4. Ordering, Start of Work, and Client Cooperation

4.1 Online Purchase
All Services are purchased online through the Site.

4.2 When Website Design Work Begins
Website design services will begin only after (a) payment has been confirmed and (b) you have provided all required Client Materials (logos, typography, brand guidelines, etc.). Once materials are received, an initial meeting may be scheduled, and the design process will begin.

4.3 Client Materials and Delays
You agree to provide requested Client Materials promptly. The current expectation is delivery within three (3) days, unless otherwise agreed. If you do not provide required materials, the project will not start and timelines will be extended.

5. AI-Assisted Development

Client acknowledges and agrees that Xilo Design uses AI-assisted tools, systems, automations, and workflows during portions of the design, development, copywriting, optimization, and production process.

All AI-generated or AI-assisted outputs are reviewed and curated by Xilo Design before delivery; however:

• Client is responsible for reviewing and approving all deliverables.
• Client assumes responsibility for final approval and use of all delivered materials.

6. Client Portal & Account Responsibilities

Clients are required to create and maintain an account within the Xilo Design client portal. The client portal is used for: project onboarding, asset uploads, communication, scheduling, approvals, revisions, invoices, support requests, and downloadable deliverables.

Clients are responsible for:

• Maintaining accurate account information.
• Securing their login credentials.
• Uploading and downloading all required project materials.
• Monitoring project communications within the portal.

Xilo Design is not responsible for delays caused by missing client information or inactivity.

7. Payment Terms

7.1 Project Payment Structure
Unless otherwise stated in writing, 50% payment is required before project work begins. The remaining 50% must be paid after showing the project and before website publication, hosting deployment, transfer of files, or release of source code. No final files, link, source code, or deployment access will be delivered until the project has been fully paid.

7.2 Payment Processing
Payments are securely processed through Stripe. Client agrees to comply with Stripe's payment policies and terms.

7.3 Refund Policy
Payments are refundable only before work has officially started. Once project work, design, development, strategy, or production has begun, payments become non-refundable.

7.4 Price Changes
We may modify pricing at any time; changes will not affect services already purchased.

7.5 Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute for amounts legitimately owed, we may (a) pause work, (b) suspend hosting/support, and/or (c) require payment resolution before continuing. This does not limit any other remedies we may have.

8. Service Types and Subscription Terms

8.1 Website Development
One-time fee split into two 50% payments: 50% upfront before work begins and the remaining 50% after the project has been presented to the client and before final delivery, deployment, or release of files.

Project timelines begin only after onboarding requirements have been completed, payment has been confirmed, and all required client materials and assets have been submitted, including but not limited to brand assets, text content, business information, approvals, and other requested project resources.

If the client delays in providing materials, approvals, or feedback, project timelines will automatically be extended accordingly. If branding, logo design, copywriting, or additional services are purchased separately, website development timelines will begin only after those services have been completed.

10. Client Inactivity

If the client becomes unresponsive or fails to provide required materials, feedback, approvals, or communication for a period of fifteen (15) consecutive days, the project may be paused and removed from the active production schedule at the Company's discretion. During the paused period, delivery timelines will be suspended and subject to rescheduling based on the Company's current availability.

If the project remains inactive for sixty (60) consecutive days, the Company shall not be responsible for maintaining, storing, or preserving project files, documents, assets, drafts, communications, or other related materials. To resume or reactivate a project after such period, the client may be required to pay a reactivation fee and/or be subject to updated pricing, timelines, and availability based on the Company's current rates and scheduling.

11. Revisions Policy

Each package includes a limited number of revision rounds as described in the purchased package. A "revision round" is defined as a single consolidated submission of feedback, comments, or requested changes delivered at one time.
