Terms and Conditions of Service

Business Name - Website Sprint

ABN - 62 690 247 722

Jurisdiction - Queensland, Australia

Effective Date - June 30, 2026

IMPORTANT NOTICE: This agreement operates under a subscription model with a zero-dollar ($0) upfront setup fee. Website Sprint retains complete legal and beneficial ownership of the website design, layout, asset files, and the custom domain name for the first twelve (12) consecutive months of active, paid subscription. Cancellation prior to the completion of twelve (12) months will result in the immediate decommissioning and unpublishing of the website, and the domain name shall remain the exclusive property of Website Sprint.

1. Agreement to Terms

By activating a subscription, making a payment, or otherwise accessing or using the services provided by Website Sprint (operating under ABN 62 690 247 722), you formally acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the entirety of these Terms and Conditions (the "Agreement"). This Agreement constitutes a legally binding contract between Website Sprint ("we", "us", or "our") and the individual or business entity purchasing the subscription ("Client", "you", or "your"). If you do not agree to these terms, you are strictly prohibited from using our services or activating a subscription.

2. Definitions

In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

  • "Service" refers to the provision of web design, front-end development, structural layout creation, digital hosting management, website maintenance, and custom domain procurement services performed by Website Sprint.

  • "Subscription" means the recurring month-to-month billing agreement under which the Client pays a specified fee every 30 days to maintain the operation and availability of the website.

  • "Client Content" means all text, business details, logos, trademarked assets, branding specifications, specific imagery, data, or other materials supplied by the Client to be incorporated into the website.

  • "Website Assets" encompasses the complete source code, visual designs, customized layout sheets, graphic assets, stock images, compiled database elements, and the custom domain name acquired or registered by Website Sprint for the execution of the Service.

3. Subscription Model and Billing Terms

  1. Month-to-Month Engagement: The Service is offered strictly on a flexible month-to-month subscription basis. There are no long-term locked contracts or mandatory multi-year commitments governing the relationship, except as specified regarding ownership transitions in Section 4 and Section 5.

  2. Subscription Fees: The standard rate for the Service is $199.00 AUD every thirty (30) days. This fee covers ongoing hosting, support, and structural license usage.

  3. Goods and Services Tax (GST): All advertised prices and base figures are exclusive of the ten percent (10%) Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST). In accordance with A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999, a 10% GST component will be calculated, detailed, and added to the transaction price at checkout and on all automated subsequent invoices.

  4. Billing Frequency and Automation: Fees are automatically deducted every 30 days from the payment method provided by the Client. The Client is entirely responsible for maintaining valid, functional, and sufficiently funded credit card or bank details on file.

  5. No Pro-Rata Refunds: Payments are processed on an advance-fee basis for the upcoming 30-day term. No refunds, partial credits, or pro-rata adjustments will be issued for cancellations requested partway through an active billing cycle.

4. Website and Domain Ownership Framework

  1. Zero Upfront Setup Incentive: Website Sprint develops, builds, configures, and launches the website for a $0 upfront setup fee.

  2. Retention of Legal Ownership: In consideration of the $0 upfront setup cost absorbed by us, Website Sprint explicitly retains one hundred percent (100%) legal, beneficial, and equitable ownership of the Website Assets. This retention extends to the website architecture, graphic compositions, operational file structures, layout frameworks, underlying code, and the registered custom domain name.

  3. Initial Twelve-Month Restriction: This absolute ownership framework remains in full effect for the first twelve (12) consecutive months of an active, fully paid subscription. During this initial 12-month window, the Client holds a temporary, non-transferable, revocable license to display and use the website solely in conjunction with our active subscription hosting service.

5. Asset Transfer and Ownership Evolution

  1. Transfer Eligibility Threshold: Full legal ownership of the custom domain name and the legal right to export the core text and specific informational website content will transfer to the Client only after twelve (12) consecutive, continuous, and successful monthly subscription payments ($199 AUD + GST per 30 days) have been cleared with zero payment failures.

  2. Execution of Transfer: Upon meeting the 12-month threshold, the Client may submit a formal written request to transfer the domain registry. Website Sprint will provide the necessary EPP/Auth codes and authorize the release to the Client's chosen registrar within a reasonable administrative period.

  3. Platform Dependencies and Exclusions: The Client expressly acknowledges that the website may be integrated into proprietary infrastructure, server stacks, or licensed content management frameworks managed by Website Sprint. While content elements and the domain name are transferable after 12 months, proprietary system code, base themes, operational plugins, or commercial server configurations are excluded from the transfer due to engineering and licensing boundaries.

6. Cancellation Policy and Deactivation Consequences

  1. Voluntary Cancellation Request: The Client can opt to cancel the month-to-month subscription at any point. Cancellation requests must be logged in writing via email or through the designated account dashboard at least three (3) business days prior to the next scheduled automated billing date.

