Communication and Projects

Project Inquiries

When you contact us about a potential project, you agree that the information you provide is accurate and complete. Initial consultations and discussions are exploratory and do not constitute a binding agreement until a formal project proposal is accepted in writing.

Confidentiality

We treat project discussions with discretion. However, please note that initial inquiry details shared through our website contact form are not covered by formal confidentiality agreements. For sensitive projects, we recommend discussing confidentiality terms before sharing detailed information.

Project Agreements

Formal project engagements are governed by separate project agreements that outline scope, deliverables, timelines, and payment terms. These Terms of Service apply to website usage and general interactions, while specific project terms are defined in individual contracts.

We may update our services, pricing, and offerings at any time. Changes to active project agreements require mutual consent. Website content and service descriptions may be updated without prior notice.
