2. Application of Conditions and Description of Services:

2.1 All quotations are made and all orders are accepted by the Company subject only to these Conditions, which shall prevail notwithstanding any other terms and conditions which the Customer shall bring to the Company’s notice. All quotations are based on the project being setup and designed to run on the Company’s recommended hosting, (which will be provided by the Company’s trusted hosting partners) whereby the Company shall have full access and the full ability to apply any relevant server updates and patches. Any request for any project to be installed and run on third party hosting not provided by the Company must be raised at the outset and shall be subject to the Company’s written consent. All relevant server access would need to be provided by the Customer at the outset to confirm the feasibility of the request to use third party hosting not provided by the Company; this is because any changes to hosting will incur additional costs and will require additional testing. Furthermore, the proprietary code may not be transferable or suitable for transfer to the third party hosting service provider without first putting an appropriate written agreement or a suitable valid licence in place.

2.2 Any quotation is given on the basis that no Contract shall come into existence until the Company accepts the Customer’s order in accordance with the provisions of clause 2.3. Any quotation is valid for a period of 30 days only from its date, provided that the Company has not previously withdrawn it.

2.3 The placing of an order following any quotation or other indication of price shall not be binding on the Company unless and until accepted by the Company in writing.

2.4 The Customer shall ensure that the terms of its order and any Input Material and/or any applicable specification are complete and accurate.

2.5 Any typographical, clerical or other accidental errors or omissions in any sales literature, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by the Company shall be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the Company.

2.6 The Company accepts orders only on the basis that those instructing the Company do so as principals and are therefore liable directly to the Company for all payments of account.

2.7 In certain circumstances, the Company is required by law to collect evidence of identity from its customers. If the Customer fails to supply any due diligence evidence which the Company requests, the Company will be unable to provide the Services to the Customer.

2.8 No order of the Customer may be cancelled by the Customer, except with the Company’s express agreement and on such terms as the Company may require.

2.9 No order of the Customer may be varied, altered or deferred by the Customer, except with the agreement in writing of the Company and on terms that the Customer shall indemnify the Company in full against all loss (including loss of profit), costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used), damages, charges and expenses incurred by the Company as a result of such variation, alteration or deferment.

2.10 The Company reserves the right to charge the Customer for any Output Material provided to the Customer.

2.11 The quantity and description of the Services shall be as set out in the Company’s quotation or acknowledgement of order.

2.12 All samples, drawings, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising issued by the Company and any descriptions or illustrations contained in the Company’s website, catalogues or brochures are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Services described in them. They shall not form part of the Contract and this is not a sale by sample.

2.13 The Company has no obligation to accept any variation to the Contract requested by the Customer, whether by addition, substitution or omission (or, without limitation, to the Services to be provided under the Contract) and no such request shall be deemed to be accepted in the absence of the Company’s written agreement to the variation.

2.14 If any Services are to be performed by the Company in accordance with any Input Material, instructions, specification or design submitted by the Customer, the Customer shall hold the Company harmless and shall fully indemnify the Company against any and all loss, damage, costs and expenses awarded against or incurred by the Company in connection with, or paid or agreed to be paid by, the Company, in settlement of any claim for infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights of any other person resulting from the Company’s use of any Input Material, instructions, specification or design so submitted.

2.15 The Customer shall ensure that any specification submitted by the Customer does not contravene any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement.

2.16 The Services are provided for the Customer’s sole and exclusive use and shall not be used or relied upon by any third party.

2.17 The Company reserves the right to make changes to these Conditions at any time, without prior notification.

2.18 In these Conditions, clauses 1 and 2 and clauses 4-13 inclusive shall apply to all Services supplied by the Company. Particular requirements also apply to certain Services and these are addressed in clause 3.

3. Particular Requirements Applying To Certain Services:

3.1 Where the Company is to provide website design and development services to the Customer:
Unless otherwise agreed between the Customer and the Company, the Customer agrees to provide the component parts of the Website (namely the text and images) within fourteen (14) days. No refund will be made in the event that the Customer fails to provide sufficient content to complete the design of the Website. If the Website is an e-commerce website, product entry is the Customer’s responsibility.

