General Terms and Conditions – Web Design

KTS provides web design services and in some cases, outsourced hosting services from our preferred supplier to a diverse range of clients. KTS makes efforts with all their clients to determine their requirements before accepting payment. The vast majority of our clients are happy with our services, and the conditions enclosed herewith are not brought into play during the design process. However, in a small percentage of cases, client’s expectations are unrealistic, and we must put a limit on how much work we will do for a fixed price package or quote. Please ensure you fully understand what you will be receiving before you sign your NDA and make payment. Once you have signed your NDA form and made full payment, it is understood that you are accepting the terms and conditions for KTS.

Please note, KTS does not offer refunds after the work has been completed unless it is required to do so by Queensland law.

Administrative Access to Your Website

KTS will provide administrative access to your website, in order for you to be able to edit the content of your website and generally maintain it during the website build. We do not give system level access, nor access to cPanel. This is to reduce the chance of viruses and illegal scripts..

Changes at a system level requires great expertise, and therefore is not suitable for general website editing during the website build.

Ownership

Upon completion of a website build and payment of the web design and development fees, the client is the owner of the website, unless they have an ongoing arrangement with our preferred supplier. The client does not have the right to resell the design or development to other companies.

KTS is not responsible for websites that are not on our servers. The most common problem faced with our websites is poor quality (cheap) web hosting. For this reason we encourage our clients to use our preferred supplier’s web hosting. We recommend that any other hosting service you may wish to use is fitted with cPanel.

Payments and Non-payments.

We will not start a project until the full amount has been paid.

We require all final payments to be made before giving editing access.

Additional requests for work must be paid for before they are carried out.

In cases where we need to pay for external products or services, such as security certificates, plug-ins, domain names, etc., these must be paid for beforehand.

Cancelation

The client agrees to pay the full amount of the project, including any requested additional work, regardless of whether the project is completed or not. Projects may be canceled, but the client must pay for work done up to that time. KTS will be fair with cancelations, as they are often due to circumstances beyond the client’s control. KTS reserves the right to recover payments through legal action if the client refuses to pay for work completed.

Refunds

All payments are non-refundable upon receipt. No exceptions will be made. We will not negotiate charge backs with any person or company. Our Refund policies are clearly stated, and all clients are asked to read and agree to our terms of service prior to the start of any project.

Revisions

A revision is a minor change request, such as changing a font, pattern, or colors.

A major change such as requesting a different layout than the one you originally selected, will be charged at our standard hourly rate.

Unless you have entered into an agreement where the work is outsourced to our preferred supplier, typically, up to 3 rounds of revisions are included free with every design and depending on the website package chosen. (We value our customer relationship, and this value is not a hard and fast rule, but it’s at our discretion.)

For a basic package, once the graphics design of a website has been approved, then no further changes can be made for free.

Once a design has been approved and installed on the client’s site, the design is considered approved and completed. Any additional design changes requested after installation will incur a fee of our standard hourly rate. We welcome ongoing requests for improvements.

Website editing

Our websites are relatively easy to edit, and it therefore the client’s responsibility to edit the content in their website. KTS will include the original content you provide in the website, but editing is the client’s responsibility.

Communications

Once we received payment and the design of your website has commenced, you must be available via the internet, to answer all questions and complete tasks throughout the design process. Communication is via phone, postal mail or in person. All emails must be directed through to tan@tanjaturner.com

Sometimes our emails get blocked, either by your computer’s email program, your computer’s security, or by email providers such as Yahoo and Hotmail, etc. This happens because our emails often contain many links, and that can look suspicious to your computer programs or to your email provider. We can’t know if this happens, and we cannot take responsibility for the loss of communications that happens as a result.

Turnaround Time and Content Control

KTS generally produces websites within the agreed time, but cannot guarantee the turnaround time unless it was specifically agreed to before payment was received. The advertised time is the time when the first draft is shown to the client. Requests for revisions will stretch out a project.

Server Blocking

During the website build (and if you have the hosting package), our preferred supplier’s servers have many security programs installed, so as to protect it from hackers. The most common client problem we experience is when they can no longer access their email account or website. This is usually because the wrong password has been used.

If you cannot gain access to your site after the build has been completed and your username and password have been distributed to you and found to be in working order at the time of distribution, KTS will not be held responsible nor liable for any damages or loss due to you being unable to access your site for any reason.

We cannot be held responsible for websites being blocked or access to the client denied. Please note that there are large hacking syndicates that constantly attack servers, looking for vulnerabilities, or trying to hack passwords. You are instructed: DON’T use weak passwords.

Copyrights and Trademarks

The client is responsible for obtaining copyrights and permission for any photos or design elements. KTS is not liable or responsible for those graphics or photos.

Browsers

Any website we create should be able to be viewed in current versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari. We cannot guarantee error-free viewing in any browser that includes third-party plug-ins.

Graphics

Custom graphics design is not part of any design package unless previously agreed to and can be quoted on separately if required. Custom graphics design typically refers to the use of any graphics editing software such as Adobe Photoshop and Abobe Illustrator for either design or image manipulation.

Programming

The work will not include the writing of custom software in languages such as PHP, Javascript, Jquery, etc. – it will be quoted on separately if required.

Acceptable Work and Rework

KTS reserves the right to determine what is an acceptable and reasonable amount of work and rework, for any of our website package offers. Our offer is not for unlimited or endless web design unless you have purchased the outsourced package from our preferred supplier. The scope of the work, including the website’s appearance, functions and features, should be made clear by the client before payment is made.

Quotes and Agreements

Quotes are based on our interpretation of the specification. If functions or styles need to be exactly followed, then they should be noted individually, and individually agreed to be us in our correspondence. Whatever is available with the standard modules of the web platform we are using, will be considered to meet the clients specification. A blanket agreement from us to build a website or part of a website in a particular way, does not mean that every detail of the specification will be followed exactly. Agreement to follow a client’s graphical design, is not and agreement to provide the exact functions that are on the design. We reserve the right to not of do agreed work if the cost of it is substantially greater than the quoted amount. It’s the client’s responsibility to spell it out in detail if something in particular is vital.

Browser Compatibility

There are many Internet browsers on different operating systems, running various smart phones, tablets and desktops. We cannot guarantee that your website will look identical on all of them.

Responsive Themes for Smart-phones and Mobile Devices

This feature is where the page contents will expand and shrink to fit the width of the screen. In some cases, sidebar regions will move down the bottom of the page, making more room for content display in a narrow screen. Some designs come with this feature built in, but others are not. If this is a requirement, KTS must be informed before payment for the web design is made. Custom design of responsive themes may incur extra charges because the testing processes on a large variety of products is time consuming. No guarantee can be given that the responsive theme will work correctly on all devices, as not all manufactures comply with the same Internet protocols.

General – Web Hosting

The conditions below may not apply to all clients. It will apply to those who have engaged the outsourced services of our preferred supplier through KTS for web design, build and/or hosting.

Web Hosting

The following may not apply if special arrangements in writing have been made with our clients. We do not provide client access to the hosting provider in order to reduce the risk of viruses and illegal scripts finding their way onto our servers. This is for the common good of all of our clients.

Some websites commissioned by KTS and designed and developed by our preferred supplier are hosted with them on high quality leased servers. KTS cannot be held responsible for server problems as they are out of our control.
