Legal
Website Terms
Terms for using this website. Every client project is governed by its own written agreement.
Effective September 12, 2026
Using this website
You may use this website to learn about Websites by Sam, review services and example work, and submit a legitimate project inquiry. You agree not to misuse the website, interfere with its operation, attempt unauthorized access, submit harmful material, or use the contact form for spam or unlawful activity.
Website information and estimates
Information on this website is provided for general marketing and informational purposes. Package descriptions, payment percentages, care-plan summaries, timelines, and starting prices do not create a binding offer or guarantee availability. A project begins only after both parties approve a separate written agreement and the required initial payment is received.
Project agreements
Each client project is governed by a separate proposal or agreement that identifies the scope, deliverables, timeline, revision process, responsibilities, ownership, support, cancellation terms, and third-party costs. If these website terms conflict with a signed client agreement, the signed agreement controls for that project.
Payments and scope changes
Unless a written agreement states otherwise, the standard payment schedule is 50% after the scope and agreement are approved, 25% after the primary design is approved, and the final 25% before launch. Work outside the approved scope may require a change order, additional payment, and a revised timeline.
Payments are collected through secure invoices or hosted checkout pages. Do not send card or bank information through the contact form or ordinary email.
Client responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing accurate information, feedback, approvals, and materials they have the right to use. A project timeline may change when content, access, approvals, or other required materials are delayed.
Third-party services
Websites may connect with hosting, domain, payment, point-of-sale, booking, analytics, artificial intelligence, and other third-party services. Those services are governed by their own terms, pricing, availability, and policies. Compatibility is reviewed during project planning but cannot be guaranteed indefinitely.
Ongoing care
Care plans cover only the services described in the applicable plan and client agreement. Unless otherwise stated, unused update time does not roll over. Redesigns, new pages, platform migrations, substantial new functionality, and third-party fees are separate from routine maintenance.
Intellectual property
The original text, design, code, branding, and other materials on this website may not be copied, republished, or redistributed without permission. Ownership and licensing terms for client work are defined in the signed client agreement. Third-party names and marks belong to their respective owners.
No guarantee of business results
A professional website can support visibility, credibility, and a better customer experience, but specific search rankings, traffic, leads, sales, or revenue cannot be guaranteed.
Availability and limitation
The website is provided on an available basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Websites by Sam is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss arising from use of this marketing website or reliance on its general information.
Governing law and updates
These website terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The terms may be updated as services and business practices change, and the latest effective date will appear on this page.
