3

OUR SERVICES

Information presented on the Stratnovo website is provided for general informational purposes.

Descriptions of our services, technologies, capabilities, projects, pricing, and other information may change without notice.

A website description, proposal, quotation, or discussion does not automatically create a binding contractual relationship.

Specific client engagements will be governed by the applicable agreement between Stratnovo and the client.

4

CLIENT ENGAGEMENTS

Where you engage Stratnovo to provide software development, consulting, AI, web development, infrastructure, or other services, the scope of work will normally be defined through one or more of the following:

Proposal

Quotation

Statement of Work

Service Agreement

Development Agreement

Data Processing Agreement

Other written agreement between the parties

The applicable agreement will define the project's scope, deliverables, responsibilities, timelines, fees, payment terms, intellectual property arrangements, confidentiality requirements, and other relevant conditions.

Where there is a conflict between these Terms and a specific written agreement with a client, the specific agreement will govern the relevant service.

5

PROJECT SCOPE AND CHANGES

Software and technology projects may evolve during development.

Changes to agreed requirements, features, integrations, designs, infrastructure, or deliverables may affect project timelines and costs.

Where a requested change materially affects the agreed scope, Stratnovo may require the change to be documented and agreed upon before implementation.

Additional work outside the agreed scope may be subject to additional fees.

6

CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES

Clients are responsible for providing accurate and complete information reasonably required for Stratnovo to perform its services.

Clients may also be responsible for:

Providing timely feedback

Providing required content and materials

Providing access to relevant systems where necessary

Providing accurate technical requirements

Providing required credentials through secure channels

Obtaining necessary licences and permissions

Ensuring that information supplied to Stratnovo may lawfully be processed

Reviewing and approving deliverables

Making payments according to agreed terms

Delays caused by unavailable information, approvals, access, or other client dependencies may affect project timelines.

7

PAYMENTS AND FEES

Fees for Stratnovo services will be communicated through the applicable quotation, proposal, invoice, or agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment terms specified in an invoice or agreement will apply.

Clients are responsible for paying agreed fees within the specified payment period.

Additional services, changes in scope, third-party costs, hosting costs, licences, subscriptions, infrastructure costs, or other expenses may be charged separately where applicable.

8

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Some Stratnovo solutions may depend on third-party services, platforms, APIs, software, cloud providers, payment providers, AI providers, hosting providers, or other external technologies.

Examples may include:

Cloud infrastructure

Domain and hosting services

Payment platforms

Email services

AI platforms

Analytics services

Communication platforms

Software libraries

Third-party APIs

Stratnovo is not responsible for outages, changes, pricing, restrictions, security incidents, or other issues caused by third-party services that are outside our reasonable control.

Where a third-party service is required for a project, the client may also be required to comply with that provider's terms and policies.

9

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Some Stratnovo services may use artificial intelligence or machine learning technologies.

AI-generated outputs may contain errors, inaccuracies, omissions, or unexpected results.

AI-generated information should therefore be reviewed and validated before being relied upon for important business, legal, financial, medical, technical, or other consequential decisions.

Where AI is used in a client project, the specific contract or project documentation may define the permitted use, data-processing arrangements, limitations, and responsibilities.

10

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

Software developed by Stratnovo will be delivered according to the agreed project scope and specifications.

Unless otherwise agreed, software may require ongoing maintenance, hosting, infrastructure, security updates, third-party services, or technical support after delivery.

The availability of future updates or support will depend on the applicable service agreement.

11

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Stratnovo retains ownership of its pre-existing intellectual property, proprietary systems, frameworks, reusable components, libraries, methodologies, tools, templates, know-how, and technology developed independently of a specific client project.

Client-specific deliverables and intellectual property rights will be governed by the applicable agreement between Stratnovo and the client.

Nothing in these Terms automatically transfers ownership of Stratnovo's pre-existing intellectual property.

Clients may not reproduce, distribute, sell, sublicense, reverse engineer, or commercially exploit Stratnovo proprietary technology without appropriate permission.

12

CLIENT CONTENT

Clients retain ownership of content, information, data, documents, trademarks, materials, and other intellectual property they provide to Stratnovo.

By providing such materials, the client confirms that they have the necessary rights and permissions for Stratnovo to use them for the agreed purpose.

Clients are responsible for ensuring that materials provided to Stratnovo do not unlawfully infringe the rights of another person or organisation.

13

CONFIDENTIALITY

Stratnovo recognises that clients may provide confidential business, technical, financial, operational, or other sensitive information.

We will handle confidential information in accordance with applicable contractual confidentiality obligations.

Clients are also expected to protect confidential information relating to Stratnovo, including proprietary software, technical information, business strategies, pricing, credentials, and other non-public information.

Where appropriate, the parties may enter into a separate Non-Disclosure Agreement.

14

DATA PROTECTION

Stratnovo takes data protection and privacy seriously.

Personal information processed through our website and services is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws.

Where Stratnovo processes personal information on behalf of a client, additional data-processing terms may apply.

Clients remain responsible for ensuring that they have an appropriate lawful basis and necessary permissions to provide personal information to Stratnovo.

Our Privacy Policy forms part of the framework governing how personal information is handled.

15

SECURITY

We take reasonable measures to protect our systems and information from unauthorised access, misuse, loss, or disruption.

However, no technology system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Clients are responsible for maintaining the security of credentials, accounts, API keys, passwords, access tokens, and other authentication information under their control.

Clients should immediately notify Stratnovo if they believe that credentials or access to a Stratnovo-managed system have been compromised.

16
