  • "Distance Contract": A contract concluded between LYT and a Consumer under an organised distance sales or service-provision scheme without the simultaneous physical presence of LYT and the Consumer, with the exclusive use of one or more means of distance communication up to and including the time at which the contract is concluded.

  • "Effective Date": The date on which the Client formally accepts the Proposal or SOW, or the date of commencement of Services, whichever is earlier.

  • "Third Party IP": Intellectual property rights belonging to a third party.

2. Scope of Services

2.1. The Company shall provide the Services to the Client as described in the mutually agreed Proposal. Any changes or additions to the

Services must be agreed in writing by both Parties and may result in additional Fees and/or extended timelines.

 

2.2. The Company will perform the Services with reasonable skill and care, to a standard consistent with good industry practice in the United Kingdom. For Consumers, this means the Services will be carried out with reasonable care and skill, and where a price and time have not been agreed, at a reasonable price and within a reasonable time, as required by the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

 

2.3. LYT's services broadly encompass:

  • Architectural Services: Including concept design, detailed design, planning application assistance, technical drawing, and project coordination.

  • Interior Design: Including space planning, material and finish specification, furniture selection, and styling.

  • Digital Agency Services: Including branding, logo design, website development, content creation, social media strategy, search engine optimisation (SEO), public relations (and other digital marketing activities).

  • Property Development Consultancy: Including feasibility studies, site analysis, strategic advice, and design-led development concepts. Note: This typically refers to design and advisory services, not direct property sales or construction for a Consumer, which would require separate, bespoke agreements (e.g., specific building contracts, joint venture agreements for landowners).

 

2.4. Unless explicitly stated in the Proposal, the Services do not include services beyond those described, such as structural

engineering, quantity surveying, legal advice, or the direct management of construction contractors.

 

3. Fees and Payment

3.1. The Client shall pay the Fees to the Company as set out in the Proposal. All Fees are exclusive of VAT, which shall be added at the prevailing UK rate where applicable (VAT Registration Number: 448-581-656).

 

3.2. Payment terms will be specified in the Proposal (e.g., upfront deposit, staged payments, monthly invoicing). Unless otherwise specified, invoices are payable within 30 days of their issue date.

 

3.3. If any payment is not made by the due date:

  • For B2B Clients: The Company reserves the right to charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% per annum above the Bank of England base rate, calculated from the due date until the date of actual payment, compounded daily, in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. The Company may also suspend provision of Services until full payment is received.

  • For Consumers: The Company may charge reasonable interest on overdue amounts, which will be specified in the Proposal. The Company may also suspend provision of Services until full payment is received, provided reasonable notice has been given.

 

3.4. The Client shall pay for any reasonable expenses incurred by the Company in the course of providing the Services, provided these expenses have been agreed in advance or are reasonably necessary for the completion of the Services as outlined in the Proposal.

 

4. Client Responsibilities

4.1. The Client shall provide the Company with all necessary information, Client Material, access, and cooperation required for the Company to perform the Services in a timely and efficient manner.

 

4.2. The Client is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all Client Material provided to the Company.

 

4.3. The Client shall designate a primary point of contact with authority to make decisions and provide approvals relating to the Services.

 

4.4. Any delays in the Client's performance of its obligations may result in delays to the Company's delivery of Services, for which the Company shall not be liable, and may incur additional Fees.

 

4.5. The Client warrants that it has the right to use any Client Material provided to the Company and that its use by the Company will not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights. The Client shall indemnify the Company against any claims, damages, losses, or costs arising from any such infringement. (For Consumers, this indemnity is limited to direct, foreseeable losses and does not affect your statutory rights).

 

5. Intellectual Property Rights

5.1. Company Intellectual Property: All Company Intellectual Property remains the sole property of LYT.

 

5.2. Deliverables: Upon full and final payment of all Fees due under the Agreement, the Company shall assign to the Client the intellectual property rights in the Deliverables specifically created for the Client under the Proposal, excluding any Company Intellectual Property or Third Party IP incorporated therein. This assignment is solely for the Client's internal use and the specific

purposes for which the Deliverables were created.

 

5.3. Company's Right to Use: Notwithstanding Clause 5.2, the Client grants LYT a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to use the Deliverables (including images, descriptions, and results) for its own marketing and promotional purposes, including but not limited to, showcasing on its website, in portfolios, and in proposals to prospective clients.

 

5.4. Third Party IP: Where the Services involve the use of Third Party IP (e.g., stock photography, specific software licences, font licences), the Client acknowledges that separate licences may be required, and the cost and terms of such licences are the Client's responsibility unless otherwise explicitly agreed in the Proposal.

 

5.5. No Right to Modify: The Client may not modify, adapt, or create derivative works from the Deliverables without prior written consent from the Company, unless specifically agreed within the Proposal.

 

6. Confidentiality

6.1. Both Parties agree to keep confidential all confidential information exchanged during the course of the Services, which includes, but is not limited to, business plans, financial information, client lists, project details, trade secrets, and technical specifications.

 

6.2. This obligation of confidentiality shall not apply to information that:

  • Is or becomes publicly available without breach of these Terms.

  • Was known to the receiving Party prior to disclosure by the other Party.

  • Is independently developed by the receiving Party without reliance on confidential information.

  • Is required to be disclosed by law or by a regulatory authority.

 

7. Data Protection

7.1. Both Parties shall comply with all applicable data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

 

7.2. Where LYT processes personal data on behalf of the Client (e.g., for digital marketing services for a B2B client), LYT shall act as a data processor, and the Client as the data controller. In such cases, the Parties agree to enter into a separate Data Processing Addendum (DPA) if required by law.

 

7.3. LYT will implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect any personal data processed in connection with the Services against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage. For Consumers, please refer to our Privacy Policy for full details on how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability for breach of your consumer rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

13. Force Majeure

13.1. Neither Party shall be in breach of this Agreement nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under this Agreement if such delay or failure result from events, circumstances, or causes beyond its reasonable control (e.g., acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, industrial action, significant power outages, pandemics). The affected Party shall notify the other Party promptly of the commencement and cessation of such events.

 

14. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
