Content Liability
Fees, refunds and Money Back Guarantee
You agree to pay the fees, in such amount and for such billing frequency as specified during registration, in full prior to any obligation of Deer Designer to perform under this Agreement. You further agree that, upon registering for the services through the website, you authorize Deer Designer to charge your method of payment (e.g. credit card) for the fee on each anniversary of your registration date, based upon your billing frequency (e.g. monthly, quarterly, annually).
Payment of the fees shall be in such amounts and at such times as set forth by Deer Designer through information provided to you and as authorized through the sign-up and registration process. Your account and access to the services provided via the website will be suspended in the event of non-payment of applicable fees. In that event, you will receive a notification to update your payment details. The system will try to charge your card again and if it doesn’t go through, your account might be cancelled and you will lose access to all the data, requests and designs.
You represent and warrant to Deer Designer that such payment information is accurate and that you are authorized to use the payment instrument. You will promptly update your account information with any changes (e.g.: changes in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur.
You may cancel your subscription with Deer Designer at any time. When you cancel, your account will be active through the end of your paid billing term. Deer Designer may change its fees from time to time by posting the changes on the website with 5 days’ prior notice, but with no advance notice required for temporary promotions or reductions in fees. To cancel, just send an email to [email protected] with the subject “Cancel Plan” from your registered email.
To avoid rebilling, you should cancel your account at least 2 business days before your next monthly payment.
You may request a refund within the first 14 days of purchase of any new subscription plan. Beyond the 14-day window, there are no refunds for partial subscription plans under any circumstance, including unused time on a plan. From time to time, we may refuse a refund request if, in our sole discretion, we find evidence of fraud, refund abuse, or other manipulative behavior. Promotions, upgrades, and adjustments to existing plans are non-refundable. You, the client, are responsible to use Deer Designer after payment.
To be eligible for a refund you must:
- Have sent at least 2 requests with clear direction;
- Have provided actionable feedback/revisions to the requests you sent in during the design process.
Without those two things, we won’t issue any refunds as this will be classified as an abuse of the service.
If you signed up by mistake, you can request a refund within 24 hours of signing up. In this case, or if you haven’t followed the two requirements above or if you cancel before 7 days of signing up, we will issue a refund of the amount paid minus the processor’s fee (Stripe).
If your account is cancelled or moved to the Pause Plan, any referral voucher/credit will be cancelled as the credits can only be added to active accounts. Refunds only apply to new customers. Former clients that used the service in the past are not entitled to refunds as they’ve already tried the service before.
Delinquent subscriptions
In the event of a delinquent subscription, which occurs when a payment fails to be processed successfully, Deer Designer will make three attempts to charge the card associated with the account. Throughout this period, the subscription will be placed on hold, and no new design work will be initiated until payment is successfully received.
During the delinquency period, the responsibility for any elapsed time without active payment rests solely with the client. During a delinquent subscription period, the design team allocated to the client is unable to be assigned to other clients, as their expertise and resources are reserved specifically for the delinquent client. This means that while the payment issue remains unresolved, the design team remains unavailable to take on new projects or assignments from other clients.
As a result, any time lost during the delinquency, where the design team is unable to work on new designs for the delinquent client, cannot be allocated, extended to other projects or compensated. The time spent on standby, waiting for payment to be resolved, represents a dedicated allocation of resources to the delinquent client, even though active design work is not being carried out during this period.
Once payment is successfully processed, the design team will resume their services, and the subscription will be reactivated. Deer Designer will make reasonable efforts to notify the client of the delinquent status and provide instructions to update payment information.
It is the client’s responsibility to ensure that the payment information on file is accurate and up-to-date to avoid any interruptions in the design service. In case of any changes to the payment instrument or billing information, the client must promptly update their account to prevent potential disruptions to the design services provided by Deer Designer.

