The exact scope of services for each project may be defined through a proposal, quotation, statement of work, contract, invoice, or other written agreement.

By using our website or services, you confirm that you have the legal authority and capacity to enter into a binding agreement.

If you are engaging ArtEstica on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

You agree to use the ArtEstica website lawfully and responsibly.

You must not:

• Use the website for illegal purposes
• Attempt unauthorized access to our systems
• Interfere with the website's functionality
• Introduce malicious software or harmful code
• Copy or exploit website content without authorization
• Misrepresent your identity
• Attempt to gain access to restricted areas
• Use automated systems in a manner that may damage or disrupt our website

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to our website where misuse is identified.

The use of our website does not automatically create a client relationship.

A professional client relationship may begin after services have been agreed upon through one or more of the following:

• Signed agreement
• Accepted proposal
• Approved quotation
• Confirmed scope of work
• Payment of a required invoice or deposit
• Written confirmation by ArtEstica

Each project may include separate terms relating to scope, timelines, pricing, deliverables, revisions, and responsibilities.

Where a separate written agreement exists, that agreement may take precedence over these general Terms where legally applicable.

Unless otherwise stated, quotations and proposals provided by ArtEstica are based on the information available at the time of preparation.

Changes to the project scope may result in:

• Additional charges
• Revised timelines
• Modified deliverables
• Updated requirements

A quotation or proposal does not guarantee that a project will begin until the relevant engagement has been formally accepted.

ArtEstica reserves the right to correct clerical, pricing, technical, or administrative errors in quotations or proposals.

Clients are responsible for providing accurate, complete, and timely information necessary for the successful completion of a project.

This may include:

• Content
• Images
• Brand assets
• Login credentials
• Technical information
• Access to platforms
• Feedback
• Approvals
• Legal information
• Third-party licenses

Delays in providing required materials or approvals may result in project delays.

ArtEstica shall not be responsible for delays caused by incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable, or late client-provided information.

Any estimated project timeline is provided in good faith.

Actual delivery dates may be affected by factors including:

• Scope changes
• Client feedback delays
• Delayed approvals
• Third-party services
• Technical issues
• Force majeure events
• Changes requested during development

ArtEstica will make reasonable efforts to meet agreed timelines but does not guarantee a specific completion date unless expressly stated in a written agreement.

Project pricing may include a defined number of revisions where specified.

Additional revisions, redesigns, changes in direction, or work outside the originally agreed scope may result in additional fees.

A scope change may include:

• New features
• Additional pages
• New design directions
• Major structural changes
• Additional integrations
• Additional services
• Work requested after approval of a previous stage

ArtEstica may provide an additional quotation before beginning work that falls outside the agreed scope.

Clients agree to pay all fees associated with the agreed services.

Payment requirements may include:

• Upfront deposits
• Milestone payments
• Recurring payments
• Final payments
• One-time project fees

Payment methods may include secure third-party payment providers such as Stripe, PayPal, or other payment systems approved by ArtEstica.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices must be paid according to the payment terms specified on the relevant invoice, proposal, or agreement.

Late or overdue payments may result in:

• Suspension of ongoing work
• Suspension of website maintenance
• Suspension of digital services
• Delayed delivery
• Restricted access to deliverables
• Additional administrative or recovery costs where legally permitted

ArtEstica reserves the right to withhold final deliverables until outstanding payments have been received in full.

Because many of our services involve professional time, creative work, planning, strategy, custom development, and allocated resources, payments may be non-refundable once work has begun, except where otherwise required by applicable law or expressly agreed in writing.

Deposits may be non-refundable unless otherwise stated in a separate agreement.

Refund requests will be reviewed based on the nature of the project, services already completed, resources allocated, and the applicable contractual terms.

Either party may terminate a project in accordance with the applicable project agreement.

Where a client cancels a project after work has started, the client may remain responsible for payment for:

• Work already completed
• Time already allocated
• Third-party expenses
• Non-refundable software or platform costs
• Additional committed project resources

ArtEstica reserves the right to terminate or suspend services where a client:

• Fails to make required payments
• Engages in abusive or inappropriate behavior
• Provides illegal or harmful materials
• Violates these Terms
• Requests unlawful services

All intellectual property rights remain with their respective owners.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, ArtEstica retains ownership of:

• Pre-existing materials
• Internal tools
• Processes
• Methodologies
• Frameworks
• Templates
• Concepts not selected by the client
• Reusable code
• Generic systems
• Proprietary assets

Upon full payment, the client may receive ownership or a license to use final deliverables according to the agreed project terms.

ArtEstica may retain the right to use its general knowledge, experience, methodologies, and non-confidential techniques developed during a project.

Clients confirm that they have the legal right to provide all materials submitted to ArtEstica.

This includes:

• Logos
• Images
• Videos
• Written content
• Trademarks
• Documents
• Software
• Third-party assets

The client is responsible for obtaining necessary licenses, permissions, and rights.

ArtEstica is not responsible for intellectual property claims arising from materials supplied or approved by the client.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, ArtEstica may display completed or publicly available work in its portfolio, website, case studies, social media, presentations, or promotional materials.

Where a project contains confidential information, we will make reasonable efforts to respect confidentiality obligations and agreed restrictions.

Some projects may involve third-party platforms, software, plugins, APIs, hosting providers, payment providers, or other services.

ArtEstica is not responsible for:

• Third-party outages

• API changes
• Account suspensions

• Security incidents caused by third parties
• Changes to third-party functionality

Clients may be responsible for third-party subscriptions, licenses, domains, hosting, software, or other recurring costs unless otherwise agreed.

Where ArtEstica provides SEO, advertising, social media, marketing, or related services, we may use professional strategies and industry best practices.

However, we do not guarantee:

• Specific search rankings
• Website traffic
• Leads
• Sales
• Revenue
• Advertising performance
• Social media growth
• Business results

Digital platforms, search engines, advertising systems, and algorithms are controlled by independent third parties and may change without notice.

While we aim to develop reliable and high-quality digital solutions, no website or digital system can be guaranteed to be completely free from technical issues, vulnerabilities, downtime, or third-party disruptions.

Clients remain responsible for maintaining appropriate backups, security procedures, passwords, and account access unless these responsibilities are expressly included within the agreed scope of service.

Both parties agree to treat confidential information shared during a professional engagement with reasonable care.

Confidential information does not generally include information that:

• Is publicly available
• Was already known without confidentiality obligations
• Is independently developed
• Must be disclosed by law

Where a separate confidentiality agreement is signed, that agreement will govern the handling of confidential information.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, ArtEstica shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or business-related losses.

This may include losses relating to:

• Lost profits
• Lost revenue
• Lost data
• Business interruption
• Loss of goodwill
• Missed opportunities
• Third-party service failures

Where liability cannot legally be excluded, ArtEstica's liability may be limited to the amount paid by the client for the specific services giving rise to the claim, subject to applicable law.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ArtEstica, its team members, contractors, and representatives from claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and reasonable expenses arising from:

• Your violation of these Terms
• Materials provided by you
• Your unlawful use of our services
• Your infringement of third-party rights
• False or misleading information provided by you

ArtEstica provides professional services and makes reasonable efforts to deliver work in accordance with the agreed scope.

However, business results can depend on many factors outside our control.

We do not guarantee specific financial, commercial, marketing, technical, or business outcomes unless explicitly guaranteed in a written agreement.

These may include:

• Third-party platform failures
• Other unforeseen events

ArtEstica may update these Terms from time to time.

The updated version will be published on our website with a revised “Last Updated” date.
