Terms of Service

These terms are a legal agreement between you and Plus Fourteen Enterprise, a business registered in Nigeria in May 2013 and referred to here as Plus Fourteen, we, or us. By visiting plusfourteen.com, submitting a form, or booking a call, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

Plus Fourteen provides IT consulting services including web development, network architecture consulting, cybersecurity vulnerability sweeps, and cloud migration. The website describes those services and lets you request one.

Nothing on this website is an offer or a binding quote. Scope, deliverables, timelines, fees, and payment terms for any engagement are agreed separately in a written proposal or statement of work. Where that written agreement conflicts with these terms, the written agreement governs for that engagement.

We offer an initial assessment and consultation at no charge. It is exactly that: an initial look, given in good faith, based on the information you share with us in a short conversation. It is general guidance, not a formal audit, not a security certification, and not a substitute for professional legal, financial, or regulatory advice.

You should not act on the free assessment alone where the decision carries material risk. A paid engagement is where we do the depth of work needed to stand behind a recommendation.

When you use this site or engage us, you agree to:

• Give accurate and complete information in forms and during an engagement
• Hold the authority to request work on any system, network, domain, or account you ask us to touch
• Provide timely access, approvals, credentials, and decisions where an engagement depends on them
• Keep your own credentials secure, and rotate anything you shared with us once work is complete
• Use the site lawfully, and not to send spam, malware, or automated bulk submissions
• Not attempt to probe, scan, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to the site or its infrastructure
• Not copy, scrape, resell, or republish our content without written permission

Security testing of any kind requires written authorization from the owner of the system in scope, obtained before work begins. We will ask for it, and we will not proceed without it.

Consulting is scoped and priced per engagement. Fees, currency, milestones, and payment schedule are set out in the proposal or statement of work you sign. Unless that document says otherwise, invoices are due within fourteen days of issue.

We may pause work on an engagement while an invoice is overdue. Third party costs passed through to you, such as hosting, domains, licences, and software subscriptions, are billed at cost and are your ongoing responsibility after handover.

The Plus Fourteen name, logo, site design, copy, and case notes belong to us. You may not use them without written permission, other than ordinary linking and fair quotation.

For work we deliver to you, ownership of the custom deliverables transfers to you once the engagement is paid in full. We retain ownership of our own pre existing tools, templates, libraries, configurations, and know how, and we grant you a perpetual licence to use those elements as embedded in your deliverables. Third party and open source components stay under their own licences.

We may describe the work in general terms in our portfolio. We will not publish your confidential information, and we will not name you as a client without your permission.

Information you share with us in confidence, including network diagrams, credentials, findings, and commercial terms, stays confidential. We will use it only to deliver your engagement, we will protect it with reasonable care, and we will return or destroy it on request once the work is complete. The same obligation runs in the other direction for anything we share with you.

This does not cover information that is already public, that either party already held lawfully, or that we are compelled to disclose by law.

The site embeds a third party scheduling widget and links to external websites, including the projects in our portfolio. We do not control those services and we are not responsible for their content, availability, or practices. Your use of them is governed by their own terms.

We will perform services with the reasonable skill and care expected of a competent professional in our field. That is the warranty we give.

Beyond it, the website and its content are provided as is, without warranty of any kind. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error free, that any particular result, ranking, uptime figure, cost saving, or security outcome will be achieved, or that a system will be free of vulnerabilities after we work on it. Security work reduces risk. It does not eliminate it, and no honest consultant will tell you otherwise.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Plus Fourteen is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, arising out of your use of this site or of our services.

Our total aggregate liability arising from any engagement is limited to the fees you actually paid us for that engagement in the twelve months preceding the claim. Where no fees were paid, including for the free assessment, our aggregate liability is limited to fifty thousand naira.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability for fraud, for wilful misconduct, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded.

You agree to indemnify Plus Fourteen against claims, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your breach of these terms, from your misuse of the site, or from your failure to hold the authority you represented you had over a system we were asked to work on.

We may suspend or withdraw access to the site at any time, and we may decline or end an engagement where the work would be unlawful, unauthorized, unsafe, or outside our competence. Either party may terminate an engagement in writing on the notice period set out in the relevant statement of work. On termination you pay for work completed and for committed third party costs up to that date.

Our handling of personal information is described in the Plus Fourteen Privacy Policy at plusfourteen.com/privacy, which forms part of these terms.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Nigerian courts. Before starting proceedings, both parties agree to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith through direct discussion.

If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign your rights under an engagement without our written consent. These terms, together with any signed statement of work, are the entire agreement between us on their subject matter.

We may update these terms. The effective date at the top of this page shows when the current version took effect, and continuing to use the site after an update means you accept it.
