Things we put in writing.
Each of these is in your contract, in plain English, on page one.
Copyright transfers to you on final payment. We never licence, resell, or retain any claim on your work.
The number in the proposal is the number on the invoice. If scope grows, we re-quote in writing before any additional work begins.
If your files are rejected at upload for a technical reason we caused, we fix it free — typically within 24 hours.
A mutual NDA is signed before any brief is shared. We never disclose client names, titles, or any project detail.
