Payment Policy: Large projects (over $3,000 USD) can be paid in two installments via PayPal or bank transfer. If you choose this option, the second payment is due after the first stage is complete.
Project Initiation: We can't begin a project until we've received the full payment or the initial installment.
Cancellations: Once a project has started, it cannot be partially canceled. Full payment is required for any project already underway due to the time and resources invested.
General Terms
Project Requirements: You must complete the order requirements form to begin your project. The information you provide will be the foundation for our work. If you add new requirements after the project has started, an additional fee of $195 USD per hour may apply to cover the extra research and development time. Please be thorough and accurate.
Written Requirements and Changes: The project requirements and change requests must be submitted in writing to avoid any confusion or loss of information.
Project Timeline: Our development times are based on our quality standards and our current project queue. We cannot fast-track confirmed projects.
Project Approval: After we deliver a project phase, you have up to 10 days to request changes or provide feedback. If we don't hear from you within this timeframe, that phase will be considered automatically approved.
Cancellations: A project cannot be canceled once you have submitted the requirements.
AI Policy: While we don't use AI for core creative tasks like strategy, briefing, writing, or content creation, we do use it to support and expand our capacity. We see AI as a tool to maximize our skills, much like a magician with a magic wand.
Copyright & Usage
All ownership rights of the final approved material (not drafts) will be automatically transferred to you. This will also be added to your invoice. If a client uses a draft, they will be invoiced separately for the rights to that specific material.
Requirements: The project requirements and change requests must be submitted in writing to avoid any confusion or loss of information.
