Technical Advisory
This document governs engagements for Codemodo's Technical Advisory service only. Technical Advisory covers time-based advisory sessions for technology audits, architecture reviews, stack recommendations, and digital transformation direction. It does not cover implementation, design, or development of any kind.
Service-Specific Terms
Payment
| Term | Amount | When |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit | 1 hour fee (IDR 700,000) | To secure the booking slot (minimum 1 business day in advance) |
| Remaining balance | Hours used minus deposit | Within 3 business days after session |
Late Payment
If the remaining balance is not received within 3 business days after the session, all ongoing work with the client is paused until the balance is cleared.
Deliverable
A written summary of findings and recommendations is delivered within 7 business days after the session. The session itself is not the deliverable. The written output is.
Session Scope
Technical Advisory sessions are for advisory purposes only. The session does not include:
- Development, design, or implementation of any kind
- Business strategy or financial planning
- Vendor negotiation or procurement
- Ongoing support after the session. Each session is a standalone engagement.
Discovery Call Conversion
If a client requests architecture recommendations, system evaluation, or technical decisions during a free discovery call (intended for project scoping only), the session automatically converts to a Technical Advisory engagement and is charged at IDR 700,000/hour from that point. Minimum billing on conversion: 1 hour.
No Guarantee of Outcome
Technical Advisory is an advisory service. Recommendations reflect Codemodo's professional judgment based on information provided during the session. Codemodo is not responsible for the results of any implementation carried out by the client or third parties based on these recommendations. The quality of recommendations is directly affected by the completeness and accuracy of information the client provides.
Recurring Sessions
Technical Advisory sessions can be booked on a recurring basis. Each session is an independent engagement. There is no retainer or subscription model.
Cancellation
- If cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice: deposit is non-refundable.
- If cancelled with at least 1 business day's notice: deposit may be applied to a rescheduled session.
- No-show: full deposit is forfeited.
Proposal Validity
Technical Advisory bookings are confirmed on a per-session basis. No formal proposal validity period applies.
General Terms
These terms apply to all Codemodo service engagements. They are incorporated into every signed Service Agreement, alongside the applicable service-specific terms.
Intellectual Property
Full intellectual property rights transfer to the client upon receipt of final and complete payment. This covers source code, design files, documentation, and all project assets. No IP is transferred until all outstanding payments are settled.
During the project, all work-in-progress remains the property of Codemodo. Client access during the project is via preview link only.
Confidentiality
Both parties agree to keep all project information, business data, technical details, and commercial terms confidential. Codemodo will not disclose project details publicly without explicit written consent from the client.
Codemodo is willing to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) at no additional cost before any detailed project discussion. Request via info@codemodo.dev.
Asset Delivery
Source code, project assets, design files, and documentation are released to the client only after full and complete payment is received for the relevant milestone or project.
Client Responsibilities
The client is responsible for:
- Providing accurate and complete information during discovery and briefing
- Delivering all required assets (logo, copy, images, credentials) by the agreed date
- Designating a single point of contact with authority to give approvals
- Responding to review requests and sign-offs within the agreed feedback window
- Providing access credentials (server, domain, third-party services) before production deployment
Change Orders
Any request that expands, reduces, or materially changes the agreed scope of work is handled via a Change Order. Codemodo will issue a written Change Order describing the change, its impact on timeline and cost, and the additional fee (if any). Work on the change does not begin until the Change Order is signed by the client. Change Orders are addenda to the original contract and are governed by these same terms.
Subcontracting
Codemodo does not subcontract core development, design, or planning work to third parties without explicit written agreement from the client. If subcontracting is proposed, Codemodo will disclose the scope of work to be subcontracted and the third party involved before proceeding.
Portfolio & Case Study Rights
Codemodo may reference the client's company name and a general description of the engagement (e.g., "built a fintech platform") in its portfolio, website, and marketing materials.
Detailed case studies require explicit written consent from the client before publication. This includes screenshots, metrics, client logos, and testimonials. The client may revoke portfolio permission at any time by written notice. Codemodo will remove the referenced material within 10 business days.
Termination by Codemodo
Codemodo may terminate an engagement under any of the following circumstances:
- The client is unresponsive for 30 or more consecutive business days despite written follow-up
- Payment remains outstanding for 30 or more business days past the due date
- The client engages in conduct that materially obstructs project delivery
Limitation of Liability
Codemodo's total liability for any claim arising from an engagement is limited to the total fees paid by the client for that specific service. Codemodo is not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental damages.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Indonesia. Any disputes shall be resolved through good-faith negotiation first. If a dispute is not resolved within 30 days of written notice, either party may pursue mediation through BANI (Badan Arbitrase Nasional Indonesia) or a mutually agreed mediator. If mediation does not resolve the dispute within 30 days, either party may escalate through the courts of Jakarta.
Force Majeure
Neither party is liable for delays or failures caused by circumstances beyond reasonable control. This includes natural disasters, internet or infrastructure outages, government actions, and public health emergencies. The affected party must notify the other in writing as soon as reasonably possible. Project timelines will be adjusted accordingly. Payment obligations for work already completed remain in effect.
Currency & Tax
All prices are quoted in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) and are exclusive of PPN (Pajak Pertambahan Nilai / Value Added Tax) unless explicitly stated otherwise. PPN, if applicable, will be added to the invoice at the prevailing rate. Tax invoices (faktur pajak) are issued upon client request.
Survival
The following provisions survive the termination or expiration of any engagement:
- Intellectual Property
- Confidentiality
- Data Protection & Privacy
- Limitation of Liability
- Portfolio & Case Study Rights
Data Protection & Privacy
All client data is used solely for the purpose of delivering the engaged service. This includes business information, user data, credentials, and project-related materials. Codemodo does not use client data for other engagements, training, marketing, or any purpose beyond the scope of the active project.
Work-in-progress data stored in staging and development environments is deleted within 30 business days after the project is completed or terminated. The client may request earlier deletion in writing.
Both parties agree to handle personal data in accordance with applicable Indonesian data protection regulations, including UU PDP (Undang-Undang Pelindungan Data Pribadi).
