Terms and Conditions

Elev8Depictions Sole trader: Kort Bebbington Hazkort House, Telford, TF1 5EJ Email: kortbebbington@gmail.com Website: elev8depictions.com Not VAT registered.

Last updated: 11 August 2026


Read this first: the short version

  1. The demo website is free. No cost, no obligation, no card details, no catch. If you do not want it, you owe nothing.
  2. If you want to go live, you join the Website and App Care Plan at £149 per month. There is no separate build fee. The website is delivered as part of the plan.
  3. The plan has a minimum term of 3 months. That is £447 in total.
  4. You can cancel whenever you like. But if you cancel before you have made all 3 monthly payments, the remaining months of the minimum term become payable straight away and will be invoiced or charged to your card. Example: you cancel after paying month 1, so £298 (months 2 and 3) is due.
  5. After the 3 months are done, the plan simply rolls on month to month. From that point you can cancel any time, with nothing further to pay.
  6. The plan renews automatically each month by card payment until you cancel. Cancelling is your responsibility, not ours. We will not chase you to see if you still want it.
  7. You own your website. When you leave, you can take it with you. No lock-in, no exit fee beyond any unpaid minimum-term months.

Everything below explains those points properly. If anything is unclear, email kortbebbington@gmail.com and ask before you sign up.

1. Who these terms are between

1.1These terms are between Elev8Depictions, a sole trader business run by Kort Bebbington of Hazkort House, Telford, TF1 5EJ ("we", "us", "our"), and you, the person or business taking the plan ("you", "the client").


1.2Elev8Depictions is not VAT registered, so no VAT is added to our prices. All prices shown are the total price you pay.


1.3Most of our clients are businesses (sole traders, partnerships or limited companies). Some are consumers. Section 14 sets out extra rights that apply only if you are a consumer, meaning you are buying for purposes wholly or mainly outside a trade, business, craft or profession.

2. The free demo

2.1We usually build you a demo website first, at our own cost, before you have paid us anything.


2.2The demo is free and carries no obligation. You do not have to take the plan. You do not have to give us card details to see it. You do not have to give a reason for saying no.


2.3While the demo is unpaid it stays our property and stays on our own hosting. It is set up so search engines do not index it. We normally keep a free demo online for about 14 days, then take it down. Ask us if you need longer.


2.4If you do not take the plan, you do not get the demo files. Ownership passes to you when you join the plan (see section 9).

3. The Website and App Care Plan

3.1The plan costs £149 per month.


3.2There is no one-off build fee. Your website is designed, built, launched and looked after as part of the monthly plan.


3.3The plan includes:

  • Unlimited content changes (see section 8 for what counts, and fair use)
  • Website hosting
  • Domain and SSL certificate handling
  • Uptime monitoring
  • Regular backups
  • Search visibility upkeep
  • Performance upkeep
  • Priority WhatsApp support

3.4The plan does not include anything not listed above. Extra work, such as a second website, a new online shop, a booking system, custom software, paid advertising, photography, video or copywriting for a whole new site, is quoted separately and agreed in writing before we start.


3.5Third-party costs are passed on at cost and are not part of the £149 unless we have said so in writing. Domain registration fees are the most common example.

4. Minimum term, and what happens if you cancel early

This is the most important section. Please read it.


4.1The plan has a minimum term of 3 months, starting on the date of your first payment.


4.2Over the minimum term you will pay 3 payments of £149, which is £447 in total.


4.3You can cancel at any time

, and we will not argue with you or make it difficult. During the minimum term, the self-cancel button is not shown in the billing portal, because the plan is a three month commitment. To cancel during those three months, email us (section 7.1) and we will action it, with the remaining minimum-term payments falling due under 4.4. Once the three months are paid, the self-cancel button appears in the portal and you can end the plan yourself, any time, with nothing further to pay.


4.4But if you cancel before all 3 payments of the minimum term have been made, the remaining months of the minimum term become immediately payable. We will invoice you for them, or charge them to the card on file, or both. For example:

You cancel after You have paid Still owed
Month 1 £149 £298
Month 2 £298 £149
Month 3 or later £447 or more £0

4.5This is not a penalty.

The website is designed and built up front, in full, before your first payment even clears. The £447 is the price of the site plus its first three months of care, split into three so you do not have to pay it in one go. The minimum term is how we get paid for work that has already been done.


4.6After the minimum term

the plan continues automatically from month to month. From then on you can cancel at any time with nothing further to pay. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for, and we will not take another payment.


