These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the OceanVast website and the systems design and integration services provided by IMMENSE OCEAN INVESTMENTS LIMITED. Please read these terms carefully before using our website or engaging our services.
01Acceptance of These Terms
By accessing or using the OceanVast website, contacting our team, or engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the website or our services.
These terms form a legally binding agreement between you and IMMENSE OCEAN INVESTMENTS LIMITED, the operator of OceanVast. We may require you to accept additional terms specific to a particular project or engagement, and those additional terms will apply together with these Terms of Service.
You represent that you are at least eighteen years of age and that you have the legal authority to enter into this agreement on behalf of yourself or the organization you represent, as applicable.
If any provision of these terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right under these terms does not constitute a waiver of that right.
02About Our Services
OceanVast provides computer systems design and related services, including systems architecture, cloud and infrastructure engineering, data engineering, security hardening, and managed operations. We operate within the Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services sector, with a focus on computer integrated systems design.
The scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees for any particular engagement are defined in a separate proposal, statement of work, or client agreement. Those documents, together with these terms, govern the specific services we provide. Where a conflict arises between these terms and a signed client agreement, the signed agreement controls to the extent of the conflict.
We strive to describe our services accurately on this website. However, descriptions are provided for general information and do not constitute a binding offer. We may update or discontinue any service description without prior notice.
Our services are professional in nature, and the results we deliver depend on factors including the accuracy and completeness of the information you provide, your timely cooperation, and the environment in which the systems are operated. We will keep you informed of any material risks or dependencies we identify as the work progresses.

Invoices are payable within the timeframe stated on the invoice. Late payments may be subject to interest or suspension of services at our discretion. We may require a deposit or payment in advance for certain services.
Where a client agreement includes milestone payments, each milestone must be paid before we commence work on the next milestone, unless we agree otherwise. You are responsible for reimbursing reasonable out-of-pocket expenses we incur with your prior approval.

Unpaid amounts that remain outstanding may be referred to collection, and you agree to reimburse us for reasonable costs incurred in recovering such amounts, to the extent permitted by law.
09Availability and Modification of Services
We aim to keep our website and services available and reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may suspend, limit, or modify the website or any service, in whole or in part, for maintenance, security, legal, or operational reasons, with or without notice.
We may also update, improve, or discontinue features over time. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes that affect services you are currently using, but we are not liable for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of services.
For ongoing engagements, the applicable client agreement may set out specific availability commitments and service level objectives, which will govern to the extent provided.
We may need to perform scheduled maintenance from time to time to keep our systems secure and up to date. Where feasible, we will provide advance notice of maintenance that is likely to disrupt services, and we will use reasonable efforts to schedule it during off-peak hours.
10Third Party Services
Our website and services may integrate with or link to third party products, services, or websites that are not controlled by us. We do not endorse and are not responsible for the content, functionality, or practices of any third party.
Your use of third party services may be subject to their own terms and policies. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with those terms. Any claims arising from your use of third party services are between you and the third party.
Where our services depend on third party platforms, we are not responsible for interruptions or failures caused by those platforms, and any applicable service commitments will be adjusted accordingly.
We do not guarantee that any third party integration will remain compatible with your systems over time, as third parties may change their offerings or pricing independently. We will use reasonable efforts to keep you informed of changes that could affect your use of our services.
11Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the website and our services are provided on an as is and as available basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that the website will be error-free, secure, or available at all times, or that the results of using our services will meet your expectations. Any advice or information obtained from us does not create any warranty not expressly stated in these terms or a signed client agreement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, IMMENSE OCEAN INVESTMENTS LIMITED, its affiliates, and their respective officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to these terms, the website, or our services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total aggregate liability will not exceed the amount you paid us for the services giving rise to the claim during the twelve months preceding the event, or one hundred United States dollars if no such fees were paid.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, so some of the limitations above may not apply to you. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, and nothing in these terms is intended to exclude or limit any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
12Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless IMMENSE OCEAN INVESTMENTS LIMITED, its affiliates, and their respective officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or related to your use of the website or services, your violation of these terms, or your infringement of any third party right.
We will provide you with prompt notice of any claim subject to indemnification, and we may participate in the defense at our own expense. You may not settle any claim that imposes obligations on us without our prior written consent.
13Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the website or services, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these terms or engaged in conduct that is harmful to us or others.
You may stop using the website at any time. Termination of a client engagement is governed by the terms of the applicable client agreement, including any provisions regarding notice, transition, and payment for work performed.
Upon termination, provisions of these terms that by their nature should survive will continue to apply, including provisions regarding intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law.
Termination does not relieve you of any obligation to pay fees that accrued before the effective date of termination. Any sections of a client agreement that address transition assistance, return of materials, or confidentiality will also survive in accordance with their terms.
14Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or the services will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
Before commencing formal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us to attempt to resolve any dispute amicably. We value our client relationships and will make a good faith effort to resolve disagreements through discussion.
Nothing in this section limits any right you may have under mandatory consumer protection or data protection laws in your jurisdiction.
If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, each party agrees to first attempt good faith negotiation before commencing arbitration or litigation, except where a party seeks urgent injunctive or equitable relief to protect its rights or property. Any arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules of a recognized arbitration institution agreed by the parties.
