Opt Out

The client has the option to opt out of an agreement but will pay all incurred costs to date within 7 days.

Contracts and Service Agreement

Having a transparent and mutually agreed contract/agreement between Tweak and clients is at the core of all our relationships. This agreement can take a number of forms whether written on paper or email, detailed in a contract or PowerPoint, oral, implied or a combination of these. In practice, a slide proposal and an email chain between the client and agency are the tools most commonly used to document the agreement, which is binding. Once a retained agreement or project is started both parties have ‘accepted’ the terms of agreement by beginning work.

The fee estimates will be provided before any work is undertaken, based on the client brief provided, if the scope of work increases or decreases the resources needed on the project, tweak will notify you in advance to agree any possible extra costs or reduced charges

A PO should be provided to Tweak before we start work.

The client will be invoiced in 2 stages; 50% upon commissioning the project, and 50% on completion of the project.

It is the responsibility of the client to make sure all necessary information reaches Tweak at the appropriate time(s), and time spent requesting/sourcing information may be charged for.

Tweak will endeavour to respond to change requests in an agreed time frame.
 This applies to standard office hours Mon-Fri 9.30am –5.30pm. Whilst we are usually available outside office hours we cannot guarantee response times.

Notice Period

In the event either agency or client desires to terminate an existing Agreement or Retained Services, the party shall provide at least sixty (60) to ninety (90) days written notice, depending on length and terms of relationship prior to the termination date.

Who owns what?

Unused creative work or work that is developed during the process of the project belongs to us. (You own the final, approved designs and content that is paid for in full).

Source files and fonts are generally licensed to an agency and for that reason among others, we don’t hand over design files such as Photoshop documents or Illustrator files etc. You’re paying for the final, approved work which might be the print ready files for a brochure in a PDF format or the web design which will be the HTML.

Code that we’ve created from scratch which can be defined as an application or code that we’ve created where you could sell it for commercial benefit. Anything that requires custom work from scratch would have a separate contract agreed. Otherwise though as standard, we build websites in open systems and they are all yours once paid for.

All work, creatives, websites campaigns, trademarks, service marks, slogans, artwork, written materials, drawings, photographs, graphic materials, film, music, transcriptions, or other materials produced by Tweak are the property of Tweak until the client pays all fees and costs associated with creating and, where applicable, producing such work product.

As standard practice we will acknowledge that we built and designed a website with a statement and link in the website’s footer – “Website design and build by Tweak Marketing“.
