Terms and conditions

1. Services

We provide design-led front-end and full-stack development, motion and interaction implementation, WebGL work, QA, deployment and ongoing support, primarily as a production partner for design and branding agencies and for in-house design teams.

Each engagement is defined in a separate written proposal, statement of work or order form (the “Proposal”) that sets out scope, deliverables, timeline, team allocation and fees. Where a Proposal conflicts with these Terms, the Proposal prevails for that engagement.

2. Proposals, estimates and scope

• Estimates are based on the materials and assumptions available at the time of quoting and remain valid for 30 days unless stated otherwise.
• Work begins once the Proposal is accepted in writing and any agreed deposit is received.
• Anything not expressly listed in the Proposal is out of scope. Additional requests are quoted separately and may affect the timeline.
• Timelines assume timely delivery of final designs, content, access and feedback from your side.

3. Your responsibilities

To deliver on schedule we rely on you to provide complete design files, brand assets, copy, third-party accounts and credentials, and consolidated feedback within the agreed review windows. You confirm that you hold the necessary rights to all materials you supply and that they do not infringe the rights of any third party or breach applicable law. Delays or incomplete inputs on your side may shift delivery dates and cost.

4. Fees and payment

• Fees, currency, milestones and billing cadence are stated in the Proposal. Unless agreed otherwise, invoices are payable within 14 days of the invoice date.
• Fixed-scope projects normally require a deposit before kick-off; retainers and time-and-materials engagements are invoiced monthly.
• All fees are exclusive of taxes, duties, bank charges and third-party costs such as licences, hosting, fonts or stock assets, which are your responsibility unless stated otherwise.
• We may suspend work and withhold deliverables on overdue accounts and may charge statutory interest on late payments.

5. Intellectual property

Upon full payment of all amounts due for the relevant engagement, we assign to you the intellectual property rights in the bespoke deliverables produced specifically for you.

We retain ownership of our pre-existing tools, libraries, frameworks, boilerplates, internal know-how and any generic components developed independently of your project, and grant you a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive licence to use them as embedded in the deliverables. Third-party and open-source components remain subject to their own licences.

6. Portfolio and credit

Unless the Proposal or a separate confidentiality agreement says otherwise, we may reference completed work in our portfolio, case studies, awards submissions and social channels after public launch, and describe our role in it. We will honour reasonable embargo periods and any written request to keep an engagement confidential.

7. Confidentiality

Each party will keep the other party’s non-public information confidential, use it only for the purposes of the engagement, and protect it with at least the same care it applies to its own confidential information. These obligations survive for 3 years after the engagement ends and do not apply to information that is public, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law.

8. Warranties and bug fixes

We perform our services with reasonable skill and care, in line with professional industry standards. We warrant that the deliverables will substantially conform to the Proposal for 30 days after delivery, and we will correct reported defects within that period at no additional cost.

The warranty does not cover issues caused by changes made by you or a third party, by third-party services, browsers or platforms, by content or assets you supplied, or by use of the deliverables outside their intended purpose. Except as stated here, the services and the Website are provided “as is”, without further warranties of any kind to the fullest extent permitted by law.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, goodwill or data. Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with an engagement is limited to the total fees paid by you to us for that engagement in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, wilful misconduct or any liability that cannot be excluded by law.

10. Third-party services

Projects often depend on third-party platforms, APIs, hosting, CDNs, fonts and analytics providers. We integrate them with care but do not control them and are not responsible for their availability, pricing, terms or changes. Their licences and terms apply directly between you and the provider.

11. Term, suspension and termination

Either party may terminate an engagement with 14 days’ written notice. You remain liable for all work completed and all non-cancellable third-party commitments made up to the effective termination date. We may suspend or terminate immediately in the event of non-payment, breach of these Terms, or unlawful use of our work. On termination we will hand over completed deliverables for which payment has been received.

12. Use of the Website

You may use the Website for lawful, informational purposes only. You may not copy, scrape, republish or reverse engineer any part of it, attempt to gain unauthorised access, or interfere with its operation. All Website content, including text, layout, code, imagery and the Artydevs name and logo, is owned by us or our licensors.

13. Force majeure

Neither party is liable for delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including war, armed conflict, acts of government, power or infrastructure outages, natural disasters and epidemics. Affected obligations are suspended for the duration of the event, and each party will use reasonable efforts to mitigate its impact.

14. Governing law and disputes

The governing law and the forum for any dispute are those stated in the applicable Proposal. The parties will first attempt to resolve any dispute in good faith through direct negotiation between authorised representatives; failing that, the dispute will be referred to the courts or arbitral body designated in the Proposal.

15. General

These Terms, together with the applicable Proposal, form the entire agreement between the parties and supersede prior discussions. If any provision is held invalid, the remainder stays in force. Neither party may assign the agreement without the other’s written consent, except to a successor of its business. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture or employment relationship.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The current version is always the one published on this page, and it applies to engagements entered into after publication. Existing engagements continue under the version in force when the Proposal was accepted, unless both parties agree otherwise.
