General Terms and Conditions for the Black Nova Designs Website Design Service
Before we get started, it’s important that we provide you with some information so that you can clearly understand what our services involve, how they will be delivered, what we expect from you and what you can expect from us – and that’s what we will do within this document.
These Terms and Conditions set out the arrangement between us. We have tried to keep legal terms and jargon to a minimum as we have no desire to trick or confuse you, we simply want to ensure we start off on the right foot with total clarity and expectations as we begin our work together.
Introduction
The Terms and Conditions set out below, including any Schedules (“Terms”) together with our privacy notice (which can be found at www.blacknovadesigns.co.uk) confirm the basis on which we, Black Nova Designs (“we”, “us”), agree to deliver website design and development services and support, or any related services (“Services”), to you, the client, as defined in Schedule 1,attached to these Terms (“you”, “your”). You are deemed to accept these Terms when you provide your electronic acceptance.
If you access or use any of our free resources provided directly to you or through our website at www.blacknovadesigns.co.uk (“Website”) or through our knowledge base link, or our YouTube channel or sales pages, which may include audio files, workbooks, PDF’s, initial discussion or discovery calls, podcasts, videos or workshops, these Terms will apply to your use of those, except for the clauses relating to payment.
- The Services
- We agree to deliver the Services which shall include the design, creation and development of a website and which are more particularly set out in the Statement of Work attached at Schedule 1 (“SoW”). We will begin delivery of the Services on the start date confirmed in the SoW, or such other date as we agree in writing, and will continue until the Services have been accepted, as set out in clause 5, below, or until our agreement is terminated in accordance with these Terms, whichever happens first.
- When we deliver the Services, we agree to do so with reasonable care and skill consistent with best practices and standards applicable in our professional marketplace and we agree to comply with all relevant regulations, guidance, standards and codes of conduct that apply or are relevant to the provision of the Services.
- We will deliver the Services in a timely and professional manner in accordance with any reasonable written instructions you may provide, so long as they align with the agreed Services and are in line with any timescales agreed, save that there shall be no right to terminate or seek damages where there is a delay or change to the timescales due to a reason beyond our control.
- If you require further support or additional services over and above the Services as set out in the SoW, or as otherwise set out within these Terms, then such support will require a separate quotation and separate payment terms will apply.
- What we expect from you when we work together
- You agree to co-operate with us and to provide us with all reasonable information and assistance as we require including, but not limited to, clear briefings and instructions, obtaining any relevant consents, licences or authorisations, purchasing any relevant graphic elements and fonts and providing us with all relevant documentation, content, images, graphics, specifications, branding, trade marks, copy, videos (YouTube or Vimeo format only) , digital media, audio, specifications, content, data and any other information (“Materials”) as we may require to enable proper delivery of the Services. We shall not be liable for any delay in the delivery of the Services caused by your failure or delay in providing any information or materials requested.