3.2 Proofs of all work will be submitted for the Customer’s approval and the Company shall incur no liability for any errors not corrected and communicated by the Customer in proofs so submitted. Any alterations suggested by the Customer and additional proofs necessitated thereby may result in additional charges.

3.3 All content must be supplied in a suitable digital format unless agreed otherwise beforehand. Failure to supply material in digital format may result in extra charges being made for processing content for use on the Website. Where the content which is provided is in a form where a significant amount of copywriting is required, a further charge may be made.

3.4 The Customer grants the Company permission to utilise all content, text, logos and any other customer materials or identity for the purposes of creating the Website.

3.5 A design credit with a link to the Company’s website shall appear on all pages of the Website either in text or graphic format. The link will be designed to fit the overall design of the Website.

3.6 The Company retains the right in all cases to use the Services in any manner, at any time and in any part of the world, for the purposes of advertising or otherwise promoting the Company’s work.

3.7 The Customer must provide the Company with copies of the Customer’s terms and conditions and any privacy statement that the Customer wishes to be incorporated into the design.

3.8 In the event that the Company is unable to complete a Website because of lack of text and/or pictures, then text may be added using sample text and pictures using appropriate library pictures. At this point the Website will be considered completed and invoiced accordingly.

3.9 The Company will provide the Customer with the Company’s estimated timescale for progress and completion of the Services and the Company will use its reasonable endeavours to meet those timescales (as long as the Customer performs the Customer’s obligations promptly) but, unless the Company agrees otherwise, any timescales or projected completion dates are estimates only and the Company cannot guarantee that they will be met. In any event, the Company shall have no liability to the Customer if the Company is delayed in performing or is unable to perform any of its obligations under the Contract due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

3.10 The Company will design a bespoke Website for the Customer; however, the Customer acknowledges that ‘bespoke’ in this context does not describe the features of the Website’s Content Management System (CMS), unless the Company specifically agrees in writing to provide the Customer with a bespoke Content Management System.

3.11 The acceptance procedure shall be as follows:

(a) when the Company considers the design to be completed, the Website will be uploaded to a test domain for the Customer to preview and the Customer will receive notification by telephone or email;

(b) the Customer will have seven days from the notification to carry out an appraisal of the design and inform the Company of any changes required to correct any errors;

(c) the Company will carry out the agreed amendments within fourteen days. The Customer will then have a further seven days to appraise the changes to the design and inform the Company of any errors in the changes;

(d) after this period the design is considered as accepted, full payment will become due and the Customer will be invoiced for the outstanding costs. Any further amendments are chargeable. The Website will not be launched onto the Customer’s domain until the final payment has been received;

(e) any additional amendments are then chargeable.

3.12 The Customer shall pay the charges for the website design and development services to the Company (with time for payment being of the essence) as follows:

(a) the Customer shall make payment of a non-refundable deposit to the Company prior to commencement of performance of the Services. The deposit payable to the Company shall be 50 % of the charges, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company in advance; and

(b) the final 50 % of the charges shall be payable upon acceptance pursuant to clause 3.11 above.

3.13 The Company will aim to ensure that the Website will function correctly on the server on which it is initially installed. The Company cannot guarantee correct functionality on all different server options due to the large number of possible outcomes. The Company recommends using the latest version of any web browser. The Website will be designed and developed to work with the current versions (at the time of development) of web browsers including Internet Explorer / Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome. Should an update to any browser impair any functionality of the Website, the Company will investigate the matter, but additional costs may be incurred in undertaking any compatibility testing and/or applying any relevant updates to the Website.

3.14 All work is based upon the Customer’s responses to the questionnaire provided to the Customer before any work commences; the Customer’s responses essentially comprise the ‘brief’ to the Company and if the Customer subsequently causes this brief to change substantially, the Company reserves the right to impose additional charges. Where the Company is to provide graphic design and branding services to the Customer:

3.15 The parties shall agree a detailed project specification with respect to any graphic design and branding services to be undertaken by the Company. Any amendments proposed to the project specification must be made in writing and delivered to the other party. If such proposed amendments incur additional expense the Company is entitled to seek further payment to cover such expense. The Customer agrees that the Company holds no responsibility for any amendments made by any third party, before or after the final proof is signed off by the Customer.

