2. ACCEPTANCE OF WORK
Quotations are valid for 15 working days from date of issue. When the Client places an order to purchase a website or website updates from Developer, the order represents an offer to Developer to purchase the website or website updates which is accepted by Developer only when an invoice is sent to the Client. No contract for the supply of services exists between Client and Developer until Developer sends an invoice to the Client for payment. The invoice equals acceptance by Developer (or third party supplier) of Clients offer to purchase services from Developer and this acceptance of work is a valid contract between Client and Developer regardless of whether Client receives the invoice. Any other services on the order which have not been included in the invoice do not form part of the contract. The Client agrees to check the details of the invoice are correct and should print and keep a copy for their records. Developer reserves the right to withdraw from contract at any time prior to acceptance.

Copyright of the completed web designs, images, pages, code and source files created by Developer for the project shall be with the Client upon final payment only by prior written agreement. Without agreement, ownership of designs and all code is with the Developer. These terms of use grant a non-exclusive limited license so that the Client can use the design on one website on one domain name only. The Client is not permitted to use a design for more than one website without prior written agreement between the Client and the Developer. Client agrees that resale or distribution of the completed files in full or in part is forbidden unless prior written agreement is made between the Client and the Developer. Client hereby agrees that all media and content made available to Developer for use in the project are either owned by the Client or used with full permission of the original authors. The Client agrees to hold harmless, protect and defend Developer from any claim or suit that may arise as a result of using the supplied media and content. Client agrees that Developer may include development credits and links within any code Developer designs, builds or amends.

Any support or payment due relating to the domain name, hosting and email services are to be made between the Client and the third party service. Client agrees to pass on FTP details and any other access details relating to their domain name and hosting account which the Developer requires to upload the website if required as part of a project. Developer reserves the right without notice to refuse work with domain names or hosting and email services without reason for such rejection or refusal.
6. PROJECTS
The Customer agrees to provide the Company with all the necessary information they require to progress the project in a reasonable timescale. Delays of more than 15 working days by the Customer to provide the necessary information will constitute a breach of contract. The Company reserves the right in such circumstances to terminate the contract and recover the total cost of the project.
All alterations for websites projects are to be requested in writing either by email or postal mail by the Client. After the specified allowed hours of alterations have been completed, Developer reserves the right to advise the Client as such and send a separate quotation to the Client and to request payment for any further alterations. Developer reserves the right to request payment be received for further alterations before continuing work. Upon completion of an agreed design the Client is asked to confirm in writing by email or postal mail that the design is signed off as complete and agree that any further design alterations are chargeable. Client agrees to provide any needed information and content required by Developer in good time to enable Developer to complete a design or website work as part of an agreed project. Client agrees that a HTML page built from a graphic design may not exactly match the original design because of the difference between the display in design software and the rendering of HTML code by internet browser software. Developer agrees to try and match the design as closely as is possible when building the code. Developer endeavours to create pages that are search engine friendly, however, Developer gives no guarantee that the site will become listed with search engines or of certain search results. In no event shall Developer be held liable for any changes in search engine rankings as a result of using Developers code. If an error or issue with the design or code arises during the project which does not allow the design or code to match the original specification, then Client agrees that Developer can apply a nearest available alternative solution. After site completion, a Client or a third party of their choosing may wish to edit their website code themselves to make updates. However, the Client agrees that in so doing they assume full responsibility for any issues which occur as a result of changing the code themselves. If Client or a third party of their choosing edits the website code and this results in functionality errors or the page displaying incorrectly, then Developer reserves the right to quote for work to repair the website. Developer reserves the right to assign subcontractors in whole or as part of a project if needed. Client agrees that it is their responsibility to have regular backups of their website and software made by themselves or third party services in case of a software or hardware failure.
All communications between Developer and Client shall be by telephone, email or postal mail, except where agreed at Developer’s discretion.
7. WEB BROWSERS
Developer shall make every effort to ensure sites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors. Sites are designed to work with the main browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox latest releases. Client agrees that Developer cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems. Clients agree that after handover of files any updated software versions of the main browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, domain name setup changes or hosting setup changes thereafter may affect the functionality and display of their website. As such, Developer reserves the right to quote for any work involved in changing the website design or website code for it to work with updated browser software, domain name or hosting changes.
