1. Acceptance of These Terms

By visiting the website at https://www.linefeather.lat or by engaging the services of A Line and Feather LLC, you agree to the terms set out on this page. Please read them carefully so that our work together begins with a shared understanding. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, we ask that you not use the site and that you contact us before commissioning work, so that we can decide together whether an alternative arrangement is right for you.

These terms govern two separate matters: the use of our website and the provision of our studio services. The two are related but not identical. Reading this page does not create a binding agreement to draw anything for you, just as commissioning a drawing begins a contract under a written proposal rather than under this page alone.

We may also refer you to a signed proposal or service agreement for a particular project. Where such a document exists, it supplements these terms, and where the two disagree about a specific matter in a signed engagement, the signed engagement controls that matter.

2. The Studio and Its Work

LineFeather is the studio name we publish under, and the company behind the studio is A Line and Feather LLC, with its location at 943 N 2050 East Cir, St George - 84770-8669, United States (US). Our studio sits within the professional, scientific, and technical services sector and provides computer integrated systems design, technical illustration, brand identity, editorial art, map and wayfinding design, and custom lettering.

We describe ourselves as a drafting studio because we take pride in the patient, considered work of building a drawing layer by layer. What appears in the finished plate is the result of measurement, revision, and care. The company name and the studio name belong to the company, and nothing in these terms grants you any right to use them beyond the scope permitted for our own pages and work.

We remain a small studio, which means the person with whom you speak is likely the person who draws for you. This keeps our communication honest and our standards high, and it shapes the kind of collaboration these terms describe.

3. Eligibility to Use the Site

Our website is intended for adults who are old enough to enter into a binding agreement in their own name. If you are under the age of majority in your region, you may read our pages, but you should not send us personal information or seek to authorise work without the involvement of a parent or guardian.

When you deal with us, you warrant that the details you provide are honest and current, that you have the authority to act on behalf of any company you represent, and that your use of the site does not break any law that applies to you. Establishing our own identity and our clients properly serves both sides of the working relationship.

We may refuse service to anyone at our reasonable discretion, so long as we do not act in a way that discriminates unlawfully. If we decline a project, we will tell you promptly so you are not left waiting on a matter we will not take on.

4. Permitted Uses of the Website

You may browse our site, read its content, and use the pages for your own legitimate information. You may share links to our pages with others, save public files for personal reference, and correspond with us through the channels we provide. These modest freedoms are the whole of our permission, and we grant nothing broader.

You may not copy our content wholesale for a competing purpose, attempt to take control of the site, probe its security, send it spam, disguise your identity to gain unauthorised access, or use it to break the law. You may not frame or embed our pages in a way that misleads visitors about the source of the material, and you may not build a claim of ownership over content that belongs to the studio.

Automated readers that gather data at a scale intended to harm the site or to strip our design are not welcome. If you have a scholarly or archival need to keep a copy of a page, a reasonable single copy is fine; making the site your own library of borrowed work is not.

5. Intellectual Property

All text, images, drawings, layouts, and other material published on this website are protected by copyright and other laws, and they belong to A Line and Feather LLC or to the parties who have licensed them to us. The company name A Line and Feather LLC, the studio name LineFeather, and any logos and marks shown here are protected by trade mark and related law. Nothing on this site grants you a licence to use them.

You may quote a reasonable amount of our published text with a clear credit to our studio, as the law of fair use or fair dealing allows. Any wider reproduction, especially for commercial reuse, requires our written permission in advance. A short note to talk@linefeather.lat is the reliable way to ask.

When we mention our clients or show their work in a portfolio, the ownership of that work remains with the client. Our mention or use does not transfer any project copyright to us, and when we show a sample we do so as the designer with the client good will described in the relevant engagement.

6. Inquiries and Proposals

An inquiry or an informal conversation about your needs does not create a contract. We are glad to talk through an idea, estimate a direction, or explain our craft, and we treat those early conversations as free and without obligation on either side.

When we prepare a written proposal, that proposal states a scope, a timeline, and a fee. A proposal is an invitation for you to accept, and it becomes binding only when we both agree in writing, usually by your approval of the proposal and our confirmation. We reserve the right to revise a proposal if you change the scope materially after it is issued.

Because every drawing is bespoke, we price by scope rather than by a published tariff. We will always set out our pricing clearly before work begins so that there are no surprises at the invoice stage. If anything in a proposal is unclear, ask before you approve it.

