Minimum Web Design Standards Policy

The DesignCrowd Minimum Web Design Standards Policy (the "Minimum Web Standards" or “Web Standards Agreement”) outlines .designcrowd.com's requirements for your submissions (HTML pages and complete websites) through the website www.DesignCrowd.com (the “Site” or the “Service”).  Note that in addition to these Minimum Web Standards is the User Agreement, which details your rights and responsibilities when using the Service, must be agreed to and followed.

Non-Compliance

DesignCrowd reserves the right, but not the obligation, to remove, block, not display and not store any information or materials that we deem to not comply with the Minimum Web Standards. DesignCrowd may limit, suspend or terminate the Service or remove member content and submissions to keep members off the site if we think they do not comply with our Minimum Standards.  DesignCrowd may block, cancel or reverse payments (including participation payments or place payments) to designers if we deem their submissions do not comply with the Minimum Standards.

DesignCrowd will have no obligation to monitor submissions or contributions made on the Service. However, DesignCrowd and its customers and other members have the right to monitor these transmissions and postings and report these activities or take the action as detailed above where the User Agreement or any other policies are breached.

General Quality

Submissions must be of reasonable quality.  DesignCrowd reserves the right to deem any submission as being of unreasonable quality.

As a guideline, we define reasonable quality as designs that are:
  • Highly professional
  • Meeting the brief
  • Suitable for the purpose and target market

DesignCrowd reserves the right to deem the general quality of a submission to be unacceptable and thus non-compliant with these guidelines.  DesignCrowd will reject submissions designed too quickly, with unreasonable quality or where we think the aim of earning a minimum payment.
