Nothing in these Terms transfers any right, title, or interest in DialledOps's underlying intellectual property to the Client.
7. Regulatory Compliance
7.1 DialledOps provides TPS/CTPS and US DNC screening as a service feature. This screening is conducted as a reasonable technical measure to reduce the Client's regulatory exposure.

9. Confidentiality
Each party agrees to keep the other's confidential information — including commercial terms, client data, system configurations, and business processes — strictly confidential. Neither party may disclose the other's confidential information to any third party without prior written consent, except as required by law or court order. This obligation survives termination of the engagement for a period of 3 years.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- DialledOps's total aggregate liability for any claim arising from an engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client under the applicable SOW in the 3 months preceding the claim
- Neither party shall be liable to the other for indirect, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including loss of revenue or loss of business opportunity
- DialledOps does not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, or continuous operation of any third-party platform, carrier, or data service forming part of the system

Monthly services may be cancelled by either party with 30 days' written notice. Fees for the notice period remain payable.
Project engagements may be terminated by the Client at any time on written notice. Fees for completed project phases are non-refundable. DialledOps may terminate immediately for non-payment or material breach that remains unremedied after 7 days' written notice.
