Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and purchase from Texas Footprint, operated online by Makingmoreland LLC ("Makingmoreland LLC d/b/a Texas Footprint," "we," "us," or "our"). By placing an order or using any deliverable, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not place an order.

1. Who We Are

Texas Footprint is operated by Makingmoreland LLC, a Texas limited liability company, located in Central Texas. Contact: admin@texasfootprint.com. We believe in blue-collar respect, absolute transparency, and keeping things honest.

2. What You Are Buying

Your subscription includes all of the following:

• A high-impact bilingual Digital Sign — an elegant, single-page, mobile-optimized digital placeholder showing your business name, phone, trade, and serving area, instantly toggleable between English and Spanish. No custom copywriting, custom pricing tables, or manual site-building.
• Your custom .com domain, registered in your name — we register your chosen .com automatically through our master registrar account (Namecheap), with you as the registrant. If you ever cancel, we provide what you need to move it to a registrar of your own choosing for $0 transfer fees.
• Elite Trade visual background — a premium trade graphic from our master asset catalog to immediately establish trust. No stock image selectors or manual custom design requests.
• The Tailgate QR Code file — a high-resolution custom vector QR code print file linked straight to your domain, ready to slap on trucks or door magnets.
• Google Maps Link Armor — technical IT plumbing linking your secure, SSL-certified `.com` domain directly to your Google Business Profile to boost your local rank and shield you from compliance suspensions.

We do not sell physical goods. Hosting and monitoring continue for as long as your monthly subscription is active.

3. Our Moral Contract: Nice Guys & No Domain Hostage

We operate on mutual respect. We are nice people, and we expect the same from our clients. Because of this, we make three absolute moral and legal promises to you:

• The $44 Limit: We don't lock you into annual contracts. If you think our service sucks or you simply don't need an online sign anymore, you stop paying. You are only out the $44 setup and first month. There are no exit taxes, cancel fees, or hidden billing hooks.
• No Domain Hostage: Some cheap agencies register your domain, and if you try to leave, they hold it hostage for a $500 release fee. We think that's thievery. If you cancel, your .com is yours. We will transfer it directly to your Namecheap or external registrar account for **$0**. Zero ransom.
• Central Texas Family Shop: We are a small family team of four, managed locally in Central Texas. We know what it means to pull cables in crawlspaces, work up a ladder, and sweat in 140-degree attics. When you call us, you reach the people who actually build and maintain your service — not a call center.

4. Price and Payment

The current price is $44 due at checkout — a $25 one-time setup fee plus your first month's $19 hosting fee — followed by $19 per month thereafter, billed automatically until you cancel. An annual plan is also available at $200/year, billed as a single charge. No upsell is required to receive the complete package described in Section 2. You may cancel the ongoing monthly or annual charge at any time by emailing us.

Prices are in U.S. dollars. Taxes may be added where required by law. Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full payment card number — Stripe handles that entirely under their own privacy and security policies.

If a payment is reversed, charged back, or disputed without a prior good-faith attempt to resolve the matter with us, we may suspend work, revoke file access, and pursue recovery of the amount paid for completed work.

5. Setup Timeline

We aim to have your sign live within 48 hours after (a) your payment clears and (b) you submit your basic sign details (business name, phone, city, and trade). We do not guarantee same-day or next-day setup.

30-day guarantee: If your sign is not live within 30 calendar days after receiving both your payment and your basic sign details, and the delay is our fault (not caused by your failure to respond or provide materials), your sole remedy is a full refund of the amount you paid.

We notify you by email or text to the address/number you provide at checkout once your sign is live.

6. Your Responsibilities

You agree to give us accurate information about your business. You are responsible for:

• Reviewing your business details on your sign once it goes live
• Verifying that your chosen name is suitable for your intended use (including trademark and business-name searches) — we provide name ideas and hosting only, not legal clearance
• Keeping your monthly subscription active if you want your sign to stay hosted, secure, and live
• Obtaining any business license, professional license, insurance, certification, or permit required by your trade or state
• Making sure your marketing follows the advertising rules for your industry

We do not give legal advice, trademark advice, professional advice, or compliance advice. If your trade is regulated, that is between you and your regulator.

7. Behind-the-Scenes Proprietary Infrastructure

While you fully own your domain and have a license to use your Digital Sign design, you acknowledge that our behind-the-scenes server operations, automated compilation scripts, Traefik proxy configurations, Docker container architectures, and ground crew automation engines are proprietary trade secrets of Makingmoreland LLC.

We do not deliver underlying server source code, backend scripts, server access, or database dumps to you. Our automated engine remains our exclusive property.

8. Refund Policy

Because your order involves custom digital setup, registrar fees, and hosting server allocation, all sales are final after the sign goes live.

7-day cancellation: If you contact us within 7 days of your order date and your domain has not been registered or set up, we will issue a full refund. No reason required.

When you get a full refund: If we fail to deliver your complete package within 30 calendar days after payment and details submission, and the delay is our fault, you get a full refund. No questions.

When you do not get a refund: After the sign is active, no refund is issued. If you choose not to use the domain or cancel your Maps profile, that does not entitle you to a refund. If you choose to stop paying, you are only out the $44 you paid.

If you want to dispute a charge, contact us first at admin@texasfootprint.com. Filing a chargeback without first contacting us is a breach of these Terms. We reserve the right to submit evidence to the payment processor and recover funds for completed work.

9. No Guarantees on Outcomes

We do not promise any specific business result. We do not guarantee that your domain name will rank on general search results, or that any marketing you do with our deliverables will generate leads, sales, or any other outcome.

The deliverables are provided "as is." We disclaim all implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Makingmoreland LLC's total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your order will not exceed the total amount you actually paid us in the 12 months immediately preceding the claim.

We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, loss of profits, loss of business opportunity, or reputational harm, even if we were told such damages were possible.

Nothing here excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Texas law or other applicable law.

11. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold harmless Makingmoreland LLC and its owners, employees, and agents from any claim or expense — including reasonable legal fees — arising from: (a) materials you submitted to us, (b) your business claims or marketing practices, (c) your use of the deliverables, or (d) your violation of these Terms or any law.

12. Acceptable Use

You may not use the deliverables to:

• Make false or misleading claims about your business
• Impersonate another business or person
• Violate any applicable advertising law or professional licensing rule
• Resell our deliverables as-is to other businesses as your own creative work
• Engage in fraud, cybersquatting, or deceptive trade practices

We may refuse service, cancel an order, or revoke licenses if we believe your use violates this section.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

14. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Please contact us first and try to work it out before filing a formal claim. Most issues can be resolved by email.

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it will be decided by binding arbitration rather than in court, except for claims that qualify for small claims court. Arbitration will be conducted in Central Texas, before a single arbitrator, under mutually agreed arbitration rules applicable to the dispute.

All claims must be brought individually. You may not bring a class action, collective action, or representative action against us.

If a court finds the arbitration clause unenforceable, exclusive venue for any court proceeding is the state or federal courts serving Central Texas, and both parties waive objections based on inconvenient forum.

Optional opt-out: If you are a consumer (not a business), you may opt out of the arbitration clause within 30 days of first purchase by emailing admin@texasfootprint.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt Out." Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.

15. Time to Bring Claims

Any claim arising from these Terms must be filed within one year after the claim arose, except where a longer period is required by law that cannot be waived.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms take effect when posted with a new "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the service after updated Terms are posted means you accept them.

17. Severability

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in full force. A failure to enforce any provision is not a permanent waiver of that provision.

18. Privacy

How we handle your information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.
