Draft for review — effective date to be added.
These Terms of Service govern access to the Lathrop Web Design website. They are a general template and should be reviewed by qualified counsel and aligned with final business practices and client agreements.
Website information
The website provides general information about web design, development, hosting, maintenance, and digital solutions. Content is not a binding offer unless expressly stated in an accepted written agreement.
Quotes and project scope
Quotes should describe deliverables, assumptions, milestones, fees, payment schedule, client responsibilities, revision limits, third-party costs, and acceptance process. Work begins when the required agreement and initial payment, if any, are received.
Client responsibilities
Clients should provide accurate information, lawful content, timely feedback, authorized account access, and necessary rights to supplied materials. Delays in approvals or assets may affect delivery dates and scope.
Fees and payments
Fees, taxes, deposits, late charges, and payment milestones must be set out in the applicable proposal or agreement.
Third-party services
Projects may rely on hosting providers, domain registrars, plugins, themes, APIs, payment services, or other vendors. Their terms, availability, licensing, and fees may apply separately.
Intellectual property
Ownership and licensing of code, designs, copy, graphics, and deliverables must be defined in the project agreement. Third-party and open-source materials remain subject to their own licenses.
Acceptable use
Visitors may not misuse the site, attempt unauthorized access, interfere with its operation, submit malicious code, infringe rights, or use forms for unlawful or abusive purposes.
Disclaimers and liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the website is provided on an informational basis. Limitations, exclusions, and remedies for paid services must be stated clearly in the signed agreement and may not apply where prohibited by law.
Termination and disputes
Termination, cancellation, refunds, governing law, dispute resolution, and notice procedures should be addressed in the applicable signed agreement. Mandatory consumer protections may override selected terms.
Updates and contact
We may update these website terms. Add the effective date and legal business identity before launch. These terms do not replace a project-specific service agreement.
Before launch: Confirm the operating legal entity, business address, actual service practices, vendors, tracking tools, retention schedules, and applicable jurisdictions. Obtain qualified legal review. Last updated: October 15, 2026.
