Terms &
Conditions

Last updated: March 2026 · Webvyn

1. Definitions

  • Webvyn means Webvyn, a South African company.
  • Client means any individual or business that engages Webvyn’s services or registers on the platform.
  • Platform means any website, web application, e-commerce store, or SaaS system built by Webvyn.
  • Contract means the formal service agreement between Webvyn and the Client.

2. Services

Webvyn provides digital solutions including website design and development, e-commerce development, custom SaaS platforms, business management systems, web hosting, and ongoing maintenance and support.

All services are scoped in writing via a formal proposal and contract before work commences. Webvyn reserves the right to decline any project at its discretion.

All prices quoted are final and billed exactly as displayed to the client.

3.1 Setup Fee

A once-off setup fee is charged at the start of the contract covering design, development setup, domain configuration, cloud environment provisioning, and SSL installation. The setup fee is non-refundable and does not count toward the buy-out price.

3.2 Monthly Payments

Monthly rental payments are due on the same date each month as specified in the contract. Payments are made via EFT to Webvyn’s designated bank account. Invoices are issued at the beginning of each billing cycle.

3.3 Buy-Out Option

The Client may exercise the buy-out option at any time during the 12-month contract. The buy-out price is calculated as the agreed once-off price minus all rental payments made to date. Webvyn will transfer the full Handover Package within 5 working days of final payment confirmation.

3.4 Contract Renewal

If the 12-month contract expires without a buy-out being exercised, Webvyn will issue a new 12-month rental contract. If the Client chooses not to renew, the platform will be temporarily suspended — not deleted. All data is retained for a minimum of 90 days post-suspension. The platform will be reactivated on signing of a new contract.

3.5 Missed Payments

If a monthly payment is missed, Webvyn will issue a reminder. After 7 days of non-payment the platform may be suspended. After 30 days the contract will be reviewed and Webvyn reserves the right to terminate the agreement. Client data is retained for 90 days following suspension.

4. Once-Off Purchase

Clients who elect to pay the full once-off price receive complete ownership of the platform on delivery. Webvyn will deliver the full Handover Package within 5 working days of confirmed payment.

If a Client is currently on a rental plan and wishes to buy out, all rental payments made to date are credited toward the once-off price. The remaining balance is payable to complete the purchase.

5. Ownership & Handover

On successful buy-out or once-off purchase, Webvyn transfers full ownership of the platform to the Client. The Handover Package includes:

  • Domain transferred to the Client’s own registrar account
  • Complete source code via private GitHub or GitLab repository
  • Full MySQL database export with live access credentials
  • Azure account transfer with all infrastructure configurations
  • All customer data in structured exportable format
  • SSL certificate and all environment variable files
  • Technical documentation and admin user guide
  • Credentials vault covering every access point of the platform

Webvyn retains no access to, ownership of, or claim over the platform following a completed handover.

6. Intellectual Property

During the rental period, Webvyn retains ownership of the platform and all associated intellectual property. The Client is granted a licence to use the platform during the contract period.

Upon successful buy-out or once-off purchase, all intellectual property related to the Client’s platform transfers to the Client. Webvyn retains the right to use general methodologies, frameworks, and non-client-specific code in future projects.

Any content, branding, trademarks, logos, or materials provided by the Client remain the property of the Client at all times.

7. Hosting & Infrastructure

During the rental period, Webvyn manages all hosting, security, SSL, backups, and uptime monitoring on behalf of the Client on Microsoft Azure.

Webvyn targets 99.9% uptime but does not guarantee uninterrupted service. Planned maintenance will be communicated in advance. Webvyn is not liable for downtime caused by third-party infrastructure providers including Azure.

8. Client Responsibilities

  • Provide accurate and complete information required for project delivery
  • Supply all content, images, branding, and materials in a timely manner
  • Provide feedback and approvals within agreed timeframes
  • Ensure all content provided does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights
  • Make all payments on the due dates specified in invoices
  • Keep account credentials confidential and notify Webvyn immediately of any unauthorised access

9. Limitation of Liability

Webvyn’s total liability to the Client in any circumstances is limited to the total amount paid by the Client under the current contract in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Webvyn is not liable for any indirect, consequential, or special damages including loss of business, loss of revenue, or loss of data arising from use of the platform or any service interruption.

10. Privacy & Data Protection

Webvyn processes Client personal information in accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA). Full details are in our Privacy Policy and POPIA Notice. Webvyn does not sell Client data to any third party.

11. Termination

Either party may terminate the contract with 30 days written notice. If the Client terminates before the end of the 12-month contract, all remaining monthly payments for the contract period become due immediately unless a buy-out is exercised.

Webvyn may terminate immediately if the Client is in material breach of these Terms, including persistent non-payment, provision of fraudulent information, or use of the platform for illegal activities.

On termination without a buy-out, the platform will be suspended and data retained for 90 days before permanent deletion.

12. Disputes & Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from these Terms or any contract shall first be referred to mediation. If mediation fails, disputes shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.

13. Amendments

Webvyn reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Amendments will be published on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the platform or services after any amendment constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
