Agreement
These Terms govern your access to and use of Style Driven's website and services. By using either, you agree to them. If you don't, please don't use the services.
Who can use this
You must be at least the age of majority where you live and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
What we sell
Style Driven offers three things, and these Terms govern all of them.
- Agency Partnership. White label production delivered under your brand, or RFP partnership, where rates are agreed before your response goes out, we are named as the production partner for the services we price, and we get first refusal if the bid lands. Being named in a bid is not exclusivity.
- Project work. Scoped one project at a time across design, photography, video, and web and systems.
- Referral. 7% of a referred client's first job, business or agency, paid within 15 days of the final payment on that job.
Our starting points are published on the site. They are floors, not quotes, and every engagement is priced in a written scope. We may decline requests that are unlawful, defamatory, or infringing.
Billing and cancellation
Project work and agency production are billed in US dollars, per the scope document for that project.
Referral commission is paid on revenue we have collected, after the client pays us.
If a payment fails, we will let you know and retry. If it is still unresolved after 7 days, we may pause work until it is settled. We may change pricing with at least 90 days' written notice before your next cycle; if you do not agree, you can end the engagement before it takes effect.
We do not issue partial refunds for a period already worked.
Work you own, and how we can show it
Ownership. Once you've given final approval on a deliverable and your account is paid up, the final files we deliver are yours. Use them anywhere, forever: ads, social, print, web, email, decks, internal materials. No per-use fees, no expiration. On agency jobs, the working design files and the code are yours too, on the same terms. Raw footage and project files are quoted in the scope document.
Limits. You can't resell or redistribute the work as standalone files or as part of a template or stock-asset library, and you can't claim you created it, except white-label work, which an agency delivers as its own. Any third-party assets inside your files, like stock photos, licensed fonts and licensed music, stay under their own licenses; owning the files doesn't transfer those.
Our portfolio. We keep the right to show completed work in our portfolio, case studies, and social. White-label work is the exception: we never show it without the agency's written OK. We name a client or share results only with their permission. If any other project needs to stay private, tell us in writing before we start and we'll work with you.
Before approval. Work we haven't delivered and you haven't approved, along with our own tools, systems, site, and trademarks, remain ours.
Using the services responsibly
You agree not to:
- Use the services for anything unlawful or in any way that breaks these Terms.
- Try to gain unauthorized access to any part of the services, accounts, or connected networks.
- Reverse engineer or extract source code, except where the law allows it regardless.
- Interfere with, disrupt, or put an unreasonable load on the services.
- Use scrapers, bots, or crawlers to access the services without our written permission.
Accounts
If your use requires an account, you're responsible for keeping your credentials confidential and for activity under your account. Tell us right away if you suspect unauthorized use.
Third-party platforms
Our services may rely on or connect to third-party platforms. Your use of those is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We're not responsible for their availability, content, or practices.
Disclaimers
The services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We don't warrant that the services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or perfectly secure.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Style Driven isn't liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim arising from these Terms or the services is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Style Driven and its team and partners from any claim, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the services or your breach of these Terms.
If there's a dispute
We both agree to try to resolve any dispute by talking first. Either side can start by sending a written description of the issue to the other's contact email, and we'll negotiate in good faith for at least 30 days before any formal action. If that doesn't resolve it, the dispute goes to the courts of the State of North Carolina, USA.
Suspension & termination
We may suspend or end your access if we believe you've broken these Terms or if continuing would harm us or other clients. You can stop using the services at any time.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. When we do, we'll change the effective date at the top, and continued use means you accept the update.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes are resolved in the courts of the State of North Carolina, USA.
