You retain ownership of your User Content, subject to any rights necessary for ORIGEN to provide the relevant Service.

By submitting User Content, you grant ORIGEN a limited, non-exclusive licence to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit and otherwise use that Content only as reasonably necessary to:

16

Third-Party Services

Our Platforms may integrate with or depend on third-party services.

These may include:

  • payment providers;
  • cloud infrastructure providers;
  • analytics services;
  • advertising platforms;
  • authentication providers;
  • app stores;
  • logistics providers;
  • communication providers;
  • APIs;
  • mapping services; and
  • other technology providers.

Third-party services may have their own terms and privacy policies.

ORIGEN is not responsible for the independent operation, availability, security or policies of third-party services.

17

Payment Processing

Payments may be processed through third-party payment processors.

By initiating a payment, you authorise the applicable payment provider to process the transaction according to its terms.

ORIGEN may receive transaction information necessary to:

  • confirm payment;
  • fulfil an order;
  • provide a service;
  • issue refunds;
  • manage disputes;
  • prevent fraud; and
  • maintain financial records.

ORIGEN does not generally store complete payment-card information on its own systems.

18

Prices

Prices displayed through our Platforms may be:

  • changed at any time;
  • subject to applicable taxes;
  • subject to delivery charges;
  • subject to promotional conditions; or
  • subject to product-specific terms.

We endeavour to maintain accurate pricing information but errors may occasionally occur.

Where an obvious pricing error occurs, ORIGEN may contact you before fulfilling the affected order or may cancel the order where legally permitted.

19

Orders

Submitting an order constitutes an offer to purchase.

An order is not necessarily accepted until ORIGEN confirms acceptance or begins fulfilment, depending on the relevant Service.

ORIGEN may decline or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including where:

  • a product is unavailable;
  • a pricing error occurred;
  • payment cannot be verified;
  • fraud is suspected;
  • delivery is unavailable;
  • the order violates these Terms; or
  • required information is incomplete.

Where payment has already been received for a cancelled order, the applicable refund process will apply.

20

Product Information

We endeavour to provide accurate:

  • product descriptions;
  • photographs;
  • prices;
  • specifications;
  • availability information; and
  • other product details.

However, colours, dimensions, photographs and other representations may vary due to:

  • screen settings;
  • photography;
  • manufacturing variations;
  • supplier changes; or
  • other circumstances.

We do not warrant that every product description will always be completely error-free.

21

Delivery

Where products are purchased through an ORIGEN-operated store, delivery times are estimates unless expressly guaranteed.

Delivery may be affected by:

  • courier delays;
  • weather;
  • public holidays;
  • incorrect addresses;
  • customer unavailability;
  • customs;
  • third-party logistics providers;
  • force majeure events; or
  • other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

You are responsible for providing accurate delivery information.

22

Refunds, Returns and Cancellations

Refunds, returns, replacements and cancellations are governed by the applicable Refund Policy and any product-specific terms.

Where a separate Refund Policy applies, it forms part of these Terms.

Nothing in these Terms excludes mandatory consumer rights available under applicable law.

23

Subscriptions and Recurring Services

Certain ORIGEN Services may be offered through recurring subscriptions.

Where applicable, subscription terms will specify:

  • subscription period;
  • price;
  • billing frequency;
  • renewal conditions;
  • cancellation procedure;
  • applicable limits; and
  • refund conditions.

Unless otherwise specified, subscriptions may automatically renew until cancelled.

You authorise the applicable payment provider to charge the applicable recurring fee where you have agreed to recurring billing.

24

Cancellation of Subscriptions

You may cancel a subscription using the cancellation mechanism provided for the relevant Service.

Cancellation generally prevents future renewal but may not automatically entitle you to a refund for a current billing period unless otherwise stated or required by law.

ORIGEN may suspend or terminate subscriptions where:

  • payment fails;
  • fraudulent activity is suspected;
  • these Terms are violated;
  • the Service is discontinued; or
  • required for legal or security reasons.
25

Development and Technology Services

ORIGEN may provide:

  • website development;
  • mobile application development;
  • web application development;
  • software development;
  • e-commerce development;
  • UI/UX development;
  • integrations;
  • maintenance;
  • hosting;
  • technical consulting;
  • digital product development; and
  • related technology services.

The scope, price, timelines, deliverables and ownership arrangements for such projects may be governed by a separate:

  • quotation;
  • proposal;
  • statement of work;
  • service agreement;
  • development agreement; or
  • other written contract.

Where a separate agreement exists, that agreement governs the specific project to the extent of any conflict with these general Terms.

26

Project Scope and Changes

Development projects may depend on information, materials and approvals provided by the customer.

Changes requested after approval of a project scope may:

  • increase development time;
  • increase project cost;
  • require additional resources;
  • change delivery dates; or
  • require a revised scope.

ORIGEN may require written approval of additional charges or revised scope before implementing material changes.

27

Customer Responsibilities for Development Projects

Customers engaging ORIGEN for development services are responsible for providing:

  • accurate requirements;
  • required content;
  • appropriate access credentials;
  • required licences;
  • timely feedback;
  • necessary approvals;
  • legally compliant content;
  • lawful instructions; and
  • other materials reasonably required for the project.

Delays caused by the customer's failure to provide required information or approvals may affect project timelines.

28

Client Data and Confidential Information

Where ORIGEN receives confidential information or personal data from a customer, such information will be handled in accordance with:

  • applicable law;
  • the Privacy Policy;
  • contractual confidentiality obligations;
  • applicable data-processing agreements; and
  • project-specific agreements.

Customers must not provide ORIGEN with information that they are legally prohibited from sharing.

