Web Design

I’m not really a designer - more of a web developer - so this might be a dumb question, but here goes.

I have the following logo that I want to build a material design color palette around:

I read that material design has primary/secondary with light and dark variants. Would it make sense to take hues and then use the more / less saturated variants, directly as they are in the logo? For example, the two blues and then maybe the pink and purple? Or would it be better to not do that and choose colors that aren’t even in the logo?

How would you go about choosing a color scheme for the rest of this landing page? (I don’t really even have much of a landing page to share, but I started thinking about this and now I think I’m over-thinking it) Thoughts?
