Terms and Conditions

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern the rights and obligations between users ("Customer", "User") and jForth (a product exclusively commercialised by JDO GROUP) when accessing the website, submitting ideas, booking a consultation or using our service that works alongside you to turn ideas into technology products (the "Service").

By submitting information, booking a consultation or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to be legally bound by these Terms.

1. General Conditions

1.1. Users must carefully read and agree to all provisions of these Terms before using the jForth Service.

1.2. Users agree not to use the jForth Service for any purpose that:

• Violates the laws of Vietnam or the laws of the country/region in which the User operates;
• Involves developing products, content or activities that are fraudulent, deceptive or contrary to the law;
• Infringes the lawful rights and interests, including intellectual property rights, of any organisation or individual.

1.3. Users shall not:

• Use jForth's trademarks, logos or images for advertising or any marketing activity without authorisation.

1.4. Users acknowledge and understand that:

• Initial consultation is for guidance only; the specific scope of work, timeline and cost are set out in the proposal or service contract between the parties;
• The timeline and quality of delivery depend in part on the information, documents and feedback the User provides completely and on time;
• Information transmitted over the internet and through third-party services (cloud infrastructure, network operators, payment gateways, etc.) may be subject to technical risks beyond jForth's reasonable control.

2. Rights of jForth

jForth reserves the right to:

2.1. Amend or update these Terms to align with business strategy or legal requirements. Updated versions take effect when published on the official website.

2.2. Refuse, suspend, restrict or terminate the Service in cases of:

• Deliberately providing false information about identity, organisation, or rights to the ideas or documents proposed for development;
• Fraud, infringement of intellectual property rights, or unauthorised interference with jForth's systems;
• Requests to develop products or content that are unlawful or that infringe the lawful rights and interests of third parties.

2.3. Request documents to verify rights to the ideas, content or data provided in the event of a dispute (for example: an organisation's legal documents, an agreement between co-founders, or a valid letter of authorisation). If lawful rights cannot be established, jForth reserves the right to suspend the Service for that content until a final resolution is reached.

4. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

4.1. Consulting and results: jForth provides consulting, shaping and building of technology products based on the information provided by the Customer. jForth does not guarantee business results, revenue or market acceptance of the Customer's product, unless specifically committed in writing in the service contract.

4.2. jForth is not liable for:

• Indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from the use of or inability to use the Service;
• Interruptions caused by network operators, cloud infrastructure, third-party services chosen by the User, or widespread outages;
• Delays caused by the User providing information, feedback or acceptance late.

4.3. In any event, jForth's total liability shall not exceed the total service fees paid by the User under the service contract applicable to the item giving rise to the liability.

5. Intellectual Property

5.1. The website, documents, working methods, interface, content, and the existing solution components and systems of jForth and JDO GROUP are the lawful property of jForth and JDO GROUP.

5.2. jForth does not claim ownership of ideas, content or data provided by Users. The User's idea belongs to the User. Ownership and usage rights to the delivered product are set out in the service contract between the parties; the existing components of jForth and JDO GROUP are licensed for use within the scope of the contract.

5.3. By submitting information to jForth, Users agree to:

• Grant jForth the right to store, process and use that information solely for receiving, assessing and providing the Service to that User;
• Take full responsibility for the legality, accuracy and lawful rights to the ideas, content and data provided.

6. Confidentiality & Data Protection

6.1. jForth is committed to protecting Customers' ideas, business information and project documents in accordance with its published Privacy Policy. At the Customer's request, the two parties may sign a separate non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for each project.

• Information that is publicly available at the time of disclosure;
• Information disclosed in response to a lawful request from a competent authority;
• Information lawfully obtained from a third party.

6.3. jForth shall not disclose customers' ideas, documents or management information to third parties except where:

• The User has given consent (for example, allowing a technology partner to join the project);
• Required by law or by a competent state authority.

7. Termination & Entire Agreement

7.1. jForth's failure to enforce any provision at any time shall not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision in the future.

7.2. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between the User and jForth and supersede all prior agreements or communications on the same subject. Where the parties have signed a separate service contract, that contract prevails on the matters it covers.

7.3. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
