Legal · terms

Nothing here is a binding quote until a brief is written and priced.

Velabu is an inquiry-only studio: every format on the services page is priced after a conversation, not on this website. These terms cover what that means, what a trademark screen does and does not promise, and how a dispute over the work gets resolved.

Terms of Service

Version 1.0 Effective September 7, 2026 Velabu, Austin, Texas

01

Effective date

These terms took effect on September 7, 2026, and apply to every visit to velabu.com and to every brief accepted from that date on. A brief already under way before this date continues on the terms agreed when it started.

02

Who these terms are with

These terms are between you and Velabu, trading at velabu.com, with its studio at 31 River Road, Suite 4, Austin, Texas 61698, United States. Everything below refers to that entity as "Velabu," "we," or "us."

03

What this site provides

Velabu writes company names, product line names, tagline sets, tone-of-voice guides and rename audits, described in full on the services page. Every format includes a knockout trademark screen against the federal register run by the studio's editor before a name reaches you.

Velabu does not draw logos, does not build colour or visual identity systems, and does not perform legal trademark clearance. A knockout screen tells us whether a name is obviously already taken; it is not a substitute for an attorney's clearance search, and we say so again in the warranty clause below.

04

Inquiry only, no cart

Nothing is sold, paid for, or checked out on this website. There is no cart, no cart total and no payment field anywhere on velabu.com. A figure named in an email, on a call or anywhere on this site is an estimate for planning purposes, not a binding quote, until it is confirmed in writing against a specific brief.

  1. You send an inquiry through the form on the contact page or the homepage, or you write directly to office@velabu.com.
  2. The studio replies within one business day to schedule the thirty-minute intake call named on the services page.
  3. After that call, Velabu sends a written fee and scope for the specific format requested. Work starts once you accept that written scope, not before.
05

Fees

All fees are quoted in US dollars. Each format has its own basis, stated on the services page: a sprint fee after intake, a per-line fee that scales with how many names are needed, a per-set fee for a tagline set, a flat project fee for a tone-of-voice guide, and a fee set after Velabu reviews an existing name for a rename audit. A price changes only if the scope changes — more names requested, an added round of revisions, or a rush timeline — and any change is confirmed in writing before it applies.

06

Acceptable use

You may not use this site to submit false contact details, to attempt to access another visitor's inquiry or chat conversation, to scrape or bulk-copy its text or photographs, or to send the form or the chat widget any content that is unlawful, threatening, or intended to disrupt the service. The honeypot fields on our forms are there to catch exactly this kind of automated abuse, and a submission that fills them is discarded.

07

Ownership

The text, the photographs of the studio's own working material, and the Velabu wordmark on this site belong to Velabu. A name Velabu delivers to a client under an accepted brief becomes that client's to use once the fee for that brief is paid in full; until then it remains Velabu's working material. Nothing on this site grants a licence to copy its photographs or writing for another business.

08

Disclaimers and the warranty clause

This website and the material on it are provided as is. Velabu does not warrant that a name delivered under any format will clear full legal trademark search, will be available as a domain in every extension, or will be accepted by any registrar or agency. The knockout screen included with every format checks a name against the federal trademark register once, at the time of delivery; it is a screen, not clearance, and legal clearance is your attorney's work, not ours.

"Quoted per sprint," "quoted per line," "quoted per set," "quoted as a flat project fee" and "quoted after review" describe how a fee is calculated, not a guarantee of outcome. Velabu does not guarantee that a delivered name will succeed commercially, will be preferred by every stakeholder in a business, or will remain available indefinitely after delivery, since a name can be filed or registered elsewhere at any time after we hand it over.

09

Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law of Texas allows, Velabu's total liability arising from this site or from any brief is limited to the fee paid for that specific brief. Velabu is not liable for lost profit, lost opportunity, the cost of a rebrand made necessary by a later trademark conflict, or any indirect or consequential loss.

10

Refusing or withdrawing access

Velabu may decline an inquiry, pause a brief, or refuse further access to this site or the chat widget where a visitor breaches the acceptable-use clause above, or where a brief's requested name is for a use the studio judges unlawful or fraudulent. A client may withdraw from an unstarted brief at any point before written scope is accepted, at no charge.

11

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from this site or from a brief accepted under these terms is heard in the state or federal courts sitting in Austin, Texas.

12

Changes to these terms

Velabu may update these terms as the studio's practice changes. A revised version is posted on this page with a new effective date and version number at the top of this card. A brief already accepted in writing continues under the terms in force on the day it was accepted, not a later revision.
