Terms & conditions.
The terms under which byPeach Studio designs, builds, and ships websites for our clients. Written in plain English, free of any boilerplate that does not earn its place.
About these terms
These are the terms under which byPeach Studio ("byPeach", "we", "us") designs, builds, and ships websites for clients ("you", "the client"). They apply to every quote we send, every project we sign, and the use of bypeach.studio itself.
A signed quote or a paid deposit confirms that you have read and accepted these terms. If anything in a signed Statement of Work conflicts with these terms, the Statement of Work wins.
The work, the timeline, the price
Each engagement is scoped in a written quote covering deliverables, the number of revision rounds, the agreed timeline, and the price in USD or INR.
Our standard build window is 14 working days from the moment we have received the deposit, your brand assets, and approved copy and photography. Delays in client feedback shift the timeline by an equal amount.
Prices are quoted exclusive of GST. Indian clients are billed GST as applicable. Third-party costs (domains, hosting, stock photography, paid plugins, fonts) are passed through at cost and called out in the quote.
Payment
Unless your quote says otherwise: 50% deposit to start, 50% on launch. Both invoices are due within 7 days of issue.
Late payments accrue interest at 1.5% per month on the outstanding balance, beginning the day after the due date. Work pauses on overdue invoices. Hosting and ongoing support may be suspended after 30 days of non-payment.
Refunds: the deposit secures studio time and is non-refundable once design work has begun. If we have not started, the deposit is refunded in full within 14 days.
Revisions and scope
Every quote includes a defined number of revision rounds at the design stage and at the development stage. Further changes within scope are billed at our published hourly rate.
A change in scope (a new page, a new feature, a new platform) is handled with a written change order specifying additional cost and additional time. We do not start the change until you approve it in writing.
Polishing copy and replacing placeholder content is not a revision round. Wholesale rewrites of approved direction are.
Your responsibilities
You agree to provide brand assets, copy, photography, and feedback in a timely manner. We will tell you upfront what is needed and when.
You confirm that any content you give us (logos, photos, text, fonts, video) is yours to use, or that you have a valid license to use it. byPeach is not liable for infringement claims arising from client-supplied content.
You will nominate a single point of contact who can sign off on decisions. Multiple, conflicting approvers slow projects down and trigger change orders.
Ownership and licensing
On full payment, you own the final design files and the source code we produce specifically for your project, with the right to use, modify, and host them in perpetuity.
We retain ownership of pre-existing tools, libraries, components, and templates that we bring to the engagement. You receive a perpetual, non-exclusive license to use them as part of your delivered site.
We may showcase the work in our portfolio, case studies, and marketing material. If a project is confidential, tell us before kickoff and we will sign a mutual NDA.
Hosting, support, and warranties
Every site we ship comes with 30 days of free post-launch support for bugs and shipping defects. After that, ongoing support is offered as a separate care plan.
We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free, but we will fix any reproducible bug introduced by our work, free of charge, within the support window.
Hosting performance, uptime, and security depend on the providers you choose (AWS, Vercel, Netlify, and similar). Their terms apply alongside ours.
Confidentiality
Anything you share with us in the course of an engagement (business strategy, financials, customer data, unreleased products) is treated as confidential and protected with the same care we use for our own.
We will not disclose confidential information to anyone outside the studio without your written permission, except where required by law.
Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, byPeach's total liability for any claim arising out of an engagement is capped at the total fees you paid us for that engagement in the 12 months preceding the claim.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses, including lost revenue, lost data, or loss of goodwill.
Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, gross negligence, or anything that cannot be limited under Indian law.
Termination
Either party may end an engagement in writing with 14 days notice. You pay for work completed up to the termination date, plus any non-cancellable third-party costs already incurred on your behalf.
If you terminate before launch, we hand over the work-in-progress files in their current state. Pre-existing tools and templates remain ours.
We may end an engagement immediately, retaining the deposit, if you materially breach these terms (for example by failing to pay, by demanding work outside the law, or by treating studio staff abusively).
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute that cannot be resolved through good-faith conversation will be heard in the courts of Bengaluru.
Changes
We may update these terms as the studio evolves. The version that governs your engagement is the one in force on the day you signed your quote, unless we agree to update in writing.
