Last updated: August 3, 2026

Welcome to Cornwall Web Developer (cornwallwebdeveloper.co.uk), operated by Alex St Ledger-Renfree (“I”, “me”, or “my”). This page outlines my Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and operational practices.

By using this website or engaging my services, you agree to the terms below.

1. Terms & Conditions of Business

Scope of Services

I specialize in custom WordPress web development, Shopify store builds, technical SEO optimization, and digital marketing support.

Invoicing & Payments

  • Project Deposit: Standard projects require a non-refundable deposit (typically 50%) prior to project kickoff, with the remaining balance due upon completion and prior to final site handover or launch.

  • Payment Terms: Invoices are payable within 14 days of issuance unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing.

Third-Party Services & Subcontracting

  • Outsourced Experts: For specialized requirements outside web engineering and technical SEO, such as professional copywriting, high-end visual branding/logo design, or content shoots (photography/videography)—I may connect you with trusted freelance professionals in my network.

  • Direct Contracts: Unless explicitly built into a master service agreement, agreements with introduced third-party specialists are made directly between you and the respective freelancer.

Intellectual Property

Upon receipt of final payment, ownership of bespoke website designs, code customizations, and project assets passes to you. I retain the right to showcase finished builds and non-confidential design work in my online portfolio and case studies.

2. Privacy Policy

I take your privacy seriously and am committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

  • Inform project copy creation (utilizing provided Brand Tone of Voice guidelines, keyword research, and AI-assisted content drafting tools to structure and optimize content).

Data Retention & Security

Your data is securely stored and never sold, rented, or passed to third-party marketers. It is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill project requirements or legal accounting obligations.
