Websites by JAYpeg Creative
All websites that are designed and created by us will have a small signature displayed to the bottom bar of the website; ‘Website by JAYpeg Creative‘. We have the right to display our signature on all of our work unless otherwise stated and a written agreement has been made. 

Images & Content
It is the responsibility of the client to provide their own content for the website unless otherwise stated. If no images/text can be provided during the building of the website, JAYpeg Creative will use generic content and images to give the client a basic idea of how the website will look. It is therefore the responsibility of the client to make sure any content/images used on their website to advertise their services are their own and that they abide by any copyright laws. JAYpeg Creative holds no responsibility for the content used on the website.

A non-refundable deposit of 50% is required with all of our projects before any design work will be carried out.
Once a website has been designed and completed the final balance of payment is then due. There are no exceptions to this, i.e If the client decides they no longer want the site, as they have commissioned the work and paid a deposit they are still obliged to pay for the work that has been done. Non payment will result in legal action being taken if necessary. Once full payment is received for a website, it is assumed that the project has been completed to the clients satisfaction.

Where large applications are to be developed, it is the clients responsibility to provide a suitable testing environment which is identical to the final production environment.
The client is expected to test fully any application or programming relating to a site developed by JAYpeg Creative before being made generally available for use.
