1. Acceptance of These Terms
These Terms of Service, together with our Privacy Policy and any other documents we reference, govern your access to and use of the website located at https://www.starvoyage.buzz and the services provided by JT Education Limited, doing business as Star Voyage. By accessing the website or using our services, you agree to be bound by these terms.
If you do not agree to these terms in full, you must not access the website or use our services. If you are entering into these terms on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these terms.
2. About Our Services
Star Voyage provides computer systems design and related services, including systems architecture and integration, cloud infrastructure design, custom software development, data systems and analytics, information technology strategy, and network and security design. These services are delivered under the broader categories of professional, scientific, and technical services and computer integrated systems design.
The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees for any engagement are set out in a separate written agreement between you and us. In the event of a conflict between these Terms of Service and a signed engagement agreement, the signed engagement agreement will control with respect to that engagement.
Our services are professional in nature and are provided with reasonable skill and care. Because technology environments evolve, we may recommend adjustments to scope, architecture, or timelines during an engagement. Any material change to an agreed scope will be documented and agreed in writing before work proceeds.
3. Eligibility

We may refuse access to the website or services to any person or entity at our discretion, where permitted by law.
We reserve the right to verify any information you provide, and to decline to provide services where we are unable to do so, where doing so would conflict with our obligations, or where we otherwise determine, in our reasonable discretion, that we cannot provide the services safely and lawfully.

Payment terms, including invoicing schedules and due dates, are set out in the applicable agreement. Late payments may incur interest or result in suspension of services as described in that agreement. Our obligation to provide services is contingent on your payment of amounts when due.
Expenses that are not included in a fixed fee, such as third party software licenses, hosting costs, or travel, will be itemized separately. We will seek your approval before incurring material expenses on your behalf.

Some of our services may integrate with third party products or platforms.

We will identify any third party dependencies that materially affect an engagement.
10. Disclaimer of Warranties
The website and services are provided on an as is and as available basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non infringement.
We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant that any results obtained from use of the website or services will be accurate or reliable.
Advice and deliverables are provided for your use in the context described in the applicable engagement agreement. They may not be relied upon for purposes beyond that context, and we accept no responsibility for decisions made outside the agreed scope of an engagement.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, JT Education Limited, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, arising out of or in connection with your use of the website or services.
Our total liability arising out of or in connection with these terms, the website, or the services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, will not exceed the greater of the amounts you have paid to us for the services in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred United States dollars.
The limitations in this section apply regardless of the legal theory on which a claim is based, including negligence, and apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
12. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless JT Education Limited, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in connection with your use of the website or services, your violation of these terms, or your violation of the rights of any third party.
This obligation continues after your use of the services ends. We will provide you with prompt notice of any claim subject to indemnification, and we may participate in the defense of such a claim at our own expense. You must not settle any claim without our prior written consent.
13. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the website or services at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, where permitted by law. Provisions of these terms that by their nature should survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimer of warranties, limitation of liability, and indemnification, will survive termination.
You may stop using the website and services at any time. Termination does not relieve you of any obligation to pay fees accrued before termination.
Upon termination, you will remain responsible for any amounts owed, and we will provide a reasonable opportunity for you to retrieve your data where applicable and subject to our retention obligations. We may delete account data after termination in accordance with our retention policies.
14. Modifications to the Services
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the website or services at any time, with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the website or services.
We may also update the content, features, and functionality of the services from time to time to improve them or to reflect changes in technology or our business.
We may also change the scope of specific services by written agreement with you. Where a change would affect deliverables, cost, or timeline, we will communicate the change clearly and obtain your written approval before proceeding. If we must make an unplanned change to protect security or comply with law, we will notify you as soon as reasonably possible.
15. Governing Law
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 in connection with these terms will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong, except where mandatory law provides otherwise.
If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated 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 waive that right.
16. Dispute Resolution
We encourage you to contact us first to resolve any dispute informally. We will make a good faith effort to address your concerns before resorting to formal proceedings. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, the parties may pursue remedies available under applicable law.
Where applicable, you agree to bring any claim within the time period required by law, and you waive any right to participate in a class action to the extent permitted by law.
Before initiating formal proceedings, each party agrees to give the other written notice of the dispute and to allow at least thirty days for good faith negotiation. This informal step applies to all disputes arising under or relating to these terms, to the extent permitted by law.
17. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms of Service from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and provide notice as required by law. Your continued use of the website or services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
If you do not agree to the revised terms, you must stop using the website and services.
If we make changes that materially affect your rights or obligations, we will provide notice through the website or by other reasonable means and give you an opportunity to review the changes. Continuing to use the services after the effective date of the changes constitutes your acceptance.
