Terms of service

audemation is a sole-trader web development service based in London, United Kingdom (“I”, “me”). These terms apply to the free mockup offer, paid website builds, and monthly automation services. By requesting a mockup or commissioning work, you agree to them.

The mockup is genuinely free: no payment details, no obligation, and no follow-up chasing. A few ground rules so the offer stays sustainable:

• The mockup (its design, code, and assets) remains my property until you commission the real build. You may share it within your business to make a decision.
• You may not copy the mockup’s design or code, hand it to another developer to implement, or use it commercially without commissioning the build.
• I may show mockups I’ve made in my own portfolio. If you’d rather yours didn’t appear, tell me and I’ll remove it.
• Anything you send me to build the mockup (logos, text, photos) stays yours, and you confirm you have the right to share it.

• Scope, price, and timeline are agreed in writing (email is fine) before any paid work starts. The quote you accept is the price you pay; changes to scope are quoted separately before they’re built.
• Payment is 50% deposit to begin and 50% on delivery. Invoices are due within 7 days.
• Ownership of the finished site transfers to you on receipt of the final payment: design, code, and content produced for you are all included. Until then it remains mine.
• Third-party costs (domain names, hosting, paid services your site depends on) are yours and are billed by those providers directly unless we agree otherwise.
• Reasonable revisions within the agreed scope are included. “Reasonable” means refining what we agreed, not redesigning it.

• Each automation’s scope is agreed in writing before it goes live, including what it does and what it costs per month.
• Billing is monthly in advance.
• You can cancel any time with 30 days’ notice. No long-term contracts, no exit fees. On cancellation I’ll hand over or shut down the automation cleanly, whichever you prefer.

The advertised 20% discount for early clients is offered in exchange for a genuine public testimonial and permission to use the project as a named case study. If you later want the case study taken down, I’ll remove it, and the discount stays yours.

Projects run on time when content, feedback, and approvals arrive promptly. If a project stalls for more than 30 days waiting on your input, I may pause it and resume when you’re ready; deposits aren’t refundable for stalled projects, but they’re never forfeited: the work resumes where it stopped.

I build every site with professional care and skill, test it before delivery, and fix defects in the agreed scope at no charge. What I can’t promise is specific business outcomes: search rankings, traffic, or revenue depend on factors outside the build.

My total liability for any claim arising from the work is capped at the fees you actually paid for that work. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under English law (for example, for fraud).

I may update these terms from time to time; the version on this page applies, and material changes won’t apply retroactively to work already agreed. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