7. Project Engagements

Once a proposal is approved, the engagement proceeds in an orderly sequence. You provide a clear brief and any source material we need; we prepare early directions or roughs for your view; we refine the chosen direction into the finished plate; and we deliver the final files together with whatever source or working material the proposal promises.

You agree to give us the information and decisions we need within the time the proposal assumes. Drawing depends on input, and a project cannot move honestly without yours. If a delay on your side lengthens work beyond the timeline we scheduled, we may adjust the schedule or, where the delay is prolonged, our fee with proper notice.

Either of us may raise a concern during the work without ending the project. We prefer to solve problems at the board rather than in a dispute, and we will always listen to a fair concern about the direction, the pace, or the finish of the work in hand.

Back to top

8. Fees, Invoices, and Payment

Fees are set out in the proposal you approve and are normally invoiced against agreed milestones or against delivery of the completed work. Small initial deposits may be requested before we commit our time to a project, and such deposits are credited toward your final invoice rather than lost in addition to it.

You should pay each invoice within the number of days stated on it, which is usually thirty days unless we agree otherwise. Payment is made through the methods we offer, which may include an invoicing service that records the transaction securely. We may pause work on an active project if an invoice remains unpaid beyond its due date, and a sustained failure to pay lets us end the engagement under the later section on termination.

Late payment, where the law permits, may carry a reasonable charge to cover our added cost of recovery, and you will be responsible for any lawful costs we incur in collecting an amount that is rightly due. If our own error inflates an invoice, we will correct it as soon as you point it out.

9. Deliverables and Ownership

When you pay for a project in full, ownership of the finished artwork described in the proposal passes to you at the point of full payment, in the customary manner for design work. This means you may use the delivered work for the purposes your proposal records, under the licence the proposal grants, and you may hold the source files we supply as part of that delivery.

We may keep the right to show completed work in our portfolio and to reuse the skills and techniques involved in your project for other clients. We will not sell or loan your confidential materials to a rival, and we will not reuse distinctive assets that belong only to you as if they were general stock.

Ownership of any typefaces, stock imagery, or third-party components licensed for your project follows the licence of that component rather than a simple transfer from us. Where a delivery depends on such a component, we will identify its licence so you know the bounds of your own use.

Back to top

10. Revisions and Approval

We work to satisfy the approval of the person who commissions the drawing, and a sensible number of refinements is part of a well-run project. The proposal will state how many rounds of changes the fee includes and what counts as a change rather than a correction of our own error.

A correction of a mistake we made, or a point we overlooked in the agreed brief, is put right without extra charge. A request for new material, a fresh direction, or additional versions beyond the agreed scope is a natural occasion for a further estimate rather than an irritation.

We ask for clear approval at the milestones the proposal names. Written approval of a stage lets us proceed with confidence, and final written approval of the delivered work signals that the brief has been met and that only the matter of invoicing remains.

Back to top

11. Third-Party Materials and Tools

Some of our work draws on tools, typefaces, imagery, and software that others own or license. Where we use such material for your project, we do so properly under the terms that govern that material, and we will pass on to you only such rights as we ourselves hold.

If your project requires a licence that must live in your name, such as a particular type foundry licence or a stock plan, we will arrange for that and include its cost in the proposal or invoice it plainly so you can see what you are paying for. We do not hand you rights we do not hold, and we undertake not to pretend otherwise.

Our website may also rely on third-party services for hosting, measurement, and communication. Those services are governed by their own terms; where your comfort about them matters, please ask us and we will tell you openly which providers we use for the parts that touch your project.

Back to top

12. Confidentiality

In the course of a project you may share plans, figures, drafts, and other material that you rightly regard as confidential. We accept that material in confidence and will use it only to draw the work you asked for. We will not reveal it to anyone outside the studio except where the work truly requires a trusted tool or collaborator, and then only as far as needed.

This duty does not apply where information is already public, where you choose to make it public, where we are required to reveal it by law, or where we develop it independently without using your confidential material. We expect the same courtesy from you toward any technique or process we share only for your benefit.

Our obligation of confidence continues after a project ends, because a finished drawing does not erase the trust built while making it. If you would like an explicit nondisclosure agreement before sharing sensitive material, we are glad to sign a sensible one.

