By purchasing a template from Nouvo Creative, or accessing the template material, courses or resources, you acknowledge and agree to these terms and conditions.

I reserve the right to amend the Terms and Policies at any time.

Nouvo Creative templates are designed for Squarespace 7.1 websites only. I am unable to install the template on previous Squarespace versions, such as 7.0 or earlier.

Demo content

The content provided on the template is strictly for demonstration purposes only, and it is your responsibility to replace the demo content with your own branding, text, images, and other elements to the template pages.

The stock images provided are not included as part of the template purchase, and they remain the copyright of the original photographer. However, links to the stock images used in the template will be provided so that you can download and use them for yourself. It is your responsibility to check the licencing for these stock images to ensure that you are complying with the corret licencing terms, and I bear no responisibility or liability for any issues arising from you using any of the images supplied in the template.

Installation

New website - if you have the template transferred as a new website, installation is included in the cost of the template.

Existing website - if you need your template installed on an existing website, installation will cost $50 USD.

Once the template has been transferred or installed, you cannot change the installation type, and you will need to purchase another template and select the correct installation type.

I reserve the right to decline or cancel any installation at any time. In the event of an installation order being cancelled, Nouve Creative will refund the full amount of the Install service, though I cannot refund for the Squarespace Template purchased in conjunction with this order.

Email invitation

In order to install the template, you will receive an email invitation to become a contributor on the website. If you don’t have a Squarespace account already, you’ll be prompted to create one. You’ll need to accept the invitation and create an account in order for the template to be delivered to you.

If for any reason you have not received the email invitation after 24 hours of purchasing the template, please contact me by email to request a new email invitation to be sent.

If you have not accepted the email invitation and have not requested a new one within 30 days of purchase, I will consider the design delivered and the transaction will be complete.

If you do not accept the invitation within 6 months, you’ll need to re-purchase the template.

The scope of the support covers assistance related to the customisation of the layout and design elements included in the template itself, the install/build, the downloads, the provided files + any problems that might arise with these.

Any assitance required after 60 days, and outside of the scope of support, will be at an additional cost.

  • A Canva account to edit your graphics. There is a free version, but some features, such as saving PNG files, wil require a Canva Pro account. There is a free trial available for Canva Pro.

If you have any questions about a template, please contact me before you purchase.

Installing the template on an existing site

During a template install on an existing Squarespace website, I will try to ensure that your existing site and content is protected.

However, I recommend backing up your content before the new pages and site styles are installed on your existing website, in case there are any glitches or errors during the install.

I will not be held liable for any Squarespace-related errors that result in the loss of any content or other damages during the template installation.

Style Changes

During an existing site installation, stylistic changes that you required to match the new template will apply to the whole site, which will mean that although your existing content won’t be edited, the site will look different due to the new style settings.

When choosing an install on an existing site, you acknowledge that your existing content will look different after the new template is installed.
