-
Clear Intel Briefing:
You must supply precise design briefs before the crew deploys. If your directions are vague, our specialists will design based on standard blueprints. We are not liable if you receive a layout color that you didn't specify.
-
Revision Allocation:
Every contract includes **3 Major Revisions** (concept changes and layout adjustments). We do not tolerate endless tweaking without operational funding.
-
Additional Missions:
Need extra modifications? No problem. Additional revisions are treated as extra operations and incur a fee of **$15 USD each**.
-
Deliverable Vault:
You receive finalized high-quality PNG/JPG raster assets. The raw source materials (such as PSD or AI design files) remain locked in our private vault unless negotiated separately.
-
100% Upfront Funding:
Creative engines do not boot up without full deposit confirmation. No heist setup begins without clear clearance codes.
-
Non-Refundable Operations:
Once the design process is initialized, **all payments are locked in the vault and non-refundable**. Since this involves custom manual labor and server bandwidth allocations, you cannot ask Jason & Lucia to give your heist cut back once the work has begun.
-
No Bartering:
We do not accept "partnerships," "shoutouts," or "exposure" as currency. The electric bills for our servers are paid in cash, not visibility tokens. If there is no budget, there is no project.
-
Collaboration Rules:
An official partnership with AD Studio is a separate layer of collaboration, which never replaces the standard professional fees for actual work.
-
Turnaround Metric:
Typical deployment time is **3 to 7 business days**, depending on general Vice City bridge traffic and local F.I.B. heat levels.
-
One Captain Rule (One Voice):
To avoid communication crossfire, assign exactly one decision-maker from your crew to deliver feedback. If multiple crew members issue conflicting commands, the operation halts.
-
Approved Phase Lockdown:
Once a design stage is marked "Approved" by your crew, it is permanently locked. Re-opening a closed stage incurs a **$15 USD re-entry penalty** to cover resource resetting.
-
Hostility Protocol:
We maintain professional channels. Verbal harassment or toxic behavior will trigger the immediate eject button faster than a stolen sports car flying off a Vice City ramp.
-
Hostile Chargebacks (5-Star Wanted Level):
Charging back payments is treated as a hostile breach of syndicate trust. Doing so will trigger an automatic 5-star wanted level, a permanent ban from our networks, public blacklisting, and reporting to legal channels.
-
Ownership Shield:
Upon final vault clearance, you receive full usage rights for the final design. However, reselling our layouts or claiming authorship is strictly prohibited.
