01
Scope
These terms apply to all contracts, services and offers from DesignHF (hereinafter “DesignHF”, “we”). Differing terms put forward by the client apply only where we expressly agree to them in writing.
02
Services and free preview
DesignHF provides services in web design, web development, online booking, brand and moving image, and related digital work. Following the principle “See it first. Then pay.”, we produce a non-binding and free preview on request. Costs arise only once you are satisfied and decide to work with us.
03
Offer and conclusion of contract
Our offers are without obligation. A contract comes into being when we confirm an engagement in writing — email included — or begin performance.
04
Prices and payment
All prices are in Swiss francs (CHF). As there is currently no VAT liability, no value-added tax is shown. Unless agreed otherwise, invoices are payable within 30 days of the invoice date without deduction.
05
Client cooperation
The client provides us in good time with all content, information and access required to perform the services, and warrants that they are entitled to use the materials supplied — texts, images, logos.
06
Deadlines and delivery
Stated dates are guidance unless expressly agreed as binding. Delays caused by a lack of client cooperation extend the deadlines accordingly.
07
Rights of use
Rights of use in the work created pass to the client only after payment in full. Until then all rights remain with DesignHF. Templates, libraries and tools we employ remain our property or that of the respective licensors.
08
Reference and attribution
We may show completed work as a reference, naming the client and using imagery. The client may object in writing at any time, after which we remove the reference within a reasonable period. Until consent is given we show the work only in anonymised form.
09
Warranty
We perform our services professionally and carefully. Defects must be notified in writing within a reasonable period. We are entitled to remedy notified defects by rectification.
10
Liability
We are liable only for direct damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence. Liability for slight negligence, indirect damage, consequential damage and loss of profit is excluded to the extent permitted by law.
11
Confidentiality
Each party treats the other party’s confidential information as confidential and uses it only in performing the contract.
12
Termination
Contracts may be terminated by either party in accordance with the agreed conditions. Services already rendered are to be remunerated pro rata.
13
Governing law and place of jurisdiction
Swiss law applies exclusively. The exclusive place of jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by law, is the Canton of Fribourg, Switzerland.
14
Severability
Should individual provisions of these terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid one coming closest to its economic purpose.
