By using this site or engaging me for work, you agree to these terms. If you are agreeing on behalf of a company or organisation, you confirm you are able to do so on its behalf. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the site or commission work from me.

I am a small studio offering website design, user experience strategy, and development, along with related ongoing support. The exact deliverables, timeline, and responsibilities for any engagement are set out in a proposal or statement of work agreed before work begins. Anything outside that agreed scope — new pages, added features, or a change of direction partway through — is handled as a separate conversation and may affect timing and cost.

Once a project is complete and paid for in full, the final deliverables made specifically for you are yours to own and use. Until then, work in progress remains my property. Third-party components, fonts, stock assets, and libraries are licensed rather than owned. My own underlying tools, methods, and any general techniques stay mine to reuse elsewhere. I like showing work I'm proud of, so unless we agree otherwise, completed projects may show up in my portfolio.

Fees, instalments, and payment schedules are set out in the proposal for each project. As a rule, I invoice against agreed stages or milestones, with payment due within the period stated on the invoice. Larger engagements typically begin with a deposit before work starts. If an invoice goes unpaid, work may pause until the account is settled. Payment is accepted by bank transfer, Venmo, or Cash App — whichever is easiest on your end.

I take real care in my work and stand behind it — defects reported within a reasonable period after handover, and that trace back to my error, get put right. Beyond that, the site and my services are provided on an "as is" basis.

To the extent permitted by law, I'm not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the site or my services. Where liability is found, it won't exceed the fees you paid for the work in question.

These terms are governed by the laws of the studio's home jurisdiction, and any dispute will be dealt with by the courts of that jurisdiction. In practice, I would much prefer to resolve any disagreement directly and reasonably before it ever reaches that point.

These terms may update occasionally as services or obligations change, and the date at the top always reflects the latest version. For active projects, the terms in force when work was agreed continue to apply to that engagement.
