10. Business Closure and Service Disruption

10.1 No Refunds upon Closure - In the event that CreateTheWeb Limited ceases operations or permanently closes the business, no refunds will be issued for any services already rendered or fees previously paid. This is in line with the non-refundable terms set out in Section 5 of these Terms.

10.2 Notice of Closure - If we decide to close our business or cease trading, we will take reasonable steps to provide you with a minimum of thirty (30) days’ written notice. This is to allow you sufficient time to make alternative arrangements for any ongoing services or projects.

10.3 Transfer of Services - At our discretion, and where appropriate, we may propose the transfer of active services or projects to an alternative, reputable service provider. Any such transfer would require your prior written consent. You are under no obligation to continue with the alternative provider and may terminate your engagement in accordance with Section 6 of these Terms.

10.4 Licences and Intellectual Property - Any non-exclusive licences previously granted for use of our designs, content, or deliverables shall remain valid, subject to the terms of your original agreement and provided all outstanding fees have been paid. No ownership or intellectual property rights will transfer to you unless specifically agreed in writing.

10.5 Limitation of Liability - Our liability for any loss, damage or claim directly related to the closure of our business shall not exceed the amount paid by you for the service in question. Under no circumstances shall we be held liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses, including loss of revenue, data, or business opportunity.

10.6 Third-Party Software Discontinuation - If a third-party software provider used in connection with your service or project discontinues its offering or ceases operations, CreateTheWeb shall not be liable for any resulting disruption. No refunds or compensation will be provided in such cases, and any replacement services or software may be subject to additional charges.