4.7We may increase the monthly price after the minimum term. We will give you at least 30 days' notice in writing. If you do not want to pay the new price you can cancel before it starts, and nothing further will be owed.

5. The 6 month option

5.1We sometimes offer an alternative: the same total spread over 6 months at £74.50 per month.


5.2This option is non-cancellable for the full 6 months. All 6 payments are due. If you stop paying, the remaining payments become immediately payable in the same way as section 4.4.


5.3At the end of the 6 months the plan ends automatically. It does not roll on and we will not keep charging you. If you want to carry on, you tell us and we start a fresh plan at the then-current price.


5.4This option is only available if we have offered it to you and confirmed it in writing. If nothing has been said, you are on the standard £149 plan in section 4.

Back to the contents


6. Payment, and how you accept these terms

6.1Payments are taken by card through Stripe, as a continuous recurring payment (a subscription). Stripe processes the payment, we do not see or store your full card details.


6.2By starting the plan and making your first payment, you accept these terms. That is the point of acceptance. It does not matter whether a paper contract was signed. Making the first payment means you have read and agreed to this document, including the minimum term in section 4.


6.3We will send you a link to these terms before your first payment. Please read them first. If you have not read them, do not pay.


6.4Payments recur automatically on the same date each month until you cancel under section 7. Auto-renewal is the default and it is your responsibility to cancel if you no longer want the service. We are not obliged to remind you, check in with you, or ask whether you still want the plan.


6.5Each payment covers the month ahead. Payments are for the service being available to you, not for a set number of hours or tasks.

7. How to cancel

7.1To cancel, do one of these:

  • Email kortbebbington@gmail.com with the words "cancel my plan" and your business name, from the email address linked to your account. This route works at any time, including during the minimum term; or
  • Cancel the subscription yourself in the Stripe customer portal, using the "manage billing" link on your invoices or receipts. This route becomes available once the three month minimum term has been paid. During the minimum term the button is not shown, so use email instead.

7.2That is it.

Two clear routes, both in writing, both leaving a record. Email always works; the portal button works from month four onwards.


7.3A cancellation only counts once we have received it by one of the two methods in 7.1. A WhatsApp message, a text, a phone call, a verbal comment in a meeting, or telling us "I might stop soon" is not a cancellation. If you have tried to cancel and are not sure it went through, email us and ask us to confirm. We will confirm every cancellation in writing.


7.4When it takes effect.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of the monthly period you have already paid for. You keep the service until then. We do not give part-month refunds for the remainder of a paid month.


7.5Cancelling does not wipe out money you already owe. If you cancel during the minimum term, the remaining minimum-term payments in section 4.4 are still due, and cancelling the Stripe subscription does not cancel that debt. We will invoice you for the balance and payment is due within 7 days.


7.6We can also cancel.

We may end the plan by giving you 30 days' notice in writing. If we do that during your minimum term, we will not charge you for the remaining minimum-term months, and you keep your website under section 9.


7.7We may end the plan immediately if you do not pay (section 10), if you use the service for anything illegal, or if you are abusive to us. In that case any remaining minimum-term payments are still due.

8. Unlimited changes, and fair use

8.1"Unlimited content changes" means the everyday updates a real business needs: text edits, price changes, new photos, new team members, opening hours, new testimonials, adding or removing a service page, swapping images, fixing a typo, updating a phone number, seasonal offers, and similar.


8.2There is no monthly cap on the number of requests and no charge per change. Send as many as you need. Normal turnaround is 1 to 2 working days for small changes. We will tell you if something will take longer.


8.3Fair use.

"Unlimited" covers changes to your existing website. It does not cover:

  • A complete redesign or rebuild of the site from scratch (one refresh per 12 months on the plan is included, beyond that it is quoted)
  • A second website, a separate landing-page campaign, or a new brand
  • Building an online shop, booking system, member area, app, or custom software that was not part of the original build
  • Ongoing content writing, blog writing, photography, videography or graphic design as a service
  • Work on websites, systems or platforms we did not build
  • Marketing services such as running paid ads, managing social media, or email campaigns
  • Requests that are really a new project wearing a small hat

8.4If a request falls outside fair use, we will say so before doing any work, tell you what it would cost, and let you decide. We will never do chargeable work without your agreement first.


8.5We may decline requests that are unlawful, misleading, discriminatory, or that would damage the site's security, accessibility or search performance. We will explain why and suggest an alternative.

9. Who owns what

9.1You own your website.

Once you have joined the plan, the design and code of your site are yours.


9.2You can take it with you.

