Web Design Services

The client unconditionally guarantees that any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks, or other artwork furnished to us for inclusion in the web design project are owned by the client, or that the client has permission from the rightful owner to use each of these elements, and will hold harmless, protect and defend Hok Nik Creative Inc. and its subcontractors from any claim or suit arising from the use of such elements furnished by the client.

The Designer owns copyright to the finished web design site produced. The client will be assigned rights to use the web design project as a web site, once final payment under this agreement and any additional charges incurred have been paid. Rights to royalty free photos, graphics, source code, work-up files and computer programs are specifically not transferred to the client, and remain the property of their respective owners. All web design projects completed by our studio contain a credit link to the designer, unless stipulated otherwise by the client.

Prior to design, the Management reserves the right to refuse to construct a web site which may be judged as unfit due to content issues or otherwise.

Customers will pay a 50% deposit for design fees before work on design begins. The remaining 50% will be due upon completion of the project. Your site will not be posted for Internet viewing until all design fees have been paid. If a client decides not to continue with design service after the initial deposit has been paid and after design work has begun to the programming stage, no refund will be issued. We accept most major credit cards as well as company cheques.

As every assignment is different, we determine ‘estimated’ design costs. If your project expands in scope, we reserve the right to bill in addition to the estimated price at our standard hourly rates. We recognize the need for budget control and financial accountability. If awarded your project(s) we will supplement the estimates provided with written or verbal cost reports at predetermined points throughout the projects.
