Terms & Conditions
Last updated: April 2026 · Northline Studio, Webster, MA
By engaging Northline Studio for web design or maintenance services — including via our online checkout — you agree to the following terms. Please read them carefully.
1. Services
Northline Studio ("we", "us", "our") provides web design, web development, and ongoing website maintenance services to clients ("you", "your"). The specific scope of work, deliverables, and timeline for each project are agreed upon prior to commencement and outlined in any proposal or invoice issued by Northline Studio.
2. Payment
Full payment or the agreed deposit is due before project work begins unless otherwise stated in writing. All payments are processed securely via Stripe. Prices are listed in US dollars. Northline Studio reserves the right to pause or withhold delivery of work until outstanding balances are settled. Monthly care plan payments are billed automatically on a recurring basis and may be cancelled at any time.
3. Revisions
Each project tier includes a defined number of revision rounds as stated in the package details. A revision is defined as a reasonable set of changes to existing work — not a redesign or change in project scope. Additional revisions beyond the included rounds may be billed at an hourly rate, communicated in advance.
4. Client Responsibilities
You agree to provide all required content (text, images, logos, brand assets) in a timely manner. Delays caused by missing content or unresponsiveness may affect the project timeline. You are responsible for ensuring that any content provided does not infringe on third-party intellectual property rights.
5. Ownership & Intellectual Property
Upon receipt of full payment, you receive full ownership of the final delivered website and its custom code. Northline Studio retains the right to display completed work in its portfolio. Third-party assets (fonts, stock images, plugins, frameworks) remain subject to their respective licenses.
6. Care Plans
Monthly care plan subscriptions are month-to-month with no long-term contract. You may cancel at any time by notifying us via email before your next billing date. Care plan services are limited to the scope described in each plan tier. Northline Studio is not liable for third-party service outages (hosting, DNS, domain registrars).
7. Limitation of Liability
Northline Studio shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the use of, or inability to use, services or delivered work. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific project or service giving rise to the claim.
8. Termination
Either party may terminate a project engagement with written notice. If you terminate a project after work has begun, you are responsible for payment of work completed to date. Northline Studio reserves the right to terminate an engagement if project terms are not upheld.
9. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, USA. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Worcester County, Massachusetts.
10. Changes to These Terms
Northline Studio may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. We will make reasonable efforts to notify active clients of material changes.
