Web Design Terms and Conditions

Unless otherwise specified in project/engagement agreements, the following terms and conditions apply to all web design engagements undertaken by Brighton Consulting.

Brighton Consulting Pty Limited
Basic Terms & Conditions: Web Design Work

Browser Compatibility


Cross-browser compatibility (ensuring that web sites and applications operate well in various web browsers) is an essential aspect of good web design. However, web browsers change regularly with updated versions often introducing new features which differ significantly from those of earlier versions. Added to this is the fact that browser popularity is ever-evolving; witness the demise of Netscape and the progressive increase in the use of Firefox.

Therefore in designing and developing web sites and applications Brighton Consulting applies the following principles to our work.

Brighton Consulting WILL test and optimise our websites and applications at the time of launch for the current release versions of the most popular browsers used worldwide. As at May 2008 these are:
  • Internet Explorer version 6
  • Internet Explorer version 7
  • Mozilla Firefox version 2.0.0.14
  • Apple Safari version 3.1.1
Brighton Consulting WILL NOT guarantee that websites and applications will look/operate the same in future browser releases nor will we automatically change a website/application for all our clients to ensure its consistency with future browser releases. We WILL undertake the following:
  • for general clients we will undertake browser compatibility upgrade projects as commissioned
  • for clients engaging us through Shared Services eBusiness we will schedule standard website design changes as part of our regular work program to accommodate the requirements of browser upgrades once we have determined that take-up has reached requisite levels. Other website/application upgrades will be undertaken as commissioned.

Brighton Consulting WILL NOT change a site to conform to BETA release versions of browsers or less popular browsers unless they become one of the most popular browsers used worldwide unless specifically commissioned by a client.

Brighton Consulting WILL endeavour to always take other browsers into account when building websites and applications, however we cannot guarantee that our websites and applications will operate appropriately in browsers older than those listed above.
