The following TERMS OF SERVICE are for Fresh Blog Designs clients. These terms are subject to change without warning and should be read prior to each order you place with us. Payment to Fresh Blog Designs confirms that you have, in fact, accepted these terms.
We cannot be held responsible for anything you feel you did not know by not reading said terms. If you have any questions and/or comments about our TERMS OF SERVICE please contact us directly. Thank you.
Fresh Blog Designs reserves the right to refuse, suspend or terminate services at our discretion.
By ordering services through Fresh Blog Designs you are agreeing to the following:
- Half of the total cost is due prior to the start of any work.
- The price quote you receive is based on the scale, scope and complexity of your project and the estimate of the time it will take us to complete it. We develop this estimate based on the information we collect from you about your project. Note that this is an initial price quote. If after payment is made and work is started you decide to change the scope of your project, add any extra services or you neglected to fully express or disclose your needs, you will be billed (usually upon project completion) for any extra time incurred over and above the initial estimate.
- All pricing, including Specials, is subject to change without prior notification. All prices are US dollars.
- Fresh Blog Designs does not issue refunds after the final mock up has been approved. There are no exceptions. If, for some reason, you are not satisfied with your design, please consult with Fresh Blog Designs regarding your options. If the project is terminated by either party before or during mock up creation 25-50% of the full payment may be refunded based upon the amount of work completed.
- When ordering please be advised that though we work with most blogging platforms and install most scripts and plugins not all scripts and plug-ins are available on each platform.
- You are responsible for obtaining proper licensing for all blog software used. Fresh Blog Designs does not provide support for use of blog software. It is the sole responsibility of the client to obtain support from the appropriate vendor.
- All CMS plugins are released under their own licenses and are owned by their respective developers. Fresh Blog Designs provides an installation service only.
- Fresh Blog Designs is not responsible for the images placed on your new design. If you provide your designer with an image please let us know the source so that proper credit may be given. If you direct Fresh Blog Designs to find an image for you, we will get your image from one of a number of royalty-free stock photography/illustration websites. Custom illustration may be ordered though additional fees will apply. All images are provided and/or approved by you, the client and therefore all risk of liability is assumed by you.
- Design includes up to two mock-ups and up to 4 minor revisions to the final mock-up. It is integral that you detail all concerns/changes to the design at this stage as once the final mock-up is approved and installed no more major changes will be made. Any major changes you feel should be made after this stage will be billed accordingly and will be made pending the Fresh Blog Designs schedule.
- Fresh Blog Designs reserves the right to state when a client has exhausted our services at any time.
- Placement of a Fresh Blog Designs button or text link is required for the duration of your use of the design. Removal of this button or link is a violation of your agreement with us.
- Fresh Blog Designs does not save/backup your existing template. If you would like to keep your prior template, we suggest saving it to your computer files BEFORE hiring Fresh Blog Designs. We also do not save/backup the new design. We suggest that you save your new template to your computer files once the design is complete. This is very important and will save you money should anything happen to your design in the future. Any work done to an already completed design is done at an additional cost.
- Once your design is completely installed and any minor changes have been made you assume all responsibility to your site. If anything needs to be changed, deleted, moved, etc. you will be advised by Fresh Blog Designs to put in a new work order. You will then be placed back on the schedule and your request will be completed in the order it was received.
- All designs by Fresh Blog Designs are exclusively created for use by the clients who commissioned them and may not be used by anyone else. Designs created by Fresh Blog Designs may only be used for their original purpose. This means that you are NOT allowed to republish or sell your design to anyone. The rights to any photos, graphics and source code are not transferred to the client; each element remains the property of its respective owners. Fresh Blog Designs also retains the right to display graphics and other web design elements from any design as examples of our work anywhere on the internet or as hard copies.
