1. Who the plan is for
The plan is for businesses, sole traders and organisations, for websites about their own business. We check that the plan suits your business before we start, and we may decline a website that does not fit it.
2. The free build
- We build up to 20 standard pages on one of our ready-made designs, set up with your logo, colours, text and images, or copied from your current website.
- The build includes one consolidated round of changes before we hand the website over.
- You supply ready-to-use text and images, and confirm you have the right to publish them. Copywriting, photography, bespoke design, extra pages and extra rounds of changes are not included and are quoted separately.
- Online payments, ecommerce, booking systems, property listing systems, custom databases and integrations are not part of the plan.
3. The free period
Your six free months start on the day we hand your finished website over to you. During this time the website, hosting, SSL, backups, the CMS and email support are free.
4. After six months: £99 a year
- About a month before the free period ends, we email you an invoice for £99. Paying it keeps your website online for the next 12 months.
- Each year after that, we invoice you again before the renewal date. If the annual price is going to change, we tell you at least 30 days before your renewal.
- We do not take card details to start, and we never charge you automatically.
- The price includes any VAT that applies; the amount is shown on the invoice.
- Paid years are not refunded part-way through.
5. What the plan includes while it is active
- Hosting and SSL for your website on our platform.
- Security updates, routine maintenance and backups.
- Access to the CMS so you can edit, preview and publish your own content.
- Email support for faults in the service and for help using the CMS.
Changes you ask us to make to your content or design are not included. We tell you the price first and only do the work once you agree.
6. Closing your website
- You can stop at any time by not paying the next invoice. You do not need to give notice.
- If an invoice is not paid, we remind you, then take the website offline 14 days after the free period or paid year ends.
- If you ask within 30 days of the website going offline, we send you a copy of your text and images. After that we may delete the website and its content.
- We may also close a website, with notice where possible, if it is used for anything unlawful or in breach of section 8.
7. Ownership
- Your text, logo, photographs and other content you supply stay yours. You give us permission to host and display them on your website while the plan is active.
- Your domain name stays registered in your name, and you pay its registration and renewal. We tell you which settings to change to point it at your website.
- Our designs, the CMS, the platform and its source code stay ours. The plan gives you use of them while it is active; it does not include a copy of the source code or a portable copy of the website.
8. Your responsibilities
- Keep the information on your website accurate, including prices, opening hours, allergens and any legal notices your business needs.
- Only publish content you have the right to use, and nothing unlawful, misleading or harmful.
- Keep your CMS sign-in details private.
9. Availability and liability
We aim to keep your website online and backed up, but we cannot promise it will never be unavailable, for example during maintenance or problems outside our control. Our total liability to you under the plan is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for lost profits, lost business or indirect losses. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
10. Changes to these terms
If we change these terms, we email you at least 30 days before the change applies to you. The version in force when you pay an invoice applies to that year.
11. Law and contact
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Questions about the plan: baker@abacadigital.com.
