Terms of service.

Welcome to Bloom Digital Studios! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our website and services. By accessing or using our site and working with us, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.

1. Services

Bloom Digital Studios provides web design and development services, primarily using the Squarespace platform. Services may include layout design, site setup, mobile optimization, basic branding, and creative consulting. Details of each project, including scope, timeline, and pricing, will be outlined in a separate proposal or contract.

2. Payments & Deposits

Projects require a 50% non-refundable deposit to begin. The remaining balance is typically split into milestone payments as outlined in your proposal or service agreement. Payments are accepted through secure methods, including the Squarespace Projects platform. Late payments may result in project delays and additional fees.

3. Refund Policy

Due to the customized nature of our services, all payments are non-refundable. If you terminate a project early, you are still responsible for payment of work completed up to the date of cancellation. Exceptions may be made at the sole discretion of Bloom Digital Studios.

4. Intellectual Property

Final deliverables (such as your website and branded assets) become your property once the final payment is received. Bloom Digital Studios retains the right to showcase completed projects in our portfolio and marketing materials. You are responsible for ensuring you have rights to any content, images, or assets you provide.

5. Client Responsibilities

You agree to provide all requested content, feedback, logins, and approvals in a timely manner. Delays in communication or missing materials may impact the timeline and completion of your project.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bloom Digital Studios shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from the use of our services. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the total fees paid for the project in question.

7. Website Platforms & Third-Party Tools

We primarily use Squarespace to build websites. We are not responsible for outages, limitations, or changes made by third-party platforms. Your continued use of those platforms is subject to their own terms of service and privacy policies.

8. Confidentiality

Any sensitive or proprietary information shared during the project will be kept confidential and not disclosed to any third party without your consent, unless required by law.

9. Modifications to Services

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of our services or website at any time without prior notice. Any changes will be posted on this page.

10. Termination

Either party may terminate a project agreement in writing. In the event of termination, all completed work must be paid in full. All rights to unpaid work remain with Bloom Digital Studios.

11. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes shall be resolved first through good-faith negotiation, then through mediation in Contra Costa County, CA if necessary.