  2. Consequences of Early Cancellation (Prior to 12 Months): If a cancellation is executed, or if the subscription lapses due to non-payment or credit card rejection, before the completion of twelve (12) consecutive paid months:

  • The website will be completely unpublished, taken offline, and decommissioned immediately upon the expiration of the final paid 30-day cycle.

  • The custom domain name remains the absolute and unencumbered property of Website Sprint. We reserve the full legal right to retain, delete, let lapse, redirect, or commercially repurpose the domain name.

  • The Client completely forfeits all access to, and rights over, the structural design, layout, asset files, templates, and server backups. No files, code packages, or archives will be compiled or transferred to the Client.

  1. Post-12 Month Cancellation Rights: If the Client requests a cancellation after successfully maintaining a continuous subscription for more than twelve (12) months, the live hosting instance will be disabled at the end of the billing cycle, but the custom domain name will be transferred to the Client, and assistance to export raw database content will be provided where technically feasible.

7. Client Obligations and Content Licenses

  1. Content Provisioning Responsibility: The Client is solely responsible for preparing, reviewing, and supplying all core text, marketing descriptions, operational data, legal company identifiers, and custom graphic materials required to complete the website project.

  2. Intellectual Property Indemnity: The Client warrants and guarantees that all Client Content provided does not violate, misappropriate, or infringe upon the patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or legal rights of any third party, and strictly adheres to all relevant Australian state and federal regulations.

  3. Operational License Grant: The Client hereby grants Website Sprint a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licensable license to host, replicate, modify, translate, format, and display the Client Content for the sole purpose of executing, maintaining, and managing the live web properties under this Agreement.

8. Warranties, Disclaimers, and System Availability

  1. "As-Is" Provisioning: To the maximum extent permitted under Australian law, the Service and the website platforms are delivered on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. Website Sprint makes no explicit or implicit promises, warranties, or assertions regarding search engine placement rankings, inbound click-through volumes, user engagement rates, sales generation, or specific business metrics.

  2. Network Disruptions and System Downtime: While we endeavor to ensure high server uptime and optimization, Website Sprint does not guarantee that the website infrastructure will remain uninterrupted, continuously accessible, or completely secure from external threats. Emergency infrastructure adjustments, vendor outages, or systematic updates may cause temporary offline status.

  3. Australian Consumer Law Safeguards: Nothing contained within these Terms and Conditions operates to exclude, restrict, or modify any statutory consumer guarantees, non-excludable rights, or legal remedies provided under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) or secondary state-level consumer protection enactments.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Website Sprint, its executive directors, officers, operational staff, or external independent contractors shall not under any circumstances be liable to the Client or any third-party claimant for indirect, incidental, punitive, collateral, or consequential damages. This exclusion covers, without limitation, direct loss of commercial profits, revenue shortfalls, enterprise data corruption, system downtime costs, business reputational damage, or the cost of sourcing substitute software infrastructure. This limitation applies regardless of whether the liability arises under breach of contract, tortious negligence, strict liability, or equity. Our cumulative liability for any verified legal claim under this Agreement shall never exceed the precise total financial sum paid by the Client to Website Sprint during the exact three (3) calendar months directly preceding the root incident.

10. Mutual Indemnification

The Client agrees to fully indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Website Sprint, its corporate entities, and associated personnel against any third-party lawsuits, legal assertions, government inquiries, regulatory fines, financial demands, and direct expenses (including comprehensive solicitor-and-client legal costs) that arise out of or relate directly to: (a) the nature, compliance, or substance of the Client Content; (b) a verified violation or material breach of any section within this Agreement by the Client; or (c) any unlawful business transactions, fraudulent conduct, or misleading trade representations executed by the Client utilizing the digital platforms hosted or constructed by Website Sprint.

11. Governing Law and Legal Jurisdiction

This Agreement, its structural execution, and any legal conflicts or interpretative disputes originating from it shall be strictly governed by, and interpreted in alignment with, the laws in force within the State of Queensland, Australia. Both the Client and Website Sprint irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of Queensland, and any federal appellate courts competent to evaluate judgements or handle legal procedures originating within that state.

12. Severability and Formal Amendments

  1. Severability Analysis: If any precise clause, paragraph, or specific word in this Agreement is ruled invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable by an authorized court of competent jurisdiction, that specific provision shall be appropriately severed or structurally limited. Such a determination will completely fail to affect or invalidate the residual clauses, which will continue to persist in full legal force and statutory effect.

  2. Unilateral Document Amendments: Website Sprint preserves the unilateral right to revise or adjust these Terms and Conditions to reflect changing legal demands or operational adjustments. We will distribute a formal notifications email highlighting structural changes to the Client at least thirty (30) days prior to the activation of the modified terms. The continuous maintenance and payment of the subscription service after the conclusion of the 30-day notice window establishes absolute legal acceptance of the updated document.
