Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of this website, operated by k3v Technologies LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company ("k3v Technologies," "k3v," "we," "us," "our"). By using the site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using the website, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

2. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "last updated" date reflects the most recent change, and your continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept them.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use this site.

4. Use of the website

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the site for lawful informational and business purposes. You agree not to use the site unlawfully; attempt to gain unauthorized access to the site or its systems; disrupt or interfere with its operation or security; introduce malware; scrape or harvest data by automated means; impersonate any person; or use the site to send spam or for any fraudulent purpose.

5. No engagement until agreed in writing

Nothing on this site, and no message sent through the contact form, creates a contractual, employment, agency, or other professional relationship. An engagement begins only when k3v Technologies LLC and the client sign a written agreement (such as a Statement of Work or Master Services Agreement) describing the scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees. Any such agreement is between the client and k3v Technologies LLC, and not with any individual member, officer, or employee of k3v Technologies LLC.

6. Software engineering services

Software engineering and related professional services, when engaged, are governed by the applicable written agreement. We perform services in a professional and workmanlike manner consistent with industry standards. Unless expressly stated in writing, we do not guarantee specific results or outcomes. Clients agree to provide the information, access, and decisions reasonably needed to perform the work; delays in doing so may affect timelines and fees.

7. Intellectual property

The content, design, and code of this website are owned by k3v Technologies LLC, except where noted, and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Ownership of deliverables created under an engagement is governed solely by the applicable written agreement; nothing on this site grants, assigns, or transfers any rights in deliverables. We retain ownership of our general knowledge, methods, tools, and techniques, including anything developed before or independently of an engagement. Product names, logos, and trademarks of third parties, where shown, remain the property of their respective owners; their appearance does not imply endorsement.

8. Confidentiality

Where the parties exchange non-public information in connection with a potential or active engagement, each party agrees to keep it confidential and use it only for the purpose for which it was shared. Specific confidentiality terms are set out in the applicable written agreement or NDA and survive termination.

9. Fees and payment

Fees for services are set out in the applicable written agreement and are payable in U.S. dollars. Late amounts may accrue interest at the lower of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law. Clients reimburse pre-approved, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

10. Disclaimers

The website is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, k3v Technologies LLC and its members, officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site. Our total aggregate liability relating to the site, across all claims, will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100). Liability for paid engagements is governed by the applicable written agreement.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or of incidental or consequential damages. Where those laws apply, the exclusions and limitations above apply only to the fullest extent those laws permit, and nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless k3v Technologies LLC and its members, officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

13. Third-party links

The site may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices, and visiting them is at your own risk.

14. Termination

We may suspend or remove access to the site at any time, with or without notice. Sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification) will survive.

15. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state courts located in Steele County, Minnesota, and the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, except that either party may seek injunctive relief to protect its intellectual property or confidential information in any court of competent jurisdiction.

16. Notices

Legal notices to us must be in writing and sent to k3v Technologies LLC, 202 N Cedar Ave, Ste 1, Owatonna, MN 55060, with a copy by email to kevin@k3v.build. Notices are effective on delivery. We may send notices to you at the email address you provide to us.

17. General

These Terms, together with any applicable written agreement and our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and k3v Technologies LLC regarding the site. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them freely. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.

18. Electronic communications

You consent to receive communications from us electronically, and you agree that electronic notices satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
