Terms and Conditions
Welcome to Design Syndra's Terms and Conditions page, where client satisfaction is at the core of our commitment to delivering exceptional solutions.
REVISION POLICY
At Design Syndra, we strive for excellence in every aspect of our service. Our commitment to client satisfaction includes a revision turnaround time of approximately 48 hours, and we extend the offer of free-of-cost changes and revisions regardless of the package you choose. This policy is applicable to all designs, content, or layouts, ensuring your vision is meticulously crafted to perfection.
REFUND POLICY
Design Syndra values transparency and client trust. Once a design is approved, it becomes the embodiment of our shared creative journey and, as such, is not eligible for a refund. However, in cases of confusion or continuous changes that may suggest dissatisfaction with the quality of work, we are prepared to consider a full and final refund.
Please familiarize yourself with the following key points regarding our refund arrangement
- Refund requests must align with the designs and logos provided. Once you approve or request changes in the initial designs, the refund offer becomes void.
- Refund requests during the revision phase, once proven to be void, will not be entertained.
- If you opt not to proceed beyond the initial design delivery stage, a full refund will be offered, subject to a 10% administration and preparation charge.
- Refund eligibility within the first 48 hours is 66% (less a 10% administration and processing fee).
- Refund eligibility within 48-96 hours after the initial design delivery is 33% (less a 10% service and processing fee).
- Refund requests after 96 hours of the initial design delivery will not be entertained. However, we are always open to addressing concerns and queries to ensure client satisfaction.
- Refund requests following 7 working days of customer inactivity will not be entertained. Should you wish to restart the order, a fee for a new plan will be applicable.
- No refund requests will be considered if the customer goes unresponsive for 5 working days and claims a refund afterward.
- All refund requests must be directed to our support department. Design Syndra reserves the right to approve or reject any refund requests based on an individual case-by-case evaluation.
- Refunds will not be entertained after the final files have been delivered.
- For Website packages, no refund requests will be entertained after the revision of the initial design mockup or the creation of inner pages upon client approval.
- At Design Syndra, our dedicated support department carefully evaluates refund requests, ensuring all communication related to changes and finalizations is thoroughly documented on our official platform http://designsyndra.com/. We retain the authority to approve or reject your request based on the specifics of each case.
- For Design Syndra's Custom bundles, the refund policy mirrors that of our individual packages.
- If you request both a logo and web design and approve the logo, you are eligible for a refund for the website service only at the initial design stage.
- Each refund request must be supported by a valid reason that aligns with the design brief and client feedback. If a concept has not been executed according to the brief, a refund may not be granted, but revisions will be provided until satisfaction is achieved.
- We adhere to strict ethical policies, and both parties (Design Syndra & Client) mutually agree not to publicly criticize each other or any associated individuals on forums, blogs, social networks, etc., during or after the contract period.
- Both parties commit not to engage in discussions on forums, blogs, community groups, or social media that may tarnish the reputation of either party or its associates. In case of a breach, the violating party may be liable to pay reasonable compensation as damages for the breach of the agreed contract.
- Our Money Back Guarantee is contingent upon genuine requests. Any attempt by a client to place design orders with multiple agencies for the same job with the intent to claim a refund is considered fraudulent, and we reserve the right to reject refund requests for all work provided in such instances.
- We highly value active customer engagement and appreciate feedback to achieve optimal results. Client input is crucial before finalizing any design, facilitating a smoother process for both parties.
- Our 100% unique design guarantee ensures a new logo for clients. If a logo designed by Design Syndra is found to be significantly similar to an existing design, we offer compensation and revisions as long as the project is ongoing. Any resemblance to an existing design is considered coincidental, and Design Syndra disclaims responsibility or future compensation claims. Clients are responsible for copyrighting their artwork.
- Please note, "There are no refunds on any SEO or SMM Packages once the work is initiated" in accordance with our policy.
WEBSITE HOSTING POLICY
At Design Syndra, our commitment to your satisfaction is paramount. If you find our web hosting services unsatisfactory and notify us in writing within 7 days of initiating the service through our support ticket system, you will be entitled to a full refund for your web hosting services. Upon approval of the refund, you will be notified via email, and the refund will be processed within 30 days from the cancellation date. If you encounter any issues with your refund, please contact Design Syndra’s billing department.
