2.0 Web Site Design Services
All web design services provided by TSFY Ltd to the Customer are subject to the following terms and conditions.
2.1 Scope of Work and Price Agreement
Charges for Services to be provided by TSFY Ltd will be defined in the customer’s Project Proposal and in the Service Agreement. Under normal trading circumstances, the Service Agreement will be issued by TSFY Ltd following invoice of a request for quotation from the Customer, which shall identify the scope of work intended.
TSFY Ltd will provide its quotation which will include the Project Proposal for acceptance or comment by the Customer. Any quote is valid only for 30 days. Once the Project Proposal has been accepted by the Customer, this will then be deemed to be the sole part of the Service Agreement which will specify the scope of work.
Where possible and relevant, based upon the information provided by the Customer, such other resources will be identified in the Service Agreement. However, in those circumstances whereby such resources cannot be reasonably identified at the Project Proposal stage, then TSFY Ltd reserves the right to issue an amendment to the Service Agreement as soon as it becomes clear that additional resources might be required, which might include a re-evaluation of the costs quoted.
The customer agrees that changes required over and above the estimated work or required to be carried out after acceptance of the draft design will be liable to a separate charge. The customer also agrees that TSFY Ltd holds no responsibility for any amendments made by any third party, before or after a design is published.
Any indication given by TSFY Ltd of a project’s duration is to be considered by the customer to be an estimation. TSFY Ltd cannot be held responsible for any project over-runs, whatever the cause. Estimated project duration should be deemed to be from the date that cleared funds are received by TSFY Ltd for the initial payment or by date confirmed in writing by TSFY Ltd.
2.2 Payment Clause
All services require an advance non-refundable deposit of 50% (fifty percent or greater at our discretion) of the project quotation total before the work is supplied to the Customer for review. The remaining will be due upon completion of the work or at stage payment as agreed in the proposal. Work on the project will not commence until TSFY Ltd has received this amount, unless a different payment schedule is agreed and stated in the Service Agreement.
Charges for any additional services over and above the estimated design, will become fully payable at the time of estimate or quotation acceptance. Publication and/or release of work carried out by TSFY Ltd on behalf of the Customer, may not take place before cleared funds have been received.
2.3 Customer Review
TSFY Ltd will provide the Customer with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the Web site during the design prototype stage.
The customer agrees to allow TSFY Ltd to place a small credit on printed material exhibition displays, advertisements and/or a link to TSFY Ltd’s own website on the customer’s website. This will usually be in the form of a small logo or line of text placed towards the bottom of the page. The customer also agrees to allow TSFY Ltd to place websites and other designs, along with a link to the Customer’s site on TSFY Ltd’s own website for demonstration purposes and to use any designs in its own publicity.
2.4 Customer Acceptance
At the “sign-off” stage the customer will be presented with the completed design. Such materials will be deemed as acceptable and approved unless the Customer notifies TSFY Ltd to the contrary within 14 days of the date the materials were made available.

Accounts unpaid 30 (thirty) days after the date of invoice will be considered in default. If the Customer in default maintains any information or files on TSFY Ltd’s Web space, TSFY Ltd will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web space. TSFY Ltd is not responsible for any loss of data incurred due to the removal of the service. Removal of such material does not relieve the Customer of the obligation to pay any outstanding charges assessed to the Customer’s account. Customers with accounts in default agree to pay TSFY Ltd reasonable expenses, including legal fees and costs for collection by third-party agencies, incurred by TSFY Ltd in enforcing these GTC.
2.6 Termination
Termination of services by the Customer must be requested in writing and signed as an amendment to the Service Agreement. Termination will be effective on receipt of such notice. The Customer will be invoiced for design work completed to the date of first notice of cancellation for payment in full within 30 (thirty) days.
