These terms cover what you get from a Cleverbench subscription, what we ask of you, and how either side can step away. We've kept them plain on purpose — if anything reads unclear, email us and we'll explain it in person.
Cleverbench (“Cleverbench”, “we”, “us”) is a software development studio based in East Legon, Accra, Ghana, operating the website thecleverbench.com. We design and build web and mobile products for clients on a flat monthly subscription. By subscribing to a plan or otherwise using our services, you (“you”, the “client”) agree to these Terms of Service.
A Cleverbench subscription gives you access to a private request board where you can submit design and development work. We work through your active requests one or two at a time, in tight revision loops, until each is right. Specifics depend on the plan you choose:
A subscription is a service to produce work, not a guarantee of a specific outcome, feature volume, or completion date for any particular project.
Subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring monthly basis through our third-party payment processor. Your billing cycle starts on the day your subscription begins and renews automatically on the same date each month until you pause or cancel.
There’s no lock-in. You can manage your subscription at any time:
Cancelling stops future billing; it does not, by itself, entitle you to a refund of the current cycle. See our Refund Policy for how refunds are handled.
You own what we build for you. Once a deliverable is paid for and handed over, all intellectual property rights in the final, custom work product transfer to you. The exceptions are the ordinary ones:
To do our best work we rely on you to:
Delays in feedback or access naturally move timelines; that’s on the queue, not on us.
Anything you share with us that isn’t public — plans, code, data, ideas — we treat as confidential and use only to deliver your work. We’ll ask the same of you for anything we share that isn’t public. This survives the end of your subscription.
We provide the service with reasonable skill and care. Beyond that, the service is provided “as is” without further warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We don’t warrant that deliverables will be uninterrupted or error-free in every environment.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Cleverbench is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses, and our total liability arising out of or relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the three months before the claim arose.
We may pause or end a subscription if payments fail, if these terms are breached, or if a request would have us do something unlawful, unsafe, or outside what we offer. Where it’s reasonable to, we’ll tell you first and give you a chance to put it right.
We may update these terms as the studio evolves. When we make a material change we’ll revise the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, let active clients know. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the updated terms.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Ghana, and the courts of Ghana have jurisdiction over any dispute — without prejudice to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have where you live.
