For Websites for Others services contact us by e-mail.

2.1 The client hereby retains the consultant to internet services, design and develop, and the consultant hereby agrees to design and develop, a hypertext (HTML) website (hereinafter referred to as "website", “site” or “web pages”) and make it available on the internet. The client, and not the consultant, is solely responsible for all website content. The services provided also include:

  • Free initial advertising on search engines
  • Layout creation
  • Tests and adjustments necessary upon implementing the website

3.1 The consultant will develop the web pages for the client according to the proposal in artedesign.us, in accordance with the links provided by the consultant. Modifications in the pages may be performed according to the needs of the client during the development period.
Throughout the development period a website preview screen will be presented. This screen may have its layout changed up to 3 times, apart from colors, fonts and shapes. After this screen is approved, only its HTML content can be modified (text and diagramming), but not the graphic content (background, transparent pictures, buttons, animations, etc.). In case of modifications, the set up fee will be increased by 30% for each new layout or modification presented. Besides, the delivery date will be delayed according to modifications requested. After the programming is started, the content of each page can be modified no more than twice (start – 1st correction – 2nd correction and final). If more modifications besides these ones are made necessary, they will be charged apart from the value previously agreed, according to the amount of pages versus the cost of each one in relation to the value of the website. Every single modification must be sent by dated email or fax, except for content images of the Client. Modifications requested by phone will not be accepted in any case. The Client is not allowed to advertise on the media as a way of anticipating the delivery schedule of the website, in which case the Client will have its website published incompletely and hence will be liable to pay the Consultant all the financial obligations herein. The Consultant has the obligation to deliver the complete website within the schedule.
3.2. The Client is solely responsible for supplying all the material concerning the content of the web pages (texts, images, sound and video) necessary for their development within 10 days as of the date of this contract. After the material is delivered, the substitution or addition of content to the material will not be accepted. In case the delivery of the material within the deadline set herein cannot be met, the website development deadline will be put off for the number of days of delay.
3.3 Based on its sole criteria, the Consultant is allowed to change the duration of this contract if the supply of the information to be published on the web pages by the Consultantis considered deficient or compromises the development time given by the Client.
The Consultant is granted the sole right to modify and change the web pages as long as this contract is valid. In case the web pages need to undergo changes concerning inclusion of the programs Flash, DHTML, Java, CGI (except for forms) and/or other services not provided by the Consultant, the Client must inform the Consultant of the changes at least two days before and they will be performed (or not, based on the Consultant’s criteria) by the Consultant.
3.4 In case of additional, unexpected requests, both parties will set values and deadlines in agreement.

4.1 The Client will pay the Consultant the value set in the beginning of this document or the value corrected due to overtime work.
4.2 The payment will be carried out by personal check in the name of the Consultant, direct deposit, via Paypal or cash.
4.3 Occasional adjustments in the values of this service agreement, due to modifications requested by the Client and not established at the moment this contract was signed, shall be communicated to the Consultant no later than 5 days prior to the payment (or next installment) date, replacing the values described in this contract.
