Customized offers. If you have chosen a customized offer or another Service that includes a specific project description or deliverable, such as web design, presentation, ad, social media creative, or packaging and merch design (each a “Project”), then we will deliver such Project to you in accordance with the Service Specification.


Subscriptions. If you have purchased a Service with a subscription that entitles you to a set number of work hours, then we will be available for the number of hours specified in the Service Specification and you may use the hours on the Projects that you order separately (see instructions below).

HOW DO I USE THE SERVICES?

The Platform. The Services are primarily administered through our web-based platform available on the Site (the “Platform”). However, you can also purchase Services and communicate with us over e-mail or phone through the contact details provided at the bottom of this document.

Authorized Users. Only you and those of your authorized users, such as employees, representatives and other authorized persons within the Customer organization (“Authorized Users”) may use the purchased Services and other materials that may be provided in conjunction with the Services.

Customer Account. To use the Platform, an authorized representative of the Customer (an “Admin”) needs to create a customer account in the Platform (a “Customer Account”). The Admin may then invite Authorized Users as users to the Customer Account. Authorized Users may access and use the Platform and related materials provided through the Platform after creating a user account (“User Account”).

Personal information. To provide the Services and the Platform we need to obtain certain personal information as prompted in the registration form, such as e-mail address, password, and your company billing information.
