Terms

STUDIOSIGHT

Design/Service Terms of Service (Simple/Single Page Websites)

We strive to provide you with an exceptional client experience. If you wish to discontinue our month-to-month service agreement, you may cancel at any time. Our client agreements for editing, support, hosting, and SEO are structured on a month-to-month basis and do not require a long-term commitment.

We conduct regular backups of your website, and you can create a copy of your website content at any time using web archive. Please note that websites cannot be transferred to another hosting provider, as they are built on our proprietary CMS.

If you choose to cancel your service before completing 12 monthly payments, we will release domain names for a fee of $25. If you cancel after making 12 monthly payments, we will release your domain names at no cost, and you will have no further obligations.

Design/Service Terms of Service (Custom Websites)

STUDIOSIGHT will begin work on your project upon receipt of a down payment. Unless specified otherwise in writing, you will be billed every 30 days following the initial down payment. All custom projects are contracted for 12 months from the date of the initial down payment, unless the remaining balance is paid in full. Websites will be made live once the project is completed. Hosting and domain registration fees, if applicable, must be paid monthly.

Additional services will incur extra charges, either on a fee-for-service basis or at an hourly rate. If you require additional services, the corresponding fees will be added to your invoice.

Logos, images, and videos may be uploaded via platforms like Dropbox or Google Drive for inclusion in your project. Providing us with ample information and resources will help expedite the completion date. Please note that we do not provide logos, images, or videos.

If you fail to make timely payments, a late fee of $50 will be applied to your account, and the project will be automatically placed on hold or canceled. STUDIOSIGHT reserves the right to determine when to resume work on the project once the late payment is processed.

Delays in project completion may arise due to:

Delays in payments.
Requests for further changes in design, structure, or content.
Purchase of additional services related to the project.
Delays in receiving materials from you.
Time frame estimates are approximate and may change at STUDIOSIGHT’s discretion. STUDIOSIGHT can also choose to place a project on hold at any time.

We guarantee 100% satisfaction with our services. We will not cease work until you are fully satisfied with the solution provided. However, we will not be held responsible for unreasonable expectations or requests that fall outside the scope of our service offerings. It is at STUDIOSIGHT’s discretion to determine what constitutes a reasonable request or expectation. If additional services are deemed necessary for full satisfaction, it is not our responsibility to fulfill that expectation.

Services or elements of a project that have been approved by you are considered satisfactory. Any further work on these approved services may be discussed in our “monthly update session.”

The term “monthly update session” refers to approximately 2 hours of work on an existing website. STUDIOSIGHT reserves the right to determine if a request represents 2 hours of work.

All payments are final. STUDIOSIGHT does not offer refunds.

Parties
You: You have the authority to enter into this contract on behalf of yourself, your company, or your organization. You will provide us with the necessary assets and information to complete the project promptly. You are responsible for reviewing our work and providing feedback.

Changes and Revisions
The pricing stated at the beginning of this contract is based on the outlined scope of work. We are open to flexibility; if you wish to modify the scope or add new elements, we will provide a separate estimate for the additional work.

Technical Support
As a website hosting company, we offer support for website hosting, email, and related services. If you already have professional hosting managed in-house, that is acceptable. If not, we can set up an account for you. Our goal is to provide top-tier technology solutions, with hosting included in your monthly maintenance fee.

Legal Considerations
We will execute our work in accordance with standard industry practices and maintain the expected quality from qualified personnel with relevant experience. However, we cannot guarantee that our work will be error-free. Therefore, we cannot be held liable to you or any third party for damages, including lost profits, savings, or any incidental, consequential, or special damages, even if you have advised us of such potential issues.

Your liability to us will be limited to the fees payable under this contract, and you will not be liable for any damages as mentioned above, even if we have advised you of them. Should any provision of this contract be deemed unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision will be considered severable, and it will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions.

Intellectual Property Rights
“Intellectual property rights” refer to all patents, rights to inventions, copyrights (including software rights), trademarks, service marks, trade names, internet domain names, rights to goodwill, rights in designs, database rights, rights in confidential information, and any other intellectual property rights, whether registered or unregistered.

You guarantee that all text, images, or artwork you provide are either owned by you or that you have permission to use them. By providing us with these materials, you agree to indemnify us against any third-party claims regarding the use of their intellectual property.

We guarantee that all elements of the work we deliver are either owned by us or for which we have obtained permission to use. By providing you with text, images, or other artwork, we agree to indemnify you against any third-party claims concerning the use of their intellectual property.

We will retain ownership of any intellectual property rights developed prior to or independently from this project that you have not paid for. We will own the unique combination of these elements that constitutes the complete design and will license its use to you exclusively and in perpetuity for this project only, unless otherwise agreed.

Website Ownership
Upon fulfillment of the contract terms, you will own the rights to the text and images you provided while we developed your website. You will also own any visual designs and text we created during the agreed terms. We have purchased images under a license for use in building websites, but this license does not transfer to you for reuse outside the scope of the website we create for you.

Domain Ownership
STUDIOSIGHT leases your domain name or URL from common registrars. Upon completion of your agreed terms with us, you have the right to transfer your domain if desired. However, please note that some websites may utilize plugins, scripts, or modules licensed to us and provided to you, which are not transferable should you move your site to another hosting provider. The absence of these components could affect website functionality. You may also keep your domain on our servers for as little as $17.49 per year without any support or maintenance, though the domain price is subject to change based on registrar market rates.

Displaying Our Work
We take pride in showcasing our work and reserve the right to display all aspects of our creative process, including sketches, work-in-progress designs, and completed projects in our portfolio, on websites, and in publications, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Payment Schedule
We appreciate your understanding of the importance of timely payment. You agree to adhere to the agreed payment schedule, with invoices due within 7 days of receipt. A surcharge of 15% may be applied to any late invoices. All proposals are quoted in USD, and payments will be processed at the conversion rate applicable at the time of transfer.

You are responsible for any charges associated with international fund transfers, with our electronic invoice containing the necessary bank account details.

Following the initial contract period, the contract will continue on a month-to-month basis.

Cancellation
If you decide to cancel the contract before the specified term, all remaining payments will be due within 30 days for the remainder of the contract unless otherwise agreed in writing. If you are dissatisfied with our services, we will make every effort to resolve the issue.

Once the contract terms are fulfilled, this agreement remains in effect until either party cancels it. You may cancel this contract at any time by providing thirty (30) days written notice, provided all payments are current. In the event of cancellation, you acknowledge that no refunds will be provided for previously paid amounts. You also authorize us to charge your credit card or other payment method for any outstanding payments.

We reserve the right to cancel this contract at any time with thirty (30) days written notice. In such cases, we will send a cancellation notice electronically or in writing to the address we have on record.
