Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 19 August 2026

Note: This document was drafted as a general starting point and has not been reviewed by a lawyer. Before publishing this site live or taking on paying clients, have it checked by a South African attorney — particularly the payment, liability, and cancellation sections, which should reflect your actual business practices. Replace any text marked like this with your real details.

1. Acceptance of These Terms

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of this website and any services provided by Lofty Dev, the creative and digital division of Lofty Investments [full registered name / registration number, if applicable] ("Lofty Dev", "we", "us"). By using this website, submitting an enquiry, or engaging Lofty Dev for a project, you agree to these terms.

2. Services

Lofty Dev provides logo and brand identity design, website design, signage and print preparation, and vehicle branding design and coordination. The exact scope of any project is agreed with the client individually before work begins, typically in writing (email or a signed quote/proposal).

3. Quotes & Pricing

Any pricing shared verbally, by email, or through this website is an estimate and not binding until confirmed in a written quote. Quotes are valid for 30 days from the date issued unless stated otherwise. Final pricing may vary based on project scope, revisions requested, or third-party costs (such as printing or installation).

4. Project Process & Revisions

Projects typically follow the process outlined on our website: brief, direction, design, development, production, and deployment. Unless otherwise agreed, each project includes two rounds of revisions. Additional revisions beyond this may incur extra charges, which will be communicated before the work is carried out.

5. Client Responsibilities

To deliver a project on time and to specification, we rely on the client to provide accurate information, timely feedback, and any required assets (such as existing logos, business information, images, or account access) when requested. Delays in providing this may delay the project timeline accordingly.

6. Intellectual Property

Ownership of final design files, logos, and website source files transfers to the client only once the project has been paid for in full. Until full payment is received, all work remains the intellectual property of Lofty Dev.

Unless a client specifically requests otherwise in writing, Lofty Dev retains the right to display completed work (designs, websites, signage, vehicle branding) in its own portfolio, website, and marketing materials.

7. Third-Party Production & Installation

Where a project involves physical production — printing, signage manufacture, or vehicle wrap application — this work is often carried out by third-party printers or installers coordinated by Lofty Dev. While we take care in selecting reliable partners, Lofty Dev is not liable for delays, defects, or errors caused directly by a third-party printer or installer, though we will assist in resolving any issues that arise.

8. Payment Terms

Unless otherwise agreed in writing: a deposit of [e.g. 50%] is required before work begins, with the balance due [before final files are released / before installation / on completion]. Late payment may result in paused work or delayed delivery of final files.

9. Cancellations & Refunds

If a client cancels a project after work has started, any deposit paid is non-refundable to the extent it covers work already completed. Refund requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis for work not yet started.

10. Business Visibility Check Tool

The "Business Visibility Check" quiz on this website is an informal, self-assessment tool intended to give a general indication of a business's visibility. It is not a professional audit, does not collect or store personal information, and its results should not be treated as a guarantee of any marketing outcome.

11. Website Use

You agree not to misuse this website — including attempting to gain unauthorised access, scraping content at scale, or using it for any unlawful purpose. All content on this site (text, design, and imagery) is the property of Lofty Dev unless otherwise credited, and may not be reproduced without permission.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Lofty Dev is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from the use of this website or our services, including loss of business, revenue, or data. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under South African law.

13. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, and any disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.

14. Changes to These Terms

Lofty Dev may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of this website or our services after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
