2.3 There are no upfront fees or deposits. You only begin paying once you have reviewed and approved the initial website draft.
2.4 Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time by logging into your account. Cancellation is immediate, and your licence to use the website design ends upon cancellation.
3. Website Ownership & Licensing
3.1 The website design, graphics, and other assets supplied by us remain our property. Your subscription grants a licence to use these elements for the duration of your subscription.
3.2 Any content you provide, including text, images, and branding materials, remains your property.

4.1 Domains registered as part of your subscription remain under your control for the duration of the subscription.
4.2 If you cancel, you may transfer the domain to another provider. Any registration or transfer fees charged by the new provider are your responsibility. We do not charge additional fees for releasing a domain.
4.3 Externally purchased domains cannot be used with the Services, due to technical, compatibility, and operational constraints.
5. Content & Assets
5.1 You are responsible for providing basic information about your business and services for use on the website.
