If you do not agree to all of the provisions set out below, you must not access the website or request our services.
These terms form a legally binding agreement between you and AlGray LLC. Where the term you or your is used throughout this document, it refers to the individual or organisation that accesses the website or engages our services. Where the terms we, us, or our are used, they refer to AlGray LLC and its authorised representatives.

3. Description of Services
AlGray LLC offers a range of professional services centred on systems design and monochrome visual identity. These services include the development of black and white brand systems, direction of grayscale photography, tone mapping and contrast auditing, print and publication design in black and white, the design of accessible gray interfaces, and archival and editorial layout work.
The website serves as a portfolio and a point of first contact for prospective clients. Engagement for any specific project is governed by a separate written proposal or contract that we prepare for each client. In the event of a conflict between these general terms and the specific proposal, the terms of the proposal will govern for that project.
The scope of a project is defined at the outset. Any work performed that falls outside the agreed scope is treated as an additional service and will be quoted for separately, and no additional service is undertaken without your prior approval. This approach ensures transparency around cost, schedule, and expectations at every stage of the working relationship. We encourage open and frequent communication so that the original brief remains aligned with the direction of the work as it develops.
4. Eligibility to Use the Site
You must be at least the age of sixteen to use the website or to submit information through it. By using the website you represent that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract where you request our services.
If you are using the website on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorised to act on behalf of that entity and that you are legally able to bind that entity to these terms. Where you purchase services on behalf of an organisation, references to you throughout these terms include that organisation.
5. Accounts and Contact Information
The website does not currently require you to create a user account in order to browse its content. You may choose to submit your contact details through the enquiry form, and when you do so you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information.
You are responsible for ensuring that the contact details you provide are correct so that we can reach you to discuss your project. You agree to notify us promptly if your contact information changes, so that we are able to communicate with you effectively. Where we provide a password-protected area for a client in the future, you will be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your access credentials.
6. Quotes, Proposals and Engagement
A request for a quote does not create a binding obligation on either party. Where you submit an enquiry through the website, we will review your requirements and, where appropriate, respond with an estimate or a written proposal describing the scope of work, the timeline, and the applicable fees.
Any estimate is provided on a preliminary basis and may be revised once the full scope of the work is understood. A binding engagement arises only when you accept our written proposal and any associated contract, and when any required deposit has been received. Until that acceptance is confirmed, no work is deemed to have been commissioned.
7. Fees, Payment and Taxes
The fees for our services are set out in the relevant proposal and invoice. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in United States dollars and are exclusive of any applicable taxes that may be added at the time of invoicing.
Payment terms, including any deposit requirement and the date on which the balance is due, are specified in the proposal or on the invoice. If a payment is not received by the due date, we may suspend work or delivery of the relevant deliverables until the outstanding amount is settled. Any applicable taxes are stated separately on the invoice and are your responsibility unless a valid exemption certificate is provided.
8. Deliverables and Ownership
The specific deliverables for each project are described in the written proposal. Upon receipt of full payment, ownership of the final, finished deliverables that are expressly identified as deliverables in the proposal transfers to you, subject to the intellectual property provisions of the next section.
Preliminary materials, including sketches, mood boards, drafts, and working files that are not identified as final deliverables, remain intellectual property belonging to AlGray LLC and are provided for your review only. Unless otherwise agreed, we retain the right to display project work in our portfolio.
9. Intellectual Property
All content on the website, including text, graphics, layouts, logos, the visual identity and the design system, is owned by or licensed to AlGray LLC and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. The developer Algray retains all rights in the software and technical systems that operate the website.
Where we deliver custom work for a client, and full payment has been received, we assign to the client the rights in the final deliverables as specified in the proposal. All pre-existing materials, frameworks, and design assets that are not created specifically for the client project remain the property of AlGray LLC and are licensed to the client only for use in the finished work.
Nothing in these terms grants you any right to use AlGray LLC trademarks, the AlGray name, or any part of the website content except as expressly permitted for normal browsing.
10. Acceptable Use of the Website
You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict the use and enjoyment of this site by any third party. You must not use the site to transmit any unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable material.
