Working with NT-Design

Agreement of terms & conditions

All work carried out by NT-Design is subject to the following terms & conditions. By instructing NT-Design to carry out any work, you (the client) agree to the following terms and conditions.

Provision of Materials & Copyright

All material supplied to NT-Design for inclusion in websites, printed material or any other media must be permitted for use by the owner of the copyright of such material. This includes photography, illustrations, music, text, videos and any other media required to be included. NT-Design can source royalty free media on behalf of clients if required or advise on sources for obtaining this media. Under no circumstances should material be supplied to NT-Design without the necessary permission for use within any work we carry out on your behalf. NT-Design reserve the right to reject content which we believe has not been sourced via the correct channels and licensed accordingly. By agreeing to these terms & conditions you agree to indemnify NT-Design from any claim which arises regarding the use of material with which you supply us. We reserve the right to use any artwork or printing we produce for the purposes of promoting our services unless you request otherwise in writing.

Printed material

For all printed material we require sign off for artwork ahead of printing. Once a client has approved artwork for print, our printers will be instructed to proceed. If changes are requested after this point we will attempt to make the correction ahead of the print process commencing but this cannot be guaranteed and may incur a cost from our printers to setup new printing plates to accommodate the changes. All costs will be the responsibility of the client if artwork has previously been approved for print. Print will only commence once these costs have been covered. Upon sign off of artwork and print commencing, NT-Design will under no circumstances accept responsibility for any errors, mistakes, spelling or other issues raised by the client. Every effort will be made to obtain the best possible colour reproduction on customer's work but because of the nature of the processes involved, NT-Design cannot guarantee an exact match in colour.

Websites

Upon completion and sign off of by the client, websites will become the responsibility of the client to update and maintain, unless otherwise agreed with NT-Design. NT-Design will be happy to support clients in website updates (content and platform updates e.g. Wordpress) at our standard hourly rate providing resources are available. NT-Design makes no guarantees on turnaround times or commitments to updating sites or resolving any issues that may occur post launch, but we will of course aim to help and support as soon as possible.

For Wordpress websites, we will offer the client the option to have the website automatically update with any Wordpress updates which will provide the best levels of security and functionality. However we accept no responsibility on the stability or compatibility of updates given the nature of the Wordpress platform. The client can also chose to manually apply updates when required, however there may be a risk to the website security if any security updates are not applied promptly after release.

NT-Design will offer Wordpress clients the option to use 2FA (two factor authentication) to login to their website and provide extra security. A selection of emergency recover codes will be issued to the client to keep safe. However, if the client should lose the ability to login (e.g. changes a phone that was used to authorise 2FA) and/or does not have access to emergency recovery codes - the client understands that access to edit/update the site will cease to be available. NT-Design will also be unable to access unless the client has prior agreed for NT-Design to retain an Admin login to the website with 2FA post the launch of the website.

2FA is a recommended security option, but using strong passwords is a must at all times to keep your Wordpress site safe.

NT-Design will offer clients the option to setup automated backups of Wordpress sites which will be sent to the web server and an external location such as the clients drop-box account. We highly recommend this option is taken to ensure a recent backup is always available if needed.

During the build of your website (if we are updating an existing site), there will be periods of time where the website may not be available to the public. We will aim to minimise these periods and advise clients on when they may occur as best we can.

Website server up-time will not be a responsibility of NT-Design but will sit with the chosen hosting company.

 

Quotes

All quotes for work are valid for thirty (30) days, after which time all proposed work will have to be re-quoted. We take no responsibility for a re-quoted price differing from an original quote.

Illegal Matter

NT-Design reserves the right not to print or use any matter deemed illegal or offensive, or which may be an infringement of the proprietary or other rights of any third party.
