Upon completion and delivery of the project files to you, (excluding proof files), you acquire the rights to your purchase.

REVISIONS
Revisions entail minor adjustments in element placement, font changes (unless customized or fully animated), and slight color modifications. These revisions are aimed at small design tweaks and do not involve a complete overhaul, new concept, or any changes requiring additional research. Any modifications beyond the original order form may incur revision fees.
All artwork, such as logos, business cards, thank you cards, and flyers, are provided with three complimentary revisions. If more than three revisions are needed, a fee of $15 or more per revision will be applied and must be paid before any further revisions are carried out.
For websites, each page design includes three free revisions. Any additional revisions requested beyond the three complimentary rounds will incur a fee of $15 per revision. Please note that this fee must be paid before any revisions are made. Changes not listed in the original order form may cause delays. The client is accountable for the accuracy of spelling, dates, information, and wording in all designs, unless otherwise specified. Revisions are exclusively conducted during the creation phase, and the turnaround time depends on the nature of the revision.
REFUNDS AND CANCELLATIONS
Dessie Creative Studios has a strict no-refund policy for any series of projects or services, unless mutually agreed upon, particularly after work (including proofs) has commenced or labor has begun. Refunds will not be issued due to client's buyer's remorse. Once payment is processed, the project starts and the final design is delivered within the specified turnaround time. In the event of a dispute during the project, the order will be canceled, and no drafts or final projects will be provided. All designs, concepts, sketches, and digital files created for the project remain the property and copyright of the designer.