3.16 Any indication given by the Company of a project’s duration is to be considered by the Customer to be an estimate. The Company cannot be held responsible for any project over-runs, whatever the cause.

3.17 The Company will require payment on the completion of development milestones where the project involves considerable development time to implement. The Company reserves the right to define such development milestones and the amount of payment to be paid for each.

3.18 The Company will deliver the completed project to the Customer by way of a method selected by the Company. If the Customer requires the completed project to be loaded onto a fileserver using File Transfer Protocol (FTP) the Customer is responsible for ensuring that the intended fileserver or disk space on the fileserver is properly configured.

3.19 On completion of the project, the Company will require the final proof to be signed off by the Customer. Sign off by the Customer will release the Company from undertaking further work related to the project.

3.20 The Customer undertakes to deliver all the content and materials required for the project and in the formats requested to the Company before commencement of the project. Where this is not possible the Customer will deliver such outstanding content and materials to the Company within 7 days of the start of the project. The Customer will notify the Company in writing (as soon as possible) of any delays in delivering content and materials required for the project and provide the Company with a revised timetable for supplying such content and materials. The Company will not be responsible for any delays, missed milestones (where specified in the project) or additional expenses incurred due to the late delivery or non-delivery of content and materials by the Customer where required by the Company for the project.

3.21 The Company will not be held responsible for any image quality which the Customer later deems to be unacceptable. The Company shall not be held responsible for the quality of any images which the Customer wishes to be scanned from printed materials. Additional expenses may be incurred for any necessary action, including, but not limited to, photography and art direction, photography searches, media conversion, digital image processing or data entry services.

3.22 The Company will not include in its designs, any text, images or other data which it deems to be immoral, offensive, obscene or illegal. All advertising material must conform to all standards laid down by all relevant advertising standards authorities. The Company also reserves the right to refuse to include submitted material without giving a reason. If the Company includes images and/or data in good faith, and subsequently discovers them to be in contravention of its inclusion policy or any law or regulation, the Customer is obliged to allow the Company to remove the offending material without hindrance, or penalty. The Company shall be held in no way responsible for the inclusion of any such material.

3.23 Unless otherwise agreed at briefing stage, all artwork produced remains the property of the Company. This excludes photography supplied or purchased and/or any branding images supplied or not produced by the Company. Any and all Intellectual Property Rights are retained by the Company on all design work, design concepts/ideas including words, pictures, ideas, visuals and illustrations unless specifically released in writing. Intellectual Property Rights in the artwork are licensed for use to the Customer on the basis that the artwork may not be modified, re-used or re-distributed in any way or form without the express written consent of the Company. If a choice of design concepts is presented, only one concept is deemed to be given by the Company as fulfilling the Contract. All other design concepts remain the property of the Company, unless agreed in writing that this arrangement has been changed. By supplying text, images and other data to the Company for inclusion in the Customer’s artwork or other medium, the Customer declares that it holds the appropriate Intellectual Property Rights permissions. The ownership of such materials will remain with the Customer, or rightful Intellectual Property Rights owner. The Customer is also responsible for arranging, prior to publication, any necessary legal clearance of materials. Should the Company or the Customer supply an image, text, data, audio clip or any other file for use in a website, multimedia presentation, print item, exhibition, advertisement or any other medium believing it to be copyright and royalty free, which subsequently emerges to have such copyright or royalty usage limitations, the Customer will agree to allow the Company to remove and/ or replace the offending material without hindrance, or penalty. The Company is to be held in no way responsible for any such material being included. The Customer agrees to fully indemnify and hold the Company free from harm in any and all claims resulting from the Customer not having obtained all the required Intellectual Property Rights permissions.

3.24 The acceptance procedure shall be as follows:
(a) when the Company considers the work to be completed, the Customer will receive notification by telephone or email;
(b) the Customer will have seven days from the notification to carry out an appraisal of the work and inform the Company of any changes required to correct any errors;
(c) the Company will carry out the agreed amendments within fourteen days. The Customer will then have a further seven days to appraise the changes to the work and inform the Company of any errors in the changes;
(d) after this period the work is considered as accepted, full payment will become due and the
Customer will be invoiced for the outstanding costs;
(e) any additional amendments are then chargeable.

