Who you are contracting with
Mt7 Private Limited, a private limited company incorporated in India under CIN U68200UP2025PTC233604, GSTIN 09AATCM9258Q1Z2, registered at Adnan Complex, Nazirpura, Basheerganj, Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh 271801, India. In these terms “we” means Mt7 and “you” means the person or company named on the quotation.
Your agreement comes first
Every client's deal is different. The price, the payment split, who owns the code, the support period, the timeline and anything else we agree are set for you in your own signed quotation or agreement. Where that document says something different from this page, your signed document wins.
This page is the default for anything your agreement does not cover. It cannot add obligations to you that your agreement leaves out.
These terms cover project work — a quotation, milestones, a delivery. If you are paying us on a subscription instead, that renews and cancels rather than completing, and a different contract governs it: see our terms and conditions and the cancellation and refund policy.
What the quotation covers
Every project starts with a written quotation naming the deliverables, the milestones, the price, and what is explicitly not included. That document is the scope. Anything not written in it is not in the project — which protects you as much as us, because it is also the reason the price does not move later.
A quotation is valid for thirty days from its date. Work begins when you accept it and the first payment clears.
How you pay
The standard split is below. Your quotation may set a different one to suit the project — a larger advance, or a final payment held back until the work has run for a while — and if it does, the quotation's split is the one that applies.
- 30% on acceptance of the quotation, before work starts.
- 35% on the mid-project milestone, when you have seen it working.
- 35% on delivery, when the final milestone is accepted.
Whatever the split, every payment after the first is triggered by something you can click — a working milestone, a live launch — never by a date that arrives before the work does. If we are late, you do not pay early.
Invoices are due within seven days. Prices are exclusive of tax: Indian clients are charged GST at 18%. For clients outside India the treatment depends on our Letter of Undertaking status at the time of invoicing, and your quotation will state the exact figure before you accept anything.
Payments and refunds
Payments are for work started or delivered, and are not refundable once that work has begun — unless your signed agreement says otherwise. Because every payment after the first follows a working milestone you have already seen, you are never paying ahead of the work.
Money we should not have taken is different, and we return it without an argument: a duplicate payment, an amount above the invoice, or a payment for work we then decline to start. It goes back to the account it came from within fourteen days of either of us spotting it.
Changes to scope
You may change your mind — that is normal and we would rather you did it early. A change that adds work is quoted separately before it starts, and you decide whether to proceed. We will not do extra work and invoice you for it afterwards, and we will not absorb it silently and deliver late instead.
Who owns what
That depends on which of two arrangements you choose, and your quotation names it. If the quotation is silent, the first one applies.
Full ownership. On payment of the final invoice, everything built specifically for you — source code, designs, documentation and data — belongs to you outright, and we assign it to you. You get the repository and the accounts. There is no licence to renew and no hostage held.
Two things stay ours: our own pre-existing tools, libraries and internal frameworks used to build your project, which you get a perpetual, royalty-free right to use as part of it; and the third-party open-source components, which carry their own licences and always did.
Until the final invoice is paid, the deliverables remain our property. This is the only leverage in the arrangement and it sits at the end, not the beginning.
Managed platform. We run your product on a platform we built and own, host it, and keep it working — which is why it costs a fraction of a build you take away. The platform's code stays ours and is not handed over; you hold a licence to use it for as long as the plan runs.
What is yours stays yours, under either arrangement: your domain, your brand, your content, and the data your business generates — customers, orders, everything your people entered. The accounts that carry them are opened in your name. You can have a complete export of that data at any time, and if you leave, we hand it over with thirty days of the service still running so the move never takes your business offline. Keeping the code is the whole of what we keep.
Showing your project as our work
We would like to name you and show what we built. We will ask first, and if you say no the answer is no — permanently, and without it affecting anything else. If you say yes, you can withdraw it later and we will take it down.
Retainers
Retainer and Partner arrangements run month to month unless the agreement says otherwise. Either side may end one with thirty days' written notice. Work already invoiced is payable; work not yet started is not.
Confidentiality
Anything you tell us about your business that is not public stays between us, during the project and after it. The same obligation runs the other way. We will sign your own NDA if you have one.
What we promise, and what we do not
We promise the work will be performed with reasonable skill and care by people who do this professionally, and that it will do what the quotation says it does. If something we built breaks because of a defect in our work, we fix it at our cost for ninety days after delivery.
We do not promise a commercial outcome. Software that works as specified may still not sell, and no agency that tells you otherwise is being straight with you. We are also not responsible for third-party services we integrate with — payment gateways, model providers, hosting — beyond integrating them correctly.
Limits on liability
Our total liability for any claim arising from an engagement is limited to the fees you paid us for that engagement in the twelve months before the claim. Neither side is liable to the other for indirect or consequential loss, including lost profit or lost data, however it arises.
Nothing here limits liability for fraud, or for anything that cannot lawfully be limited.
Ending an engagement
Either side may end a project in writing if the other is in material breach and has not fixed it within fourteen days of being told. You may also end a project at any time for your own reasons: you pay for work completed and accepted to that point, and we hand over what exists.
Your data
How we handle personal data is set out in our privacy notice, which forms part of these terms. Where we process personal data belonging to your customers during a project, we do so on your instructions and only for that project.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts at Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, including for clients outside India. Before either of us goes near a court, we agree to spend thirty days genuinely trying to resolve it between ourselves — in our experience that is where nearly all of them end.
Changes to these terms
We may update this page. The version and date at the top change when we do. The terms that apply to your project are the ones that were live on the day you accepted the quotation, not whatever is on this page later.
