Terms & Conditions

Last updated: July 2026

Welcome to TechAfrika. By accessing or using our website and services, you agree to be bound by the following Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before engaging our services.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By using TechAfrika's website (techafrika.co.za) or contracting any of our services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, please refrain from using our services.

2. Services Offered

TechAfrika provides digital and software services including but not limited to:

  • Custom software development (web, desktop, mobile)
  • Cloud solutions and infrastructure (Azure, hosting, DevOps)
  • Artificial intelligence and automation solutions
  • Website design and development
  • Mobile application development (Android, iOS)
  • Graphic design and UI/UX prototyping
  • Business systems (POS, Warehouse, Parking, HR)
  • Web and application hosting and domain registration
  • Technical support and maintenance

3. Service Agreements & Payments

All projects require a written or digital agreement before work commences. A deposit (agreed upon during consultation) is required upfront. The remaining balance is due upon project completion and before final deliverables or deployment. TechAfrika reserves the right to suspend or withhold deliverables in the event of non-payment.

4. Intellectual Property

Upon full payment, the client receives ownership of the final deliverables (e.g., website files, application code, designs). TechAfrika retains the right to showcase completed projects in its portfolio unless otherwise agreed in writing. Any third-party assets (libraries, fonts, frameworks) used in a project remain subject to their respective open-source or commercial licences.

5. Client Responsibilities

The client is responsible for:

  • Providing accurate content, images, and information required for the project
  • Reviewing and approving designs or milestones within agreed timeframes
  • Ensuring they have legal rights to any content or materials submitted to TechAfrika

Delays caused by the client may result in revised project timelines or additional charges.

6. Revisions & Scope Changes

Each project includes a defined number of revision rounds as agreed at commencement. Additional revisions or scope changes beyond the original agreement will be quoted and charged separately. Significant scope changes after development has commenced may require a revised project agreement.

7. Hosting & Domain Services

Where TechAfrika provides hosting or domain registration, the client is responsible for renewing these services after any included free period. TechAfrika is not liable for data loss due to server failures outside our control. Clients are encouraged to maintain their own backups.

8. Limitation of Liability

TechAfrika shall not be held liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use of our services or any downtime, data loss, or security breach beyond our reasonable control. Our liability in any event shall not exceed the total amount paid by the client for the specific service in dispute.

9. Confidentiality

TechAfrika agrees to keep all client information and project details confidential and will not disclose them to third parties without the client's written consent, except where required by law.

10. Termination

Either party may terminate a project engagement by providing written notice. In such cases, the client is liable for payment for all work completed up to the point of termination. Deposits are non-refundable unless TechAfrika is unable to commence work.

11. Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from these terms shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.

12. Changes to These Terms

TechAfrika reserves the right to update these Terms and Conditions at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting to this page. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
