All source code, software architecture, designs, patentable inventions, and work products created by Chocolate Dev dedicated engineers during the course of an active engagement belong exclusively and irrevocably to the client from the moment of creation. Chocolate Dev retains zero ownership rights or ongoing licensing claims over client deliverables.
Unlike traditional IT staffing agencies that impose punitive 15–30% placement penalty fees or mandatory multi-year retention lock-ins, Chocolate Dev offers flexible dedicated pod scaling with zero buyout fees and transparent 30-day notice adjustments.
All sprint code is subjected to automated test suites, static analysis, and code review prior to production pull request creation. We warrant that all custom software delivered conforms to agreed-upon technical RFC specifications and is free from malicious code or undisclosed third-party encumbrances.
These terms and all corresponding statements of work (SOWs) are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. For inquiries regarding custom enterprise MSAs, contact legal@chocolatedev.com.
