Last revised: January 2013

The initial contract with Applebox Designs will specify whether control of site maintenance resides with Applebox Designs or the Client.

At present, unless such an agreement forms part of the contract, Applebox Designs cannot arrange transfer of control of site maintenance (including Domain Name registration, if applicable) from Applebox Designs to the Client during the contract period.

Sites Maintained by Applebox Designs:
For my part I undertake, on payment of the Maintenance Fee, to fulfill for the period of the contract an unlimited number of updates to the contracted site design.

For your part you accept that Applebox Designs retains permanent control of the site maintenance.

Sites Maintained by the Client:
For your part, if as part of the initial contract, you have negotiated with Applebox Designs to undertake your own site maintenance, changes to the site are restricted to content only and you agree to make no changes to the overall design. Any design changes, by yourself or another contracted designer will result in further action which could include termination of your contract and possible legal action taken.
