Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using our website and services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our services.

Services Provided

Kanu LLC provides website design, development, and maintenance services. All services are provided directly by Kanu. We utilize industry-standard practices and tools, including Vercel for hosting and metrics, to deliver our services.

Please note that our Explore Features page may be temporarily unavailable as we are currently updating our website. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience as we work to improve your experience.

Kanu LLC reserves the right to modify its pricing structure and service fees at any time. For existing clients with ongoing service agreements, Kanu LLC will provide a minimum of six (6) months' written notice before implementing any price increases. By continuing to use our services after the notice period, you accept and agree to the new pricing terms. If you do not agree to the new pricing, you may terminate your service agreement as outlined in the termination provisions of these Terms.

Intellectual Property and Ownership Rights

All content, designs, code, software, applications, databases, documentation, graphics, layouts, user interfaces, logos, and other materials produced or developed by Kanu LLC ("Deliverables") remain the exclusive property of Kanu LLC until full payment is received as specified in our agreement. Upon receipt of full payment, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Deliverables solely for your internal business purposes. This license explicitly does not include the right to reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or sublicense the Deliverables without prior written consent from Kanu LLC.

In the event of contract termination for any reason, including but not limited to your exercise of our 14-day money-back guarantee, partial payment, failure to pay, or mutual decision to end the business relationship, all intellectual property rights immediately and irrevocably revert to Kanu LLC in their entirety. This includes all designs, code, content, and other materials created during the service period, regardless of the state of completion. You agree to immediately cease use of any materials provided, destroy all copies in your possession, and remove any implementations from your websites, systems, or third-party platforms within 48 hours of termination. You further agree to provide written confirmation of such actions upon request by Kanu LLC.

Any domains, hosting accounts, third-party services, software licenses, stock imagery, fonts, plugins, or other digital assets purchased, licensed, or acquired by Kanu LLC during the course of providing services remain the exclusive and sole property of Kanu LLC regardless of the status of the project or our business relationship. Ownership of these assets is not transferred under any circumstances except by explicit written agreement. Clients may purchase specific domains or other assets at a price determined solely by Kanu LLC, which reserves the right to decline any such purchase request at its discretion. Transfer of ownership for any such assets will only occur after receipt of full payment of the agreed amount and execution of a separate transfer agreement. Any dispute regarding ownership of these assets shall be resolved in favor of Kanu LLC.

You acknowledge that you acquire no ownership rights whatsoever to any Kanu LLC assets, intellectual property, or work products except as explicitly granted in a signed writing by an authorized representative of Kanu LLC. You hereby waive any right to contest Kanu LLC's ownership of its intellectual property or to bring any claims challenging such ownership. You further agree that any breach of these intellectual property provisions constitutes immediate and irreparable harm to Kanu LLC, entitling Kanu LLC to injunctive relief in addition to any other available remedies.

Confidentiality

Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of any proprietary or sensitive information shared during the course of our business relationship. This includes, but is not limited to, business strategies, customer data, technical specifications, pricing information, and any other information marked as confidential or that should reasonably be understood to be confidential.

This agreement constitutes a bidirectional non-disclosure agreement. Each party agrees not to disclose confidential information to any third party without prior written consent from the disclosing party. Both parties agree to protect the confidential information with the same degree of care used to protect their own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care.

The confidentiality obligations in this section shall survive the termination of our business relationship for a period of two (2) years.

User Obligations

When using our services, you agree to provide accurate information and comply with all applicable laws. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account details and any passwords.

Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

Our services are provided on an "as is" basis without any warranties, express or implied. Kanu LLC disclaims all warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. In no event shall Kanu LLC be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.

Kanu LLC's total liability shall not exceed the amount paid by you for our services in the six months preceding any claim.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kanu LLC and its affiliates from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of our services or your violation of these Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. Any disputes arising from these Terms will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in King County, Washington.
