Terms of Service

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the FreelanceWriter.net website (the "Site") and any content writing services we provide ("Services"). By using the Site or engaging us for Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site or engage our Services.

You agree to use the Site lawfully and not to:

• Interfere with or disrupt the Site or any associated services

4. Project terms

4.1 Brief and scope

Each engagement is governed by the brief or statement of work agreed for that project. Changes to scope after work begins may extend timelines or adjust fees, agreed in writing.

4.2 Timelines

Delivery dates are estimates based on the scope at the time of agreement. Delays in providing source material, feedback, or approvals may extend the timeline accordingly.

4.3 Revisions

Unless otherwise agreed, projects include up to two rounds of revisions within the originally agreed scope. Additional revisions are quoted separately.

5. Payment

Prices are confirmed in writing before work starts and are in US dollars unless stated otherwise. Larger projects may require a deposit; smaller projects are typically invoiced on completion. Invoices are payable within the terms stated on them. Outstanding payments may pause further work.

6. Intellectual property

On full payment, ownership of the final deliverables transfers to you. Until then, deliverables remain ours. We may retain copies of completed work for our own records and, unless agreed otherwise, may reference engagements in general terms in our portfolio (without disclosing confidential information).

You confirm you have rights to any materials, brand assets, or source content you provide for use in deliverables. We are not responsible for infringement arising from materials you supply.

7. Confidentiality

Each party will keep confidential any non-public information shared during an engagement and use it only for the purposes of that engagement. Confidentiality continues to apply after the engagement ends. A separate non-disclosure agreement can be put in place on request.

8. Editorial standards

We may decline projects we consider misleading, unlawful, infringing, hateful, deceptive in their use of statistics, or otherwise inconsistent with reasonable editorial standards. We may also decline projects that lack a defined audience or measurable goal.

9. Warranties and disclaimers

We perform services with reasonable care and skill consistent with industry practice. We do not warrant that content will achieve specific business outcomes (such as a specific traffic number, search position, or revenue figure), since those outcomes depend on factors outside our control.

The Site and any information on it are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties beyond those that cannot be excluded by law.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability under any engagement is limited to the fees paid by the client for the specific work in question. Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profit, revenue, or data.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify us against third-party claims arising from materials you provided, your use of deliverables, or your breach of these Terms.

12. Termination

Either party may end an engagement with reasonable written notice. Fees for work completed up to the termination date remain payable. We may suspend or end work earlier for non-payment, material breach, or reasonable concern about unlawful or harmful use.

13. Force majeure

Neither party is liable for delays or failures caused by events outside its reasonable control, including natural disasters, conflict, pandemic, or major infrastructure failure.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of [Jurisdiction]. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction, unless the parties agree to alternative dispute resolution in writing.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When changes are material, we will update the "Last reviewed" date and, where relevant, give notice. Continued use of the Site or Services after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

16. General

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them to a successor.
