Being open and straightforward is an important value for me and I’d like to take this with me in every project. These terms and conditions are not here to make things complicated, so if you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.
Terms & Conditions
The following Terms and Conditions of Service apply to all products and services provided by Kim of Tiny Leap. These terms and conditions can be read at any time on the Tiny Leap website.
All work is carried out by Kim on the understanding that the client has agreed to these terms and conditions.
Copyright and intellectual property rights is retained by Kim on all design work unless specifically released in writing. This means that concepts and designs delivered by Kim are not allowed to be sold, modified, or shared with third parties. By completing the project, you gain the right to use the delivered product.
Start and fees
At the start of the project, Kim will provide the customer with a written estimate or quotation. By agreeing to start the project you agree with the stated price and these terms and conditions. An acknowledgement via email means acceptance of the quotation.
In consideration of Kim providing the services, you must pay all the fees, charges and costs set out in the quote. Any additional costs, materials or services, that may present themselves during the project will be added to the final invoice. You will be notified about additional fees before the start of this extra work.
Before the start of the project a non-refundable payment is required. This is a payment of minimum fifty percent of the total project quotation, unless agreed upon otherwise. By paying this deposit you also acknowledge reading and accepting the terms and conditions and the quotation. The remaining amount of the total invoice is due upon completion of the work, prior to release of any final materials.
Working on the project
The client agrees to supply and allow Kim all necessary materials and accesses to documents, systems and other locations, that are needed for the completion of the project, and supply them in a timely manner.
Any indication given by Kim of a project’s duration is to be considered by the customer to be an estimation. Kim or Tiny Leap cannot be held responsible for any project over-runs, whatever the cause.
For every type of project a one time alteration, of reasonable changes, is included, unless agreed upon and written out before the project. Changes need to be delivered within five days. The client agrees that changes required over the estimated work or in addition of the agreed scope, or where the client makes changes to the supplied resources, will be liable to a separate charge of €120,- per hour, charged in 15 minute intervals. Kim will notify the client before starting on extra work, when the client says to continue with making these changes the client accepts the add-on charge.
The client also agrees that Kim holds no responsibility for any amendments made by any third party, before or after a design is published.
Kim will deliver files that are required for the project and agreed upon before the start of the project. At any time during or after the project no source files will be delivered. If the client requires these files for transfer to someone else, client will be subjected to a separate quotation or ‘buy-out’ charge.
Payment
The customer will be provided with a final invoice prior to the completion of the project. At this time the remainder of the amount due will become payable. When the remainder amount is received the products will be handed over.
Project payments are due within 30 days. Invoices that remain unpaid for 30 days after the date of the invoice, will incure late payment interest charge of 5% from the date due until the date of payment. Monthly installment are due within 7 days of the invoice date. Invoices that remain unpaid for 7 days after the date of the invoice, will incure late payment interest charge of 5% from the date due until the date of payment.
