Standard Website Design Terms

 

The following terms and conditions apply to all website development / design services provided by Wild Tree Digital to the Client.

1. Acceptance

It is not necessary for any Client to have signed an acceptance of these terms and conditions for them to apply. If a Client accepts a quote then the Client will be deemed to have satisfied themselves as to the terms applying and have accepted these terms and conditions in full.

Please read these terms and conditions carefully. Any purchase or use of our services implies that you have read and accepted our terms and conditions.

2. Charges

Charges for services to be provided by Wild Tree Digital are defined in the project quotation that the Client receives via e-mail and/or in writing. Quotations are valid for a period of 60 days. Wild Tree Digital reserves the right to alter or decline to provide a quotation after expiry of the 60 days.

Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all website design services require an advance payment of a minimum of ten (10) percent or £125, whichever is greater, of the project quotation total before the work is supplied to the Client for review with the remaining ninety (90) percent, or quotation – £125 deposit, of the project quotation total due upon completion of the work.

Payment for services is due by cash, cheque or bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to Lucy Pruvost. Bank details will be made available on invoices.

3. Client Review

Wild Tree Digital will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website during the design phase and once the overall website development is completed. At the completion of the project, such materials will be deemed to be accepted and approved unless the Client notifies Wild Tree Digital otherwise within ten (10) days of the date the materials are made available to the Client.

4. Turnaround Time and Content Control

Wild Tree Digital will install and publicly post or supply the Client’s website by the date specified in the project proposal, or at date agreed with Client upon Wild Tree Digital receiving initial payment, unless a delay is specifically requested by the Client and agreed by Wild Tree Digital.

In return, the Client agrees to delegate a single individual as a primary contact to aid Wild Tree Digital with progressing the commission in a satisfactory and expedient manner.

During the project, Wild Tree Digital will require the Client to provide website content; text, images, videos and sound files etc. to populate the website.

5. Failure to provide required website content:

Wild Tree Digital is a small business, to remain efficient we must ensure that work we have programmed is carried out at the scheduled time. On occasions we may have to reject offers for other work and enquiries to ensure that your work is completed at the time arranged.

This is why we ask that you provide all the required information at least two (2) weeks prior to the agreed completion date. On any occasion where progress cannot be made with your website because we have not been given the required information in the agreed time frame, and we are delayed as result, we reserve the right to impose a surcharge of up to 25%. If your project involves Search Engine Optimisation we need the text content for your site agreed in advance so that the SEO can be planned and completed efficiently.

If you agree to provide us with the required information and subsequently fail to do before the agreed time, two (2) weeks prior to the project completion date we reserve the right to close the project and the balance remaining becomes payable immediately. Simply put, all the above condition says is do not give us the go ahead to start until you are ready to do so.

Wild Tree Digital agree to make periodical updates to any sites commissioned and hosted by Wild Tree Digital.  This is subject to a fair usage clause.  Wild Tree Digital reserve the right to refuse to update websites if such requests exceed 3 hours of development time per site per annum.

NOTE: Text content should be delivered as a Microsoft Word, Google docs, Apple Pages, PDF/JPEG file, email (or similar) document with the pages in the supplied document representing the content of the relevant pages on your website. These pages should have the same titles as the agreed website pages. Contact us if you need clarification on this.

6. Payment

Invoices will be provided by Wild Tree Digital upon completion of the live website. Invoices are normally sent via email; however, the Client may choose to receive hard copy invoices. Invoices are due within thirty (30) days of receipt. Accounts that remain unpaid thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice will be assessed a service charge in the amount of the higher of twenty percent (20%) or £30 per month of the total amount due, whichever is greater.

7. Additional Expenses

Client agrees to reimburse Wild Tree Digital for any additional expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Examples would be purchase of special fonts, stock photography, plugins etc.  This payment will be required prior to the purchase of the additional required materials.

8. Web Browsers

Wild Tree Digital makes every effort to ensure websites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors. Websites are designed to work with the most popular current browsers (e.g. Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, etc.).  The client agrees that Wild Tree Digital cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems.

Wild Tree Digital cannot accept responsibility for web pages which do not display acceptably in obsolete version or new versions of browsers released after the website have been designed and handed over to the Client. As such, Wild Tree Digital 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.

9. Default

Accounts unpaid thirty (30) days after the date of invoice will be considered in default. If the Client in default maintains any information or files on Wild Tree Digital Web space, Wild Tree Digital will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web space. Wild Tree Digital is not responsible for any loss of data incurred due to the removal of the service. Removal of such material does not relieve the Client of the obligation to pay any outstanding charges assessed to the Client’s account. Cheques returned for insufficient funds will be assessed a return charge of £25 and the Client’s account will immediately be considered to be in default until full payment is received. Clients with accounts in default agree to pay Wild Tree Digital reasonable expenses, including legal fees and costs for collection by third-party agencies, incurred by Wild Tree Digital in enforcing these Terms and Conditions.

10. Termination

Termination of services by the Client must be requested in a written notice or email and will be effective on receipt of such notice. Telephone requests for termination of services will not be honoured until and unless confirmed in writing or email. The Client will be invoiced for design work completed to the date of first notice of cancellation for payment in full within thirty (30) days.

11. Indemnity

All Wild Tree Digital services may be used for lawful purposes only. You agree to indemnify and hold Wild Tree Digital harmless from any claims resulting from your use of our service that damages you or any other party.

12. Copyright

The Client retains the copyright to data, files and graphic logos provided by the Client, and grants Wild Tree Digital the rights to publish and use such material. The Client must obtain permission and rights to use any information or files that are copyrighted by a third party. The Client is further responsible for granting Wild Tree Digital permission and rights for use of the same and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Wild Tree Digital from any and all claims resulting from the Client’s negligence or inability to obtain proper copyright permissions. A contract for website design and/or placement shall be regarded as a guarantee by the Client to Wild Tree Digital that all such permissions and authorities have been obtained. Evidence of permissions and authorities may be requested.

13. Standard Media Delivery

Unless otherwise specified in the project quotation, this agreement assumes that any text will be provided by the Client in electronic format (text files delivered on USB drive or via e-mail or FTP) and that all photographs and other graphics will be provided in .gif, .jpeg, .png or .tiff format. Although every reasonable attempt shall be made by Wild Tree Digital to return to the Client any images or printed material provided for use in creation of the Client’s website, such return cannot be guaranteed.

14. Design Credit

A link to Wild Tree Digital will appear in either small type or by a small graphic at the bottom of the Client’s website. If a graphic is used, it will be designed to fit in with the overall site design. If a client requests that the design credit be removed, a nominal fee of 20% of the total development charges will be applied. When total development charges are less than £500, a fixed fee of £100 will be applied. The Client also agrees that the website developed for the Client may be presented in Wild Tree Digital’s website portfolio.

15. Access Requirements

If the Client’s website is to be installed on a third-party server, Wild Tree Digital must be granted temporary read/write access to the Client’s storage directories which must be accessible via FTP. Depending on the specific nature of the project, other resources might also need to be configured on the server.

16. Post-Placement Alterations

Wild Tree Digital cannot accept responsibility for any alterations caused by a third party occurring to the Client’s pages once installed. Such alterations include, but are not limited to additions, modifications or deletions.

17. Domain Names

The loss, cancellation or otherwise of the domain brought about by non or late payment by the client is not the responsibility of Wild Tree Digital. The Client should keep a record of the due dates for payment to ensure that payment is received in good time.

18. General

These Terms and Conditions supersede all previous representations, understandings or agreements. The Client’s acceptance via email, text  or payment of an advance fee constitutes agreement to and acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.
