Web Site Design Terms and Conditions

Thank you for your interest in our services. Quintagroup work in a fair and reasonable manner at all times and maintain a great relationship with our clients. It is, however, important to have certain contractual aspects agreed in order to protect both parties. By hiring Quintagroup, and signing up as our Client, you agree to be legally bound by the following terms and conditions. Please read these terms and conditions carefully. Any purchase or use of our services implies that you have read and accepted our terms and conditions.

Quintagroup reserves the right to change or modify current terms and conditions at any time by updating this posting.

Project Process

The project will be run according to the Quintagroup Project Process. In case Quintagroup has produced a specification document for the project then we will  work within the time frames scheduled, provided you supply us with the related materials to be incorporated into the web design by the scheduled data collection delivery date.

During the web site design development cycle, Quintagroup may at intervals place versions of the client's web site on one of Quintagroup demonstration servers so that the client may review  the web site design progress.

When both Quintagroup and the client agree that the web site meets the criteria agreed upon during the projecting process, Quintagroup will present an invoice to the client for the remainder of the amount due for the project.

Quintagroup cannot always guarantee to start work immediately on a project but will agree to a date with the client as to when work can commence and be completed.

Limited Usage

Each individual skin can be used on a single website only. In case another project with the same design is to be make, the client has to purchase the same skin once more.

Modification

 The Client is authorized to make any necessary modifications to Plone skin purchased from Quintagroup.
Quintagroup provides Plone skin modifications service as well as maintenance and enhancements services for our clients. However, any maintenance or updates are outside the scope of the design project. When updates are required Quintagroup will provide time and materials based quotes for this work.

Project Duration

All Client's complaint concerning developed skin are accepted within 30 days after skin purchase date. If after 30 days the Client has failed to so respond, Quintagroup will assume the Project complete. At such time, Quintagroup will have no further obligation to Client, and Client shall pay Quintagroup all fees and expenses associated with work performed by Quintagroup.

Quintagroup is not and will not be held responsible for any legal action that may result from improper due diligence on the availability of a company name or image.

Payment

Quintagroup will begin the skin design development process upon receiving the initial payment of 50% of the price for the project. This invoice must be paid prior to the commencement of the project, and will not be refunded . The client will be notified by e-mail immediately upon payment confirmation, thus assigning a designer and confirming the immediate start of the project.

Payment is made through the 2Checkout System, to which client will have access provided upon project acceptance. We request a 50% deposit to start working, the rest is paid upon completion, unless other arrangements have been added and approved.

Once the project is complete and approved by the client the final balance will be invoiced.

If we haven’t received payment for your design development within 15 days after the due date, your website will be switched off until payment is received.

Refund Policy

Refunds are not normally available once the initial designs have been created and supplied to the client, but refunds for incomplete work will be considered at the discretion of the management.

Once you have purchased a Plone skin from Quintagroup, we cannot offer a refund, which you are held responsible for understanding upon purchase of a Plone skin. The reason for this policy is that Quintagroup provides non-tangible irrevocable goods. All refund requests are accepted within 1 month after purchase. Requests, that were not done within this term will not be satisfied.
