- Payment terms are net 15 days from the date of invoice unless otherwise agreed in writing.
- Late payments may incur interest at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted under the Texas Finance Code, whichever is lower.
- We reserve the right to suspend work on any project with an outstanding unpaid balance exceeding 30 days.

- We retain the right to use general knowledge, techniques, and experience gained during the engagement, and to showcase the project in our portfolio unless you request otherwise in writing.
5. Client Responsibilities
You agree to provide timely feedback, access to necessary systems, and all content or materials required for us to perform the services. Delays caused by your failure to provide these may extend project timelines and do not entitle you to a refund.
6. Warranties & Disclaimers
We warrant that services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner consistent with industry standards. Except for this express warranty, all services are provided "as is" without any other warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, to the fullest extent permitted under Texas law.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Texas law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific service giving rise to the claim. In no event shall we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SoftwarePros, its owners, employees, and contractors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses arising out of your use of the deliverables or your breach of these Terms.
9. Confidentiality

10. Termination
- Either party may terminate an engagement with 15 days' written notice.
- Upon termination, you are responsible for payment for all work completed up to the date of termination.
- We may terminate immediately if you breach these Terms or fail to make payment within 30 days of the due date.
