Effective Date: September 21, 2026
Welcome to Creative Republic.
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Creative Republic website and the relationship between you and Creative Republic when you request or purchase our services.
By accessing our website, submitting an inquiry, approving a proposal, or engaging Creative Republic for services, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree with them, please do not use our website or services.
1. About Creative Republic
Creative Republic provides creative and digital services, including:
- Branding and visual identity
- Website design and development
- Digital marketing
- Ecommerce solutions
- Creative strategy and related services
Specific services, deliverables, timelines, fees, and requirements may vary by project and will be outlined in the applicable proposal, quotation, statement of work, or service agreement.
Where a signed agreement contains terms that conflict with these Terms & Conditions, the signed agreement will generally control for that specific project.
2. Project Scope
Before beginning a project, Creative Republic may provide a proposal, quotation, scope of work, or project agreement describing the services to be provided.
The agreed scope may include:
- Project objectives
- Deliverables
- Number and type of concepts
- Revision rounds
- Estimated timeline
- Fees and payment schedule
- Required client materials
- Technical requirements
- Additional project conditions
Work outside the agreed scope may require additional fees, time, or a separate agreement.
We believe in keeping things clear from the start. Nobody enjoys discovering halfway through a website project that “just one tiny change” somehow means rebuilding the entire internet.
3. Client Responsibilities
To keep a project moving, clients are responsible for providing accurate information, feedback, approvals, content, credentials, and other materials reasonably required for the project.
The client is responsible for ensuring that any materials supplied to Creative Republic, including text, photographs, logos, trademarks, images, videos, data, and other content, may legally be used for the project.
Delays caused by missing information, delayed approvals, unavailable assets, or changes in direction may affect the project timeline.
4. Communication and Approvals
Creative Republic may communicate with clients through email, messaging platforms, project-management tools, video calls, or other agreed communication channels.
Client approvals may be given electronically unless otherwise agreed.
Once a deliverable has been approved, subsequent changes may be treated as additional revisions or additional scope.
Clients should carefully review deliverables before providing final approval. Creative Republic should not be expected to discover every typo humanity has ever typed.
5. Revisions
Revision limits, where applicable, will be specified in the applicable proposal or project agreement.
A revision means a reasonable change to an existing concept or deliverable. A completely new direction, concept, strategy, or scope of work may be considered additional work.
Projects that include unlimited revisions are still subject to the agreed project scope. Unlimited revisions do not mean unlimited reinvention of the project.
6. Fees and Payments
Project fees and payment schedules will be communicated before work begins.
Unless otherwise agreed:
- Deposits or initial payments may be required before work begins.
- Remaining balances must be paid according to the agreed payment schedule.
- Work may be paused when an invoice becomes overdue.
- Additional work outside the approved scope may be billed separately.
- Third-party costs may be charged separately where applicable.
Creative Republic is not obligated to release final deliverables, source files, credentials, or transferable assets until all amounts due for the applicable project have been paid in full.
7. Additional Services and Expenses
Certain projects may require third-party products or services, including:
- Hosting
- Domains
- Premium fonts
- Stock assets
- Plugins
- Software licenses
- Advertising platforms
- Payment gateways
- Third-party integrations
Unless specifically included in the project scope, these costs are the client’s responsibility.
Creative Republic is not responsible for pricing changes, outages, policy changes, or failures caused by third-party providers.
8. Timelines and Delays
Creative Republic will make reasonable efforts to meet agreed project timelines.
Estimated timelines may change when a project is affected by:
- Delayed client feedback
- Missing content or assets
- Scope changes
- Additional revisions
- Third-party dependencies
- Technical issues
- Events outside reasonable control
Where delays occur, Creative Republic will communicate material changes to the project timeline when reasonably possible.
9. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated in the applicable agreement, ownership of final approved creative deliverables will transfer to the client after full payment has been received.
The transfer may include applicable final artwork, website designs, brand assets, or other project deliverables specifically identified for transfer.
Creative Republic retains ownership of:
- Internal working files
- Unused concepts
- Rejected concepts
- Drafts
- Internal methodologies
- Processes
- Templates
- Reusable systems
- Pre-existing intellectual property
- Third-party licensed materials
Transfer of final work does not automatically transfer third-party licenses or intellectual property belonging to another party.
10. Source and Editable Files
Editable or source files are provided only when specifically included in the project agreement.
A client receiving final exported files does not automatically receive every internal working file used during production.
Where source files are included, delivery will occur after the applicable project balance has been paid in full.
11. Third-Party Platforms and Services
Creative Republic may build or manage websites, ecommerce stores, campaigns, or other experiences using third-party platforms.
These may include hosting providers, CMS platforms, ecommerce platforms, advertising networks, payment processors, analytics services, plugins, APIs, and other technologies.
Creative Republic does not control the availability, pricing, policies, security, or continued operation of third-party platforms.
