By accessing our website, creating an account, requesting or purchasing services, scheduling a consultation, accepting an agreement or proposal, submitting payment, or otherwise using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you do not agree with these Terms, you should not use our services.

If you use our services on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity.
3. Consultations

A consultation does not guarantee that we will accept your project or enter into a business relationship with you.
We reserve the right to decline a project or service request at our discretion.
Consultation fees, if applicable, are generally non-refundable once the consultation has taken place unless otherwise stated in writing.
4. Proposals, Agreements, and Scope of Work
Projects may be governed by a separate proposal, service agreement, statement of work, invoice, subscription agreement, or electronic agreement.
Such documents may define:
- Scope of work

- Project price
- Deposit requirements
- Payment schedule
- Development timeline
- Number of pages
- Included functionality
- Revision limits
- Hosting
- Maintenance
- Website-management services
- Other project-specific terms
If a project-specific written agreement conflicts with these Terms, the project-specific agreement will control with respect to that project.
5. Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing accurate information, materials, approvals, and access reasonably necessary for Gravity Business Solutions to perform the requested services.
This may include:

This may include:

- Abusive toward our systems or personnel
- Otherwise inappropriate for our services
We may suspend or terminate services involving prohibited activity.
8. Website Development Process
Website projects may progress through stages including:
Consultation → Planning → Development → Review → Testing → Approval → Launch
Gravity Business Solutions may place a website in a temporary development, staging, preview, testing, or pre-launch environment during development.
Such environments are temporary and may be changed, reused, disabled, or removed after the applicable review period.
A temporary development or preview environment should not be considered the client's permanent production website.
9. Client Review and Approval
Clients are responsible for reviewing their website before final launch.
Clients should verify, where applicable:
- Business information
- Spelling and grammar
- Contact information
- Pricing
- Products and services
- Forms
- Links
- Images
- Policies
- Mobile presentation
- Functional features
Once a client provides final approval, Gravity Business Solutions may treat the website as approved for launch.
Changes requested after approval may constitute additional work or may count toward an applicable website-management plan.
10. Revisions
Included revisions, if any, will be determined by the applicable project agreement or proposal.
A revision generally means a reasonable modification to previously completed work.
A revision does not necessarily include:
- Complete redesign
- Major structural changes
- New sections beyond the agreed scope
- New pages
- New software functionality
- New integrations
- Major content creation
- A substantially different project direction
Additional work may require a separate quote or additional payment.
11. Website Management Services
Website-management clients may receive a specified number of changes or service requests per billing period.
The specific allowance depends on the client's plan.
A standard website change generally refers to a reasonable minor update such as:
- Changing text
- Replacing an image
- Updating contact information
- Updating pricing
- Editing operating hours
- Small layout changes
Large development tasks, redesign work, new pages, new integrations, or substantial functionality may require separate pricing.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, unused website-management changes do not roll over into future billing periods.
12. Hosting
Gravity Business Solutions may provide or arrange website hosting.
Hosting may depend upon third-party infrastructure and service providers.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free hosting.
Service interruptions may occur because of:
- Scheduled maintenance
- Server outages
- DNS failures
- Internet infrastructure failures
- Cybersecurity incidents
- Software failures
- Third-party service interruptions
- Events outside our reasonable control
13. Domain Names
Unless otherwise stated in writing, clients are responsible for purchasing, maintaining, and renewing their domain names.
If Gravity Business Solutions purchases or manages a domain on behalf of a client, ownership and transfer rights will be determined by the applicable service agreement.
Clients remain responsible for ensuring domain registration information is accurate and current.
14. Third-Party Services
Our services may use or integrate with third-party platforms, including payment processors, hosting companies, analytics services, domain registrars, email providers, APIs, social media platforms, scheduling services, plugins, and software platforms.
Gravity Business Solutions does not control those third parties.
We are not responsible for third-party:

Gravity Business Solutions does not directly store complete payment-card numbers when payments are processed through a third-party payment processor.
16. Deposits
A deposit may be required before work begins.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, a deposit becomes non-refundable once substantive work has begun or project resources have been committed.

Because many Gravity Business Solutions services involve customized professional labor and digital work, payments are generally non-refundable once the applicable work has been performed.
Any refund determination may consider:
- Work completed
- Project stage
- Labor performed
- Third-party costs
- Services already provided
- Applicable written agreements
Nothing in these Terms limits any refund right that cannot legally be waived.
21. Cancellation
Clients may request cancellation of recurring services.
Cancellation does not eliminate charges already earned, incurred, authorized, or billed.
Unless otherwise stated, cancellation applies prospectively.
Outstanding balances remain due after cancellation.
22. Inactive or Abandoned Projects
Gravity Business Solutions may pause or close a project if a client stops responding or fails to provide required materials, feedback, payment, or approval for an extended period.
Restarting an inactive project may require:
- Updated pricing
- A revised schedule
- A restart fee
- A new or amended agreement

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or warranties that cannot legally be excluded.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gravity Business Solutions' aggregate liability arising from a particular service will not exceed the amount actually paid by the client to Gravity Business Solutions for the service giving rise to the claim during the applicable service period.

41. Good-Faith Dispute Resolution
Before initiating formal legal proceedings, the parties agree to make a reasonable good-faith effort to resolve the dispute directly.

42. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
