Terms & Conditions

These draft terms describe how website projects and ongoing services are intended to work. A signed proposal or Client Website Agreement should record the project-specific details.

Last reviewed: 9 September 2026

Parties and agreement

“Marin Website Solutions”, “I” or “me” means the service operated by Gabriel Marin. “Client” means the person or organisation ordering work. The binding scope, price, timetable and parties should be recorded in a proposal or Client Website Agreement.

Services and scope

Current starting packages are Launch Website at £350 one-off, Growth Website at £450 one-off, and the optional Website Care Plan at £25 per month. The signed project document takes priority if it states a different agreed scope or price.

Additional pages, booking systems, customer portals, web applications, advanced integrations, complex databases and bespoke automation are outside a standard website package unless expressly included in writing.

Quotes, payment and tax

A quote is based on the information available when it is given. New requirements or work outside scope may require a revised quote. Payment stages, due dates, accepted methods, late-payment consequences, expenses and any VAT treatment must be confirmed in the proposal or agreement rather than assumed from these draft terms.

Card payments are processed on Stripe's website. Marin Website Solutions does not receive card details.

Client responsibilities

  • Provide accurate information, feedback, approvals and materials in reasonable time.
  • Confirm that supplied text, photographs, logos, fonts and other materials can lawfully be used.
  • Review spelling, facts, prices, legal wording, accessibility needs and regulated claims before launch.
  • Maintain necessary third-party accounts, permissions and subscription payments unless agreed otherwise.

Delays in receiving required client material or decisions may move the delivery timetable.

Design, revisions and approval

The number and type of revisions, project stages and acceptance method should be set out in writing. Requests that materially change the approved direction or scope may be quoted separately. Approval to launch confirms that the client has reviewed the supplied work, subject to any rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Content, intellectual property and portfolio use

Each party keeps ownership of material it already owned. Ownership or licence terms for the completed website, source files, design assets, written content and custom code must be stated in the signed agreement. Third-party software, fonts, stock assets and platforms remain subject to their own licences.

No client work should be shown publicly as portfolio work unless the applicable project agreement permits it. Confidential information will not be intentionally published.

Domains, hosting and third-party services

The agreement should name who registers and controls the domain, hosting, analytics, email, booking, payment and other accounts. Third-party availability, pricing, policies and changes are outside Marin Website Solutions' direct control. Credentials should be shared through an agreed secure method.

Care, support and changes

The Website Care Plan is optional. Its exact hosting, maintenance, backup, monitoring, update, edit, support, response and cancellation scope must be recorded in writing before it begins. Work not included may be quoted separately.

Suspension, cancellation and termination

Either party's cancellation rights, notice, payment for work already completed, handover and access arrangements should be recorded in the agreement. Service may be paused for non-payment, misuse, security risk or unlawful content where reasonable and lawful. See the Cancellation & Refund Policy for the current draft framework.

Warranties and liability

Work will be provided with reasonable care and skill. No guarantee is made about search rankings, visitor numbers, leads, sales, revenue, uninterrupted third-party services or compatibility with every future device or software change.

Any liability cap, excluded loss and indemnity wording must be agreed and professionally reviewed. Nothing in these terms excludes liability or legal rights that cannot lawfully be excluded, including applicable consumer rights.

Law, disputes and notices

The intended governing law is England and Wales, subject to any mandatory rights that apply. The parties should first try to resolve concerns directly. Formal notice details and jurisdiction wording require confirmation in the signed agreement.
