Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions were last updated and became effective on September 07, 2023.
1. Parties to the Agreement
This Terms & Conditions shall serve as a replacement for the agreement between Servitti Web Agency (referred to as the "Servitti"), and the Client (referred to as the "Client"). It will be in effect, and the parties will be deemed to have agreed at the moment when the client purchases a service offered by Servitti through Gumroad, which acts as an intermediary in service payment.
2. Definitions
2.1. Website
'Website' refers to the online presence that Servitti will design and develop for the Client. This may include, but is not limited to, a business website designed to showcase the Client's products and services, an e-commerce platform enabling online sales, or a portfolio website showcasing the Client's creative work. The 'Website' may encompass features such as responsive design, content management systems, interactive forms, and any other functionalities agreed upon in the specific Service Package.
2.2. Service Package
Each service package offered by Servitti includes a specific set of services and components. These are detailed in separate agreements and may encompass tasks, functionalities, and resources that the Client can expect as part of the package.
2.3. Price
The pricing for our services is structured as follows:
Our Service Packages:
Details about our service packages, including pricing and the services they encompass, can be found on our pricing page. We offer three distinct packages to meet your needs: Vitale Package, Evoluzione Package and Ultimo Livello Package, with pricing details and what package includes, available on our pricing page.
2.4. Additional Services
Any services requested by the Client that go beyond the scope of the selected package will be subject to additional charges. These charges will be calculated based on the nature and extent of the requested services and will be communicated to the Client in advance for approval.
2.5. Taxes and Fees
All prices listed are exclusive of applicable taxes, fees, or other government-imposed charges. The Client is responsible for any such taxes or fees imposed by the relevant authorities, and they will be added to the total cost of the selected package.
2.6. Payment Method
Payments for the selected service package and any additional services will be processed securely through Gumroad, a trusted payment platform. Clients will receive payment instructions via Gumroad's payment processing system.
All invoices and payment-related notifications will be facilitated through Gumroad for your convenience.
3. Project Milestones
Furthermore, it is essential to note that the design and coding phase of the website, from project initiation to the website launch, is set to a maximum duration of 60 days. This timeframe ensures a timely delivery of the website while allowing flexibility for any unforeseen circumstances.
In the rare event that an extension beyond the 60-day limit becomes necessary, the Client will be promptly informed, and a detailed explanation will be provided. The Client's active participation and feedback throughout this process will greatly contribute to adhering to the established timeline.
In a hypothetical scenario, the comprehensive service package for this project may span up to 2 months until the website's launch. Our primary goal is to ensure that the Client is well-informed about this timeline and its potential variations. Additionally, the Client will have continuous access to our project management tool, Asana, for real-time tracking of task progress.
It is imperative that the Client understands that the full spectrum of Digital Marketing services cannot commence until the website is live.
Clients who have purchased one of our packages should be aware that Servitti's service is not a turnkey solution. Our service model is designed to evolve continuously and requires a timeframe for full implementation. If a client seeks an instant solution, Servitti can accommodate that, but such a service will not fall within one of our standard packages. In that case, please feel free to contact us.
4. Intellectual Property
4.1 Ownership
We want to clarify the ownership of intellectual property that arises during the website development process. Initially, the ownership of the design, content (Created by Servitti), and code will remain with Servitti. However, it's important to note that, depending on the package you choose, and excluding any content provided by the Client:
All content provided by the Client, such as logos and images, remains the exclusive property of the Client.
Vitale Package:
After a period of 18 months from the first payment, ownership of the code, content and design will be transferred to the Client. This ensures that, while we retain ownership initially, the Client will ultimately have full control and ownership of these assets, providing a transparent and mutually beneficial arrangement.
Evoluzione Package:
After a period of 9 months from the first payment, ownership of the code, content and design will be transferred to the Client. This ensures that, while we retain ownership initially, the Client will ultimately have full control and ownership of these assets, providing a transparent and mutually beneficial arrangement.
Ultimo Livello Package:
After a period of 6 months from the first payment, ownership of the code, content and design will be transferred to the Client. This ensures that, while we retain ownership initially, the Client will ultimately have full control and ownership of these assets, providing a transparent and mutually beneficial arrangement.
