Terms of Service

Last updated: May 6, 2026

These Terms of Service govern your use of williamsstudio.co and any services provided by Williams Studio ("we," "us," or "our"). By using our website or engaging our services, you agree to these terms.

1. Services

Williams Studio provides web design, web development, and related digital services to clients. The specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and pricing for each project are outlined in a separate written agreement or proposal provided before work begins.

2. Payment Terms

• A deposit (typically 50%) is required before work begins on any project
• Remaining balance is due upon project completion and before final files or site transfer
• Monthly retainer services are billed at the start of each month
• Invoices not paid within 14 days may result in a pause of services
• All payments are non-refundable once work has commenced, unless otherwise agreed in writing

3. Client Responsibilities

You agree to:

• Provide accurate information, content, and materials needed to complete the project
• Respond to questions and review requests in a timely manner
• Ensure you have the legal right to use any content, images, or materials you provide
• Provide feedback within agreed review periods

Delays caused by late client responses may affect project timelines and are not the responsibility of Williams Studio.

4. Intellectual Property

Upon receipt of full payment, you own the final website design and content created specifically for your project. Williams Studio retains the right to display the completed work in our portfolio unless you request otherwise in writing.

We retain ownership of any tools, frameworks, templates, or code libraries we use that are not created specifically for your project.

5. Revisions

Each project includes a defined number of revision rounds as specified in your project agreement. Additional revisions beyond the agreed scope may be billed at our standard hourly rate.

6. Third-Party Services

We may recommend or use third-party tools, platforms, or services (e.g., Netlify, Google Fonts, form providers) as part of your project. You are responsible for any costs associated with third-party services required to maintain or operate your website after delivery.

7. Limitation of Liability

Williams Studio is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of our services or your website. Our total liability for any claim related to a project shall not exceed the total amount paid for that project.

We are not responsible for downtime, data loss, or security issues caused by third-party hosting providers or services.

8. Warranty

We warrant that the work we deliver will function as described and be free of known defects at the time of delivery. We will fix any bugs or issues that arise within 30 days of launch at no additional charge, provided they are related to our original work.

We do not warrant that the website will be free of all errors, or that it will meet every browser or device configuration.

9. Termination

Either party may terminate a project with written notice. If you terminate a project after work has begun, you are responsible for payment for all work completed up to the termination date. Williams Studio reserves the right to terminate a project if a client is abusive, unresponsive for more than 30 days, or fails to make required payments.

10. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any sensitive business information shared during the project. This does not apply to information that is publicly available or that either party is required to disclose by law.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Yolo County, California.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a revised date. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance.
