Legal
Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of this website and any 3D art production services provided by WorldForge, unless a signed statement of work says otherwise.
Last updated: [Date]
Requires legal review. This document is a template. Every [Jurisdiction] placeholder and bracketed value must be completed and the full text reviewed by qualified counsel before publication.
1. Acceptance
By using this website or engaging WorldForge, you agree to these terms. If you accept on behalf of a company, you confirm you are authorised to bind that company.
2. Services and statements of work
Production work is defined in a written statement of work (SOW) specifying deliverables, asset counts, technical budgets, milestones, review rounds, and fees. Where an SOW conflicts with these terms, the SOW governs for that engagement.
3. Client responsibilities
- Provide references, technical specifications, and engine requirements before kickoff.
- Return consolidated feedback within the review windows stated in the SOW.
- Confirm you hold the rights to any material supplied to us.
4. Fees and payment
Unless the SOW states otherwise, engagements require a deposit of [Deposit %] before work begins, with remaining milestones invoiced on approval. Invoices are payable within [Payment Term] days. Late amounts may accrue interest at the maximum rate permitted in [Jurisdiction].
5. Revisions and scope changes
Each milestone includes the number of review rounds stated in the SOW. Additional rounds, added assets, or direction changes after approval are billed as a change order at [Hourly Rate] or an agreed fixed fee.
6. Intellectual property
Ownership of final delivered assets transfers to the client upon receipt of full payment. WorldForge retains ownership of its pre-existing tools, scripts, base meshes, and generic libraries, and grants a non-exclusive licence to use them as embedded in the deliverables.
7. Portfolio rights
Unless the SOW restricts it, WorldForge may display delivered work in its portfolio and marketing after the client's public release or after [Embargo Period], whichever is earlier.
8. Confidentiality
Each party will protect the other's confidential information and use it only to perform the engagement. This obligation survives termination for [Confidentiality Period].
9. Warranties and liability
Services are provided with reasonable skill and care. To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of [Jurisdiction], WorldForge is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses, and total liability is limited to the fees paid for the affected milestone.
10. Termination
Either party may terminate with [Notice Period] written notice. The client pays for work completed and work in progress up to the termination date; delivery of in-progress assets follows payment.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [Jurisdiction], and the courts of [Jurisdiction] have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute.
