Terms of Service

These terms apply to engagements with WriteCodeWeb GmbH. We try to make them readable; if anything is unclear, ask before signing.

1. Scope

These terms govern all engagements between you (the "client") and WriteCodeWeb GmbH (the "studio") — including sprints, custom builds, hourly work, and Code Care retainers. They apply unless overridden by a written agreement signed by both parties.

2. Engagement & contract

A contract is formed when (a) the studio sends you a written brief, (b) you sign or email written approval of that brief, and (c) the studio confirms receipt and a start date. Stripe checkout payments constitute acceptance of the line items shown at the time of payment.

3. Prices & payment

All prices are in EUR. Sprints are fixed-price. Hourly work is billed at the rates published on the pricing page at the time of order. VAT (currently 19% in Germany) is added at checkout where applicable; reverse-charge applies for valid EU VAT numbers (Art. 196 VAT Directive).

Payment is due on order. Larger engagements may be split into milestones with separate invoices, agreed before signing. Late payments are subject to default interest of 9 percentage points above the ECB base rate (§ 288 BGB).

4. Delivery

All services are delivered digitally — via shared Git repository, staging URL, and / or live deployment. Deliverables include source code, deployment scripts, design files, and a written handover document. We retain a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free licence to display and reference the work in our portfolio.

5. Revisions & change requests

Each sprint includes the number of revision rounds stated on the pricing page. Revisions beyond that, or changes to the agreed brief, are billed hourly at the published rate.

6. Right of withdrawal (consumers only)

If you are a consumer (private individual), you have a 14-day right of withdrawal (§ 355 BGB). The right of withdrawal expires early when, with your express consent, we have begun performance — for example, when the discovery call has happened or design work has started. Most of our engagements are with businesses, where this right does not apply.

7. Warranty

Statutory warranty applies (§§ 633 ff. BGB). Defects must be reported in writing. We will fix any defect classified as a bug, free of charge, within 14 days of launch (post-launch hypercare). Defects reported after the hypercare window are billed under the applicable Code Care retainer or hourly rate.

8. Limitation of liability

For damages arising from slight negligence, our liability is limited to the typical foreseeable damage at the time of contract conclusion, capped at the engagement value. This limitation does not apply to damages from injury to life, body, or health, or to liability under the German Product Liability Act.

9. Confidentiality

Both parties keep confidential the non-public information they receive from each other. This obligation continues for 36 months after the engagement ends.

10. Governing law & venue

These terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Place of jurisdiction for merchants is Koblenz, Germany.

11. Severability

If any provision of these terms is or becomes invalid, the remainder continues in force. The invalid provision is replaced by a valid one that comes closest to the economic purpose.
