Privacy & Terms

Copyright

All work is carried out by Glory Design on the understanding that the client has agreed to our terms and conditions. Copyright is retained by Glory Design on all design work including words, pictures, ideas, visuals and illustrations unless specifically released in writing and after all costs have been settled.

​

If a choice of designs is presented and one is chosen for your project, only that solution is deemed to be given by us as fulfilling the contract. All other design work remain the property of Glory Design, unless specifically agreed in writing.

​

Project Acceptance

At the time of proposal, Glory Design will provide the customer with a written estimate or quotation by email or text.  A copy of the written estimate or quotation is to be signed and dated by the customer to indicate acceptance and should be returned to Glory Design.

​

Alternatively, the client may send an official purchase order in reply to the estimate or quotation which binds the client to accept our terms and conditions, or an email acknowledging acceptance of the quotation.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Glory Design Terms & Conditions are what govern the job, not any conditions on the customer’s purchase order.

​

Design Costs/charges

Design service charges are to be provided by Glory Design and set out in the written estimate or quotation that is provided to the customer. Once the customer’s signed acceptance of this estimate or quotation, will indicate an acceptance of the Glory Design Terms & Conditions, a non-refundable payment of either 25% or 50% of the quoted fee will become immediately due.

​

For new accounts, unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all design services require an advance payment of a minimum of 50% of the project quotation total before the work commences or is supplied to the Client for review. The remaining 50% of the project quotation total will be due upon completion of the work prior to upload to the server or release of materials.

​

Source Files

Proofs, other graphic files and print ready files will always be supplied as defined in the job scope or request.  Charges for design work do not cover the release of our copyright design source files, including but not restricted to INDD, PSD, AI, AEP, PNG, FLA or other source files or raw code; if the Client requires these files for transfer to an in-house or other designer, they will be subject to a separate quotation or ‘buy-out’ charge.

​

Payment

The customer will be provided with an Approval Form or Proof Email, and an Invoice prior to final publication. At this time the remainder of the amount due will become payable and the customer will also be required to sign and return the Approval Form or signify approval by email to Glory Design.

​

Any invoice queries must be submitted by email, in writing or by phone within 14 days of the invoice date.

Accounts which remain outstanding for 30 days after the date of invoice, will incur late payment interest charge at the Bank of England Base Rate plus 8% on the outstanding amount from the date due until the date of payment.

Payments may be made by online transfer, credit card (Visa, Mastercard) or Debit Card.

​

The customer agrees to fully indemnify and hold Glory Design free from harm in any and all claims resulting from the customer in not having obtained all the required copyright, and/or any other necessary permissions.