If you leave, ask and we will give you a complete copy of your website files, plus plain-English instructions for hosting it elsewhere. We do this free of charge, once, within 14 days of your final payment clearing. There is no exit fee.


9.3Your domain is yours.

If we registered or manage a domain for you, we will transfer it or release it to you or to your new provider on request. We will not hold a domain hostage. Where a domain was registered by us on your behalf, transfer is subject to the registrar's own rules and any registrar transfer fee.


9.4Your content is yours.

Your text, photos, logo and customer data belong to you. You confirm you have the right to use anything you send us, and that it does not infringe anyone else's copyright.


9.5Our tools stay ours.

Any reusable code, components, templates or internal tools we have built and used across multiple clients remain ours. You get a permanent, free licence to keep using them as part of your site. This does not stop you using or editing your site in any way.


9.6Hosting stops when the plan stops.

Hosting is part of the plan. When the plan ends, we will keep your site live for 14 days after your final paid period ends, so you have time to move. After that it comes down. Ask us if you need longer and we will usually say yes.


9.7Data and backups.

We keep backups while you are on the plan. Request your data before you leave. We may delete backups and files 30 days after the plan ends. Export anything you need before then.


9.8Third-party accounts in your name (for example your domain registrar, Google Business Profile, or any payment processor) stay yours throughout.

10. Failed payments and non-payment

10.1If a payment fails, Stripe will automatically retry it over the following days. We will also email you.


10.2If a payment is still unpaid 7 days after the due date, we may pause work on your site, including content changes and support.


10.3If a payment is still unpaid 14 days after the due date, we may suspend your website (take it offline and show a holding page) until the account is brought up to date. We will always warn you in writing before we do this.


10.4If a payment is still unpaid 30 days after the due date, we may end the plan. Any remaining minimum-term payments become immediately due.


10.5On late payments from business clients we may charge interest and fixed compensation under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.


10.6If we have to instruct a debt recovery agent or a solicitor to recover money you owe, you will be responsible for our reasonable costs of doing so.

Back to the contents


11. Chargebacks

11.1If you believe you have been charged incorrectly, contact us first. Email kortbebbington@gmail.com. We will look at it the same working day where we can, and if we have made a mistake we will refund it without argument.


11.2Raising a chargeback or payment dispute for money that was correctly charged is a breach of these terms. This includes disputing a minimum-term payment or an early-cancellation invoice that is properly due under section 4.


11.3If you raise a chargeback for a correctly charged amount:

  • You remain liable for the full amount charged
  • You are also liable for any chargeback fee our payment provider charges us
  • You are also liable for our reasonable costs of recovering the money, including debt recovery and legal costs
  • We may suspend or end your service immediately
  • We may pursue the debt through the county court, and we will produce our records as evidence

11.4The evidence we keep.

For every client we keep a record of these terms as they stood on the day you joined, the date and time you were sent them, your Stripe subscription record showing what you agreed to and when, your first payment, all invoices and receipts, and all written correspondence including your cancellation request. This is what we would submit to a payment provider or a court in response to a dispute.


11.5Nothing in this section stops you making a genuine claim about a genuine error, or affects a consumer's statutory rights under section 14.

12. What we promise, and what we cannot promise

12.1We will carry out our work with reasonable care and skill.


12.2We will fix, at no cost, any fault in work we have built, as long as you are on the plan.


12.3What we cannot promise.

We cannot promise a specific position in Google, a specific number of enquiries, a specific amount of revenue, or a specific level of traffic. Search engines make their own decisions and change their rules regularly. "Search visibility upkeep" means we do the technical and content work properly and keep it maintained. It is not a guarantee of ranking.


12.4Third parties are outside our control.

Your website depends on services we do not own or run, including but not limited to Vercel and other hosting providers, Cloudflare, Stripe, domain registrars, email providers, Google (including Search, Analytics and Business Profile), mapping services, and your own internet connection. If one of those has an outage, changes its rules, changes its pricing, or suspends an account, that is not something we can prevent, and we are not liable for it. We will tell you what has happened and help you get it fixed as quickly as we can.


12.5Uptime.

We monitor your site and act quickly if it goes down. We do not offer a guaranteed uptime percentage or service credits, because the underlying hosting is not ours.


12.6You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of the content you give us, including prices, claims, qualifications, insurance details and any regulated information.

Back to the contents


13. Limits on our liability

13.1Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited.


13.2Subject to 13.1, and where you are a business, our total liability to you for all claims arising out of or in connection with the plan is limited to the total amount you have actually paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.