29

Intellectual Property in Client Projects

Ownership of project deliverables will depend on the applicable project agreement.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing:

  • ORIGEN retains ownership of its pre-existing software, frameworks, libraries, tools, templates, methodologies, know-how and reusable components;
  • third-party components remain subject to their respective licences;
  • customer-provided materials remain the customer's property; and
  • ownership or licensing of bespoke deliverables will be governed by the applicable agreement.

Payment for a project does not automatically transfer ownership of ORIGEN's underlying technology, frameworks or reusable components.

30

Third-Party Intellectual Property

Our Services may include software, libraries, fonts, APIs, images or other materials licensed from third parties.

Such materials remain subject to their applicable licences.

You agree to comply with those licences where applicable.

  • always be available;
  • be uninterrupted;
  • be error-free;
  • be compatible with every device;

  • remain unchanged indefinitely.

We may temporarily suspend access for:

  • security measures;
  • technical failures;
  • infrastructure changes;
  • emergencies; or
  • other legitimate operational reasons.
32

Service Modifications

ORIGEN may modify, suspend, replace or discontinue features or Services.

Where commercially and legally appropriate, we may provide reasonable notice of significant discontinuation.

ORIGEN will not be liable for modifications or discontinuation to the extent permitted by applicable law.

34

Privacy

Your use of our Services is also subject to our Privacy Policy.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store and protect personal data.

By using our Services, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed as described in the Privacy Policy.

35

Marketing

Where permitted by applicable law, ORIGEN may send promotional communications.

You may opt out of marketing communications at any time.

Opting out of marketing communications does not prevent us from sending essential communications concerning:

  • your account;
  • transactions;
  • security;
  • legal notices;
  • service availability; or
  • other necessary matters.
36

Reviews and Feedback

If you submit:

  • reviews;
  • suggestions;
  • comments;
  • ideas;
  • feedback;
  • feature requests; or
  • other communications,

you grant ORIGEN permission to use such feedback for legitimate business purposes, subject to applicable law.

You should not submit confidential information through public reviews or feedback channels.

You represent that your submission does not violate another person's rights.

37

Advertising

ORIGEN may display advertisements or promotional content through its Platforms.

Advertising content may be provided by ORIGEN or third parties.

ORIGEN does not necessarily endorse every third-party advertisement, product or service displayed through a Platform.

39

Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Services are provided on an "as available" and "as is" basis.

40

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, ORIGEN and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive losses arising from or relating to use of the Services.

  • other indirect losses.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

41

Maximum Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, where ORIGEN is found liable for a claim arising from a paid Service, ORIGEN's aggregate liability will generally be limited to the amount paid by the affected user or customer to ORIGEN for the specific Service giving rise to the claim during the applicable period preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

This limitation does not apply where such limitation is prohibited by applicable law.

Different limits may apply where expressly agreed in a written commercial agreement.

42

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless ORIGEN and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and reasonable expenses arising from:

  • unlawful use of our Services;
  • infringement of third-party rights;
  • User Content you provide;
  • fraudulent activity;
  • misuse of our Services; or
  • your violation of applicable law.

This provision does not require you to indemnify ORIGEN for losses caused by ORIGEN's own unlawful conduct to the extent such liability cannot legally be transferred.

43

Force Majeure

ORIGEN will not be responsible for delays or failures caused by circumstances reasonably beyond our control.

Such circumstances may include:

  • your account creates a security risk;
  • fraudulent activity is suspected;
  • payment obligations are not met;
  • required by law;

  • misuse is detected; or
  • necessary to protect ORIGEN, users or third parties.

Upon termination:

  • your right to use the affected Service may cease;
  • access to your account may be restricted;
  • outstanding payment obligations remain payable;

Where legally and contractually required, ORIGEN may provide access to or deletion of relevant customer data following termination.

46

Account Deletion

Where a Service permits account deletion, you may request deletion through the available account controls or by contacting ORIGEN.

Deletion may not immediately remove all information where retention is required or permitted for:

  • legal compliance;
  • accounting;
  • taxation;
  • fraud prevention;
  • security;
  • dispute resolution;
  • contractual enforcement;
  • backups; or
  • other legitimate purposes.

Further details are provided in our Privacy Policy.

47

Governing Law

These Terms are intended to be governed primarily by the laws of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, subject to applicable mandatory laws and consumer protections.

Nothing in these Terms prevents a consumer from exercising mandatory rights available under the law applicable to that consumer.

48

Dispute Resolution

ORIGEN encourages users and customers to contact us first to resolve disputes informally.

You may contact:

hello@origen.lk

Where a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it may be referred to the appropriate courts, tribunals or other dispute-resolution mechanisms having jurisdiction under applicable law and any valid contractual agreement.

For commercial projects, a separate service agreement may establish specific dispute-resolution procedures.

49

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be interpreted or modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable where legally possible.

The remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

50

No Waiver

Failure by ORIGEN to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce that provision in the future.

51

Assignment

You may not transfer or assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without ORIGEN's prior written consent, except where permitted by applicable law.

ORIGEN may transfer or assign its rights and obligations in connection with:

  • a merger;
  • acquisition;
  • restructuring;
  • sale of assets;
  • corporate reorganisation; or
  • transfer of a Service,

provided that applicable legal obligations are satisfied.

  • subscription terms;
  • service agreement;
  • statement of work;

  • other incorporated policies,

constitute the agreement governing your use of the relevant Service.

Where a specific written agreement applies to a particular commercial relationship, that agreement will govern the relevant relationship to the extent of any conflict.

53

No Partnership or Agency

Nothing in these Terms creates:

  • a partnership;
