The question too few agencies will put in writing: when the project ends, who owns what? Here are our default rules, asset by asset.
Who owns what
| Asset | Handoff rule |
|---|---|
| Domain | Registered in the client’s name, in a registrar account the client controls. If we buy it for you, it is transferred to you. |
| Code | Handed to the client at delivery (Git repository or full archive), per the terms of the quote. |
| Hosting | Account opened in the client’s name where the platform allows it; otherwise, a documented access transfer at delivery. |
| Content | Final approved text, images and media belong to the client. |
| CRM data | Your customer data belongs to you. Export in a standard format (CSV or equivalent) on request. |
| Analytics | Audience measurement accounts are created in the client’s name; admin access transferred at delivery. |
| Automations | Documented workflows; third-party accounts (WhatsApp Business, CRM, calendar) are opened in the client’s name where the platform allows it. |
| Design assets | Source files of approved deliverables (logo, mockups) are handed over per the scope of the quote. |
| Documentation | A handover guide is delivered at launch: access, content management, points of contact. |
The principle
The exact handoff depends on the project scope and on third-party platforms, but Kreova’s default principle is simple: the client must never be locked into a platform they do not control.