You must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the website, to the servers on which it is hosted, or to any other network connected to the site. You must not attempt to interfere with the proper working of the website, including through the transmission of viruses, malware, or any automated process that places an unreasonable load on our systems.
Any automated data extraction, scraping, or harvesting of content from the website is prohibited unless you have received our prior written consent. You agree to respect any technical measures that we use to protect the integrity of the site, and you must not circumvent, disable, or otherwise interfere with security-related features or any feature that restricts the use of the content.
11. Confidentiality
During the course of a project, AlGray LLC may receive confidential or proprietary information from you, and you may receive confidential information from us. Both parties agree to keep such information confidential and to use it only for the purpose of performing the engagement.
The obligation of confidentiality does not apply to information that is already public, that is independently developed, or that is required to be disclosed by law. Each party will take reasonable steps to protect the confidential information of the other and will not disclose it to any third party except as necessary to fulfil the engagement and on the same terms of confidentiality.
Upon the conclusion of an engagement, each party will return or destroy any confidential information in its possession at the written request of the other party, unless it is required to retain the information to comply with legal or regulatory obligations. We recognise that a strong relationship is built on trust, and we are committed to safeguarding the sensitive details that you share with us during the course of a project.
12. Warranties and Disclaimers
AlGray LLC will use reasonable skill and care in the provision of its services and will carry out its work in a professional manner consistent with industry practice. However, the website and any content presented on it are provided on an as available basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, free of errors, secure, or free of harmful components, and we do not warrant that the results of our work will meet every expectation, particularly where the final outcome depends on factors we do not control.
In all cases, we recommend that you review deliverables carefully and provide feedback during the review phases described in your proposal, so that any concerns can be addressed early. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any warranty, right, or remedy that cannot be lawfully excluded or limited under the laws of the jurisdiction that applies to your use of the services.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, AlGray LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of the website or the provision of services.
Our total aggregate liability to you, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, arising from or relating to a single engagement will not exceed the total fees you have paid to us for that engagement. Your sole remedy for any dissatisfaction with the website or the services is to stop using the website and to discontinue the engagement in accordance with these terms.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless AlGray LLC, its officers, affiliates, and the developer Algray from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, that arise out of or are related to your use of the website, your breach of these terms, or your violation of any applicable law or the rights of a third party.
This indemnification obligation survives the termination of your use of the website and the conclusion of any engagement.
15. Third-Party Content and Links
The website may include content provided by third parties and links to external websites or resources. These links are provided for your convenience, and AlGray LLC does not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party website.
Your use of any third-party website is governed by the terms and policies of that website. We recommend that you review the terms and privacy policies of any external site you visit before providing information to it.
16. Termination
Either party may terminate an engagement by providing written notice in accordance with the terms of the applicable proposal. Upon termination, you will be responsible for payment for all work completed up to the date of termination, together with any reasonable costs we have incurred.
We may terminate or suspend your access to the website at our discretion, without notice, if you breach any provision of these terms. Any provisions of these terms that by their nature should survive termination, including provisions relating to intellectual property, confidentiality, limitation of liability, and indemnification, will continue to apply.
17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These terms and any engagement governed by them will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the United States and the state in which AlGray LLC is incorporated, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. The United States and state courts with proper venue will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these terms, unless the parties agree otherwise in a written proposal.
Where a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these terms to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by law.
18. Resolution of Disputes
Before initiating any formal proceeding, both parties agree to make a good faith effort to resolve any dispute through negotiation. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally within a reasonable period, the parties may pursue mediation before instituting any litigation.
As part of any dispute, we encourage you to contact us first using the details in the contact section so that we have an opportunity to address your concern directly. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief where such relief is necessary to protect its rights.
19. General Provisions
These terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any applicable proposal, constitute the entire agreement between you and AlGray LLC regarding your use of the website and the engagement of services, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings.
Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these terms will not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. A waiver by either party of any breach or default will not constitute a waiver of any later breach or default. You may not assign these terms or any related engagement to a third party without our prior written consent.