Changes made by third-party providers may require additional work or incur additional costs.
12. Website and Ecommerce Services
For website and ecommerce projects, Creative Republic will provide the functionality and deliverables defined in the agreed scope.
Unless specifically included, ongoing maintenance, security monitoring, content updates, hosting management, product entry, payment processing, legal compliance, accessibility compliance, SEO performance, and third-party platform management are not automatically included.
For ecommerce websites, the client remains responsible for its products, prices, inventory, taxes, shipping policies, payment accounts, customer communications, and compliance with applicable laws and platform requirements.
13. Marketing Services
Marketing performance can be influenced by many factors outside Creative Republic’s control, including market conditions, competition, platform algorithms, advertising costs, audience behavior, budgets, client offerings, and third-party policies.
Creative Republic may use reasonable professional strategies and best practices but does not guarantee specific revenue, rankings, leads, engagement, conversions, or advertising results unless a specific written guarantee has been expressly agreed.
14. Portfolio and Promotional Use
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Creative Republic may display completed and publicly released work in its portfolio, website, social media, presentations, award submissions, case studies, and other promotional materials.
Creative Republic will not knowingly disclose confidential information solely for promotional purposes.
Confidentiality restrictions or portfolio limitations agreed in writing will take precedence.
15. Confidentiality
Both parties may receive confidential information belonging to the other party during a project.
Each party agrees to use reasonable care to protect confidential information and not disclose it to unauthorized parties except where disclosure is necessary to perform the agreement, required by law, or otherwise authorized.
Information that is publicly available, independently developed, lawfully obtained from another source, or already known without a confidentiality obligation will generally not be considered confidential.
16. Cancellation and Termination
Either party may terminate a project in accordance with the terms of the applicable project agreement.
If a project is cancelled after work has begun, the client may remain responsible for work completed, non-refundable expenses, approved third-party costs, and other amounts owed under the applicable agreement.
Deposits or payments may be non-refundable where work has already been performed or expenses have been incurred, subject to applicable law and the written project agreement.
Creative Republic may suspend or terminate services where there is non-payment, unlawful activity, abusive conduct, material breach of the agreement, or another legitimate contractual reason.
17. Refunds
Any refund eligibility will depend on the applicable service agreement, the stage of the project, payments already made, work completed, and applicable law.
Customized creative and digital services may not be eligible for a full refund once substantial work has been completed.
Any specific refund or satisfaction policy offered by Creative Republic will be governed by the terms communicated with that service.
18. Client-Provided Content
The client remains responsible for the legality and accuracy of materials provided to Creative Republic.
The client represents that it has the necessary rights, permissions, and licenses to use materials it provides for the project.
Creative Republic is not responsible for claims arising from unauthorized content supplied by the client.
19. Warranties and Disclaimers
Creative Republic will provide services using reasonable professional care and skill.
Except where expressly stated in writing, Creative Republic does not guarantee that:
- A website will operate without interruption
- A third-party platform will remain available
- Marketing results will meet a particular target
- Search rankings will reach a specific position
- A website or campaign will generate a particular level of sales or revenue
- Third-party systems will remain compatible indefinitely
The website and its general informational content are provided on an “as available” basis to the extent permitted by applicable law.
20. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Creative Republic will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from the use of our website or services.
Where legally permitted, Creative Republic’s total liability arising from a specific project or service will be limited to the amount actually paid by the client to Creative Republic for that project or service.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
21. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, the client agrees to indemnify and hold Creative Republic and its personnel, contractors, and service providers harmless from claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising from:
- Client-provided content
- Unauthorized use of intellectual property
- Client’s breach of these Terms
- Unlawful use of delivered materials

- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems or accounts
- Introduce malicious code or harmful software
- Interfere with website functionality
- Scrape or copy website content without permission
- Impersonate Creative Republic or another person
- Misuse forms, communication channels, or other website features
Creative Republic may restrict access to the website where necessary to protect its systems, users, or business.
23. External Links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services.
These links are provided for convenience and do not mean that Creative Republic endorses or controls those third parties.
We are not responsible for their content, availability, policies, or practices.
24. Changes to These Terms
Creative Republic may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time.
Updated terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
Your continued use of the website after an update may constitute acceptance of the revised Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Project-specific agreements already entered into may continue to be governed by the terms applicable when the agreement was made unless otherwise agreed.
25. Governing Law
These Terms & Conditions will be governed by the laws of Texas without regard to its conflict-of-law principles, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
Any disputes will be handled in the courts or jurisdiction specified in the applicable project agreement or, where no project-specific provision exists, in the jurisdiction legally applicable to Creative Republic.
26. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.
27. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with any applicable proposal, quotation, statement of work, service agreement, or other written agreement, constitute the agreement governing the applicable relationship between Creative Republic and the client.
Where a project-specific agreement conflicts with these Terms, the project-specific agreement will control for that project.
