Terms of service.

Using this website

By using catalystworldwidesolutions.com, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.

• No warranty. The information on this website is provided for general informational purposes only. We make no guarantees about its completeness, accuracy, or fitness for any particular purpose. Nothing on this site is legal, financial, or professional advice.
• Intellectual property. All content on this site, including copy, design, graphics, code, logos, and trademarks, is the property of Catalyst Worldwide Solutions. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written permission.
• Third-party links. We may link to other websites. We aren’t responsible for their content, privacy practices, or accuracy.
• No unlawful use. You agree not to use this website for any unlawful purpose or in any way that could damage, disable, or impair the site or interfere with anyone else’s use of it.
• Availability. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the site at any time without notice.

When you hire us

The rest of these terms apply to all paid service engagements between Catalyst Worldwide Solutions and its clients. A signed proposal, statement of work, or written confirmation of engagement (including email confirmation) means you accept these terms.

Scope of services

The scope of services is defined in the proposal or statement of work we provide before the engagement starts. Work outside that scope, such as additional pages, new features, or revision rounds beyond those included, will be quoted separately and needs your written approval before we begin.

We may decline work that conflicts with our values, violates applicable law, or poses reputational risk to Catalyst Worldwide Solutions.

Payment terms

• Deposit. Most projects require a deposit (typically 50%) before work begins. The deposit is non-refundable once work has started.
• Invoices. Invoices are due within 14 days of issue unless the project proposal says otherwise.
• Late payments. Work may be paused on accounts more than 14 days past due. Accounts more than 30 days past due may be charged a late fee of 1.5% per month on the outstanding balance.
• Final delivery. Completed deliverables, login credentials, and file transfers are provided once final payment is received. We may hold delivery until payment is settled.
• Retainer services. Ongoing monthly services (SEO, maintenance, and similar) are billed monthly in advance. Service may be suspended if payment isn’t received within 14 days.

The 30-day launch guarantee

Where a 30-day launch guarantee is offered in writing as part of your proposal, we commit to launching your website within 30 calendar days of the project kickoff date, as long as:

• All required content (copy, images, logos, brand assets) reaches us within 5 business days of kickoff.
• All necessary access (domain, hosting, third-party accounts) is provided within 5 business days of our request.
• Feedback on design and copy is provided within 3 business days of each submission.
• The scope hasn’t materially changed from what was agreed at signing.

The 30-day clock pauses any time we’re waiting on content, access, or feedback from you. Days spent waiting don’t count toward the 30-day window. If these conditions aren’t met, the guarantee doesn’t apply to that engagement.

Client responsibilities

A successful project takes both of us. As a client, you agree to:

• Provide accurate, complete, and timely information, content, and approvals when we ask.
• Make sure the content you provide (text, images, video) doesn’t infringe anyone else’s intellectual property, and that you have the legal right to use it.
• Name a single point of contact who can approve deliverables for your business.
• Tell us promptly about changes to your business, brand, or needs that could affect the project.

Intellectual property

Your deliverables. Once we receive full payment, you own the final deliverables produced specifically for your project: the website design, copy, and custom code created for you.

What we keep. Catalyst Worldwide Solutions keeps ownership of the underlying frameworks, templates, methods, reusable code libraries, and tools used to build your deliverables. We may use anonymized project results and screenshots in our portfolio and marketing unless you ask us not to in writing when you sign.

Third-party assets. Licenses for stock photography, fonts, plugins, and third-party software bought for your project are yours to maintain after the project ends. We’ll list any such assets in the final handoff.

Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public business information shared during the engagement, including business strategy, financials, customer data, login credentials, and internal processes. This obligation continues after the engagement ends.

We won’t share your confidential information with third parties except when needed to deliver the services (for example, a hosting provider that needs access to deploy your site) or when the law requires it.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Catalyst Worldwide Solutions’ total liability to you for any claims arising from the services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, won’t exceed the total fees you paid for the specific project behind the claim in the 12 months before the claim.

We aren’t liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, even if we were told such damages were possible.

We don’t guarantee specific search rankings, traffic levels, or revenue from SEO, AEO, or any other service. Results depend on factors outside our control, including algorithm changes, competitors, and market conditions.

Termination

By you. You may end an engagement at any time with written notice. You’re responsible for paying for all work completed up to that date. Deposits are non-refundable once work has started.

By us. We may end an engagement if payments aren’t made, if the client is abusive, threatening, or acting unlawfully, or if the scope has changed so much that continuing at the agreed price isn’t feasible.

Handoff. When an engagement ends, we’ll deliver all completed work to you once any outstanding payments are received. Work in progress is delivered as it stands.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from these terms or a client engagement that can’t be resolved through good-faith negotiation will be settled by binding arbitration in Houston, Texas, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes will be posted here with a new effective date. For active client engagements, the terms in effect when you signed apply unless we both agree in writing to the updated terms.