3.25 The Customer shall pay the charges for the graphic design and branding services to the Company (with time for payment being of the essence) as follows:
(a) the Customer shall make payment of a non-refundable deposit to the Company prior to commencement of performance of the Services. The deposit payable to the Company shall be 50 % of (b) the charges, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company in advance; and
the final 50 % of the charges shall be payable upon acceptance pursuant to clause 3.24 above.

3.26 On the expiration or termination of the Contract, any completed parts of the project already delivered to the Customer or test examples of the project not already paid for by the Customer shall be returned to the Company. Furthermore, the Customer shall not retain any copies of the returned project, parts thereof or test examples of the project.

3.27 All work is based upon the Customer’s responses to the questionnaire provided to the Customer before any work commences; the Customer’s responses essentially comprise the ‘brief’ to the Company and if the Customer subsequently causes this brief to change substantially, the Company reserves the right to impose additional charges.

3.28 Where the Company is to provide search engine optimisation services to the Customer:
The Company will promote the Website in accordance with the package of Services purchased by the Customer.

3.29 The search engine targeted will be Google UK unless otherwise stated.

3.30 The Company will, in its sole discretion, choose suitable sets of words to search for in the search engine and the position in the results obtained using these words will be used for assessing search engine listings. A listing is where the search engine is queried with the words chosen by the Company and the Website address or a link to that address appears in the results returned. The words chosen by the Company will be a test phrase. Although the Website address, or links to that address, will be listed when searching for different words, reports will contain only one test phrase.

3.31 The Company will optimise pages on the Website for the search engine, in accordance with the relevant Service package description (which may include adding, deleting and/or altering text, images, pages, meta-tags, titles, mark-ups, style sheets, scripts, internal and external links and Website structure).

3.32 The Customer must provide the Company with log-in information (FTP username and password) to allow the Company to gain access to the Website. The Company will maintain confidentiality of log-in information. The Customer must inform their webmaster or anyone else who has access to the Website that the Company will be performing search engine optimisation services on the Website.

3.33 The Customer understands that the search engine is an independent company which selects and rank sites using its own criteria and therefore to obtain a high ranking the Customer must follow the Company’s recommendations for optimising the Website for search engine listing. If the Customer fails to follow the Company’s recommendations then the results achieved by the Company will have considerably less importance than would be achieved otherwise.

3.34 The Customer shall assist the Company in ensuring that the Company has the unrestricted ability to optimise the structure and content of the Customer’s web pages. Such changes generally have a minimal visual impact. The Company will work directly with the Customer in order to maintain the original look and feel of the Website.

3.35 Where any changes to the Website made by the Company or on the recommendation of the Company are altered, reversed or deleted, then the Customer must notify the Company immediately. The Company may apply an additional charge in respect of restoration and remedial work.

3.36 The Customer will provide to the Company:
(a) the ability to access and make changes to the Website (or, where the Company agrees, the Customer will promptly make any changes to the Website requested by the Company);
(b) assistance in determining appropriate keywords and key phrases which should be targeted using the Services;
(c) direct access to any existing analytical data concerning the Website, such as data concerning referral sources, visitor activity, Website usage, conversion rates, and similar data.

3.37 The Customer grants the Company a non-exclusive licence to use the Website to the extent required for the Company to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under the Contract.

3.38 Where the Company modifies the Website in the process of providing the Services, the Company hereby grants to the Customer a non-exclusive royalty-free licence to use such modifications in connection with the Website.

