These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the website at qiuyufu.lol and the computer systems design services offered by THE EILYN STRONG PROJECT, INCORPORATED, a company located at 59 Southview St, Waterbury - 06706, United States (US). By accessing this website or by engaging us for any service, you agree to be bound by these terms.
If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use this website and do not engage us for services. Your continued use of the website or services after any changes to these terms take effect means that you accept the revised terms.
These terms apply to all visitors, clients, volunteers, and partners. Where a separate written agreement exists between you and the Company, the terms of that agreement control any conflict with these general terms.
This agreement describes the relationship between you and the Company in plain language. It is designed to be readable by everyone, including the volunteers and small organizations we serve. We welcome questions about any provision and will explain our interpretation freely before you commit to anything. Our team is available by phone, email, or a visit to our office in Waterbury to walk through any clause you find confusing.
The Company provides professional, scientific, and technical services in the field of computer systems design and computer integrated systems design. This agreement covers the general terms under which those services are provided, as well as the rules for using this website. It applies equally to paid engagements and to free community support offered to qualified nonprofits.
Nothing in these terms is intended to limit any right that the law does not allow to be limited. Where any provision conflicts with a mandatory legal requirement, the legal requirement prevails.
The Company provides computer systems design and computer integrated systems design services to businesses, nonprofit organizations, schools, and community groups. Our work includes analyzing existing operations, designing new systems, integrating hardware and software, building custom applications, and supporting the systems we deliver.
Services are provided on a project basis or on a continuing support basis, as agreed in writing before work begins. We provide a written scope for each engagement so that both sides understand what will be delivered, when it will be delivered, and what it will cost.
Some services, such as consultations and community support, may be provided free of charge to qualified nonprofit organizations in the Waterbury area. Free services remain subject to the general terms of this agreement unless a separate agreement says otherwise. In all cases, the Company reserves the right to decline work that falls outside our expertise or capacity, and we will say so honestly rather than take on a project we cannot serve well.
Computer systems design services involve analyzing how an organization works and designing the computer systems that support that work. This may include documenting current processes, modeling future workflows, and preparing a system blueprint that guides implementation.
Deliverables may include system architecture documents, process diagrams, configuration guides, and implementation plans. The Company works closely with your team to understand your needs and to ensure that every design reflects the realities of your operation.
Design documents are delivered in a format that your team can review and approve. You are responsible for reviewing design documents promptly and for providing decisions within the timeline set in the project plan so that the work stays on schedule.
Computer integrated systems design services connect separate hardware and software systems into a single, dependable whole. This work may include designing data flows, building integrations between legacy and modern tools, and planning automation that reduces manual effort.
Integration projects begin with a careful inventory of the systems you already have. The Company then designs the links between those systems, specifies the data that will move across them, and tests the connections until they perform reliably.
Because integration work touches existing systems, we plan changes carefully to avoid disruption to your daily operations. We coordinate with your team and with any relevant vendors, and we provide training so that your staff can operate the integrated system with confidence.
Every engagement begins with a written scope. The scope describes the services to be provided, the deliverables, the timeline, and the price. You should review the scope carefully and ask about anything you do not understand before you accept it.
Once a scope is accepted, it becomes the basis of the project. If you request additional work that falls outside the original scope, the Company will provide a written change order describing the additional work and any adjustment to price or timeline before proceeding.
We will not begin work outside the agreed scope without your approval. Likewise, you are not obligated to pay for work that you did not approve in writing.
You agree to provide accurate and complete information when requesting services, when registering for events, or when using this website. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any passwords or access credentials related to the services.
You agree to cooperate with the Company during the course of a project, including providing timely access to relevant systems, records, and personnel. Delays caused by missing information or decisions may extend the project timeline.
You are responsible for the content and accuracy of any data you provide, and you confirm that you have the right to provide that data. You agree to notify the Company promptly if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your accounts or systems.
You agree not to use this website or the services for any unlawful purpose or in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the operation of the website or the systems we support. You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the website or to any system we manage.
You may not use the services to store or transmit unlawful content, harmful software, or content that violates the rights of others. You may not use the services to harass, threaten, or mislead any person or organization.
