Cancellation Process
You may terminate or cancel the Services by giving Imakethe.net written notice via email by opening a ticket at www.imakethe.net/contact.

Website Design & Design Terms & Conditions
Design
We create designs that adapt to the capabilities of many devices and screen sizes. We create them iteratively and use predominantly HTML and CSS or WordPress. We may create wireframes, concepts and mock-up designs. Some of our packages do not include wireframes or mock-ups to save time and money.
You will have plenty of opportunities to review our work and provide feedback. We will either share a Dropbox, Google Drive folder or Github repository or development site with you and we will have regular, possibly daily contact by either phone, email, Skype, or Zoom.
If—at any stage—you change your mind about what you want delivered or aren’t happy with the direction our work is taking, you’ll pay us in full for the time we’ve spent working until that point and may terminate this contract.
Text content
Unless agreed separately, we are not responsible for inputting text or images into your content management system or creating every page on your website. We provide professional copywriting and editing services, so if you would like us to create new content or input content for you, we will provide a separate estimate.
Your Responsibilities
You acknowledge that you shall be responsible for performing the following in a reasonable and timely manner:
(a) coordination of any decision-making with parties other than the designer;
(b) provision of content in a form suitable for reproduction or incorporation into the deliverables without further preparation, unless otherwise expressly provided in the specification.
(c) final proofreading and in the event that you have approved deliverables but errors, such as, by way of example, not limitation, typographic errors or misspellings, remain in the finished product, you shall incur the cost of correcting such errors
(d) ensuring that all information and claims comprising the content you provide are accurate, legal and conform to applicable standards in your industry.
Graphics and photographs
You should supply graphic files in an editable, vector digital format. You should supply photographs in a high-resolution digital format. If you choose to buy stock photographs, we can suggest stock libraries. If you would like us to search for photographs for you, we can provide a separate estimate.
HTML, CSS, WordPress and JavaScript
We deliver pages developed from HTML markup, CSS stylesheets for styling and unobtrusive JavaScript for behaviours or WordPress and associated plugins. We are not liable for bugs in WordPress or third party plugins.
Browser testing
Browser testing no longer means attempting to make a website look the same in browsers of different capabilities or on devices with different size screens. It does mean ensuring that a person’s experience of a design should be appropriate to the capabilities of a browser or device.
We test our work in current versions of major desktop browsers including those made by Apple (Safari), Google (Chrome), Microsoft (Edge) and Mozilla Firefox. We will not test in other older browsers unless we agreed separately. If you need an enhanced design for an older browser, we can provide a separate estimate for that.
Mobile browser testing
Testing using popular smaller screen devices is essential in ensuring that a person’s experience of a design is appropriate to the capabilities of the device they are using.
We test our designs in:
iOS: Safari and Google Chrome
Android: Google Chrome
We will not test in Opera Mini/Mobile, specific Android devices, or other mobile browsers unless we agreed separately. If you need us to test using these, we can provide a separate estimate.
You shall notify us, in writing, of any failure of such deliverable to comply with the specifications set forth in the website specification, or of any other objections, corrections, changes or amendments you wish made to such deliverable. You agree to notify us of any problems with the deliverables within 5 working days. In the absence of such notice from you the deliverable shall be deemed accepted.
Technical support & hosting
You agree to pay on an ongoing basis for the website hosting if you need us to host your website. We will have told you how much the hosting payment will be. You agree to pay for the website hosting on the agreed schedule.
We provide free technical support as part of our website hosting plans. We do not provide free technical support if you do not host the website with us.
You agree to the website hosting terms and conditions available at:
www.imakethe.net/terms-of-service
If you wish to host somewhere else, we can set up your site on a server, provide technical support plus any statistics software such as Google Analytics and will provide a separate estimate for that. Then, the updates to, and management of that server will be up to you unless you host the website with us and we have agreed to do so in the specification.
Search engine optimisation (SEO)
We do not guarantee improvements to your website’s search engine ranking, but the pages that we develop are accessible to search engines. If you require ongoing search engine optimisation work, then we will provide a separate estimate for that
Changes and revisions
We do not want to limit your ability to change your mind. The price at the beginning of the contract is based on the number of days or weeks that we estimate we will need to accomplish everything you have told us you want to achieve, but we’re happy to be flexible. If you want to change your mind or add anything new, that will not be a problem as we will provide a separate estimate for those additional days or weeks.
You pay additional charges for changes requested by you which are outside the scope of the services on a time and materials basis, at our standard hourly rate of £15 per hour. Such charges shall be in addition to all other amounts payable under the specification, despite any maximum budget, contract price or final price identified therein. We may extend or modify any delivery schedule or deadlines in the specification and deliverables as may be required by such changes.
If you request or instruct changes that amount to a revision in or near excess of percent 20% of the time required to produce the deliverables, and or the value or scope of the services, we are entitled to submit a new and separate specification to you for written approval. Work shall not begin on the revised services until revised specification is approved and, if required, any additional retainer fees are received by us.
Suspension Fee
You acknowledge that we have reserved time exclusively to perform the services. accordingly, in the event you cause a delay in the services, you shall pay to us, in addition to fees and expenses already incurred through the date of such delay, a suspension fee equal to £15 per hour for idle time caused by the your delay, unless we are able to secure other work for that time for the same or greater compensation. You acknowledge that if we accept other work because of a delay caused by you, we may adjust time to complete the services as necessary to accommodate such other work.
Legal
We will carry out our work in accordance with good industry practice and at the standard expected from a suitably qualified person with relevant experience. That said, we can’t guarantee that our work will be error-free and so we can’t be liable to you or any third-party for damages, including lost profits, lost savings or other incidental, consequential or special damages, even if you’ve advised us of them.
Your liability to us will also be limited to the amount of fees payable under the contract and you won’t be liable to us or any third-party for damages, including lost profits, lost savings or other incidental, consequential or special damages, even if we’ve advised you of them.
