Altering Design Work -CLIENT/USER may NOT
alter, resize, or change ANY of the graphic/design work
(including but not limited to; headers, buttons, logos, e-book covers, etc.) of
Designed by Lara without WRITTEN permission
from Lara Velez, owner of DesignedbyLara.com. We do not want our images
altered for many reasons, the most important being that our name is on
it and we want it to remain in the quality that WE designed it. Our
reputation and excellence is VERY important.
CLIENT/USER may not use any of the images in the work we provide for any
other purposes than what they were created for (including but not limited to;
print design, other websites, creating banners and buttons, etc.)
WRITTEN permission from Lara Velez,
owner of DesignedbyLara.com.
Also, these things may infringe on the designer of any images used
within a design.
If CLIENT/USER would like a resize, banner or button, or any alteration or
addition to a design, simply let us know. We offer these services for a
nominal fee. :)
Logo Design - If DesignedbyLara.com creates a logo
design for CLIENT/USER and CLIENT/USER uses this design including but not limited to; in
print, on any packaging, offline or online, a credit must be included in
a viewable place somewhere on the item or place that the logo resides. (ie.
logo designed by:
http://www.designedbylara.com) NOTE: It is
REQUIRED that CLIENT/USER contact Lara Velez, owner of DesignedbyLara.com and
let her know exactly where the logo will be and how you will credit her
designs.
All payments are due before work DBL begin. We do NOT add clients to
our schedule until payment is made. We will accept Pay Pal,
Personal Checks, and US Postal Money Orders. All payments must be
CLEARED before work will begin.
Refunds
NO refunds are provided once design process has begun.
Period.
If the design process has not begun
(meaning we have done NO work and
spent NO time on your project) and a refund is
plausible, you will receive your refund via snail mail OR
Pay Pal refund...OUR choice. The refund, IF
plausible will be issued within 90 days. It is DesignedbyLara.com's
discretion WHEN and IF refunds are
issued. Period.
Blog/Website Location and Display Policies
Since Designed by Lara does not design for just anyone and we reserve
the right to refuse services based on what we believe to be the type of
sites we want to be associated with, we REQUIRE to know
WHERE our designs will be. If you change the location,
you MUST let us know within 30 days or you will be in
breach of contract!
Also, you may NOT give away, redistribute, or sell
our designs to ANYONE without WRITTEN
permission. Period.
Furthermore, If you do not use a design we created, and/or you have
removed a design from the location you said it would be, and/or have not
let us know the new location for a period 90 days,we
reserve the right to RESELL the design.
We WILL seek legal justice if these matters are not
taken seriously.
Revisions
While we want to make our customers happy, we can not be held liable
for any service that we provide for any reason. We will take the time to
discuss your wishes and get it right the first time.
Designed By Lara will do up to ONE revision for each image purchased.
And, up to ONE revision for custom image, template, or web design.
Additional revisions are $5 each and up depending on what it entails.
Custom Blogs and Web Templates come with up to TWO minor revisions.
We will NOT revise the basic structure. Additional revisions cost more. We will inform you ahead of time what
the cost would be. (It is usually between $10-$50 depending on what
is required.)
Additionally, if we feel that we have done
all that we can to make you, the client happy and there seems no
reasonable way to provide you with what you desire, we reserve the right to stop the
process. Period. No refunds will be given.
The reason no refunds will be given is because we base our fees on the
amount of time we expect a certain project to take. If we are refusing
to continue working with you, you can be ASSURED that we have
already exceeded the time you paid for and have EARNED
what was paid.
Keep in mind, we work VERY hard to make our clients happy. You are free to
read our many testimonials, and visit the
sites of our past clients, and even contact them and personally ask them
what they think.