You may not attempt to reverse engineer, copy, or resell the underlying systems or tools we provide without our written permission. We may suspend or terminate access to the website or services for violations of this section.
The website, its design, its text, and all original systems and software built by the Company are protected by intellectual property laws. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, the Company retains ownership of the designs, documentation, and software it creates.
Where a project includes custom software built specifically for you, the parties may agree in writing to transfer ownership to you once payment is complete. In the absence of such an agreement, you receive a license to use the deliverables for your own business or organizational purposes.
You retain ownership of the data and content you provide to us. We use your data only to perform the services you have requested and as described in our Privacy Policy.
Fees for services are set out in the written scope for each project. Unless otherwise agreed, invoices are payable within thirty days of the invoice date. Payment may be required in full or in installments as described in the scope.
For fixed-price projects, the quoted price covers the work described in the scope. Change orders that add work may adjust the price, and such adjustments are agreed in writing before the work is performed. For time-based engagements, we track time transparently and report it on each invoice.
Late payments may be subject to interest at the rate permitted by law. If payment is not received as agreed, the Company may pause work until the account is current. We are happy to discuss payment arrangements with community organizations in need. Invoices include enough detail for you to see what work was performed and how the amount was calculated, so that there are no surprises on either side.
Our work may involve products and services provided by third parties, such as hosting providers, software vendors, and hardware manufacturers. These products are subject to the terms and licenses of their respective owners.
The Company does not control the terms, availability, or performance of third-party products. You agree to review and accept any third-party terms that apply to products you use in connection with our services.
Where a third-party product fails or is discontinued, the Company will help you plan a transition, but we are not responsible for the product itself. We will always disclose when a recommended product is supplied by a third party.
The website and the services are provided on an as available basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. The Company does not warrant that the website or any system will be uninterrupted or free from errors.
While we design and support systems with professional care, we cannot guarantee that any system will be immune to failures, human error, or external events beyond our control. You remain responsible for maintaining backup copies of your important data.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the exclusions in this section may not apply to you.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company and its developers, staff, and volunteers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or related to the use of the website or the services.
Our total liability for any claim arising out of or related to an engagement shall not exceed the total amount you paid to the Company for the specific services giving rise to the claim. This limitation applies whether the claim is based on contract, tort, or any other legal theory.
Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including liability for fraud, gross negligence, or intentional misconduct.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its developers, staff, volunteers, and partners from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of your use of the website, your violation of these terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.
This indemnification applies to claims that arise from data or content you provide, from unauthorized use of your accounts, and from your use of services in a manner that violates the law.
The Company will notify you promptly of any claim that triggers this indemnification and will give you the opportunity to participate in the defense at your own expense.
You may terminate your engagement with the Company at any time by providing written notice. In that case, you are responsible for payment for work completed up to the date of termination, and any deliverables produced up to that date will be provided to you upon payment.
The Company may terminate an engagement if you materially breach these terms and do not cure the breach within a reasonable period after notice. The Company may also suspend or terminate access to the website immediately for conduct that threatens security or violates the law.
Provisions of these terms that by their nature should survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification, will continue to apply after termination.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut and the federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. The courts located in Waterbury, Connecticut shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or related to these terms, except where the law requires otherwise.
Before filing any claim, the parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute through informal discussion. Most disagreements can be resolved with a single honest conversation, and we welcome that approach.
If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to select an affordable dispute resolution method before resorting to litigation.
The Company may update these Terms of Service from time to time to reflect changes in our services, the law, or the way we operate. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and post the revised terms on our website.
Your continued use of the website or services after changes take effect means that you accept the revised terms. We will not make changes that apply retroactively to reduce your rights without giving you prior notice.
We encourage you to review this page periodically. The version of these terms that applies to a given engagement is the version in effect when that engagement began.
If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision will be replaced with a valid provision that most closely matches the intent of the original.
These terms, together with any written scope, change orders, and the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding the website and the services. They supersede any prior agreements, proposals, or representations, whether written or oral.
Our failure to enforce any provision of these terms is not a waiver of that provision or of any other provision. No waiver is effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party against whom it is asserted.
