Terms of service
Last updated: Jul 3, 2025
1. Agreement to Terms
By engaging Arquibyte LLC (“Arquibyte,” “we,” “us”) for remote CAD drafting or related services (the “Services”), you (“Client,” “you”) accept these Terms of Service and any associated scopes, exhibits, or proposals (collectively, “Project Documents”).
2. Our Services
We produce remote CAD drafting, 2-D/3-D modeling, BIM files, and technical documentation strictly as described in your Project Documents. We do not:
- perform architectural or engineering design;
- prepare structural calculations;
- process permits or verify code compliance;
- stamp, seal, or sign drawings.
3. Client Responsibilities
- Supply complete and accurate drawings, surveys, sketches, and data.
- Return consolidated review comments within fifteen (15) calendar days of each delivery (“review cycle”).
- Verify all field dimensions, site conditions, and local code requirements before submitting our files for permitting or construction.
- Pay all fees per Section 5.
4. Deliverables & Revisions
- Deliverables and turnaround times are defined in your Project Documents.
- Two (2) review cycles are included; extra or out-of-scope changes will be quoted separately.
- If you do not report a material non-conformity within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt, the deliverables are deemed accepted.
5. Fees & Payment
- All fees, milestones, and due dates appear in your Project Documents.
- Invoices are issued in U.S. dollars via Stripe. On totals above USD 500 you may split payment 50 % / 50 %.
- Final files (editable CAD plus clean PDFs) are released only after full payment.
- Late payments: Balances overdue by more than fifteen (15) calendar days incur interest at 1.5 % per month calculated as simple interest on the original invoice amount (or the maximum lawful rate, if lower). Arquibyte may suspend work until all overdue amounts are cleared.
6. Intellectual Property
- Upon full payment, you own the final deliverables. We retain ownership of our underlying know-how, templates, and workflow tools.
- You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use any materials you supply solely to perform the Services and—unless you object in writing—for internal training or portfolio display.
- You warrant that you own or control all materials you provide and will indemnify Arquibyte against third-party claims.
7. Confidentiality
Each party will keep non-public information received for a Project confidential and use it only to fulfill these Terms.
8. Limitation of Liability
Our total liability under these Terms will not exceed the fees you actually paid to Arquibyte for the Project. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or special damages. All deliverables must be reviewed and approved by a licensed professional of record before any official submission or construction use.
9. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any dispute not resolved within thirty (30) days of written notice will be submitted to binding arbitration in Miami-Dade County under the AAA Commercial Rules.
10. Independent Contractor
Arquibyte acts as an independent contractor. Nothing herein creates an agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship, and neither party may bind the other without prior written consent.
11. Force Majeure
Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond its reasonable control (e.g., natural disasters, governmental actions, internet outages) provided prompt notice is given and performance resumes as soon as practicable.
12. Updates & Future Projects
We may revise these Terms, our offerings, or policies at any time. Changes apply only to future Projects unless both parties agree otherwise in writing. Each new Project requires a new or amended scope referencing the then-current Terms.
