Terms of Service
Last updated: 12 April 2025
By using the DevPanda website or engaging our services, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully. If you have any questions, email us at hello@devpanda.com.au.
1. About DevPanda
DevPanda is a web development, SEO, and web application agency operating from Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. These terms govern use of our website at devpanda.com.au and any services we provide to clients.
2. Use of This Website
You may use this website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
- Use the site in any way that is unlawful or fraudulent
- Transmit unsolicited commercial communications (spam)
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of our website or its underlying infrastructure
- Scrape, copy, or redistribute our content without written permission
3. Services and Engagements
When you engage DevPanda for a project (website build, SEO campaign, web application, or other service), the specific scope, timeline, and pricing will be agreed in a separate proposal or service agreement. These Terms of Service provide the general framework; the proposal governs the specific work.
Payments
Payment terms are outlined in each project proposal. We typically invoice in milestones. Invoices are due within the period stated. Late payments may attract fees as specified in the proposal.
Intellectual Property
Upon receipt of final payment, all custom design and code created for your project is transferred to you. DevPanda retains the right to display completed work in our portfolio unless you request otherwise in writing.
Third-Party Licences
Some projects may incorporate third-party software, fonts, or libraries. These components are subject to their own licences, which will be disclosed to you as part of project delivery.
4. Free SEO Audit
Our free SEO audit offer is provided as a goodwill service with no obligation to proceed. We aim to deliver the audit within 2–3 business days of receiving your details. The audit is an honest assessment — we will not recommend services you do not need.
5. Limitation of Liability
DevPanda provides its services with reasonable care and skill. However, we cannot guarantee specific outcomes (such as particular search rankings or revenue figures), as results depend on many factors outside our control.
To the extent permitted by law, DevPanda's liability for any claim arising from our services is limited to the fees paid for the specific service giving rise to the claim.
6. Confidentiality
We treat all client information as confidential. We will not disclose your business information to third parties without your consent, except where required by law or to deliver your project (e.g., sharing credentials with a hosting provider under NDA).
7. Website Content
The content on devpanda.com.au is provided for general information. While we aim to keep it accurate and up to date, we make no warranties about its completeness or suitability for any particular purpose.
8. Links to Other Sites
Our website may link to external sites for reference. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or practices.
9. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of Queensland courts.
10. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be at devpanda.com.au/terms. Continued use of our website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
