The following terms and conditions apply to all services, including website development and design services, (the Services) provided by Creation Web Solutions ltd (Creation Web) to the Client, in conjunction with any relevant quotation provided to the Client by Creation Web (Terms), unless otherwise agreed in writing. Acceptance of a quote, purchase and/or use of the Services shall be considered acceptance of the Terms.
01. Charges
Charges for the Services are defined in the project quotation that the Client receives from Creation Web via email. Quotations are valid for a period of 30 days. Creation Web reserves the right to alter a quotation or decline to provide the relevant Services after expiry of the 30 days.
Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all website design services require an advance payment of a minimum of fifty (50) percent of the project quotation total before the work commences. Once work has commenced the advanced payment of fifty (50) percent is non refundable on cancellation/termination. A second payment of fifty (50) percent is required upon completion of the work, prior to upload to the server or release of materials.
The Client agrees to reimburse Creation Web for any additional expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Expenses may include (but are not limited to) purchase of domain names, special fonts and stock photography.
All Charges are exclusive of VAT. We are not VAT registered and do not charge VAT.
Late payments for invoices will incur a charge of £25 after 5 days of invoice not being paid in full. If invoice is still not paid in full after this, then a charge of £50 per day the invoice is due will be added on to the total amount. Your website may be taken down also if invoice is not paid on time.
02. Invoicing and payment
Creation Web shall submit invoices in line with the timescales above. Invoices are normally sent via email, but hard copy invoices are available on request. Payment is due on receipt of the invoice by the Client.
Payment for services is due by Paypal, cheque or bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to Creation Web Solutions Ltd and sent to Creation Web Solutions Ltd, 74 Magpie Walk, Waterlooville. Hampshire. PO89XA. Bank details will be made available on invoices.
If the Client fails to make any payment due to Creation Web by the due date for payment, then, without limiting Creation Web’s remedies under or in connection with these terms and conditions, the Client shall pay interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% per annum above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time. Such interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. The Client shall pay the interest together with the overdue amount.
Accounts unpaid thirty (30) days after the date of invoice will be considered in default. If the Client in default maintains any information or files on Creation Web’s web space, Creation Web will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web space. Creation Web is not responsible for any loss of data incurred due to the removal of the service. Removal of such material does not relieve the Client of the obligation to pay any outstanding charges assessed to the Client’s account. Cheques returned for insufficient funds will be assessed a return charge of £25 and the Client’s account will immediately be considered to be in default until full payment is received. Clients with accounts in default agree to pay Creation Web reasonable expenses, including legal fees and costs for collection by third-party agencies, incurred by Creation Web in enforcing these Terms.
03. Client Review
Creation Web will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website during the design phase and once the overall website development is completed. At the completion of the project, such materials will be deemed to be accepted and approved unless the Client notifies Creation Web otherwise within ten (10) days of the date the materials are made available to the Client.
04. Turnaround Time and Content Control
Creation Web will install and publicly post or supply the Client’s website by the date specified in the project proposal, or at the date agreed with Client upon Creation Web receiving initial payment, unless a delay is specifically requested by the Client and agreed by Creation Web.
In return, the Client agrees to provide Creation Web promptly with all necessary co-operation, information, materials and data, access to staff and timely decision-making which may be reasonably required by Creation Web for the performance of the Services. This shall include the Client delegating a single individual as a primary contact to aid Creation Web with progressing the commission in a satisfactory and expedient manner.
During the project, Creation Web will require the Client to provide website content; text, images, movies and sound files, along with any relevant background information.
If work demands become high, we may use paid for templates to reduce workload. You will however recieve 6 months support with the theme creator via us.
05. Failure to provide required website content
Creation Web 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 the Client provides all the required information in advance. On any occasion where progress cannot be made with the Client’s 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% of the Charges. If the Services involve Search Engine Optimisation we need the text content for the Client’s site in advance so that the SEO can be planned and completed efficiently.
If the Client agrees 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. Simply put, do not give us the go ahead to start until you are ready to do so.
NOTE: Text content must 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 must have the same titles as the agreed website pages. Contact us if you need clarification on this.
Using our content management system the Client is able to keep your content up to date itself.
06. Web Browsers
Creation Web makes every effort to ensure websites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors. Websites are designed to work with the most popular current browsers (e.g. Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge etc.). The Client agrees that Creation Web cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems.
Creation Web cannot accept responsibility for web pages which do not display acceptably in new versions of browsers released after the website has been designed and handed over to the Client. As such, Creation Web reserves the right to quote for any work involved in changing the website design or website code for it to work with updated browser software.
07. Termination
Termination of services by the Client must be requested in a written notice and will be effective on receipt of such notice. Email or telephone requests for termination of services will not be honoured until and unless confirmed in writing. The Client will be invoiced for work completed (including any expenses incurred, as outlined in clause 1) to the date of first notice of cancellation for payment in full within thirty (30) days.
08. Indemnity
All Creation Web services may be used for lawful purposes only. The Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Creation Web against all damages, losses and expenses arising as a result of any and all actions or claims resulting from the Client’s use of Creation Web’s service.
09. Intellectual property