Back to top

13. Warranties and Representations

We warrant that the work we deliver will be drawn to a professional standard and will match the brief and scope of an approved proposal, subject only to the honest limits of illustration and to source materials you provide. We will take reasonable care to ensure that the finished files open and print as agreed and that standard working files are correctly named and organised.

We cannot warrant that a visual outcome will meet a taste we cannot fully know, nor that a suggested direction will prove commercially successful, because such outcomes depend on factors outside a drawing. Those are judgements about your market rather than promises we can own.

You warrant that any material you give us for a project is yours to use, or that you hold the right to have it used in the work, and that the brief you describe does not demand that we copy someone else unlawful creative output. Should either warranty prove false, you accept the responsibility that flows from it.

Back to top

14. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, A Line and Feather LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damage, or for any loss of profit, revenue, data, or goodwill, arising from the use of our website or from an engagement under these terms. Its total liability for any single matter will not exceed the amount you actually paid the company for the relevant service.

We draw to the standard of a careful professional, but no drawing is a guarantee against every misreading. Where the law places a limit on how much a provider may limit its liability, that limit applies to us rather than any clause that would step beyond it, so that these terms remain lawful in every region where you read them.

Nothing in this section limits or excludes liability that the law does not permit us to limit or exclude, such as liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for any other matter where exclusion would be unlawful.

Back to top

15. Indemnity

You agree to protect and hold harmless A Line and Feather LLC, its owners, and its staff against claims, losses, and reasonable costs that arise from your breach of these terms, your breach of a signed proposal, or your misuse of the website, to the extent the law allows such an undertaking from you.

Where a claim against us truly flows from work we drew negligently for you, the fair workings of insurance and law should fall on us rather than being shuffled silently to you, and nothing here asks you to bear that burden. The indemnity concerns your own actions, not our mistakes.

If a third party claims that a delivery infringes its rights, we will examine the claim honestly with you. If the claim arises from a typeface or component we knowingly supplied you under licence, we will stand behind our arrangement with that supplier as the licence provides.

Back to top

16. Suspension and Termination

Either of us may end an engagement for a project with reasonable written notice, and we will settle fair payment for the useful work completed to that point and for the rights already delivered. Ending a project need not be a quarrel; often a change of circumstance simply calls for it.

We may suspend or end service more promptly where a party breaks a material term and does not fix it after notice, where payment remains unpaid, or where continuing would break the law or put either of us at risk. On ending, we will stop using the other confidential material and return or destroy it as the engagement directs.

Sections that by their nature should survive the end of a relationship, such as those on intellectual property, confidentiality, and limitation of liability, remain in force after an engagement closes.

Back to top

17. Governing Law and Disputes

These terms are read under the laws of the state where A Line and Feather LLC is established, namely Utah within the United States (US), and the applicable federal law of the United States, without regard to conflict of law rules that would pick another place.

We prefer a quiet resolution to a loud one. If a dispute arises, we will first invite you to talk it through with us directly, because most disagreements between a studio and its client are settled by clearer description rather than by a court. Where the law gives you a right to bring a claim in your own courts, that right is not taken away by choosing which law governs the paperwork.

If a dispute cannot be settled by conversation and must be decided formally, the parties will bring it in the courts that have proper jurisdiction over the parties and the matter, with each side bearing its own lawful costs unless the deciding body orders otherwise.

Back to top

18. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms of Service from time to time to reflect changes in our studio, in the law, or in the way we present our work. When the change is material, we will update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, draw attention to it on our homepage.

A change to these website terms takes effect when we publish it here. Continued use of the site after that publication means you accept the revised terms to the extent the law allows. If you have an active signed engagement, changes to these general terms do not silently rewrite that signed agreement; the signed document and this page are meant to be read together at the time the engagement is formed.

For clients, we will normally give notice of any change to the terms that will govern your active work before it applies to that work, so that you are never caught by a rule you did not see coming.

Back to top

19. Severability and Waiver

If a court decides that any part of these terms is unlawful or unenforceable, the rest of the terms continue in force, and the offending clause is read down only as far as needed to make it lawful. We would rather keep the sense of an agreement than abandon it because of a single doubtful line.

A failure by either of us to insist on a term at one moment does not mean that term is given up forever. Waivers are effective only when written and signed, and any single waiver binds only the matter it names, not every later occasion of the same kind.

These headings exist only to help you find your way around; they do not carry legal meaning of their own. Where several clauses belong together, they are read so that the whole holds its intended sense.
