Let’s dive in!

#3 Confidentiality
This clause states that all the confidential information in the contract must be kept confidential unless it’s required by the law to be disclosed. It also says that the confidential information in the contract, for any purpose beyond the scope of the agreement, is expressly forbidden without the prior consent of the parties.
#4 Intellectual property

This means that your Indian web designer will refrain from using such intellectual property upon the termination of this Agreement.
#5 Amendments

However, at the same time, the developer does not represent or warrant that such services provided in this agreement will create additional sales, exposure, brand recognition, profits, or other benefits.
