Ten (10) days after the client is sent the link to the latest draft version of the film, movie, or book it is considered “Final” and the remaining balance is immediately due unless suggestions for change or correction notes are received by Heirloom Films from the client in that time frame or the client communicates with Heirloom Films to arrange a later date to provide change suggestions.
No refunds are available after services have been rendered. A partial refund may be issued services not yet rendered if a project is canceled or delayed by the client or by Heirloom Films.
Interest of 28% per annum is applied to any balance outstanding beyond 30 days.
Should the client delay or postpone the project for any reason, additional charges may apply.
