What these terms cover
By using this site you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
This is important enough to be worth stating plainly: nothing on this page creates an engagement, a quote, or an obligation to do work. If Tekansa is delivering something for you, that relationship is governed by the master services agreement, statement of work or order form you signed. Where those documents and this page differ, those documents win.
Who you are dealing with
The site is operated by Tekansa Pvt Ltd, with its headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, and offices in Dakar, Senegal, and Noida, India. You can reach us at hello@tekansa.com.
Using the site
You may read this site, and quote from it with attribution, for your own business purposes. In using it you agree not to do the following.
Break the law with it
Use the site for anything unlawful, or in a way that infringes somebody else's rights.
Attack it
Probe, scan or test its defences, interfere with its availability, or try to reach any system or data you have not been given access to. Responsible disclosure of a genuine vulnerability to hello@tekansa.com is welcome and is not what this clause is aimed at.
Strip-mine it
Scrape, harvest or bulk-copy the content, including for training a model, without our written permission.
Impersonate us
Use our name, logo or material in a way that suggests a partnership, endorsement or affiliation that does not exist.
Misuse the forms
Send us other people's personal data without a basis for doing so, or use the enquiry form or chat to send unsolicited marketing, malware or abuse.
Our intellectual property
The content of this site, including the text, design, code, graphics and the Tekansa name and marks, belongs to Tekansa or to the people we licensed it from. Reading the site does not transfer any of it to you. Product names and logos belonging to other companies are theirs, used here to refer to them.
What you send us
You keep ownership of whatever you send through the enquiry form, the chat or by email. You give us permission to use it for the purpose you sent it for: to reply to you and to assess whether we can help.
Please do not send confidential information through this website. Use an NDA and a channel suited to it. If you send us an unsolicited idea, proposal or feature suggestion, we are free to act on it without obligation or payment to you. We say that not to take anything from you, but because we work across many clients on similar problems and cannot accept a claim that an idea came from you.
Nothing here is advice
The pages on this site describe what we do and how we think about building software. They are general information, not professional, legal, medical, financial or regulatory advice, and they are not a substitute for an assessment of your own situation.
That applies with particular force to the healthcare, fintech and insurance material. Regulatory frameworks named on this site are described in general terms. Whether a given approach satisfies an obligation that binds you is a question for your own advisers and your own regulator.
Case studies and figures
Outcomes described in case studies happened in the context of a particular client, team and system. They are illustrations of work we have done, not a prediction or a promise of what would happen for you.
Links out
Where we link to another site, we do so because it is useful, not because we control it or vouch for everything on it. Once you follow a link, that site's terms and privacy policy apply, not ours.
Availability
We aim to keep this site up, but we do not promise it will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of it, at any time, without notice. Content may be edited or removed as our services change.
Disclaimer and liability
The site is provided as it is. To the fullest extent the law permits, we exclude the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement in relation to it.
To the fullest extent the law permits, Tekansa is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for lost profits, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, arising from your use of this website. Because the site is informational and free to use, our total liability in connection with it is limited to one hundred US dollars.
Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited. If you are a consumer, this section does not take away rights your local law gives you. This clause governs the website only; liability under a signed engagement is dealt with in that agreement.
Privacy
How we handle personal data is set out in the Privacy Policy, and what the site stores in your browser is set out in the Cookie Policy. Both form part of these terms.
Governing law
These terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The state and federal courts located in Franklin County, Ohio have exclusive jurisdiction, and you and we each submit to them. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere, you may have the right to bring proceedings in your own country, and this clause does not remove it.
General
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest continues to apply. A delay in enforcing a term is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer your rights under these terms; we may transfer ours to a company that acquires the relevant part of our business.
Changes
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the revised version.