8. PAYMENT TERMS
All prices quoted are exclusive of VAT. All Customers will be required to pay a 30% non-refundable deposit of the project cost before any work can begin and all subsequent balances are due towards the end of the project and before handover of any finished files. All invoices must be paid in full within 7 days of the invoice date, except for the final invoice which will need to be settled immediately prior to handover of code and upload of site. The Developer will carry out work only where an invoice has been paid by the Client for the work, unless otherwise agreed at Developers discretion. Additional work requested by the Client which is not specified in the agreed quotation is subject to a separate quotation and Developer reserves the right whether to quote or accept additional work. If additional work is accepted by Developer may affect timescale and overall delivery time of the project. Once an invoice is sent to the Client it must either be paid by bank transfer, cheque made payable to Freestone Creative and sent with proof of posting to the Developer’s main postal address.
Developer reserves the right to decline further work on a project if there are invoices outstanding with the Client. Client may request that the Developer cancel a project in writing by email or postal mail to Developer and the project is cancelled only if Developer confirms work has not been started on the project. If Developer has begun or completed the work and the Client no longer requires the files but have agreed to the work, they are still obliged to pay Developer for the work that has been carried out. All invoices are submitted by email except where required otherwise by regulations or agreed at Developer’s discretion. Developer reserves the right to remove its work for Client from the Internet if payments are not received.
9. LIABILITY & WARRANTY DISCLAIMER
Developer provides their website and the contents thereof on an “as is” basis and makes no warranties with regard to the site and its contents, or fitness of services offered for a particular purpose. Developer cannot guarantee the functionality or operations of their website or that it will be uninterrupted or error free, nor does it warrant that the contents are current, accurate or complete. Developer endeavours to provide a website within given delivery timescales to the best of its ability. However, the Client agrees that Developer is not liable for any claims, losses, costs incurred or compensation due to any failure to carry out services within a given delivery timescale. The Client agrees Developer is not liable for absence of service as a result of illness or holiday.
The Client agrees Developer is not liable for any failure to carry out services for reasons beyond its control including but not limited to acts of God, telecommunication problems, software failure, hardware failure, third party interference, Government, emergency on major scale or any social disturbance of extreme nature such as industrial strike, riot, terrorism and war or any act or omission of any third party services. Developer is not liable for any consequences or financial losses such as, but not limited to, loss of business, profit, revenue, contract, data or potential savings, relating to services provided. On handover of files from Developer to Client, the Client shall assume entire responsibility in ensuring that all files are functioning correctly before use. Whilst every effort is made to make sure files are error free, Developer cannot guarantee that the display or functionality of the web design or the website will be uninterrupted or error free. If after handover of files errors are found in code the Developer has created and the main browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, domain name setup and hosting setup are the same as when work began, then Developer can correct these errors for the Client at its own discretion. If after handover of files errors are found in code the Developer has created and the main browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox have released an updated software version, or the domain name setup or hosting setup has been changed, Developer can correct errors for the Client free of charge and reserves the right to quote separately for any additional work needed as a result of changes to the browser software, domain name setup or hosting setup.
Should Client goes into compulsory or involuntary liquidation or cannot pay its debts in the normal course of business, Developer reserves the right to cancel forthwith any projects and invoice Client for any work completed. Developer shall have no liability to the Client or any third parties for any damages, including but not limited to, claims, losses, lost profits, lost savings, or other incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of the operation of or inability to operate these web pages or website, even if Developer has been advised of the possibility of such damages. There are sometimes laws and taxes which affect Internet ecommerce. Client agrees that it is their responsibility to comply with such laws and will hold harmless, protect, and defend Developer and its subcontractors from any claim, suit, penalty, tax, or tariff arising from the Client’s exercise of Internet ecommerce.
Developer may from time to time recommend to the Client that updates are needed to their site to comply with, including but not limited to, new legislations, software releases and web standards. Developer reserves the right to quote for any updates as separate work. Client agrees Developer is not liable for any failure to inform or implement these updates to their site. Client agrees that it shall defend, indemnify, save and hold Developer harmless from any and all demands, liabilities, costs, losses and claims arising from omission to inform or implement these updates.
A 12 month security update contract is included within the total cost agreed by the client. The developer will provide security updates to the code within your site for a period of 12 months starting from the first day the site is made ‘live’. After 12 months has elapsed, the developer will be under no obligation to apply security updates to your website or the code contained within. It is the responsibility of the client to either renew the security update contract, or not renew the contract and agree that the developer has no liability should the website or code become compromised. If a security update contract is not in place and the website or code does become compromised, any work done by the developer to secure and restore the website or code will need to be agreed by the client and will be chargeable in accordance with our current rates. In cases of extreme security breaches it may be necessary to completely disable the website or code belonging to the client to protect the server. In these extreme circumstances if a security breach is discovered, or if the site or code become compromised and in the opinion of the developer poses a risk to the whole server and a security update contract is not in place, the client accepts that further charges will apply to make the site and code secure before restoration can take place.