13.3Subject to 13.1, and where you are a business, we are not liable for loss of profit, loss of business, loss of contracts, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goodwill, loss of data, or any indirect or consequential loss.


13.4We are not liable for failures caused by events outside our reasonable control, including third-party outages (see 12.4), power or internet failure, cyber attack, fire, flood, serious illness, or changes in the law.


13.5We strongly recommend you keep your own copy of your website content and any customer data collected through your site. We take backups, but you should not rely on us as your only copy.


13.6If you are a consumer, section 13.2 and 13.3 do not apply to you in a way that would reduce your statutory rights. See section 14.

Back to the contents


14. If you are a consumer

This section applies only if you are buying as a consumer, meaning wholly or mainly outside a trade, business, craft or profession. If you are a sole trader, a limited company or any other business buying a website for that business, this section does not apply to you.


14.1Your 14 day right to cancel.

Because you are buying at a distance (online, by phone, by email or by message rather than face to face at our premises), you have the right under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 to cancel within 14 days of entering into the contract, without giving a reason.


14.2How to use it.

Email kortbebbington@gmail.com within 14 days and say you are cancelling. A clear statement is enough. We will confirm in writing and refund you under 14.4.


14.3Starting work during the 14 days.

Our whole model is that we build first and you pay after. That means work normally begins immediately. If you ask us to begin work during the 14 day cancellation period, you are making an express request for the service to start early, and you acknowledge that:

  • If you then cancel within the 14 days, you must pay a fair amount for the service actually provided up to the point you told us you were cancelling, in proportion to the full contract; and
  • Once the service has been fully performed within the 14 days and you gave your express request plus your acknowledgement that you would lose the right to cancel on full performance, the right to cancel is lost.

We will ask you to confirm this in writing (an email reply is fine) before we start. If you would rather we waited until the 14 days are up, just say so and we will wait.


14.4Refunds.

Where a refund is due under 14.1, we will refund within 14 days of you telling us you are cancelling, using the same payment method you used, less any fair amount due under 14.3.


14.5Your statutory rights are not affected.

Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 our service must be carried out with reasonable care and skill, within a reasonable time, and for a reasonable price where no price was agreed. Nothing in these terms takes those rights away or limits them, and if anything in these terms conflicts with your statutory rights, your statutory rights win.


14.6The minimum term still applies to consumers

, but only to the extent it is fair under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Sections 4.4 and 4.5 explain the reason for the minimum term: the website is built in full before the first payment, and the three payments together are the price of that work.


14.7If you are unhappy, contact us first at kortbebbington@gmail.com and we will try to sort it out. If we cannot, you may be able to use an alternative dispute resolution service or take the matter to court.

Back to the contents


15. General

15.1Communication.

Day to day we use WhatsApp and email. Anything formal (cancellation, notice, a dispute) must be in writing by email to kortbebbington@gmail.com so there is a record.


15.2Changes to these terms.

We may update these terms. If a change affects you materially, we will give you at least 30 days' notice by email. If you do not accept the change, you may cancel before it takes effect, subject to any minimum term still running. Changes never apply retrospectively to money already owed.


15.3Confidentiality.

We keep your business information confidential and will not share it, other than with the suppliers we need to use to run your website, or where the law requires it.


15.4Portfolio.

We may show your website, its screenshots, and a short description of the work in our portfolio, on our own website, and on our social media, unless you ask us in writing not to. We will not publish your commercially sensitive information.


15.5Data protection.

We handle personal data in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where we process personal data collected through your website, we do so on your instructions as your processor. See our privacy notice on elev8depictions.com.


15.6Backlink.

Every site we build carries a small credit link to elev8depictions.com in the footer. This is part of the deal at this price. If you want it removed, ask and we will quote separately.


15.7Transfer.

You may not transfer these terms to someone else without our written agreement. If you sell your business, contact us and we will normally agree to transfer the plan to the new owner.


15.8If part of this fails.

If any clause turns out to be unenforceable, the rest of the terms carry on unaffected.


15.9Whole agreement.

These terms, plus any written quote or proposal we have given you, are the whole agreement between us. They replace anything said beforehand.


15.10Third parties.

Nobody other than you and us has any rights under these terms.

15.11Headings.

The numbered headings in these terms form part of them and are read as part of the clause they sit above. They are there to help you find things, and they mean what they say.

16. Governing law

16.1These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.


16.2Any dispute will be dealt with by the courts of England and Wales. If you are a consumer living in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in your own country's courts.
