Terms of Service

Last updated: 9 November 2026

These terms apply to your use of forgeweb.gr and to any service you order from Forge: building websites, e-shops and web apps, redesigns, SEO and support. If the written quote we send you says something different, the quote applies.

2. Using this website

The content of this website (text, designs, logo, images, code) belongs to Forge and is protected by Greek copyright law (Law 2121/1993). You may not copy it without written permission. Information on the website is provided for general guidance. We work to keep it accurate, but it isn't a binding offer.

3. Prices and VAT

All prices on this website, including the cost estimator's results, are indicative and exclude 24% Greek VAT, which is added to the invoice. Only the written quote for your specific project is binding. When the client is a private individual (a consumer), the quote also shows the final price including VAT. Third-party costs, such as domains, software licences or paid plugins, are listed separately in the quote.

4. Starting a project

Our agreement starts when you accept the quote in writing (an email is enough) and pay the deposit. The timeline counts from the day we receive the deposit and the material we need to begin.

5. Payments

20% deposit when you commit, so we can reserve time and start.
80% balance on completion, before the site goes live or the files are handed over.
Payment by IRIS or bank transfer. We issue a proper invoice or receipt for every payment.
Support plan: €50 per month + VAT, covering hosting, updates and changes. It's billed monthly and you can cancel at any time by letting us know before the next month starts.

6. What we need from you

To deliver on time, we need text, photos, your logo and feedback within the time we agree. Delays in material or approvals push the timeline back by the same amount. You confirm that you hold the rights to any material you give us and that your website's content is lawful. You are responsible for that content.

7. Changes during the project

The rounds of revisions included in the price are stated in the quote. New pages, features or changes not covered by the original agreement are priced separately and only carried out once you approve them.

8. Cancellation

You can end the project at any time by email. If you do, the 20% deposit is non-refundable, because it covers the time we reserved and the work already done, and you owe nothing further. Files from a project that hasn't been paid in full stay with Forge.

If you are a consumer (a private individual), you also have the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 days of entering it, without giving a reason, under Greek Law 2251/1994. If you expressly ask us to start work within those 14 days and then withdraw, you pay only for the work already done and we refund the rest. To withdraw, send a clear statement to support@forgeweb.gr.

9. Ownership of the website

Once you have paid in full, the website, code and designs we made for you become yours and we hand over all access details. Until then they belong to Forge. Third-party elements, such as fonts, open-source libraries, plugins and stock photos, remain under their own licences. We may show the project in our portfolio unless you ask us in writing not to.

10. Domains and hosting

We register domains through Papaki in your name, as the registrant. Hosting is on Hostinger unless we agree otherwise. The terms of those providers also apply to the availability and operation of their services.

11. Warranty and support

For 30 days after delivery, we fix any bug caused by our own code free of charge. After that, support and changes are covered by the support plan or billed separately.

12. Limitation of liability

We work with care, but we can't guarantee that a website will run without any interruption or that it will reach a particular Google ranking or level of sales. We aren't responsible for faults or outages of third-party services (hosting, domains, banks, apps), for content supplied by the client, or for changes made to the site by the client or others. In any case, our liability is limited to the amount you paid for the project concerned. These limits don't apply to damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, and they don't reduce your statutory rights as a consumer.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by Greek law. If a disagreement comes up, we'll first try to resolve it together. If that isn't possible, the courts of Athens have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, you can also contact the Hellenic Consumer Ombudsman or go to the courts where you live.
