Terms & Conditions 

The following terms and conditions apply to all website development / design services provided by 2 Girl Geeks to the Client.

 

1. Acceptance. It is not necessary for any Client to have signed an acceptance of these terms and conditions for them to apply. If a Client accepts a quote then the Client will be deemed to have satisfied themselves as to the terms applying and have accepted these terms and conditions in full.Please read these terms and conditions carefully. Any purchase or use of our services implies that you have read and accepted our terms and conditions.

2. Charges. Charges for services to be provided by 2 Girl Geeks are defined by our online shop, or by invoice / project quotation that the Client receives via e-mail. (Quotations for bespoke packages are valid for a period of 30 days. 2 Girl Geeks reserves the right to alter or decline to provide a quotation after expiry of the 30 days.)

Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all UK Based Standard & Bespoke website design services require an advance payment of 50% of the project total which will trigger work commencing on the project. The remaining 50% of the project quotation total due upon completion of the website framework, prior to upload to the server or release of materials. Please note, by completion of work we deem to be the website pages. If a 3rd party (eg a booking system) is due to be added to the website we require this 3rd party to be fully available for integration by the time the web pages are complete. Should there be delay in completing the website due to a 3rd party not being available, we require full payment of the remaining 50%. We will then complete the integration when it becomes available.

Payment for services is by bank transfer. Bank details will be made available on invoices.

3. Client Review. 2 Girl Geeks will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website.  Clients will receive two rounds of design amends to the original concept designs we provide. Further amendments required over above those made at the 2 design amend stages will be charged at the current hourly rate.  At the completion of the project, the client will be sent a sign-off form to return. If the client fails to return the form within 10 days of receipt,  the website will be deemed to be accepted and approved.

4. Turnaround Time and Content Control. 2 Girl Geeks will publicly post or supply the Client's website by the date specified in the project proposal, or at date agreed with Client upon 2 Girl Geeks receiving initial payment, unless a delay is specifically requested by the Client and agreed by 2 Girl Geeks. In return, the Client agrees to delegate a single individual as a primary contact to aid 2 Girl Geeks with progressing the commission in a satisfactory and expedient manner. At the commencement of the project, 2 Girl Geeks will require the Client to provide website content; text & images where required.

Once a website has gone 'live' on its domain, the client may request minor tweaks and amendments for a duration of 14 days after the live date. After this period any amendments or changes required by the client (that they are not able to carry out themselves) is chargeable at our standard hourly rate. This 14 days gives the client ample opportunity to look over their site and check for anything they may have missed before the site went live.

5. Failure to provide required website content and imagery: 2 Girl Geeks is a small business and to remain efficient we must ensure that work we have programmed is carried out at the scheduled time. On occasions we may have to reject offers for other work and enquiries to ensure that your work is completed at the time arranged.

This is why we ask that you provide all the required information in advance. On any occasion where progress cannot be made with your website because we have not been given the required information in the agreed time frame, and we are delayed as result, we reserve the right to impose a surcharge of up to 25%.

If you agree to provide us with the required information and subsequently fail to do within one week of project commencement we reserve the right to close the project and the balance remaining becomes payable immediately.

The Client is responsible for providing imagery/photography unless previously agreed with 2 Girl Geeks. 2 Girl Geeks reverses the right to issue the final invoice for payment in full if imagery/photography is outstanding within the website build prior to the website being complete and published. 

Simply put, all the above condition says is do not give us the go ahead to start until you are ready to do so.

NOTE: Text content should be delivered as a Microsoft Word, email (or similar) document with the pages in the supplied document representing the content of the relevant pages on your website. These pages should have the same titles as the agreed website pages. Contact us if you need clarification on this.

6. Third Party Coding: The Client is responsible for providing 2 Girl Geeks with suitable coding/widget links for third party booking calendars. Should clients not have those links available at the time that the website is otherwise completed, the client agrees to sign off and settle to remaining balance on receipt of an invoice and 2 Girl Geeks commits to adding the links , as part of the website build fee paid , once they are made available. 

7. Payment. Invoices are normally sent via email; however, the Client may choose to receive hard copy invoices. Invoices are due upon receipt.
