Terms & Conditions

By purchasing services from Highline Web Design you as the client are agreeing to the following terms and conditions:

PAYMENTS:

For projects under $1500.00, Highline Web Design requires 100% of total payment up front before starting on the project. Projects $1500 and above are offered payment plans. All amounts must be in US Dollars (US$) and made through credit card (Visa, MasterCard or American Express) or PayPal.

CUSTOM DESIGN:

Highline Web Design and the client must work together to complete the web design project in a timely manner. We agree to work expeditiously to complete the web design project no later than 45 days after client has submitted all necessary materials. If the client does not supply Highline Web Design with complete text and graphic content for this web design project within 20 days of the date agreement was made, either signed or verbally, the contract is void and any deposits are forfeited. By submitting your deposit to Highline Web Design you agree to the terms and conditions listed on our website.

PROJECT DELAY:

If circumstances change and you need to put your project on hold, you will be locked in to your quoted price for a period of 30 days from your estimated start date. After 30 days, your project will need to be reassessed at current rates. If you decide not to proceed, all deposits are forfeited and any graphics, layouts or mock-ups will remain the property of Highline Web Design.

DESIGN PROCESS:

Once your deposit is made, you will be presented with a series of designs to choose from. From those concepts Highline Web Design will work with your guidance to modify components from each concept into one final approved layout. Once a design is approved for your website layout, you are bound to this design. There is no changing once all of the coding has begun, links placed etc. If the client decides at any point they want a new layout, payment in full is required, and the original price estimate is void. An evaluation of current pricing will be done for the new layout.

COMMUNICATION & SUPPORT:

Once payment has been received and the design of your website has commenced, you must be available via e-mail, able to answer all questions and complete tasks daily throughout the design process. Almost all communication is via e-mail and not by phone, fax, postal mail or in person. If after 14 days we are unable to reach you via email the contract will become void and all payment non-refundable.

AUTHORIZATION:

As the client, you authorize Highline Web Design to install any scripts, software or programs relevant to the web design project and to access your website account through your hosting service panel and FTP. You will provide Highline Web Design with the login information and passwords necessary to access your website during the installation process of your template.

CREDIT & USAGE:

All graphics, illustrations, and layouts are intended to be kept whole as given to you. All work done by Highline Web Design may not be used by anyone else but the specified client on the domain for which it was originally designed. All preliminary mockups to include graphics, layouts, etc., which are not selected by the client remain the full property of Highline Web Design and may be used in future projects for other clients.

Highline Web Design retains all rights to display artwork in portfolios, and advertising materials. E-mail testimonials from clients may be posted on Our Web Design Network as well. All website designs by Highline Web Design require a text link back to Highline Web Design unless other arrangements have been made.
