Engagements for design, development, or ongoing services are governed by a separate client agreement that addresses payment terms, project scope, revision rounds, cancellation, and delivery timelines. These Terms and Conditions apply to Site usage and do not supersede any signed client agreement.
10. Payment Terms
Unless otherwise specified in a client agreement, standard payment terms are 50% deposit before work begins and 50% upon project completion before site launch. Care plan fees are billed monthly and are due on the first of each month. Late payments may result in suspension of services.