3.39 The Customer acknowledges that:
(a) search engine algorithms will change from time-to-time, which may affect the Website’s rankings in the search engine results pages, and the Company has no control over such changes;
(b) it can take many months for the Services to have any significant effects upon the ranking of a Website in the search engine results pages;
(c) search engine optimisation site promotion is an ongoing task and, should the Customer terminate the Contract and/or stop promoting the Website, that would be likely to have a negative impact upon the effects of the Services;
(d) the Company will not be responsible for any alterations to the Website made by the Customer or any third party that reverse or effect changes made to the Website by the Company as part of the Services;
(e) the promotion of the Website may lead to higher traffic levels and bandwidth requirements for the Website, and the Customer will be responsible for arranging and paying for such requirements;
(f) notwithstanding the Services, the Website’s search engine results page rankings and traffic levels may decrease as well as increase;
(g) it is not possible to give any guarantees for any specific result on the search engine, nor can the Company quantify the level of increased traffic or sales or give any guaranteed positioning as a result of the Services; and
(h) the Company does not own or control any directories to which the Website may be submitted, and no refunds will be given in the event of any refusal to include the Website in any directory database.

3.40 The search engine optimisation services shall be provided for such minimum period and may only be terminated upon such notice period as may be stipulated by the Company, subject to earlier termination under clause 12.

Where the Company is to provide pay per click services to the Customer:
3.41 The Customer will bid for the ranking or a listing which appears in the search results generated by the Company in response to a search term closely matching the subject of the search listing. The amount of the Customer’s bid determines the ranking of their listing in a search results list.

3.42 The Company reserves the right to refuse, reject, cancel, remove, edit or vary any search terms, descriptions, listings and bids at any time for any reason whatsoever.

3.43 The Customer must only submit search terms, titles and descriptions to the Company that are relevant to the Website. If any information provided on the Website changes, the Customer must update their search terms and descriptions to be both current and accurate. All search terms and descriptions submitted are subject to relevancy review by the Company’s staff and are subject to removal or rejection. No refunds will be issued for charges incurred to any account as a result of submitting irrelevant words to the Company.

3.44 The Customer agrees to pay Google based on the cost of click-throughs by users on a search listing, and also agrees to pay monthly management fees to the Company.

3.45 The number of click-throughs is measured by online reporting systems utilised by the Company and the Customer acknowledges that data generated from this software shall be the definitive and only measure of the number of click-throughs.

3.46 The Customer will be charged on a monthly basis for each click delivered. The charge per click will vary depending upon the search terms used.

3.47 Monthly reports will be sent to the Customer by email. If the Customer terminates the Contract, the Company will delete or pause any created campaign.

3.48 Pay per click services are provided with no warranty with respect to the number of click-throughs per search listing which will be delivered and the Company will not be liable for any delay in changing any bid by the Customer.

3.49 The Company does not guarantee that the Company’s search listings will be available or displayed. The format and style of the Customer’s listing may vary and the Company makes no representations as to the format and style of search listings.

3.50 The pay per click services shall be provided for such minimum period and may only be terminated upon such notice period as may be stipulated by the Company, subject to earlier termination under clause 12.
Where the Company is to provide social media management services to the Customer:

3.51 The Company will complete an initial set up of the campaign based around the social media accounts in the Customer’s chosen package. Where required, designs which complement the Website style and company branding will be produced for the Customer’s approval.

3.52 Once the initial set up has been approved by the Customer, social media accounts will be set up for each of the Customer’s social media pages and login details will be sent to the Customer once the pages have been built and completed.

3.53 The Company will ensure that the Customer’s content is optimised and syndicated to blog search engines. The Customer may supply blog content to the Company in a word document; the Company will optimise and upload the blog content, and additionally distribute the blog to social media and social bookmarking properties and portals. The Customer should also supply the Company with the latest news, new products, promotions and anything else that the Customer considers should be published. If the Customer is unable to provide the content on a timely regular basis, the Company can offer a paid copywriting service.

3.54 Google Analytics may need to be added to the Website if not already set up and social media tracking will be added to the account to enable full tracking from the social media distribution. This is separately chargeable unless otherwise agreed.

3.55 The Customer must provide the Company with full FTP access to the Website. Removal of or restriction of access may relieve the Company of its obligations under the Contract; or, in the event that the Customer cannot or will not provide the Company with Full FTP access, the Company will provide the Customer with instructions on how to populate the Customer’s conversion tracking on the Website.

