Terms of Use

01General provisions

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of the stk-design.biz.ua website and set out the general principles of cooperation between ST.K Design and clients of its services.

By visiting the site, you accept these Terms in full. If you do not agree with any provision, please stop using the site.

The Terms apply together with the Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of them.

02Definitions

• Agency — ST.K Design, the provider of design and development services.
• Site — the stk-design.biz.ua web resource with all its pages and materials.
• User — any person who visits the Site.
• Client — an individual or legal entity that has entered into a service agreement with the Agency.
• Services — UX/UI design, mobile and web app development, branding, website creation, e-commerce solutions and related work.
• Request — an enquiry via the form on the Site or through the listed contact channels.

03Using the site

The Site is provided to learn about the Agency’s services and to enquire about cooperation. By using it, you agree not to:

• Disrupt the operation of the Site, attempt unauthorised access or conduct load attacks.
• Use automated tools to mass-collect materials without our written consent.
• Submit spam, malicious code or knowingly false data through the form.
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with any organisation.
• Use the Site’s materials in a way that infringes third-party rights.

We reserve the right to restrict access to the Site for those who violate these Terms, without prior notice.

04Intellectual property

All materials on the Site — design, structure, text content, graphics, illustrations, animations, source code, and the ST.K Design logo and name — are subject to copyright and belong to the Agency or are used by it on lawful grounds.

Copying, reproducing, publishing or commercially using the Site’s materials without the Agency’s prior written consent is prohibited.

Quoting with an active hyperlink to the original source is permitted to the extent justified by the purpose of the quotation.

05Requests and communication

By submitting a request through the form on the Site, you confirm the accuracy of the information provided and consent to the processing of personal data in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

We aim to respond to requests within one business day. This timeframe is indicative and does not constitute a contractual obligation.

Submitting a request and subsequent correspondence does not constitute a contract and creates no obligations for either party to provide or pay for services. Contractual relations arise upon signing a separate agreement or approving a proposal.

06How services are provided

Each project is documented in a separate agreement or proposal that sets out the scope of work, stages, timelines, cost and acceptance procedure. The terms of a specific agreement prevail over the general provisions of this section.

The general workflow:

• Briefing and estimation — clarifying the task, goals and constraints; preparing a proposal.
• Agreement — fixing the scope, cost and timelines in a contract.
• Delivery in stages — handing over interim results for review.
• Revisions — the number of revision rounds at each stage is defined by the contract.
• Acceptance — handover of final materials and source files.

The Client undertakes to provide the necessary materials, access and feedback in a timely manner. Delays on the Client’s side shift the delivery timelines accordingly.

07Payment and timelines

The cost of services is determined individually based on the project estimate. Prices on the Site or the budget ranges in the form are indicative and do not constitute a public offer.

• Work is generally performed on a prepayment basis or in stages according to a payment schedule.
• Payments are made off-site on the basis of issued invoices.
• Expansion of scope at the Client’s initiative is documented in an additional agreement and paid for separately.
• In the event of early termination, work actually performed is paid for.

08Rights to deliverables

Economic intellectual property rights to materials created under the project pass to the Client after full payment of the service cost, unless otherwise stated in the contract.

Until full payment is made, all deliverables remain the property of the Agency.

The Agency retains the right to use completed work in its own portfolio, presentations and marketing materials, unless the Client has objected in writing.

Licences for fonts, stock images, libraries and third-party services used in the project are purchased in the Client’s name and paid for by them separately, unless agreed otherwise.

09Confidentiality

The Agency undertakes not to disclose information received from the Client during cooperation and marked as confidential. At the Client’s request, a separate non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is signed before work begins.

10Limitation of liability

The Site’s materials are provided “as is”. We make an effort to keep information current and accurate, but we do not guarantee its completeness and are not liable for decisions made on its basis.

The Agency is not liable for:

• Temporary unavailability of the Site due to maintenance or provider outages.
• Indirect damages, lost profit or reputational harm caused by use of the Site.
• Consequences of the Client independently modifying delivered materials after acceptance.
• The operation of third-party services and integrations chosen by the Client.

The Agency’s aggregate liability for a specific project is limited to the amount actually paid by the Client for the relevant stage of work.

11Third-party links

The Site may contain links to external resources. We do not control their content and are not responsible for their operation, privacy policies or the accuracy of information posted there. You follow such links at your own risk.

12Dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of Ukraine. The parties will seek to resolve all disputes through negotiation.

If no agreement is reached, the dispute is referred to the competent court at the Agency’s location, unless another procedure is established by contract or by mandatory provisions of law.

13Changes to the Terms

The Agency may update these Terms. A new version takes effect from the moment it is published on this page; the date of the last update is shown at the top.

Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated version. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.
