By accessing or using these platforms, the Client agrees to adhere to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

1. Intellectual Property Rights
The Website, owned by AXYS Creative, encompasses a wide array of
materials, including but not limited to source code, databases,
software, designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics
(collectively referred to as the "Content"), as well as trademarks,
service marks, and logos (the "Marks"). These elements are the
exclusive property of AXYS Creative, protected under U.S. copyright,
trademark laws, relevant foreign jurisdictions, and international
conventions. The Content and Marks are provided "as-is" for your
informational and personal use.

within the CMS is considered your property. However, any templates,
themes, or proprietary code provided by AXYS Creative as part of the
CMS service remain the exclusive property of AXYS Creative. Except
as explicitly stated in this Agreement, no part of the Website, CMS,
or its Content may be duplicated, replicated, compiled, published,
uploaded, displayed, translated, transmitted, disseminated, sold,
licensed, or utilized for any commercial purpose without the
express, prior written consent of AXYS Creative. All rights not
expressly granted are reserved by AXYS Creative concerning the
Website, CMS, its Content, and the Marks.
2. Content Ownership
Despite AXYS Creative's ownership of Submissions as outlined in Paragraph 6 ("Client Feedback"), all original design and development source files crafted for the Client ("Projects") are the exclusive property of the Client. The Client holds full copyright ownership of all Projects. In any circumstance where AXYS Creative might inadvertently become the owner or part-owner of a Project due to legal reasons, AXYS Creative will unconditionally and permanently transfer all its rights in the Project to the Client.

3. Fonts and Typeface
Should any Project include fonts not owned by AXYS Creative that necessitate a commercial license for the Client's legal reproduction, distribution, or public display ("Third-Party Fonts"), AXYS Creative will duly notify the Client in writing. This notification will confirm the inclusion of Third-Party Fonts in the Project and advise the Client of the need to acquire the appropriate licenses from the respective rights holders. The notice will provide sufficient details to enable the Client to identify the required licenses and contact information for purchasing them. Once AXYS Creative has informed the Client about the use of Third-Party Fonts as outlined above, it is then the Client's responsibility to procure these licenses. The Client will bear all responsibility for any legal implications or consequences stemming from not obtaining the necessary licenses for any Third-Party Fonts used in the Project.
