Terms of Service

Last Updated: February 15, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Client," "you," or "your") and Teflon Don LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), a Texas limited liability company operating from Houston, Texas. By accessing our website, engaging our services, or executing a Client Services Agreement, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a business entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

2. Service Descriptions

Teflon Don LLC provides the following categories of digital services to local businesses:

2.1 Web Development ("Bulletproof Websites")

Custom website design and development, including responsive/mobile-first design, on-page SEO integration, SSL security, contact forms, click-to-call functionality, Google Maps integration, and performance optimization. Websites are built from scratch using clean, standards-compliant code. We do not use pre-built templates or website builders (Wix, Squarespace, etc.) unless specifically requested by the Client.

2.2 Search Engine Optimization ("SEO")

Local SEO services including keyword research and targeting, Google Business Profile setup and optimization, technical SEO audits, competitor analysis, on-page optimization, and periodic performance reporting. SEO results are influenced by numerous factors outside our control (search engine algorithm changes, competitor activity, market conditions); therefore, we do not guarantee specific rankings or traffic volumes.

2.3 AI Automation

Custom AI-powered tools and automations including chatbots, automated lead follow-up systems, scheduling automation, workflow automation, and custom integrations. AI services are scoped on a per-project basis and may involve third-party AI service providers.

2.4 Full Stack Services

Bundled delivery of web development, SEO, and AI automation as an integrated service package.

3. Service Tiers and Pricing

Services are offered at the following standard rates, subject to change. Custom projects may be quoted separately.

Tier One-Time Fee Year 1 Hosting Hosting After Year 1
Launch Pad $499 Included $15/month
Revenue Machine $999 Included $25/month
Market Leader $2,499 Included $50/month

All prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. Custom projects, add-on services, or scope changes beyond the standard tier inclusions may incur additional fees, which will be quoted and agreed upon in writing before work commences.

4. Payment Terms

4.1 One-Time Project Fees

  • A 50% deposit is required before work begins on any project
  • The remaining 50% balance is due upon project completion, prior to the final files being transferred and the site going live
  • For projects exceeding $2,000, a three-part payment schedule may be arranged: 40% deposit, 30% at midpoint milestone, and 30% upon completion

4.2 Recurring Hosting Fees

  • Year 1 hosting is included with all tiers at no additional charge
  • After Year 1, monthly hosting fees are billed on the first of each month
  • Hosting payments are due within 7 days of invoice date
  • A 15-day grace period applies before services are suspended for non-payment

4.3 Late Payments

Invoices not paid within 30 days of the due date may incur a late fee of 1.5% per month (18% annually) on the outstanding balance, or the maximum rate permitted by Texas law, whichever is less. We reserve the right to suspend services, including website hosting, for accounts more than 30 days past due.

4.4 Accepted Payment Methods

We accept payment via bank transfer (ACH), Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, or other methods agreed upon in writing. Payment processing fees, if any, are the responsibility of the Client.

5. Client Ownership of Deliverables

You own everything we build for you. Upon receipt of full payment, all rights, title, and interest in the deliverables — including source code, design files, written content (unless sourced from third parties), and any custom assets created specifically for your project — are transferred to you.

5.1 What You Own

5.3 Transfer of Files

Upon request (and provided all invoices are current), we will provide complete source files and facilitate transfer to any hosting provider or developer of your choosing. There is no lock-in. We will cooperate fully with any migration.

6. Revision Policy

6.1 Included Revisions

All standard service tiers include two (2) rounds of revisions during the design and development phase. A "revision round" is defined as a single consolidated set of written feedback or change requests submitted by the Client.

6.2 Scope of Revisions

Revisions include reasonable modifications to layout, colors, typography, content placement, imagery, and minor functional adjustments within the originally agreed scope of work. Revisions do not include:

  • Complete redesigns or fundamental changes to the project direction after the initial mockup has been approved
  • Addition of new pages, features, or functionality not included in the original scope
  • Changes resulting from new requirements introduced after the project has begun

6.3 Additional Revisions

Revision requests beyond the two included rounds will be accommodated at a rate of $75 per additional revision round, or as otherwise agreed in writing. We will notify you before any additional charges are incurred.

6.4 Client Responsiveness

To maintain project timelines, we request that revision feedback be provided within 7 business days of receiving a deliverable for review. Projects with no Client response for 30 or more consecutive days may be considered abandoned, and the balance will become due in full.

We provide managed hosting as part of our service tiers, which includes server maintenance, SSL certificate management, uptime monitoring, security updates, and technical support for hosting-related issues.

  • If hosting is cancelled, you remain the full owner of your website and all associated files

7.4 Prohibited Use

Hosted websites may not be used for any unlawful purpose, to distribute malware, to host content that infringes third-party intellectual property rights, or for any activity that violates applicable federal, state, or local law.

Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring an action in small claims court in Harris County, Texas, for disputes within the jurisdictional limits of such court.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any legal action or proceeding shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Harris County, Texas, and the parties consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

14. Termination

The Client may terminate an ongoing project or hosting arrangement at any time by providing written notice. In the event of project termination:

15. Confidentiality
