open-source components remain governed by their own licences.
Demo systems shown at noumansadiq.com/demo/* and noumansadiq.com/dashboards/* are provided for evaluation only and remain our property.
8. Hosting and data
For systems we host on our infrastructure (the default for Lane-1 automation systems), the client retains ownership of client-generated data. On termination, we will provide a reasonable data export at no additional cost. Client-owned hosting (Website Build service and similar) means we deliver the system and the client hosts it on their own account; in that case the client is responsible for hosting, backups, and infrastructure availability.
9. Confidentiality
Non-public business information exchanged during the build (revenue figures, customer lists, internal processes) is treated as confidential and is not shared outside of what is required to build the system. Public case studies and screen samples referencing a client's business are published only with the client's written consent.
10. Warranty and liability
We warrant that delivered systems will substantially conform to the written scope for 30 days after handover. Outside of that, deliverables are provided "as is". To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability for any claim arising from these Terms or the service is limited to the amount paid by the client for the specific project giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental damages.
11. Termination
Either party may terminate a project with written notice. On termination before scope completion, work delivered up to the termination date is invoiced pro-rata against the agreed schedule; any remaining deposit balance not covered by work performed is refunded. Ongoing hosting or maintenance subscriptions can be cancelled at any time by written request; service continues through the end of the current billing cycle.
12. Disputes
If something goes wrong, the first step is a conversation. Email info@noumansadiq.com and we will work in good faith to resolve it directly — in practice this settles almost everything, and quickly.
If a dispute cannot be resolved that way within 30 days, both parties agree to attempt resolution through neutral mediation or arbitration, on terms and in a venue agreed between them in writing at that time, before commencing any formal proceedings. Nothing in this section limits either party's right to seek urgent relief to protect confidential information or intellectual property.
Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable consumer or statutory right you have under the law of your own country of residence.
13. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes take effect from the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes to Terms that affect an active project are communicated in writing to affected clients before taking effect.
