These terms apply to every CatalystHub project, including Standard builds, Specialist builds, and Care plans. By starting work with us — paying the deposit or accepting a written proposal — you agree to these terms.
1. What we deliver
Standard build (from US$500): A 5-page website on Astro + TinaCMS, delivered within 7 business days of the kickoff call, with one revision round. Includes mobile-first responsive design, WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility, semantic HTML, schema.org markup, and a documented handover sheet.
Specialist build (from US$1,500): Everything in Standard plus a vertical-specific template, industry compliance, integrations, up to 10 pages, and two revision rounds.
Care plans (from US$49/mo): Hosting, backups, security updates, monitoring, and a monthly report. Higher tiers include content updates and compliance monitoring.
2. Delivery and revisions
The 7-business-day delivery clock starts on the kickoff call and pauses when we’re waiting on you (content, approvals, feedback). You’ll always know which side the ball is on, in writing.
One revision round means one consolidated list of changes, delivered within 5 business days of receiving the staging URL. Additional revision rounds are billable: $200 for Standard, $400 for Specialist, quoted before any work starts.
3. Ownership
On launch day we hand over: the GitHub repository (you become owner), the domain registrar login, the Cloudflare account credentials, the TinaCMS editor login, and any third-party service logins (analytics, forms, payments). Documented on a single handover sheet.
You own your code, content, and brand assets. We retain the right to mention your project as a case study with your written sign-off.
4. Payment terms
Standard and Advanced builds: paid in full at kickoff. Specialist and Custom Shopify Theme builds may be split 50/50 (start / launch) on request.
Invoices are issued through Stripe, in your local currency. Card and bank transfer are accepted. Late payments accrue interest at 2% per annum above the standard commercial reference rate in your jurisdiction on the outstanding amount, charged daily.
Care plans are billed monthly in advance and can be cancelled with 14 days’ written notice.
5. Cancellation and missed delivery
Missed delivery window: On-time delivery is part of the contract. If we miss the 7-business-day delivery window for any reason on our side, we continue working at our own cost until the site is live — no further invoices. This commitment does not apply when delays are caused by you (delayed content, delayed feedback, or scope changes mid-build).
Pre-kickoff cancellation: If you cancel before we begin work, we return the deposit minus a $50 processing fee. After kickoff, deposits are non-refundable.
Care plan cancellation: Care plan months already started are non-refundable. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the next billing cycle following 14 days’ notice.
6. Scope changes
If you ask for something outside the agreed scope mid-build, we’ll quote it in writing first. Nothing is billed without your written go-ahead. Common scope changes (extra pages, custom integrations) have standard rates listed in the proposal.
7. Content and intellectual property
You warrant that you own — or have a licence for — every piece of content (text, images, video, fonts) you provide for the build. We retain copyright in our codebase patterns and the productized system itself; you receive a perpetual licence to use everything we produce specifically for your site.
8. Liability
We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, including loss of profits, business interruption, or third-party claims. Our maximum liability for any claim is the amount you paid us in the preceding 12 months. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have under the consumer-protection laws of your jurisdiction that cannot be excluded.
9. Jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which CatalystHub operates. Where a dispute cannot be resolved directly, both parties agree to work in good faith toward resolution before pursuing formal proceedings.
10. Changes
We may update these terms with reasonable notice. The version that applies to your project is the one in effect on the day you accepted the proposal or paid the deposit.
