Standard Terms & Conditions

These Standard Terms and Conditions provide the basis for a good working relationship between Ubertor Marketing Design Services (“Ubertor”) and you (the “Client”). These terms form an integral part of the agreement between Ubertor and the Client.

Copyright and Ownership

1. Except for the retained rights described in the paragraph below, all services provided and all materials Ubertor produces on your behalf will become your property upon full payment of our invoices.
2. Ubertor retains the right to:
   1. use work produced for the Client as part of its portfolio materials in both its online and offline portfolios;
   2. add your firm to our client list; and
   3. use your work in design competitions, publications, exhibitions, or other promotional purposes.
3. Any material or ideas prepared or submitted to you that you choose not to produce or for which you have not paid our invoices, within 60 days of submission to you, will remain Ubertor’s property (regardless of whether the physical embodiment of creative work is in your possession in the form of copy, artwork, plates, recordings, films, tapes, etc.) and may be submitted to other clients for their use, provided that such submission or use does not involve the release of any confidential information regarding your business or methods of operation.

Authority

4. The Client and Ubertor each represent that they have full power and authority to enter into this agreement and that this agreement is binding upon the Client and Ubertor, and enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Entire Agreement

5. This agreement represents the entire agreement between the Client and Ubertor, and may only be changed or modified in writing and with the approval of both parties.

Assignment

6. Neither the Client nor Ubertor may assign or transfer their interest in this agreement without the written consent of the other.

Timelines

7. Schedules or time estimates are subject to change upon notification in writing by either party. Unless otherwise stated, the amount of written notice to be given by either party shall be two weeks.

Disbursements

8. In addition to our fees, you agree to pay either Ubertor or the provider directly for third party charges we incur to complete the projects defined under Marketing Services. Third party charges will be treated as disbursements and will be billed separately.

Fees & Alterations

9. Any revisions, additions, or alterations to the project modifying the terms of the agreement as the Services to be performed and not included in any fee specified, shall be billed as additional services. Such additional services shall include, but shall not be limited to, changes in the extent of work, changes in the complexity of any elements of the project, and any changes made after approval has been given for a specific stage of design, documentation, or preparation of artwork.

Rushed or Prolonged Work

10. Any work required in advance of an agreed schedule or timetable, any shortening of the contract period, or additional fees and expenses incurred during a project due to Client delays or extensions shall be charged and paid for at an additional rate of 50% of Ubertor’s hourly rate.

Client Approval

11. The Client will appoint a single representative of the Client with full authority to provide necessary information required by Ubertor and to provide approvals.
12. The Client will be required to proofread and approve all elements of final designs. Approval must be provided before production can continue and artwork is released. Corrections, if required, will be identified on proofs, artwork, facsimiles, or digital proofs and submitted for Ubertor to revise and resubmit for client approval. Final approval is required on every project and must be marked “Approved” with the name or initials of the individual who is authorized by the Client to approve artwork for release and production.
13. Email authorization from you will constitute authorization and approval to carry out work defined in the Marketing Services.

Quality of Source Materials Provided by the Client

14. Additional charges will apply when materials are submitted by the Client in a form that prevents them from being readily used and applied at recognized professional standards. An example would be to recreate a low-resolution logo image file into a vector file.

Production

15. In those instances where the Client assumes responsibility for production, printed proofs, copies, prototypes and mock-ups must be approved by Ubertor prior to use. Ubertor shall be available at reasonable times to provide advice during the production period and for approval of minor modifications of the project (hourly rates will apply).
16. When Ubertor is engaged in a supervisory function and assumes responsibility for production on behalf of the Client, the Client agrees to abide by the decisions made by Ubertor.

Samples and Copies

20. The Client may provide Ubertor with a number of samples or photographs of each printed or manufactured design. These samples will represent the highest quality of work produced.

22. This agreement may be terminated by any reason by either the Client or Ubertor, if a written notification is provided within 30 days.

Indemnity

The Client will provide accurate and complete information and materials to Ubertor, and warrants and guarantees that all materials are owned by the Client or that the Client has all necessary rights (including copyright and waiver or moral rights) in such materials, to allow Ubertor to use them for the project.
26. We will use our reasonable best efforts to guard against any loss to you caused by the failure of media, suppliers, or others to perform in accordance with their commitments, but we will not be responsible for any such loss or failure on their part, or any destruction or unauthorized use by others of your property.

28. Ubertor will not be responsible for delays in delivery caused by acts of God, strikes, fires, floods, or any other similar circumstances beyond Ubertor’s control.
