1. INTRODUCTION – The word “Designer” in these terms refers to me, the designer – Brianna Reed (Nerdette Designs LLC) – and the word “Client” refers to you. The word “Agreement” refers to the Creative Services Agreement terms that you are currently reading.

2. PAYMENT – Project quote will be provided via email. All invoices will be generated in Paypal by the Designer and paid via Paypal. Invoices will be billed and sent to the Client’s email address, which shall be provided through the order form.

3. PAYMENT DISCLAIMER – Project work does not begin until the Designer receives the down payment, and final source files will not be sent to the client until after the final payment is made. Final payment should be paid within 30 days that the final payment invoice is sent. If the final payment invoice is not paid within 30 days, an additional 20% late fee will be added to the total of the final payment invoice. If the final payment invoice is not paid within 60 days, legal action may need to be taken, via use of an attorney or a collections agency. If hiring an attorney or collection agency is necessary to collect an invoice, all legal fees will be charged to the Client in addition to the late invoice.

4. REFUND POLICY – Clients may only request a refund from the Designer if the project has been canceled before design work begins. If design work has already begun, then the payment is non-refundable. All refunds will be processed within 30 days.

5. PRODUCTION SCHEDULE – Production schedule and deadlines will be discussed with the Client via email.

6. DEADLINE TERMS – The Designer shall not incur any liability or penalty for delays in the completion of the project due to actions or negligence of the Client (such as delays in communication, via email, phone, or otherwise), unusual transportation delays, unforeseen illness or injury, death of a loved one, or external forces beyond the control of the Designer (such as a computer breaking, a house fire, etc). If such event(s) occur, it shall entitle the Designer to extend the completion/delivery date, by the time equivalent to the period of such delay. Any delays should be reported to the Client as timely as possible.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY – During the course of this Agreement, it may be necessary for the Client to share proprietary information, including trade secrets, industry knowledge, and other confidential information, to the Designer in order for the Designer to complete the services and deliverables in their final form. All correspondence and documents provided will be treated as confidential between the Client and the Designer, unless written consent has been granted by both parties involved.
