What these terms cover
Every quote we send and every job we take on: logos, brand identities, websites, product design and prototypes. If your quote says something different from this page, the quote wins. CardboardShaper has its own terms.
Quotes and prices
The prices on this website are starting prices. Every job begins with a written quote that says what you get and what it costs. A quote is valid for 30 days. The job starts when you accept the quote in writing; an email is enough.
Prices are in euros. We use the Dutch small-business scheme (kleineondernemersregeling, KOR), so we charge no VAT: the price in your quote is the price you pay.
Things we have to buy for your job are not included unless the quote says so: materials, printing, fonts, stock images, domain names, hosting. You hear the cost before we buy anything.
Working together
To do good work we need things from you: information, texts, images and feedback. If they arrive late, the job takes longer. You make sure that you are allowed to use what you give us.
Dates we mention are our honest estimate, not hard deadlines, unless we agree on a deadline in writing.
Changes and extra work
The quote says how many rounds of changes are included. If it says nothing, it is two for a logo, an identity or a website, and one for a prototype. Anything beyond that, or outside what the quote describes, is extra work. You hear the price first, and we start only after you say yes. Unless we agree otherwise, extra work is charged at € 35 per hour.
Paying
Small jobs are invoiced on delivery. For larger jobs we may invoice a part in advance and the rest on delivery; the quote says how. Materials for prototypes are invoiced when we buy them.
Invoices are due within 14 days. If an invoice is still unpaid after a reminder, we may pause the work, and statutory interest and reasonable collection costs may be added.
Who owns what
Once you have paid in full, everything we deliver is yours: the logo, the identity, the design and code of your website, the sketches, the product design, the 3D files and the drawings. You may use, change and register them however you like. Until you have paid, they remain ours and you may not use them.
The tools, building blocks and know-how we use from job to job stay ours; you get a lasting right to use whatever of that is built into your result.
Fonts, photos and software made by others come with their own licences. We tell you which ones apply.
Once your logo, website or product is out in the world, we may show it in our portfolio, unless you ask us not to or we agreed to keep it confidential.
Your ideas
Your idea is yours. Everything you tell us about a product that is not public yet, we treat as confidential, even if the job never starts. We are happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement first.
Websites
You arrange and pay for the domain name and the hosting, unless we agree that we do that for you. We deliver a website that works in the current versions of the common browsers. For 30 days after delivery we fix real faults in our own work free of charge. Maintenance and later changes are separate work.
You are responsible for what is on your website: the texts, the images and the legal pages.
Prototypes and products
A prototype is a test model. It is made to find out whether something works, and it may break. It is not a tested or certified product, and it is not meant to be sold or to be used without supervision.
A design that is ready for production is our best professional work. It is not a guarantee that the product meets every law, standard or safety requirement that applies to it. Checking and testing that, for example for a CE mark, is your responsibility, and so is checking that your product does not infringe someone else's patent or design right. We tell you when we see a risk.
Always have a sample made and approved before you order a production run. We are not liable for tooling or production costs of a run that was ordered without one.
Stopping a job
You can stop a job at any moment. You then pay for the work done up to that point and for the costs we have already incurred, and you receive that work. We can stop a job if you do not pay, or if we do not get what we need after asking twice. The same then applies.
Private clients
If you are a consumer and we made our agreement at a distance (by email, by phone or through this website), you may cancel within 14 days without giving a reason. If you asked us to start within those 14 days, you pay for the work done until the moment you cancel. If the job is completely finished within those 14 days at your request, the right to cancel ends. Things made especially for you, such as a prototype, cannot be returned.
Liability
We do our work with care, but we cannot promise a commercial result: that a logo brings customers, or that a product sells.
Where liability can lawfully be limited, ours is limited to what you paid us for the job in question, and we are not liable for indirect damage such as lost profit. Nothing here excludes liability for intent or gross negligence, and nothing here limits the rights you have as a consumer under mandatory law.

Changes to these terms
These terms may change. The version that applies to your job is the one that was published on the day you accepted the quote. Ask, and we send you that version.
Which law applies
Dutch law. Disputes go to the competent court in the Netherlands, except that a consumer may also bring a case, or be sued, in the courts of their own country of residence, and keeps the protection of the mandatory law there.
