CONTRACTS AND OBLIGATIONS
Subscriptions are products and services rendered by us that are billed on a recurring basis. Unless otherwise specified, your recurring period is a calendar month beginning on the date services are activated and renew on the same day of the month for future recurring periods. In the instance that your renewal date is on a weekend, holiday or does not occur during that calendar month, your renewal will be processed on the first eligible business day prior to your renewal date. Subscriptions can be terminated by composing an email from the address on file to billing@brandefined.com expressing your intent and must be received no later than three business days prior to your renewal date. Once a renewal charge has been processed, services will continue for the entirety of your recurring period and refunds will not be issued.
Projects are products and services we provide that are billed up front or on an agreed upon installment plan. Examples of projects include, but are not limited to: applications, designs, websites, search engine optimization, promotional materials, etc... When payment, partial or in full, has been received we will initiate your project and establish a reasonable timeline for completion. Unforeseen delays can occur based on many factors including, but not limited to: staffing requirements, vendor delays, and your responsiveness to communication. Once a project has been initiated, we will complete your project in good faith. No refunds will be issued, and payment must be made in full prior to receiving your completed project.
REFUNDABLE DEPOSITS
During the process of onboarding new clients, in many instances, it is our standard practice to retain a deposit prior to providing consultation services. If, upon completing your consultation, you choose to purchase products or services from us, a credit will be applied to that purchase in the amount of your deposit. Otherwise, a refund in the amount of your deposit will be issued to the form of payment on file.
