WEBSITE
TERMS &
CONDITIONS.

These Terms govern access to and use of https://ctrlcutstudio.co.za/ and enquiries initiated through the website.

The website is operated by:

Ctrl Cut Co (Pty) Ltd
Registration No. 2026/243068/07
Randburg, Gauteng, South Africa.

The website is primarily an informational, portfolio and enquiry platform through which visitors can learn about CTRL CUT CO, review selected work and contact us regarding potential projects or services.

Services cannot currently be purchased or paid for directly through the website. Project requirements, deliverables, commercial terms and payment arrangements are agreed separately through the applicable quotation, proposal, service agreement or other written agreement.

If the website introduces online bookings, purchases, payments or other transactional functionality in future, additional terms and disclosures may apply.

Submitting an enquiry, requesting information or participating in an initial discovery conversation through or in connection with our website does not, by itself, establish a binding production agreement or oblige CTRL CUT CO to undertake a project.

Where CTRL CUT CO agrees to provide services, the scope and commercial terms will be established through the applicable quotation, proposal, scope of work, service agreement, purchase order or other written arrangement accepted by the relevant parties.

A binding agreement may arise when an offer is validly accepted in accordance with its terms and applicable law, including where acceptance occurs electronically.

Project-specific agreements may address deliverables, responsibilities, timelines, fees, payment terms, revisions, approvals, intellectual property, confidentiality and change control.

Any changes to an agreed scope, delivery schedule or commercial arrangement must be addressed in accordance with the applicable project agreement.

Where a conflict exists between these Website Terms and an applicable project-specific agreement, the project-specific agreement will govern the production engagement to the extent of that conflict.

The website may contain descriptions of our services, portfolio material, showreels, case studies, concepts, images, animations, video, written content and other information.

Content is provided for general informational and promotional purposes and may be changed without notice.

Previous work shown on the website is not a promise or guarantee that a future project will achieve an identical creative, commercial or technical result.

While reasonable care is taken in preparing and maintaining website content, CTRL CUT CO does not guarantee that all information will always be complete, current, error-free or suitable for a particular purpose.

Website content is provided for general informational and promotional purposes and should not be relied upon as a substitute for project-specific advice, agreed specifications or formal contractual commitments.

Unless otherwise stated, the CTRL CUT CO name, branding, website design, original written content, graphics, layouts, imagery, animation, video and other original material displayed on the website are owned by or licensed to CTRL CUT CO and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

The website may also contain material owned by clients, collaborators, licensors and other third parties. Ownership of such material remains with the respective rights holders.

Visitors may access and view website content for lawful personal, informational or business evaluation purposes.

Except where expressly permitted by law or authorised by the relevant rights holder, website content may not be reproduced, republished, redistributed, modified, commercially exploited or incorporated into other works without appropriate permission.

Viewing portfolio material does not transfer intellectual property rights or grant permission to reuse the underlying work.

Nothing in these Website Terms determines the ownership or licensing arrangements for individual client projects. Those matters are governed by the applicable project-specific agreements.

CTRL CUT CO may display selected projects, portfolio material, client names, trademarks, logos, case studies and related creative work where we have the necessary contractual rights, permissions or other lawful authority to do so.

The publication of client-related material on our website does not transfer ownership of the client's underlying intellectual property or imply that CTRL CUT CO owns every element displayed.

Where work has been completed in collaboration with agencies, production companies, creative partners or other service providers, publication and attribution will be subject to the relevant agreements, permissions and confidentiality obligations.

Confidential, embargoed, unreleased or otherwise restricted client material will not be intentionally published without the appropriate authorisation.

Portfolio material is presented to demonstrate relevant creative work and capabilities. It should not be interpreted as a guarantee of identical outcomes for future projects.

Certain elements displayed on this website, including selected imagery, design concepts, visual studies, animations or written material, may have been created, developed, enhanced or assisted using artificial intelligence technologies.

AI-assisted content forms part of CTRL CUT CO's broader human-led creative and production processes.

AI-generated or AI-assisted content may contain synthetic, illustrative or fictional elements, including representations of people, locations, objects or events. Such content should not be interpreted as documentary evidence or an accurate representation of a completed client project unless expressly identified as such.

Where necessary to avoid a misleading impression, we will distinguish conceptual or illustrative material from actual commissioned projects and documented production work.

The use of artificial intelligence does not alter the intellectual property rights, confidentiality requirements or other obligations applicable to client-owned or third-party material.

General information provided on the website is not intended to constitute legal, financial or other regulated professional advice.

When you submit information through the website, you warrant that the information is reasonably accurate and that you are authorised to provide it.

You must not submit unlawful material, malicious code or material that infringes the privacy, confidentiality, copyright, trademark or other rights of another person.

Submitting project material to CTRL CUT CO does not transfer ownership of that material to us except where expressly agreed.

The website may refer to external platforms, client websites, social platforms or other third-party resources.

CTRL CUT CO does not control all third-party content and is not responsible for the availability, terms, security or privacy practices of third-party websites.

We aim to keep the website operational and accurate but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

We may modify, suspend or discontinue website functionality where reasonably necessary.

We take reasonable care in presenting accurate and relevant information on our website. However, website content is provided primarily for general informational, portfolio and promotional purposes and may not reflect every current service, capability or commercial arrangement.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, CTRL CUT CO will not be liable for indirect or consequential loss arising solely from reliance on general website information or temporary website unavailability.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or restricts liability for fraud, intentional misconduct or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies available under applicable South African consumer protection or other mandatory legislation.

Liability relating to commissioned production services will be governed by the applicable project-specific agreement and relevant law.

Personal information submitted through the website is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.

Any dispute will be subject to the jurisdiction and dispute-resolution mechanisms available under South African law and any applicable project agreement.