4.2 Third-Party Components
If third-party components, such as plugins or libraries, are used in the development of the website, their ownership and licensing terms are subject to the agreements set forth by their respective providers. Relevant licensing information will be documented in the README file within the code.
5. Obligations of the Parties
5.1. Obligations of Servitti (Service Provider)
Service Delivery: Servitti agrees to provide website design and development services to the Client in accordance with the terms and specifications outlined in this Agreement, as well as any written correspondence.

7. Confidential Information
7.1. Definition
'Refers to any non-public or proprietary information disclosed by either party to this agreement during the course of our collaboration. This includes, but is not limited to, business strategies, financial data, technical specifications, trade secrets, customer information, and any other information not generally available to the public.
7.2. Confidentiality Obligations
Both parties agree to treat all Confidential Information with the utmost care and to take reasonable measures to prevent its disclosure to unauthorized individuals or entities. Any Confidential Information shared between the parties will be used exclusively for the purposes of fulfilling the services outlined in this agreement and will not be disclosed to third parties without the prior written consent of the disclosing party.
The obligation to protect and respect Confidential Information remains in effect both during the term of this agreement and after its termination or expiration. This commitment to confidentiality ensures the trust and security of sensitive information throughout our collaboration.
8. Termination and Refunds
Termination refers to the act of ending or canceling this agreement between Servitti and the Client. Termination may occur under the following conditions:
Mutual Agreement: Termination may occur by mutual written agreement between Servitti and the Client. Both parties must provide written consent for termination to be valid.
Breach of Agreement: If either party breaches any material term or condition of this agreement, and such breach is not remedied within 10 days after receiving written notice from the non-breaching party, the non-breaching party may terminate the agreement.
Force Majeure: In the event of unforeseen circumstances, including but not limited to acts of nature, government actions, or other events beyond the control of either party that render the performance of this agreement impossible or impractical, either party may terminate the agreement without penalty.
Non-Payment: If the Client discontinues their monthly subscription on Gumroad without prior notice or justifiable reason, Servitti reserves the right to terminate the agreement immediately upon becoming aware of the non-payment or subscription discontinuation.
If the agreement is terminated, and if Gumroad has already processed the monthly membership fee for that specific month, the amount for that month shall not be refunded to the Client. However, further billing will be suspended, and any funds deducted in previous months shall be considered as payment for the hours worked during the duration of the ongoing collaboration up to that point.
If the Client has chosen a 6-month payment option, and the agreement is terminated before the full 6-month period has elapsed, the Client will receive a refund for the remaining months that have not been utilized. For instance, if the Client terminates the agreement after 1.5 months of collaboration, the refund will encompass the remaining 4 months (not 4.5). This calculation will be done by dividing the total amount paid by 6 and then multiplying it by the number of remaining months.
Upon termination, the parties agree to cease all further obligations and responsibilities outlined in this agreement, with the exception of any provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination. Termination will not affect any accrued rights or obligations, including but not limited to payment obligations, that either party may have at the time of termination.
It is our intention to maintain open and transparent communication throughout our collaboration, and we hope to avoid the need for termination whenever possible. However, these termination conditions are established to protect both parties' interests in case such action becomes necessary.
Dispute Resolution: In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any breach, termination, or validity thereof, the parties shall make good faith efforts to resolve such dispute through negotiation and discussion between their respective representatives.
If the dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation within 30 days after either party has given written notice to the other party describing the nature of the dispute, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole and exclusive remedy for resolution of such dispute. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the Basic Court in Gradiška, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding upon both parties.
Each party shall bear its own costs associated with the arbitration, including attorney's fees. However, the prevailing party in the arbitration shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees and costs from the other party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive relief or specific performance in a court of law without first engaging in arbitration if such relief is necessary to protect its rights or interests pending the outcome of the arbitration.
This Dispute Resolution clause is intended to provide an efficient and cost-effective means of resolving disputes between the parties while preserving their right to seek immediate injunctive relief in certain circumstances.
