Terms & Conditions.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

Welcome to Peppi Labs. These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the website at peppilabs.net (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. If you are using the Site on behalf of a company or organization, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. Who we are

Peppi Labs is a development and consulting studio operated by Dashible, Inc., a Delaware corporation doing business as Peppi Labs ("Peppi Labs," "we," "us," or "our"). We provide rapid prototyping, full-stack software development, AI architecture and consulting, mobile app development, staff augmentation, and brand and product design services (the "Services"). Peppi Labs is part of the same corporate family as Peppi.ai and PeppiPay, which are operated by Dashible, Inc. under their own terms.

3. The website

The Site is informational. It describes our Services, showcases selected work, and gives you ways to contact us. Submitting the contact form, emailing us, or booking an introductory call does not create a client relationship, an engagement, or any obligation on either side. No content on the Site is an offer that can be accepted to form a contract for Services.

4. Engagements and statements of work

All consulting and development work is governed by a separate written agreement between you and Dashible, Inc., typically a master services agreement, proposal, or statement of work ("SOW") signed by both parties. If there is any conflict between these Terms and a signed agreement or SOW, the signed agreement or SOW controls for that engagement.

• Proposals and quotes expire on the date stated in them, or 30 days after delivery if no date is stated.
• Timelines and estimates described on the Site (including sprint lengths such as our two-week Lightning Dev sprint) describe our typical process. They are not a guarantee of any particular schedule or outcome for your project unless stated in a signed SOW.
• Fees, payment schedules, intellectual-property assignment, confidentiality, and warranties for client work are set out in the applicable agreement or SOW.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or the rights of any third party;
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its servers, or any connected systems;
• Scrape, crawl, or harvest data from the Site at volumes beyond ordinary personal browsing, or use Site content to train machine-learning models without our written permission;
• Introduce viruses, malware, or other harmful code, or interfere with the Site's operation;
• Misrepresent your identity or affiliation when contacting us.

We may restrict or block access to the Site for conduct that violates this section.

6. Intellectual property

The Site and its content, including text, graphics, logos, images, page designs, and the "Peppi Labs," "Peppi," "PeppiPay," and "Lightning Dev" names and marks, are owned by Dashible, Inc. or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view the Site for your personal or internal business evaluation of our Services. No other rights are granted.

Intellectual-property ownership for client engagements is defined in the applicable SOW. Our standard approach: upon full payment, clients own the deliverables we create for them, while Peppi Labs retains ownership of its pre-existing tools, frameworks, libraries, and general know-how, which we license to clients as needed to use their deliverables.

7. Portfolio, testimonials, and trademarks

Client names, logos, testimonials, and case studies appear on the Site with permission of the individuals or companies involved. Third-party names and marks belong to their respective owners; their appearance does not imply endorsement of Peppi Labs beyond the quoted statements. Case-study results describe specific past engagements. Every project is different, and past results are not a promise of future performance.

8. Information you send us

When you submit information through the Site (for example, a project description in our contact form), you confirm that you have the right to share it and that it does not violate any third party's rights or confidentiality obligations you owe to others.

• Do not send us trade secrets or highly sensitive material before a non-disclosure agreement is in place. Until an NDA or engagement agreement is signed, information you send is not subject to confidentiality obligations, though we handle it as described in our Privacy Policy.
• If you send us ideas, suggestions, or feedback about our Services or the Site, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use them without restriction or compensation.

9. Third-party links and family products

The Site links to other websites, including our family products peppi.ai and peppipay.com, client sites, and scheduling tools. Those sites are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices. A link does not imply endorsement.

10. No professional advice

Content on the Site, including descriptions of AI architecture, technology strategy, and development practices, is general information, not legal, financial, accounting, or other professional advice. Decisions you make based on Site content are your responsibility. Advice we provide within a paid engagement is governed by the applicable SOW.

11. Disclaimers

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that its content is complete, accurate, or current.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Dashible, Inc. and its officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages (including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption) arising from your use of the Site, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability for any claim arising from your use of the Site is limited to the greater of (a) $100 or (b) the amounts you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose for the service giving rise to the claim. Liability arising from a signed engagement agreement or SOW is governed by that agreement, not by this section. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Dashible, Inc. from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your misuse of the Site or your violation of these Terms.

14. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time for conduct that violates these Terms or for legitimate operational reasons. Sections 6 through 13 survive termination.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

16. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Site will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, except that either party may bring qualifying claims in small-claims court or seek injunctive relief for intellectual-property violations. You and Dashible, Inc. each waive any right to participate in a class action.
