Terms and Conditions
Our Terms and Conditions were last updated on August 15, 2024.
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using Our Service.
All work is carried out by Camila Belén Design on the understanding that the client has agreed to our terms and conditions.
Copyright is retained by Camila Belén Design on all design work including words, pictures, visuals and illustrations unless specifically released in writing and after all costs have been settled.
If a choice of designs is presented and one is chosen for your project, only that solution is deemed to be given by us as fulfilling the contract. All other designs remain property of Camila Belén Design, unless specifically agreed in writing.
PROJECT ACCEPTANCE
Camila Belén Design will provide the Client with a written proposal, including a quotation/estimate, by email. The Client should send an email acknowledging acceptance of the proposal quotation. For the avoidance of doubt, the Camila Belén Design Terms and Conditions are what govern the job and these Terms and Conditions can be read at any time on the Camila Belén Design website.
DESIGN PAYMENTS
Charges for design services to be provided by Camila Belén Design will be specified in the written estimate via a proposal sent to the client. Once the client reviews and accepts this estimate, indicating acceptance of the Terms & Conditions, a contract will be sent with the specifics of the project scope and terms. Once the client signs the contract provided, a non-refundable payment of 50% of the fee specified in the estimate will become immediately due.
Unless agreed otherwise with the client, all design services require an advance payment of fifty (50) percent of the project estimate total before the work begins or is supplied to the Client for review. The remaining fifty (50) percent of the estimate will be due upon completion of the work prior to the upload of the final files or release of materials.
Any invoice queries must be submitted by email within 14 days of the invoice date.
The Client agrees to pay the amount owed within 15 days of receiving the invoice. Payment after that date will incur a late fee of 10.0% per month on the outstanding amount.
Payments must be made by credit or debit card or other options provided through the Client’s invoice.
Publication and/or release of the work done by Camila Belén Design on behalf of the client, may not take place before cleared funds have been received.
COPYRIGHT AND TRADEMARKS
By supplying text, images and other data to Camila Belén Design for inclusion in the customer’s website or other medium, the customer declares that it holds the appropriate copyright and/or trademark permissions. The ownership of such materials will remain with the customer, or rightful copyright or trademark owner.
Any artwork, images, or text supplied and/or designed by Camila Belén Design on behalf of the customer will remain the property of Camila Belén Design and/or its suppliers unless otherwise agreed in writing. A license for use of the copyright material is granted to the customer solely for the project defined in the scope or request and not for any other purpose.
The Client may request in writing from Camila Belén Design, the necessary permission to use materials (for which Camila Belén Design holds the copyright) in forms other than for which it was originally supplied, and Camila Belén Design, at its discretion, grant this and may charge for the additional usage. Such permission must be obtained in writing before any of the aforesaid artwork, images, text or other data is used.
Any software, code, plugin or other third party material used in a web or digital project remains the property of the creator and any ongoing license fees or fees for upgrades are the responsibility of the client, not Camila Belén Design. By supplying images, text, or any other data to Camila Belén Design, the Client grants Camila Belén Design permission to use this material freely in the pursuit of the design.
Should Camila Belén Design, or the Client, supply an image, text, audio clip or any other file for use in a website, multimedia presentation, print item, exhibition, advertisement or any medium believing it to be copyright and royalty free, which subsequently emerges to have such copyright or royalty usage limitations, the customer will agree to allow Camila Belén Design to remove and/or replace the file on the site.
The customer agrees to fully indemnify and hold Camila Belén Design free from harm in any and all claims resulting from the customer in not having obtained all the required copyright, and/or any other necessary permissions.
Revisions and Alterations
Camila Belén Design offers a certain number of rounds of revisions for each project which are specified in the contract and/or proposal agreed upon with the client before starting the project. Additional revisions or significant changes to the original project scope may incur additional charges.
The customer also agrees that Camila Belén Design holds no responsibility for any amendments made by any third party, before or after a design is published.
PROJECT DURATION
Any indication given by Camila Belén Design of a design project’s duration is to be considered by the customer to be an estimation. Camila Belén Design cannot be held responsible for any project overruns, whatever the cause. Estimated project duration should be deemed to be from the date that cleared funds are received by Camila Belén Design for the initial payment or by date confirmed in writing by Camila Belén Design.
OWNERSHIP AND LICENSES
Client Owns All Work Product
As part of this job, the Designer is creating “work product” for the Client. To avoid confusion, work product is the finished product, as well as drafts, notes, materials, mockups, hardware, designs, inventions, patents, code, and anything else that the Designer works on—that is, conceives, creates, designs, develops, invents, works on, or reduces to practice—as part of this project, whether before the date of this Contract or after. The Designer hereby gives the Client this work product once the Client pays for it in full. This means the Designer is giving the Client all of its rights, titles, and interests in and to the work product (including intellectual property rights), and the Client will be the sole owner of it. The Client can use the work product however it wants or it can decide not to use the work product at all. The Client, for example, can modify, destroy, or sell it, as it sees fit.
Designer's Use Of Work Product
Once the Designer gives the work product to the Client, the Designer does not have any rights to it, except those that the Client explicitly gives the Designer here. The Client gives permission to use the work product as part of portfolios and websites, in galleries, and in other media, so long as it is to showcase the work and not for any other purpose. The Client does not give permission to sell or otherwise use the work product to make money or for any other commercial use. The Client is not allowed to take back this license, even after the Contract ends.
CANCELLATION
Cancellation of orders may be made initially by email, however, following this, Camila Belén Design will need formal notification in writing to the company’s postal address. The Client will then be invoiced for all work completed over and above the non-refundable deposit that will have been made at the time of first ordering. The balance of charges due must be paid within 30 days. Please note: any cancellation which is not formally confirmed in writing and received by Camila Belén Design within 14 days of such instruction being issued, will be liable for the full quoted cost of the project.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Camila Belén Design makes no warranties of any kind, express or implied, for any and all products and/or services that it supplies. Camila Belén Design will not be held responsible for any and all damages resulting from products and/or services it supplies. Camila Belén Design is not responsible for any loss, or consequential loss of data, or non-delivery of products or services, of whatever cause. While we take responsible steps to investigate the materials we recommend, we accept no responsibility for the performance or quality of materials or any consequential loss arising from their failure. The Client agrees not to hold Camila Belén Design responsible for any such loss or damage. Any claim against Camila Belén Design shall be limited to the relevant fee(s) paid by the Client, but in no case shall Camila Belén Design be held responsible for paying such fee(s) to the Client nor to the service/material provider.
Camila Belén Design reserves the right to use the services of sub-contractors, agents and suppliers and any work, content, services and usage is bound by their Terms and Conditions.
