Terms and Conditions
Last updated: 05 may 2026
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Qodran Studio website at Qodran.com and any design, development, or branding services we provide ("Services").
By visiting our website or hiring us for a project, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the website or engage our services.
If anything here is unclear, email us at hello@qodran.com and we'll be happy to walk you through it.
1. About these Terms
These Terms form a legal agreement between you (the "Client" or "you") and Qodran Studio (we, us, our).
For each project we work on together, we'll also sign a separate proposal or statement of work that lists the specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and price. Where the proposal and these Terms conflict, the proposal controls for that specific project.
2. Who we are
Qodran Studio is a design and development studio. We help startups, SaaS companies, and AI founders build websites and brand identities. We operate remotely, working with clients around the world.
3. Our services
We offer:
Website design — custom layouts, copy, motion, and interactions
Web development — Framer no-code builds and custom code (e.g., Next.js)
Branding — logos, color systems, type systems, and brand guidelines
Post-launch support — included for the first month after launch (see Section 12)
The exact scope of any engagement is defined in the proposal we agree on before starting.
4. How a project starts
A typical project starts like this:
You contact us and book a free 15-minute call.
We discuss your goals and scope.
We send you a written proposal with deliverables, timeline, and price.
You sign the proposal and pay the deposit (see Section 6).
We start work.
A binding agreement only forms once you sign the proposal and pay the deposit.
5. Quotes and proposals
Quotes are valid for 30 days from the date we send them, unless we say otherwise in writing. Prices and timelines may change if you request work beyond the agreed scope. Any out-of-scope work will be quoted separately and is subject to your written approval before we begin.
6. Payment terms
Unless your proposal says otherwise:
A 50% deposit is required before we start work. The deposit is non-refundable once work has begun.
The remaining 50% is due upon project completion, before we hand over final files or push the site live.
Payments are processed via [Contra / PayPal / bank transfer / your processor].
Invoices are due within 7 days of issuance.
Late payments may incur a fee of [1.5%] per month or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is lower. We reserve the right to pause work on overdue accounts.
Prices are in [USD] unless otherwise stated. You're responsible for any applicable taxes, duties, or transfer fees.
7. Project timelines
We do our best to ship on the timeline agreed in the proposal — most projects launch in 1–2 weeks. Timelines depend on:
You providing content, feedback, and approvals on time
The scope staying within what was agreed
No major external blockers (third-party integrations, hosting issues, etc.)
If delays on your side push the project back, we may adjust the timeline accordingly. We'll always communicate clearly when this happens.
8. Revisions
We offer unlimited revisions within the agreed project scope. "Unlimited" means we'll keep refining the work until you're satisfied — within the scope defined in the proposal.
Major changes to direction, scope, or deliverables after the work has been approved (for example, redesigning an entire page from scratch after sign-off) are considered out of scope and will be quoted separately.
9. Client responsibilities
To do our best work, we need the following from you:
Timely feedback (typically within 2 business days unless we agree otherwise)
All necessary content (copy, photos, brand assets) — or written permission for us to create them
Access to any platforms, accounts, or tools required (hosting, domain, fonts, etc.)
Honest and prompt communication
Delays in any of the above may extend timelines and are not our responsibility.
You also confirm that any materials you provide (logos, photos, copy, etc.) are owned by you or properly licensed, and that we have the right to use them in your project.
10. Intellectual property
Our pre-existing materials. We may use proprietary tools, templates, components, or methodologies we've developed before or during your project. These remain ours, and we grant you a perpetual non-exclusive license to use them as part of your final delivered work.
Final deliverables. Once your project is fully paid for, you own the final deliverables produced specifically for your project (website code, design files, brand assets, etc.) — except for anything covered by a third-party license (fonts, stock photos, plugins). Until final payment is received, all work remains our property.
Third-party assets. Some elements of your project may use third-party assets (fonts, plugins, illustrations, libraries). These are licensed under their respective licenses and not transferred to you outright.
Portfolio rights. We reserve the right to display the work we did for you in our portfolio, case studies, social media, and marketing — unless you ask us in writing not to.
11. Confidentiality
We treat your confidential information (business plans, unreleased products, internal data, etc.) as confidential. We won't share it externally without your permission, except where required by law.
If you need a separate non-disclosure agreement (NDA), we're happy to sign one — let us know before we start.
12. After-launch support
Every project includes 1 month of free support starting from the launch date. This covers:
Bug fixes
Minor adjustments to existing pages or assets
Help using the site or brand assets
It does not cover:
New features or pages
Major redesigns
Content updates beyond minor edits
Third-party platform issues outside our control
For ongoing work beyond the free support period, we offer retainer plans — get in touch and we'll quote one.
13. Cancellation and refunds
By you (the client): You may cancel a project at any time by writing to us. If you cancel:
The deposit is non-refundable.
You will be invoiced for any work completed up to the cancellation date, beyond what the deposit covers.
Any deliverables completed and paid for are yours, subject to Section 10.
By us: We reserve the right to end an engagement if a client materially breaches these Terms, fails to pay, behaves abusively, or makes the project impossible to deliver. In that case, you'll be invoiced for all work completed up to that point.
Refunds beyond the above are at our discretion and granted on a case-by-case basis. We don't offer refunds on projects already completed and delivered.
14. Warranties and disclaimers
We provide our services with reasonable skill and care. We will do our best to deliver work that's accurate, functional, and meets the agreed scope.
That said, our services and our website are provided "as is" and "as available." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all other warranties, including:
That the website or services will be uninterrupted or error-free
That any specific business outcome (revenue, traffic, rankings, conversion) will result
Implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose
We do our best to make sites that load fast, rank well, and convert visitors — but we can't guarantee specific results.
15. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities — arising out of or related to our services or these Terms.
Our total liability to you for any claim is limited to the total amount you paid us for the specific project that gave rise to the claim, in the 6 months preceding the claim.
Some jurisdictions don't allow these limitations, so they may not fully apply to you.
16. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, or costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:
Content, materials, or instructions you provided to us
Your use of the deliverables in violation of any law or third-party rights
Your breach of these Terms
17. Third-party services
Your project may integrate with or depend on third-party services (hosting, fonts, plugins, payment processors, analytics tools, etc.). We don't control those services and aren't responsible for their availability, performance, or terms.
You are responsible for reviewing and accepting the terms of any third-party services we set up on your behalf.
18. Use of our website
When using Qodran.com, you agree not to:
Copy, reproduce, or distribute our content (text, images, videos, designs) without permission
Reverse-engineer or scrape the site
Submit false, misleading, or harmful information through our forms
Attempt to disrupt or compromise the site's security or availability
All content on our website — including text, images, designs, code, and logos — is owned by us or licensed to us, and is protected by copyright and other laws.
19. Termination
These Terms apply for as long as you use our website or engage our services. We may suspend or terminate your access to the website at any time if you breach these Terms.
For client engagements, see Section 13 (Cancellation and refunds).
20. Force majeure
Neither party is liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond reasonable control — including natural disasters, war, pandemics, government actions, internet outages, or major third-party service failures. The affected party will notify the other as soon as reasonably possible and resume performance once the event has passed.
