The following terms and conditions apply to all design services provided by Industry Design Group to the Client.

1. Acceptance

It is not necessary for any Client to have signed an acceptance of these terms and conditions for them to apply. If a Client accepts a quote or service is commenced then the Client will be deemed to have satisfied themselves as to the terms applying and have accepted these terms and conditions in full. Rolling service agreements such as hosting, SEO and social media continue until the Client gives ninety (90) days notice in writing of cancellation. Please see 10. Termination Terms of Conditions.

Please read these terms and conditions carefully.

Any purchase or use of our services implies that you have read and accepted our terms and conditions.


2. Charges

Charges for services to be provided by Industry Design Group are defined in the project quotation that the Client receives via e-mail. Quotations are valid for a period of 7 days. Industry Design Group reserves the right to alter or decline to provide a quotation after expiry of the 7 days.
Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all website and other design services require an advance payment of 50% of the full project quotation total before the work is supplied to the Client for review. Once work has commenced in any format then deposits are not refundable under any circumstances.
A second charge of 50% is required upon completion of the work, prior to upload to the server or release of materials.


Payment for services is due by paypal or  wire transfer. Credit and debit cards may also be used under the Paypal merchant payment engine.

3. Client Review

Industry Design Group will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website during the design phase and once the overall website development is completed. At the completion of the project, such materials will be deemed to be accepted and approved unless the Client notifies Industry Design Group otherwise within 2 days of the date the materials are made available to the Client.

4. Turnaround Time and Content Control

Industry Design Group will install and publicly post or supply the Client's website by the date specified in the project proposal, or at date agreed with Client upon Industry Design Group receiving initial payment, unless a delay is specifically requested by the Client and agreed by Industry Design Group.
In return, the Client agrees to delegate a single individual as a primary contact to aid Industry Design Group with progressing the commission in a satisfactory and expedient manner.
During the project, Industry Design Group will require the Client to provide website content; text, images, movies and sound files

5. Failure to provide required website content:

Industry Design Group is a  business, to remain efficient we must ensure that work we have programmed is carried out at the scheduled time. On occasions we may have to reject offers for other work and enquiries to ensure that your work is completed at the time arranged.
This is why we ask that you provide all the required information in advance. On any occasion where progress cannot be made with your website because we have not been given the required information in the agreed time frame, and we are delayed as result, we reserve the right to impose a surcharge of up to 25%. If your project involves Search Engine Optimisation we need the text content for your site in advance so that the SEO can be planned and completed efficiently.
If you agree to provide us with the required information and subsequently fail to do within one week of project commencement we reserve the right to close the project and the balance remaining becomes payable immediately. Simply put, all the above condition says is do not give us the go ahead to start until you are ready to do so.

NOTE: Text content should be delivered as a Microsoft Word, email (or similar) document with the pages in the supplied document representing the content of the relevant pages on your website. These pages should have the same titles as the agreed website pages. Contact us if you need clarification on this.

6. Additional Expenses

Client agrees to reimburse Industry Design Group for any additional expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Examples would be purchase of special fonts, stock photography etc.

7. Web Browsers

Industry Design Group makes every effort to ensure websites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors. Websites are designed to work with the most popular current browsers (e.g. Firefox, Internet Explorer 8 & 9, Google Chrome, etc.). Client agrees that Industry Design Group cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems.
Industry Design Group cannot accept responsibility for web pages which do not display acceptably in new versions of browsers released after the website have been designed and handed over to the Client. As such, Industry Design Group reserves the right to quote for any work involved in changing the website design or website code for it to work with updated browser software.

8. Payment

Invoices are normally sent via email or paypal request, however, the Client may choose to receive hard copy invoices. Invoices are due upon receipt.

9. Default

Accounts unpaid seven (7) days after the date of invoice will be considered in default. If the Client in default maintains any information or files on Industry Design Group environment or any third party environment in the control of Industry Design Group. Industry Design Group will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web space. Industry Design Group is not responsible for any loss  incurred due to the removal of the service. Removal of such material does not relieve the Client of the obligation to pay any outstanding charges assessed to the Client's account.  Clients with accounts in default agree to pay Industry Design Group reasonable expenses, including legal fees and costs for collection by third-party agencies, incurred by Industry Design Group in enforcing these Terms and Conditions. Should any invoice contain a discount to the fee then if any invoice is outstanding we reserve the right to remove said discount following seven (7) days of the invoice being overdue.