Licensed Content Usage
When you follow this Agreement and make full payment, we give you a temporary, non-exclusive, non-transferable, free-of-charge worldwide license to use Licensed Content in your work, for personal or professional reasons. This license is for using the Licensed Content for single use within a deliverable.
You can show, share, or copy the project with this one-time use Licensed Content in it. If you want to use it for other projects or uses, you will need a separate license. You can’t use the Licensed Content by itself. You agree not to store, sell, rent, give away, or change any Licensed Content, unless we say it’s okay.
If we get Licensed Content from third parties, such as Envato, you must adhere to their specific license terms. This includes Envato Elements’ rules at https://elements.envato.com/license-terms. These rules add to, but don’t override, this Agreement. Without our written permission, you can’t: (i) sell, rent, give away, or transfer Licensed Content outside of your project; (ii) change or make new things from Licensed Content; (iii) say you made the Licensed Content yourself; (iv) use Licensed Content in illegal or bad ways; (v) let others download or share Licensed Content by itself; and (vi) use Licensed Content featuring individuals or properties inappropriately or controversially, and you must clarify that the content is for illustrative purposes only and any individual depicted is a model.
We and our licensors still own the Licensed Content, even if you download it or use it in your work. If you don’t follow this Agreement, we reserve the right to revoke licenses. When this Agreement ends, all rights to use Licensed Content, including in all the projects, will end.
Pause and Cancellation
Sometimes you might not have the need for design work for a while. We get it! When that happens, you can pause your account and we will store everything for you until you decide to reactivate your account. To pause your account, login to the website, click on “Change subscription” in the dashboard, follow the instructions, and we’ll take care of it for you.
To avoid rebilling, you should request to pause at least 2 business days before your next monthly payment. While your account is on Pause, you have access to all your design files, the dashboard (to check the tickets) but you’re not able to send in new design requests or get revisions back. You’re only able to do that while your account is active. Your subscription will remain active and your design team available to you until the end of the current billing period after you request to pause the subscription. Any ongoing discounts to your subscription won’t return when you reactivate it.
You can pause a monthly subscription, but not an annual subscription. You can pause your account for up to 6 months (free of charge). If your account stays inactive after that time, your account may be cancelled and you will no longer have access to your designs, tickets, or messages.
To Cancel your account, use the Cancel button in the dashboard, follow the instructions and it’ll all be taken care of for you. When you cancel your account you lose access to all the data, design files and ticket history. If you need access to your files, you may pause your account instead. To avoid rebilling, you should request cancellation at least 2 business days before your next monthly payment.
Don’t abuse our services
Our services offer support for the sensible use of an average non-creative based small business. When you sign up, we match your account with one of our designers that will work on your design requests on a daily basis. The scope of the work that can be requested can be found here.
We don’t replace a full-time graphic designer (or agency) by any means. Should we decide that you are not in line with our model, core values or are abusing our services or team in any way, including using our services for illegal or adult/pornographic material, we reserve the right to terminate your account. Your right to use the Deer Designer services shall terminate upon your breach of any term of this Agreement.
Your designer works on your designs in order of submission (unless a different priority is requested). As long as there are tickets in your request queue, your designer will work on them on a daily basis. Our designers, account managers and quality analysts work on a flexible schedule all over the world and within 1-business day rounds. We aim to deliver the first draft for each request and/or revision in 1 or 2 business days from when you requested according to your purchased plan. Some tasks can take longer depending on the complexity of the request. Requests and revisions received after 11am BST, during the weekend or on a bank holiday will get picked up on the next business day.
All of our communication happens either via email or logged into the website. Video/Voice calls (e.g.: zoom, skype) are not included in our services. Deer Designer is also not suited for urgent requests and we’re not supposed to replace a full-time designer. If that’s your need, feel free to find an alternative.
Output and delivery
While we do our best to minimize mistakes, due to the nature of creative design we cannot guarantee all files delivered will be 100% error free. Upon file delivery, you agree to review and proof all files for any errors or omissions and notify our team if any changes/corrections are needed. We will do our best to rush any edits to correct the mistakes. Deer Designer is not responsible or liable for any losses or expenses incurred from errors or omissions.
While we can accept daily requests and revisions, our output volume depends on many factors, namely depending on the total request volume and complexity. We will do our best to work with you to accommodate any priority items and your timelines but our suggestion is to not use our service for time-sensitive requests. As long as you have a design request in your design queue, your designer will work on it every business day and will give you daily updates.
Sample work
By default, you agree to provide Deer Designer with a non-exclusive right and license to publish your work in our portfolio, social media or other communication efforts. If you would like to revoke this right, please notify our team in writing to [email protected].

We uphold confidentiality in all communication regarding your brand and business. We will only communicate with those who have been authorized on your account and will not share any information provided with anyone outside our organization, subject to our Privacy Policy.

User requests, comments, feedback and other submissions
If, at our request, you send certain specific submissions (for example contest entries) or without a request from us you send creative ideas, suggestions, proposals, plans, or other materials, whether online, by email, by postal mail, or otherwise (collectively, ‘comments’), you agree that we may, at any time, without restriction, edit, copy, publish, distribute, translate and otherwise use in any medium any comments that you forward to us. We are and shall be under no obligation
- to maintain any comments in confidence;
- to pay compensation for any comments; or

All our communication (including design requests, inquiries, help or other) is made via either email or a form on the website (deerdesigner.com). Our system was designed to work with everything logged in order to mitigate any problems and misunderstanding with the requests, so nothing gets lost in translation.
