Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of the ProcureDataLab website and services. ProcureDataLab is currently operated as a partnership between its two founders, Priyanshu Maity and Abhineet Bhattacharjee, based in Kolkata, West Bengal, India, pending formal company registration. By using our site or engaging our services, you agree to these Terms.

1. What we do

We provide procurement data engineering services, building and maintaining data pipelines that collect, structure, and deliver publicly available government procurement and tender data. Specific scope, deliverables, and fees for any engagement are set out in a separate written proposal or order, which both sides need to agree to before work begins.

2. Fees and payment

Fees are as agreed in writing for each engagement. Invoices are due per the agreed terms; we may pause work on overdue accounts. Cross-border payments may involve bank charges, currency conversion, and standard regulatory documentation, which is your responsibility unless we agree otherwise.

3. About our data sources

We collect data from publicly available government procurement portals. We use reasonable judgment in choosing sources, but we don't independently verify every source portal's terms of use for every jurisdiction. If you have specific compliance requirements about a particular data source, tell us before we start so we can check.

We don't warrant that the underlying government data we collect is complete, accurate, or up to date — you should verify anything you rely on for a bid, filing, or other important decision.

4. Intellectual property

Our scraper code, pipeline architecture, and the ProcureDataLab name and brand stay ours. Once you've paid for a delivery, you get a license to use the specific data we deliver to you for your business, as agreed in your order — you're not buying our underlying tools or methods.

5. Confidentiality

We'll keep your business information confidential, and we ask that you do the same with ours (like our pricing and methods), for as long as reasonably necessary.

6. Liability

Our services are provided as-is. To the extent allowed by law, neither side is responsible for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any engagement is capped at the fees you paid us for that engagement. This doesn't limit liability for things the law won't let us limit, like gross negligence or breach of confidentiality.

7. Ending the relationship

Either of us can end an ongoing engagement with reasonable written notice. You're responsible for fees owed up to that point, and we'll deliver any work you've already paid for.

8. Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. If a disagreement comes up, we'll try to resolve it directly first; if that doesn't work, we're open to mediation before anything more formal.

9. Other things worth knowing

• We may update these Terms as we grow — we'll post the updated date above when we do.
• If any part of these Terms turns out to be unenforceable, the rest still applies.
• These Terms, plus whatever you've agreed with us in writing for a specific engagement, are the whole deal between us.

ProcureDataLab is an early-stage business without a dedicated legal team. These Terms reflect our current practices in good faith and will be refined as we grow. If you need something specific in writing for your own compliance process, reach out and we'll work it out with you directly.
