Terms Of Service

Summary

We will always do our best to fulfill your needs and meet your goals, but sometimes it is best to have a few simple things written down so that we both know what is what, who should do what, and what happens if things go wrong. In this contract, you won’t find complicated legal terms or large passages of unreadable text. We have no desire to trick you into agreeing to something that you might later regret. We do want what’s best for the safety of both parties, now and in the future.

 IN SHORT

You are hiring 5280 Print, to design and develop a website, and to provide hosting and support, for an initial twelve (12) month, annually and automatically renewable, term.

 WHAT DO BOTH PARTIES AGREE TO?

As our customer, you have the power and ability to enter into this contract on behalf of yourself, your company, or your organization. You agree to provide us with everything that we need to complete the project, including text, images, and other information as and when we need it, and in the format that we ask for. You agree to review our work and provide feedback and sign-off approval in a timely manner, too. Deadlines work two ways, and you will also be bound by any dates that we set together.

We have the experience and ability to perform the services you need from us and we will carry them out in a professional and timely manner. Along the way, we will endeavor to meet all the deadlines set, but we can’t be responsible for a missed launch date or a deadline if you have been late in supplying materials or have not approved or signed off on our work on time at any stage. On top of this, we will also maintain the confidentiality of any information that you give us.

 Details Of The Work

We will create designs for the look-and-feel, layout, and functionality of your website, and will implement those designs on a platform suitable for you. 

 HTML/CSS LAYOUT TEMPLATES

If the project includes XHTML or HTML markup and CSS templates, we will develop these using valid HTML5 markup and CSS3 for styling. We will test all our markup and CSS in current versions of all major browsers including those made by Apple, Microsoft, Mozilla, Opera, and Google.

We will not test these templates in old or abandoned browsers, for example, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, 5.5 or 6 for Windows or Mac, previous versions of Apple’s Safari, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera, unless otherwise specified.

 CONTENT

We will do our best to capture your vision and include some helpful headers and a good layout. When we don’t know what to say, we’ll ask. Since you know what you need to say best, we are not ultimately responsible for writing and/or inputting any and all text copy. We will not be responsible for writing more than 100 words of content in total for your website. We will not support adding large amounts of additional content to blogs, portfolios, learning management systems, resources pages, or similar components of your website.

 PHOTOGRAPHS

If needed, you will supply us with photographs in digital format. These photographs may include product photographs, location photographs, personnel photographs, and the like. We can always provide stock images to supplement your original content.

 CHANGES AND REVISIONS

We know from plenty of experience that you need the flexibility to change and update your website whenever you want. Your annual payment for this service includes unlimited design work, within reason, for that annual term. We will work within reason to achieve your desired end result. In an effort to streamline communications, and therefore keep the cost of this service low, any and all update requests, revision requests, or otherwise, general support requests, or any other communications will be available by email only with no exceptions. Support is provided in accordance with our support policy.

 TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Because maintaining a website can be tricky, especially if we want the ability to update it for you, we require that you host your new site and keep your domain registration with us. We will need certain information from you in order to migrate your domain over and launch your site, which you will need to provide to us in a timely manner.

 THINGS WE CAN’T DO

Almost anything is possible with computers and websites, but there are certain things that are outside of the scope of this agreement. We will do our best to accommodate your needs, but it is your responsibility to accurately describe exactly what you need before paying your invoice. We can do most everything, but we can’t do things like custom application development, complicated coding, and the like.

We do not support any third-party plugins you may request. We can add the plugins, and assist with loading them onto a page, but any additional customization, configuration, or implementation is your responsibility only.

 Copyrights

You guarantee to us that any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks, or other artwork that you provide us for inclusion in the website are either owned by you or that you have permission to use them.

Thirty days after we receive your first annual payment and setup fee after the money-back guarantee period has expired,, copyright is automatically assigned as follows:

You own the graphics and other visual elements that we create for you for this project. We will give you a copy of all files and you should store them safely as we are not required to keep them or provide any native source files that we used in making them.

You also own text content, photographs, and other data you provided unless someone else owns them. We own the XHTML markup, CSS, and other code and we license it to you for use on only this project.

We love to show off our work and share what we have learned with other people, so we also reserve the right to display and link to your completed project as part of our portfolio and to write about the project on websites, in magazine and news articles, and in books about web design.

We also reserve the right to place text and a link in your footer that gives credit to us for your website design. These footer messages help us reduce advertising costs and keep our service affordable. As such, if you really want us to remove that, you will be charged a one-time fee of $50, due to us before we remove the text and link.

 More Legal Stuff

We can’t guarantee that the functions contained in any web page templates or in a completed website will always be error-free, and so we can’t be liable to you or any third party for damages, including lost profits, lost savings, or other incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of the operation of, or inability to operate, your website and any other web pages, even if you have advised us of the possibilities of such damages.

In the event of a legal dispute over this agreement, the prevailing party shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs and necessary disbursements and attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing this agreement.
