👥 Parties to the Agreement

Optional - Find at Companies House

💻 Project Details

? Be specific about what's included: number of pages, features, functionality. This prevents scope creep and disputes.

📅 Timeline & Milestones

? Set realistic timelines. Include buffer time for revisions and client feedback delays.
? Break large projects into stages. Helps with payment scheduling and project management.

💷 Fees & Payment Terms

? Milestone-based payments protect both parties. Never do all work before payment.
? How many days the client has to pay invoices. 7-14 days is standard for web projects.
Bank of England base rate + 8% is statutory right

©️ Intellectual Property Rights

? CRITICAL: IP typically transfers on full payment. Never transfer IP before receiving full payment.
? Can you showcase this project in your portfolio? Get this in writing.
Important: All custom code and designs become client's property upon full payment. Third-party tools/plugins remain subject to their own licenses.

🌐 Hosting & Domain Management

? Clarify who manages hosting. If you manage it, specify it's separate from this agreement.

🔧 Support & Maintenance

? Free bug fixes period after launch. 30-90 days is standard for critical bugs only.
? Post-warranty support. Should be separate paid agreement. Include if bundled in this contract.
Warranty covers bugs and errors in original deliverables only. New features, content changes, and third-party plugin issues are chargeable.

📝 Content & Client Materials

? CRITICAL: Clarify who provides content (text, images). Delays in content provision extend project timeline.
Key Point: Project timelines pause if client delays providing content. Developer not liable for copyright issues with client-provided materials.

✅ Testing & Acceptance Criteria

? How long client has to review and provide feedback at each stage. 5-7 days is reasonable.
? Limit revisions to prevent endless changes. 2 rounds per stage is standard.

🔒 Confidentiality

? Standard for most projects. High level for sensitive business data or proprietary systems.

⚖️ Liability & Warranty

? Limits your liability. Typically 100% of fees paid. Essential for risk management.
Key Exclusions: Developer not liable for third-party services, client-provided content, hosting issues, or losses due to client's failure to backup data.

🚪 Termination Rights

? Written notice required to end agreement early. Both parties should have this right.
? What happens to payment if project ends early. Protect yourself from unpaid work.
Either party can terminate for material breach. Developer can suspend work for non-payment. IP rights only transfer on full payment.
