Development will proceed in the milestones described in a full redesign of the Acme Bakery marketing website, including a new homepage, menu page, and online ordering integration, with a target completion date of October 11, 2026.

Payment Terms
The total fee for this engagement is $2,400.00, payable in milestones tied to the deliverables in a full redesign of the Acme Bakery marketing website, including a new homepage, menu page, and online ordering integration.
A deposit of $720.00 is due before work begins. Remaining milestone payments are invoiced as each phase is completed and are due within 7 days of the invoice.
Late payments may accrue a 1.5% monthly late fee, and work on subsequent milestones may be paused until outstanding balances are settled.
Source Code & Ownership
Upon receipt of full payment, the Client receives ownership of all custom source code written for this project. Third-party libraries, frameworks, and plugins remain subject to their own licenses.
The Sender will provide access to the project repository and hand off all credentials/access needed to maintain the site upon final payment.
Testing & Post-Launch Support
The Sender will test all delivered functionality across current major browsers before handoff. This agreement includes 14 days of post-launch bug-fix support for defects in work delivered under this agreement; it does not cover new features, hosting, or third-party service costs.
Confidentiality
Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public business, technical, or financial information shared during this engagement, and to use it only for the purpose of completing the work described in a full redesign of the Acme Bakery marketing website, including a new homepage, menu page, and online ordering integration.
This obligation survives the completion or termination of this agreement and continues for 2 years afterward.
Independent Contractor Relationship
The Sender is engaged as an independent contractor, not an employee, partner, or agent of the Client. The Sender is responsible for their own taxes, insurance, and benefits, and is free to accept other engagements during the term of this agreement, provided they do not conflict with the confidentiality obligations above.
Termination
Either party may terminate this agreement with 14 days' written notice. If the Client terminates before completion, the Sender will be paid for all work completed up to the termination date, and the deposit is non-refundable.
If the Sender terminates, any portion of the deposit exceeding the value of work already completed will be refunded to the Client within 14 days.
Limitation of Liability
The Sender's total liability under this agreement is limited to the total fees paid by the Client. Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from this engagement.
