Terms & Conditions
Plain English first: We build your website for free, you see it before you pay anything, and there's no contract. These terms set out exactly what you get on each plan, how billing works, and what happens if either of us wants to part ways.
By requesting a free preview or subscribing to a PagePitch plan, you agree to these terms.
1. Who we are
PagePitch is a website design and hosting service for UK tradespeople and local businesses, operating at pagepitch.co.uk and reachable at hello@pagepitch.co.uk.
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
2. The free preview
Before any money changes hands, we build you a complete, custom website and send you a private preview link. This is genuinely free — no payment details are required and no charge is made at this stage.
- We build the preview based on the information you provide in the request form
- We aim to deliver previews within 2 working days of receiving your request
- You can request reasonable revisions to the preview before deciding
- If you decide not to proceed, you owe us nothing — no invoice, no awkward conversation
- We reserve the right to decline or limit free preview requests at our discretion
The preview site is hosted privately by us and will be taken down if you choose not to subscribe.
3. Plans and pricing
Once you approve your preview and choose to go live, you select one of the following plans:
All prices are in GBP and are exclusive of VAT where applicable. Prices are subject to change with 30 days' written notice. If we increase your price, you may cancel without penalty within that notice period.
4. Payment and billing
Monthly plans (Presence and Professional)
Your first payment is taken when your website goes live. Subsequent payments are taken on the same date each month. There is no setup fee and no upfront cost.
Own It plan
The £595 fee covers the full design, build, and 12 months of managed hosting. It is due when your website goes live. After 12 months, you choose: continue hosting with us at £9.99/month, or we hand you all your files and you take your site elsewhere — no exit fee.
Failed payments
If a payment fails, we will notify you and give you a reasonable opportunity to update your payment details. If payment remains outstanding for more than 14 days, we reserve the right to suspend your website until the account is settled.
5. What's included in your plan
Content updates
Each plan includes a monthly allowance of content update requests. An update request is a single message to us containing one or more changes (e.g. new prices, updated photos, revised opening hours). We treat everything in one message as one request.
- Presence: 2 update requests per month
- Professional: 5 update requests per month
- Own It: governed by the Professional terms during the 12-month hosting period
We aim to apply all updates within 24 hours of receiving the request, on working days. Unused update requests do not roll over to the following month.
Hosting and SSL
Hosting, SSL certificates (the security padlock), and platform maintenance are included in all plans. We aim for 99.9% uptime but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service — maintenance windows may be needed from time to time.
Domain
- Presence plan: your site is hosted on a PagePitch address (e.g. app.pagepitch.co.uk/your-business)
- Professional and Own It plans: we register and manage a custom domain (e.g. yourbusiness.co.uk) on your behalf. The domain is registered in your name or your business's name and belongs to you
6. Your content and intellectual property
You retain full ownership of all content you supply to us — text, images, logos, and any other materials. By providing this content, you confirm that you have the right to use it and grant us a licence to use it to build and maintain your website.
The website design and code
- Presence and Professional plans: the design and underlying code remain owned by PagePitch during the subscription period. You have a licence to use them as long as your subscription is active. If you cancel, we take the site offline and the licence ends
- Own It plan: on payment of the one-time fee, ownership of the website code and design transfers to you. We will provide you with all source files on request
7. Cancellation
There is no minimum term and no cancellation fee on monthly plans. To cancel, simply email us at hello@pagepitch.co.uk. Your site will remain live until the end of your current billing month, after which it will be taken offline and your data deleted within 30 days.
We may also cancel your service if you breach these terms, with reasonable notice where possible.
8. What we don't do
To be clear about what PagePitch does and doesn't cover:
- We do not guarantee specific search engine rankings or a certain number of leads or enquiries
- We do not provide ecommerce or online payment processing (unless agreed separately in writing)
- We do not provide email hosting (e.g. your@yourbusiness.co.uk) unless agreed separately
- We do not manage or pay for third-party advertising (e.g. Google Ads)
9. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, PagePitch is not liable for:
- Loss of revenue, loss of business, or loss of profits arising from use of (or inability to use) your website
- Indirect, consequential, or special losses of any kind
- Third-party actions, including CDN outages, DNS issues, or domain registrar failures
Our total liability to you in connection with these terms shall not exceed the total fees paid to us in the three months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any matter that cannot be excluded under English law.
10. Privacy
How we collect and use your personal data is explained in our Privacy Policy. By using PagePitch, you confirm you have read and understood it.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify active customers by email at least 14 days before any material change takes effect. Continued use of the service after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not accept a change, you may cancel without penalty.
12. Governing law
These terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Both parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
