6. Confidential Information

In the course of providing computer systems design and consulting services, PeaceStop may receive or have access to confidential and proprietary information belonging to its clients. Similarly, clients may receive or have access to confidential information belonging to PeaceStop. This section establishes the obligations of both parties with respect to the protection of such confidential information.

Definition of Confidential Information: Confidential Information means any non-public information disclosed by one party (the Disclosing Party) to the other party (the Receiving Party), either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or through any other medium, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. This includes, but is not limited to, trade secrets, business plans, financial data, customer lists, technical specifications, source code, system architecture documents, security assessments, and operational procedures.

Obligations of the Receiving Party: The Receiving Party agrees to hold confidential information in strict confidence, to use it only for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under the applicable Service Agreement, to restrict access to it to employees and contractors who have a need to know and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein, and to protect it using the same degree of care used to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature, but in no event less than reasonable care.

Exclusions: Confidential Information does not include information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party, was already known to the Receiving Party without restriction prior to disclosure, is rightfully received from a third party without obligation of confidentiality, or is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information if required by law, provided that it gives the Disclosing Party prompt notice and reasonable assistance to contest or limit the scope of such disclosure.

7. Payment and Billing Terms

The fees for PeaceStop services are specified in the applicable Service Agreement, Statement of Work, or Proposal provided to the client. This section sets forth the general payment and billing terms that apply to all engagements unless superseded by specific provisions in a signed Service Agreement.

Fees and Invoicing: Fees may be structured as fixed-price for defined project scopes, time-and-materials at agreed hourly or daily rates, or retainer-based for ongoing advisory and managed services. Invoices are issued according to the schedule set forth in the Service Agreement, typically upon achievement of defined milestones, on a monthly basis, or upon project completion. All fees are stated and payable in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Payment Terms: Unless otherwise specified in the Service Agreement, invoices are due and payable within thirty calendar days of the invoice date. Late payments may incur interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month, or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower. PeaceStop reserves the right to suspend services if payment is more than forty-five days past due, after providing the client with at least ten business days written notice of such suspension.

Taxes: Fees quoted do not include any applicable taxes, duties, or governmental levies. The client is responsible for paying all sales, use, value-added, withholding, and similar taxes imposed on the services provided, except for taxes based on the net income of PeaceStop. If PeaceStop is required to collect or remit any such taxes, the amount will be added to the invoice or separately invoiced to the client.

8. Service Availability and Maintenance

PeaceStop is committed to delivering reliable and professional services to all clients. This section describes our approach to service availability, scheduled maintenance, and the handling of service interruptions for managed and hosted services.

For managed integration services and any hosted solutions that we provide, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain service availability in accordance with the Service Level Agreement applicable to the specific engagement. Scheduled maintenance activities that may temporarily affect service availability will be communicated to clients at least forty-eight hours in advance whenever reasonably practicable, and we will endeavor to schedule such activities during low-usage periods to minimize disruption.

PeaceStop shall not be liable for any service interruptions or unavailability caused by factors beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to third-party service provider outages, internet backbone failures, denial-of-service attacks, or incidents described in Section 16 (Force Majeure) below. Clients are responsible for maintaining their own internet connectivity and computing environment necessary to access our services.

9. Third-Party Services and Links

The PeaceStop Website and our service engagements may involve interactions with third-party products, services, platforms, and websites that are not under our control. This section clarifies the relationship between PeaceStop and such third-party offerings.

Our Website may contain links to external websites and resources provided by third parties. These links are furnished solely for your convenience and do not constitute an endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation by PeaceStop. We have no control over the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites and expressly disclaim any liability arising from your use of or interaction with them.

11. Limitation of Liability

This section defines the extent of financial responsibility that PeaceStop assumes in connection with the Website and our services. These limitations are an essential element of the bargain between the parties and reflect the allocation of risk agreed upon.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall PeaceStop, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of data, loss of business opportunity, business interruption, or damage to reputation, whether such liability arises from contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other legal theory, even if PeaceStop has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The aggregate liability of PeaceStop for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Website, or our services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall not exceed the total amount of fees actually paid by the client to PeaceStop during the twelve-month period immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. For claims relating to the Website where no fees have been paid, the aggregate liability shall not exceed one hundred United States Dollars. These limitations apply regardless of the nature of the claim and even if any remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Your use of or access to the Website in violation of these Terms; your breach of any representation, warranty, or obligation set forth in these Terms or any applicable Service Agreement; your violation of any applicable law, regulation, or the rights of any third party, including intellectual property rights; any content, materials, or data that you submit, post, transmit, or otherwise make available through the Website or our services; or any negligent, reckless, or intentionally wrongful act or omission by you or your employees, agents, or contractors.

Any legal action, suit, or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the services provided by PeaceStop shall be instituted exclusively in the competent courts located in Yichang, Hubei Province, China. Each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waives any objection to venue or to the inconvenience of the forum. This choice of jurisdiction does not prevent PeaceStop from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights or confidential information.

15. Changes to These Terms

PeaceStop reserves the right to modify, amend, or replace these Terms at any time to reflect changes in our business practices, legal obligations, or the services we offer.

Such notice may be provided by posting a prominent announcement on the Website, sending an email to the address associated with your account or client record, or displaying a notice within your account interface upon login.

If you do not agree with any modification to these Terms, your sole remedy is to cease using the Website and our services and to terminate any ongoing service engagements in accordance with the termination provisions of the applicable Service Agreement. No modification to these Terms shall apply retroactively to any dispute or claim that arose prior to the effective date of the modification.

16. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Terms or any Service Agreement if such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

17. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with any applicable Service Agreement, Statement of Work, Non-Disclosure Agreement, or other written instrument mutually executed by the parties, constitute the entire agreement between you and PeaceStop concerning the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding such subject matter.

No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. The failure of either party to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision or of the right to enforce it at any subsequent time. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision shall be modified to achieve the intended economic effect to the maximum extent permitted by law, or severed if modification is not possible, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
