Terms of service
Last updated 5 October 2026
Who this is between
ORYS is provided by Samuga Creative Pvt Ltd, Malé, Maldives. When somebody creates an organisation on ORYS, the agreement is between us and that organisation - not with the individual who happened to sign up.
What you are agreeing to do
Use ORYS for your own organisation’s staff. Keep your password to yourself, and tell us if you think somebody else has it. Do not try to reach another organisation’s records. Make sure the people whose records you put in here know that you hold them.
The free period, and paying
The first three months are free, with no card. Packages start at MVR 2,800 a month, based on staff size (see pricing); a smaller organisation can ask us for a tailored plan below that. We give at least 60 days’ notice before any price change. When the free months end, everything keeps working for 7 more days while you choose a package. After that ORYS becomes read-only: HR can still see everything and download the backup, and staff can still see their payslips, letters and leave - but nothing new can be added, no payroll can be run and nothing can be imported until a package is chosen. Your records are never deleted because a trial ended. The same applies when a paid month runs out and no payment has been confirmed: {grace_days} days with everything working, then read-only until the payment is confirmed.
Your records are yours
Everything you put into ORYS belongs to you. HR can download it all at any time, without asking us: Admin -> Backup -> "Download everything" gives one ZIP with every record (an Excel file with a sheet for each kind of record) and every uploaded file and letter (photos, scanned documents, receipts, expat papers, CVs, and each letter as a PDF). If you stop using ORYS, take your copy first; we will give you a reasonable period to do it.
What we do not do
We do not sell your data, share it with anybody else, or use it to train anything. Each organisation is sealed off from every other inside the database itself, not by a promise. As the company that runs ORYS we could technically reach your records (for example to restore a backup), but we never look at them unless you ask us to help with something specific. Our support screens show that your organisation exists and how many staff you have - not their names, not their salaries.
Getting it right is still your job
ORYS calculates what you tell it to calculate. The pension percentages, overtime rates, minimum wage and leave entitlements are all yours to set, and the defaults we ship are common Maldivian figures rather than legal advice. Check them against the Employment Act and your own rules. We are not responsible for a payroll that was wrong because the settings were wrong.
When things break
We will keep ORYS running and fix what breaks as quickly as we can, but we do not promise it will never be unavailable. Take your backups. If ORYS causes you a loss, what we owe you is limited to what you have paid us in the previous three months.
Stopping
You can stop using ORYS whenever you like, and we will not hold your records hostage. We can close an organisation that is using ORYS for something it should not be, or that has not paid after we have asked - we will tell you first and give you time to take your data.
Changes to these terms
If we change anything here that matters, we will tell you inside ORYS before it takes effect. Maldivian law applies.
