Terms & Conditions
Please read these Terms & Conditions before using our services.
1. Definitions
“We”, “Us”, “Our”, and “WBL-DEV” refer to Wilhelm Burger T/A WBL-DEV, the service provider of website design and development services described in these Terms & Conditions.
2. Overview
These Terms & Conditions govern all services provided by WBL-DEV. By engaging Our services, you agree to be bound by these terms.
3. Services
We design and develop WordPress websites using Elementor, including 1–5 page structured websites, mobile responsiveness, and basic SEO setup.
We also provide custom development services using CodeIgniter 4, API integrations, and MySQL database systems, subject to availability and separate quotation.
4. NO RISK Website Build
We offer a “NO RISK” website build model for standard WordPress websites. This applies to simple 1–5 page websites consisting of structured content, including text, images, and basic business information.
This includes brochure-style websites such as home, about, services, and contact pages, with standard functionality such as forms and social links.
The “NO RISK” model does not apply to websites requiring advanced or custom functionality, including but not limited to booking systems, eCommerce, membership systems, custom integrations, or database-driven features. Such projects require a separate quotation and upfront agreement.
Under the “NO RISK” model, We build your website → you review it → you only pay if you are satisfied.
If you choose not to proceed after the review phase, you are under no obligation to make payment, and no website files, designs, or assets will be transferred.
5. Project Process
All projects follow a structured workflow: We build → You review → You approve → Final handover. Clients may request reasonable changes during the review stage.
6. Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing all required content, including text, images, and business details. Delays in providing content may result in project delays.
7. Revisions
Reasonable revisions are included during the review stage. Additional changes outside the agreed scope may be quoted separately.
8. Third-Party Services
Websites may use third-party tools, plugins, hosting providers, or services. We are not responsible for their performance, availability, pricing, or policies.
Hosting services are provided via third-party providers and may not be physically located in all advertised regions.
9. Limitation of Liability
We are not liable for any loss of revenue, business, data, or reputation resulting from website use, downtime, hosting issues, or external service failures.
10. Acceptance
By engaging Our services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms & Conditions.
