  • Prompt Milestone Feedback: Review and provide constructive feedback on intermediate drafts, prototypes, or staging sites within three (3) business days of submission. Client delays exceeding five (5) business days will proportionally shift downstream delivery schedules.

Structural additions, new software integrations, multi-tier database features, or shifts in agreed core business models constitute out-of-scope work and will be quoted separately under an addendum change order.

  • Client-Supplied Assets: The client warrants that all text, logos, trademarks, and third-party media supplied to SEYV Studio are owned by the client or used with explicit permission. The client indemnifies SEYV Studio against any third-party copyright or trademark infringement claims resulting from client-provided materials.
