High Country Design Service Disclaimer/Agreement

Items that are not within my control and I cannot be responsible for:

  • Copyright infringement issues regarding your content.
  • Errors in your submitted content.
  • Delays in design caused by late content submission.
  • Content submitted in an unusable format.
  • Hacker attacks and vandalism resulting from such attacks.
  • Server downtime/unavailable (i.e. too busy). My affiliated host boasts a 99.9% uptime so downtime is a very rare occurrence, "too busy" issues are generally resolved simply by retrying a few seconds later (and are also rare).
  • Domain name conflicts. 
  • Being tardy with your yearly hosting payment will result in the loss of the domain name.
  • Host server goes out of business.  Hosting rates cannot be guaranteed if the host server goes out of business.  In the unlikely event that my affiliate host becomes unavailable, I will offer a new hosting package and a credit or refund of hosting costs prorated monthly.
  • Page appearance across platforms and browsers. Due to the variety of browsers (and versions) in use today, and the user settings available, it is not possible to guarantee that the site will appear exactly as intended in all browsers.  I design primarily for Explorer 4+, and Netscape 4+.  Most of the site will also work in earlier versions but JAVA effects and some other features may not.  We will discuss these issues during the design stages of your site.

Additional Notes:

  • I retain the right to refer to your site as an example of my services, and require the placement throughout your site of text links crediting HCD with the design of your site. A typical example would be Site Design by High Country Design placed near the bottom of your pages and visible in the browser window.
  • If you decide to go elsewhere for your site maintenance and updating, I may require that you also host your site elsewhere.
  • In the unlikely event that you decide to seek hosting elsewhere, I will prorate your hosting fee according to the monthly payment schedule.  I may require that you also seek maintenance and updating services elsewhere.
  • Should our relationship be terminated, for reasons other than non-payment**, I will provide you with a CDROM or Floppy Disc(s) containing the current version of your site pages and attendant files. Site pages will be in HTML format and attendant files will be in the format in which they were utilized, i.e. JPEG, GIF, and so forth.      **If termination occurs due to non-payment any physical content materials (discs, papers) that you have provided will be returned, however none of the site content or programming (coding) which I have created or implemented will be provided to you until full payment has been made to my satisfaction.

Please contact me with any questions you may have regarding any of these notes.
