Freelance

An initial price estimate will be provided before work begins. Before starting and accepting a commission, I take a non-refundable deposit of 50% the initial estimate. Once I have recieved this deposit, I consider the commision active and will begin work. All payments should be done through PayPal.

Please Note: The final price of a commission may change due to increases or decreases in workload. Any changes in price will be reflected in the final payment, upon completion of the project. Commissions only encompass the features listed in the price-breakdown document I provide. Major changes or additions will be treated as separate commissions.

In the unlikely event that the final payment is not sent, or otherwise heavily delayed, I reserve the right to take down a project until full payment is recieved.

I maintain ownership of all original content, code, assets, etc that are developed, purchased, or otherwise acquired for a Commission.

If any assets require purchase, the price of the asset will be added to the commission price and I will purchase it. Except for very specific, case-by-case, circumstances, I strongly prefer to purchase any assets required for the completion of a commission myself.

I do not offer Exclusivity by default for Commissions. If Feature Exclusivity is something you would like, we can discuss it before work begins. Exclusivity will likely result in a higher rate being charged, and subsequently a higher price.

However, (by default) the price you pay for a feature will be the minimum value charged for a (very) similar feature in the future, based on feature-specifics. Since I prefer to tailor commission features to best match the individual's desires, code reuse is often minimal.

Unless an agreement is made prior to starting a commission, I only distribute commission source code on a case-by-case basis (and only ever to the commissioner). In some cases, I may choose to distribute a project's source with an additional charge and without in others.

Source Code will only be distributed after final payment has been made.