The Client must obtain permission and rights to use any information or files that are copyrighted by a third party. The Client is further responsible for granting Creation Web permission and rights for use of the same. A contract for website design and/or placement shall be regarded as a guarantee by the Client to Creation Web that all such permissions and authorities have been obtained. Evidence of permissions and authorities may be requested. The Client shall indemnify and hold harmless Creation Web against all damages, losses and expenses arising as a result of any and all actions or claims that any materials provided to Creation Web by or on behalf of the Client infringe the IP Rights of a third party.

Both parties will comply with all applicable requirements of Data Protection Law. This clause is in addition to, and does not relieve, remove or replace, a party’s obligations or rights under Data Protection Law.
The Client will comply with Data Protection Law in connection with the collection, storage and processing of personal data (which shall include you providing all the required fair processing information to, and obtaining all necessary consent from, data subjects), and the exercise and performance of your respective rights and obligations under these terms and conditions, including all instructions given by the Client to Creation Web and maintaining all relevant regulatory registrations and notifications as required under Data Protection Law.
The parties acknowledge that if Creation Web processes any personal data on the Client’s behalf when performing its obligations under this agreement, the Client is the controller and Creation Web is the processor for the purposes of Data Protection Law.
The scope, nature and purpose of processing by Creation Web, the duration of the processing and the types of personal data and categories of data subject are set out in our Privacy Notice and the project quotation.
n relation to the processing of personal data under these terms and conditions, Creation Web shall:
process personal data on the Client’s behalf only on and in accordance with the Client’s documented instructions as set out in this clause 11 (as updated from time to time by agreement between the parties), unless required to do so by applicable law; in such a case, we shall inform you of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest;
ensure that persons authorised to process personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;

assist you in ensuring compliance with the obligations pursuant to Articles 32 to 36 of the GDPR, taking into account the nature of processing and the information available to us and only in the event that you cannot reasonably be expected to comply with the requirements of Articles 32 to 36 without our information and/or assistance (e.g. you do not possess or otherwise have access to the information requested). We may charge our reasonable costs on a time and materials basis in providing you with such assistance;

Following receipt of such information you shall notify us if you object to the new sub-processor.

If you have raised a reasonable objection to the new sub-processor, and the parties have failed to agree on a solution within reasonable time, the Client shall have the right to terminate these Terms with a notice period determined by the Client, without prejudice to any other remedies available under law or contract. During the notice period, we shall not transfer any personal data processed on the Client’s behalf to the sub-processor.
Creation Web shall enter into appropriate written agreements with all of its sub-processors on terms substantially similar to these Terms. We shall remain primarily liable to the Client for the performance or non-performance of the sub-processors’ obligations.

We will not transfer personal data processed on your behalf to a country outside the United Kingdom which is not recognised by the European Commission to have an adequate level of protection in accordance with Data Protection Law unless the transfer is effected by such legally enforceable mechanism(s) for transfers of personal data as may be permitted under Data Protection Laws from time to time.

The entire liability of Creation Web to the Client in respect of any claim whatsoever or breach of this Agreement, whether or not arising out of negligence, shall be limited to the charges paid for the Services under this Agreement in respect of which the breach has arisen.
21. Severability
In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired and the Agreement shall not be void for this reason alone.
