Terms and Conditions

Confidential

The information shared by the client will be kept confidential according to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and will only be used by Cas Martens to provide the best service and to complete the design as best as possible. This information will not be shared with any third party unless the client wants it or gives permission for it.

Payment

By signing the agreement you agree to the terms of payment. Failure to fulfill the agreements made will result in termination of the agreement, with no refund of amounts previously received.

With every purchase for a new website, the client must make a down payment. How much this is depends on the size of the project and the amount is determined together with the client. If nothing has yet been paid by the client, but Cas Martens has already performed work, the client must reimburse these costs.

If an assignment consists of several phases and the client is not yet able to provide all information but Cas Martens has already performed work, Cas Martens is entitled to charge the client for the hours they have incurred.

Payment term

After receiving the invoice, it must be paid within 14 days of the invoice date. If the invoice has not been paid after these 14 days, the client will receive a payment reminder in which he is summoned to pay the invoice amount within 14 days. If the amount is still not paid after this reminder, the claim will be handed over.

The website will not go live until the amount due is paid.

Concept

Rough sketches may not be shared with third parties or shared online in any form (posts, groups, forums, etc.). If the client wishes to share the sketch with another party, written permission must be obtained.

Revisions

Every website is custom-made, which means that the design is only finished when the client is satisfied. The design of the website falls under working hours and Cas Martens may charge the client.

Lead time

The lead time depends on the size of the project, so an hourly estimate will be agreed with the client for each project. This estimate is not binding for the total number of hours worked. Should more hours be worked than the hourly estimate, Cas Martens must let you know (in time) and will have to discuss with the client whether there is room for more budget.

Cas Martens is not responsible for long-term projects or missed deadlines due to poor communication by the client.

Delivered files

The client represents and warrants that the text, graphics, photographs, and/or other materials provided by the client for the project are owned or licensed by the client. The client is solely responsible for the material and the validity of copyrights, trademarks, and property to which the client claims to have rights hereunder. The client agrees to indemnify and hold the designer and their affiliates harmless from and against any claim of infringement, or any trademark, copyright or trade secret, or negligence arising from any text, graphics, photographs, or other material provided by the client.

Intellectual property

Cas Martens retains full rights to all designs, sketches, scripts, and resources used to create the website. These may not be copied by anyone. Also, no works may be based on the original design.

Cas Martens may use the works in his portfolio, for marketing and promotion.
The client understands that the design may not be modified by anyone except Cas Martens.

Liability

Cas Martens kan op geen enkel moment financieel of juridisch verantwoordelijk worden gehouden voor eventuele problemen, kosten, vergoedingen of uitgaven die door de opdrachtgever worden gemaakt als gevolg van het gebruik van het ontwerp van Cas Martens.

Agreement

This Agreement is the entire agreement of all parties. This Agreement is not subject to any additional promises or conditions, written or oral, not contained herein. Unless a written signed agreement has been given.

Upon putting the web application online, this agreement shall be deemed fulfilled.
