2. Scope of Applicability & Bilateral Agreements
2.1 Applicability to Website & Online Offerings (ValueLeap)
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern the use of the website valueleap.io and any associated digital content, publications, capability overviews, delivery location guides, or online services provided under ValueLeap (collectively, the “Online Offerings”), operated by Dal Molin Consulting GmbH (“Operator”, “we”, “us”). ValueLeap provides B2B software engineering sourcing advisory, Partner Selection support, market analysis, and access to an actively managed network of Software Engineering Partners and regional Client Partners.
2.2 Acceptance & Modifications
By accessing the website valueleap.io or using the Online Offerings of ValueLeap, you agree to these Terms specifically for ValueLeap. Our offerings are intended exclusively for business, professional, and commercial users (Tech Buyers, Software Engineering Partners, and industry professionals aged 18 or older). We reserve the right to update these Terms or modify any part of the Online Offerings at any time with effect for the future.
2.3 Informational Nature of Sourcing Insights & Market Overviews
All capability descriptions, sourcing model comparisons, delivery location briefs, and insights published on valueleap.io are provided for general B2B informational and orientation purposes only. They do not constitute binding legal, tax, financial, or procurement advice.
2.4 Separate Bilateral Agreements & Order of Precedence (Sourcing Mandates, Partner & Client Partner Agreements)
Accessing valueleap.io, reading publications, or submitting a sourcing inquiry or contact request does not by itself establish a binding consulting mandate, brokerage relationship, or commercial obligation. Specific bilateral engagements—including Tech Buyer consulting or RFI/RFP mandates, Software Engineering Partner network and syndication agreements, Client Partner / ambassador agreements (governing introductions, territories, and commissions), and Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs)—require a separate written agreement with Dal Molin Consulting GmbH. In the event of any conflict between a signed bilateral agreement and these general Terms of Use, the signed bilateral agreement shall prevail.
3. Inquiries, Gated Resources & Accounts
3.1 Sourcing Inquiries, Briefs & Downloads
When submitting a sourcing need, requesting a partner shortlist, or downloading resources on valueleap.io, you agree to provide accurate business contact details (such as name, work email, and organization) and not to use impersonated or disposable addresses.
3.2 Unified Account Access (Where Applicable)
Where ValueLeap offers authenticated workspace or portal features, sign-in is powered by the unified identity infrastructure of Dal Molin Consulting GmbH. Your acceptance of these Terms and any communication preferences apply specifically to ValueLeap.
3.3 Commercial Compensation & Consulting Fees
With respect to commercial engagements initiated through ValueLeap:
- Partner Selection & Network Compensation: Depending on the engagement model, participating Software Engineering Partners may compensate ValueLeap under separate written partner agreements.
- Dedicated Consulting & RFI/RFP Mandates: Extensive advisory work—such as sourcing strategy, custom market analysis, RFI/RFP management, or on-site assessments—is provided exclusively on an agreed consulting-fee basis set out in a written mandate.
- Taxes & Invoicing: All commercial fees are exclusive of applicable value-added tax (VAT) unless explicitly stated otherwise in the written agreement.
4. Intellectual Property, License & Submissions
4.1 Operator Intellectual Property
All rights, title, and interest in ValueLeap and valueleap.io—including sourcing methodologies, capability taxonomies, delivery location analyses, visual design, trademarks, and publications—remain the exclusive property of Dal Molin Consulting GmbH or its licensors.
4.2 Limited License
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access valueleap.io for your internal business evaluation and sourcing preparation. You may not systematically copy, scrape, republish, or commercially redistribute our publications or partner network intelligence without prior written consent.
4.3 Sourcing Briefs & Feedback
You retain ownership of all business and project requirements you submit to us. By submitting a sourcing inquiry, you authorize us to evaluate your requirements internally and—only after alignment with you—share relevant project parameters with suitable Software Engineering Partners.
5. Acceptable Use & Partner Selection Rules
5.1 General Acceptable Use
You agree not to misuse valueleap.io, interfere with platform security, use automated scraping tools, or submit unlawful or misleading inquiries.
5.2 ValueLeap — Partner Selection & Contracting Principles
For all Partner Selection and sourcing activities associated with ValueLeap:
- Direct Contracting Between Tech Buyers & Engineering Partners: Any master services agreement, statement of work, or project contract resulting from a ValueLeap introduction or shortlist is concluded directly between the Tech Buyer and the respective Software Engineering Partner.
- Independent Due Diligence: While ValueLeap maintains regular contact with its Software Engineering Partner network, Tech Buyers remain responsible for their own final technical, legal, commercial, and security due diligence prior to contracting.
- Confidentiality of Partner Shortlists: Shortlists, rate benchmarks, and partner profiles shared by ValueLeap during a selection process are intended solely for the inquiring Tech Buyer’s internal evaluation.

Where liability cannot be excluded by law (and unless otherwise agreed in a signed bilateral contract), the total aggregate liability of Dal Molin Consulting GmbH shall be limited to the fees actually paid by you to Dal Molin Consulting GmbH during the three (3) months preceding the event giving rise to liability (or CHF 100 if no fees were paid).
7.3 Indemnification by User
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Dal Molin Consulting GmbH from any third-party claims arising out of your breach of these Terms or your violation of applicable law or third-party rights.

These Terms and all legal relations between you and Dal Molin Consulting GmbH are governed exclusively by substantive Swiss law, excluding conflict-of-laws rules and the Vienna Sales Convention (CISG). Exclusive place of jurisdiction is the registered seat of Dal Molin Consulting GmbH in Cham (Canton of Zug), Switzerland.
