In the case where Ireland Website Design provides stock imagery, it is up to the client to ensure that a licence has been purchased by Ireland Website Design to use the image(s).

It is the responsibility of the client to change that image before the website goes live. At all times it is the client’s responsibility to ensure that all text, graphics, photos, videos, designs, trademarks and other artwork used on the website have licences or permission from the right owner of such work. Ireland Website Design will take no liability from consequences that arise from the use of such material.

Payments must be made promptly based on the agreed schedule. Ireland Website Design reserves the right to remove any web design project from viewing on the internet until final payment is made. Ireland Website Design reserve the right to put the project or website on hold if a scheduled payment is not made.

This includes support, maintenance, marketing, hosting, domains and hosting of other websites owned by the client. When a payment that is due is outstanding, we will notify the customer by telephone or email.

In the case of collection proving necessary, the client agrees to pay all fees incurred by that process.

Please pay on time. All payments will be made in Euro funds unless agreed upon in writing by both parties. Ireland Website Design reserve the right to charge additional for any out of scope work or work that takes longer than expected. Ireland Website Design unless otherwise stated only allows for one master round of revision for any work created. Additional revisions will be charged at a fixed price per revision.

Completion Date

Ireland Website Design and the client must work together to complete the web design project in a timely manner. We agree to work diligently to complete the web design project within the agreed upon time frame. The project does not officially begin until the client has provided all material needed, after this Ireland Website Design will notify the client about planned dates of beginning of the project.

To ensure the project is kept on time, Ireland Website Design expects all feedback to be provided within 24 hours, that the client is available to meet to discuss the project, that the client’s availability allows us to access them every day and that client revisions are reasonable within the given time frame e.g. one chance to revise the website home page, one chance to revise the website content, one chance to review the website structure etc.

While working on a project, Ireland Website Design needs to estimate when to deliver the project. This estimate is based off of previous experience of working on similar projects. Occasionally, Ireland Website Design will underestimate the amount of work required in a project and therefore will not be able to meet an agreed deadline. In this case, a client agrees to hold harmless, protect and defend Ireland Website Design from any claim or suit arising from missing the agreed upon deadline. The client agrees that all deadlines, deliverable dates and time frames are estimates only.
