Terms & Conditions

1. Scope & Provider

These Terms & Conditions (the "Terms") govern the relationship between:

And any client, user, or business partner (the "Client") engaging with our services, websites, or entering into contracts with Minerva Visuals.

2. Services & Project Initiation

Minerva Visuals provides branding, digital strategy, photography, web development, and related creative services. The specific scope, timeline, deliverables, and fees for any project are defined in a separate written proposal or service contract signed by both parties.

Any initial inquiry, proposal estimate, or quote provided via email or our website forms is non-binding until a formal agreement is entered into. We reserve the right to decline project inquiries without specifying reasons.

3. Intellectual Property & Usage Rights

Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing in the service contract:

• Our Intellectual Property: All content, designs, custom code, graphics, layout concepts, and works created by Minerva Visuals on our website and during project preparation remain our intellectual property.
• Client License: Upon full payment of all project fees, the Client is granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license to use the final design deliverables for their intended business purpose.
• Source Files: Ownership of source files, working templates, or raw photography files remains with Minerva Visuals unless transfer of source ownership is explicitly purchased by the Client.

4. Fees, Invoicing & Payments

All fees are invoiced in accordance with the payment milestones agreed upon in the project contract. By default, creative services require a 50% deposit before work begins, and the remaining 50% upon project approval before final hand-off or launch.

Invoices are issued digitally and are payable in Euros (€) via bank transfer. Unless otherwise specified, the default payment term is 14 days from the date of invoice issuance. Late payments may incur standard statutory interest charges under Section 369a of the Slovak Commercial Code (Obchodný zákonník).

5. Liability & Warranties

Minerva Visuals warrants that all custom deliverables will be created in a professional manner. We make no warranties that website functions or platforms will be completely uninterrupted or error-free permanently, as hosting and CMS platforms depend on third-party software updates.

• We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business interruption.
• Our total liability under any agreement is limited to the total amount of fees paid by the Client to Minerva Visuals for the specific project package.
• The Client assumes full legal responsibility for verifying that any copy, trademarks, or materials they provide to us for the project do not infringe on third-party rights.

6. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
