Section 4. Domain Names, Hosting and Image Rights

  • The client(s) agree to take full and legal obligatory responsibility for the use of a third party domain name, hosting and any email services. The client(s) will therefore hold full responsibility, accountability and liability and accept that S6G are absolved of any responsibility and are absolved of any wrong doing, should a claim be presented against the client(s) purchased product(s). It is the duty of the client(s) to ensure the material they use on their own website, or any artwork they display; is used in the manner for which it is intended. S6G cannot and will not be held accountable for the actions of the client(s) after a product(s) has been exchanged.
  • The client(s) agrees to hand over FTP details (where applicable) to S6G for use in uploading any website / code / work, that is required in any given project.

Section 5. Projects / Orders, Websites & Graphic Design

  • Before a project can begin, the client(s) agrees to send a full written document via either email or postal mail to S6G detailing EXACTLY everything that the client(s) wishes to have*. This document will form the core outline for the project that S6G will work from**.
      *Please note that some orders may not be entirely / or at all possible, if the request(s) of the client(s) is not feasible / realistic. Further discussion and a change of outlines / objectives for a project(s), may have to occur between the client(s) prior to a project commencing in order to create a more realistic order. This order will then be confirmed via another written document written by the client(s) again detailing specifically what the client(s) wants. It is important that the client(s) and S6G have an understanding of what the client(s) want and what is actually possible. S6G will strive to complete the order as closely as possible to the client(s) demands / wishes; but the client(s) must understand there may be areas of discrepancies if there are unrealistic targets.

      **The document MUST be given in good time for S6G to be able to carry out the work in a realistic time frame. There may be some negotiation before hand as to how long a project(s) may take and again, the client(s) must understand that there may be discrepancies in the original quote, IF the project(s) takes longer than originally quoted due to any alterations the client(s) may have or any problems that may occur [See Section 5 (ii)]. Any additional working hours MUST be agreed by both the client(s) and S6G, in written format; but any flexibility in these hours must also be agreed by written documentation.

  • Alterations should be expected during the design and coding process, so where alterations are concerned, there will be an agreed set amount of time included in the original written order between the client(s) and S6G.

    Once work has begun on any given project and the agreed amount of alteration time has been used, whether that be on a website or any graphic design, any other alterations the client(s) may want MUST be requested in full written format. Before any extra hours of alterations are to be worked, S6G reserve the right to send a separate quotation (from the original project payment quote), requesting payment from the client(s) for the additional service*.

    There may also be additional alterations that were not initially included in the client(s) original order**.

      *Throughout the project and or design process, there should be regular contact between the client(s) and S6G regarding whether the work produced is meeting the targets / wishes of the client(s) original order. Should S6G and the client(s) not meet the request of the client(s) a review of target(s) may need to be discussed and reviewed; therefore resulting in a separate written agreement by email or postal mail sent by the client(s). Design and website design being a fluid process, means that some project(s) will not always be worked to EXACTLY what was originally ordered by the client(s). If this is applicable the client needs to understand that:
    • Any HTML page that is built from a client(s) design, may not match exactly the original design. This is due to the difference between the display in design software and the rendering of HTML code by various internet browsing software. S6G agrees to try and match the design as closely as is possible when building the code; but the client(s) must understand that it will not always be possible.
    • S6G will endeavour to create website(s) that are search engine friendly. However, S6G gives no guarantee that the site will become listed with any search engine or of certain search results. In no such instance therefore, shall S6G hold any responsibility, reliability or accountability for any changes in search engine rankings as a result of the code created by S6G.
    • Should there be an error in any type of coding during the project, the client(s) agrees to compromise with S6G in order to find the nearest possible solution.


      • **Should the client(s) desire alterations that are extra to the original project, whether this be add-ons, extra functions, extra designs or any other additional service(s) that S6G provide, this again must be requested in full by written documentation. S6G reserve the right to reject any additional extra alterations after the original order was placed.

  • On completion of any agreed project / design(s) between the client(s) and S6G, the client(s) agrees to sign the particular project / design(s) off as complete by written documentation.
  • S6G reserve the right to assign part, or whole of the client(s) project to subcontractors, if it is felt in the best interests of the project by S6G.
  • After full payment by the client(s) to S6G for the completion of a project and it’s hand-over; the client(s) agrees and assumes full responsibility to keep regular backups of their website and any software they or a third party have produced, should there be a failure of software or hardware. In the event of a loss of data, software, and or a part / entire project produced by S6G, the client(s) agrees that S6G carries no responsibility, accountability or liability for this loss. Therefore the client agrees to be invoiced for any further work that S6G may have to carry out, should the client(s) wish to use S6G’s services again.

Section 6. Web Browser Compatibility

  • S6G will try and ensure that the client(s) website is compatible with most, if not all the main Internet browsers. S6G will try to maximise the client(s) potential visits by making sure that the client(s) site works on Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer’s latest updates. The client(s) however, agrees that it may not be possible for the client(s) website to have full or any functionality with all browsers, due to the different compatibility issues and software variations with different operating systems. S6G therefore, have no responsibility, liability or accountability for any loss of visits, revenue or profits that may be experienced by the client(s), via loss of functionality on various web browsers.
  • Once payment has been received and all files have been handed over to the client(s), should the client(s) or a third party make any changes to the website, which results in compatibility, functionality and or display issues with any internet browser, then should the client(s) wish to use S6G’s services again, they client(s) agrees to be invoiced for any further work with a separate quote.

Section 7. Payment

  • All prices presented on the www.slick6graphics.com quote calculator are subject to change, as the calculator is a rough guide for price quoting.
  • ii) For all work / project(s) / order(s), presented to S6G, a minimum 50% of the initial invoice quotation is required to be paid in full by the client(s) as a deposit for S6G’s services. All invoices must be paid within 7 days of the invoice date. After that the invoice shall be declared null and void and no work shall be carried out by S6G. Where an invoice has been paid in full by the client(s), S6G shall begin work with immediate effect on the order, unless otherwise agreed at S6G’s discretion; which must be in written consent*.
      *The client(s) has the option to either pay S6G in 2 split payments or pay S6G the cost of the invoice in full. If the client(s) should choose to pay in 2 payments, then the first payment MUST be paid before work commences, with a minimum of 50% of the final cost paid to S6G.

S6G also retain full intellectual property rights from their own work.
  • Additional extras / add-ons, requested by the client(s) are subject to additional quotation(s) and invoice(s). S6G reserve the right to reject such requests, if they feel it is not within the best interests of the project or for whatever reason they deem fit.

If it is found that the client(s) has been misleading in any way in regards to payment or in constant breach of contractual payment agreement (these terms and conditions - with relevant written proof), then S6G reserve the right to terminate any project / order, whilst retaining the right to be paid in full for the work carrier out up to that point in time.
  • All invoices from S6G will be submitted by email, unless specified by S6G or at S6G’s discretion.
  • [Regarding 2 split payments] Should work from S6G be displayed on the internet for the client(s), and the client(s) be in arrears of payment for the final instalment, then S6G reserve the right to withdraw the work from the internet until the client(s) has paid S6G in full.