3.56 The Company will set up social media account profiles as agreed at the start of the project.

3.57 The Company will integrate the accounts into the Website, where necessary.

3.58 Initially, the Company’s main aim shall be to build and integrate the social media accounts into the Website.

3.59 Subsequently, the Company will optimise and distribute the Customer’s content to the relevant social media accounts depending upon the content the Customer sends to the Company.

3.60 The Company will supply the Customer with a monthly activity report, which will include any recommendations the Company believes will benefit the campaign and generation of traffic to the Website.

3.61 If the Customer wishes the Company to market new products and services, setting up this element of the campaign may attract an additional set-up fee.

3.62 From time to time, the Company may recommend changes to the Website to improve the conversion rate, the bounce rate or the effectiveness of the campaign; the Company will always quote the Customer for any additional work and will only proceed with the Customer’s approval.

3.63 The social media management services shall be provided for such minimum period and may only be terminated upon such notice period as may be stipulated by the Company, subject to earlier termination under clause 12.

Where the Company is to provide website hosting services to the Customer:
3.64 The Company will make available to the Customer hosting capacity on a shared or a dedicated server which meets the Customer’s requirements in all material respects.

3.65 Use of hosting resources by the Customer is subject to such use being reasonable; any excessive use (as determined by the Company) will be deemed to be in breach of these Conditions.

3.66 The Company may determine that a Customer is using server resources to such an extent that the Customer risks jeopardizing server performance and resources for other customers. In any such instance, the Company reserves the right to suspend the Website immediately, or continue to host the
Website but require the Customer to pay an additional fee.

3.67 The Company shall use all reasonable endeavours to respond to the Customer’s notification of interruptions or other problems and to rectify any problems with reasonable diligence.

3.68 The Company will not guarantee or be liable for any breaks in the continuity of the electricity supply or of the telecoms link to the server that is provided by a third party.

3.69 If service is suspended or interrupted the Company shall use all reasonable endeavours to restore service with minimum delay, but the Company will not be liable for any lost, corrupted or destroyed data as a result of any suspension or interruption.

3.70 The Company accepts no responsibility for server downtime or interruptions to service caused by circumstances beyond the Company’s control.

3.71 The Customer undertakes that the Website shall not be used directly or indirectly for any unlawful purpose. Unlawful purposes are deemed to include but are not limited to:

(a) civil and criminal offences of copyright and trademark infringement;

(b) transmission or display or posting of indecent, obscene or pornographic material;

(c) commission of any criminal offence (including deliberate transmission of computer viruses) under the Computer Misuse Act 1990 or similar legislation in any country;

(d) any transmission or display or posting of any material which is defamatory, offensive, or is of an abusive or menacing character;

(e) use of the Website in any manner which is a violation or infringement of the rights of any individual, firm or company within the United Kingdom and elsewhere which, for the avoidance of doubt shall include but not be limited to the use of any materials, photographs and/or images without obtaining the prior consent of any relevant third party;

(f) the use of the Website for purposes generally deemed to be unacceptable, including spamming, hacking, phreaking, password cracking, pirated software, ROMS, emulators, or IP spoofing or providing “links” or “how to” information to such material.

3.72 The Customer will indemnify the Company against all and any losses and costs that the Company may incur as a result of any breach of clause 3.71 above.

3.73 The Customer will ensure that that the Website complies with the laws, regulations and requirements of any country from which it can be accessed.

3.74 If the Company has reasonable grounds for believing that there has been or that there may be a breach of these Conditions, the Company reserves the right to monitor any and all communications passing through the server.

3.75 If the Website is used for any unlawful use the Company may suspend or terminate service immediately and at the same time as suspension or termination occurs, the Company shall notify the Customer. Where suspension or termination occurs, the Company reserves the right to delete all of the Customer’s files (including web pages) without prior notice.

3.76 The Company will advise the Customer on selecting domain names and can act as the Customer’s agent in registering these at the Company’s stated rates, but cannot guarantee a certain name will be available. The Customer will be bound by the standard terms of the naming authority. The Company gives no warranty that any domain name will not infringe the Intellectual Property Rights of any third party. Renewals are the sole responsibility of the Customer and accordingly the Company accepts no responsibility if a domain fails to be re-registered. The Company reserves the right to levy a charge for any administrative work associated with subsequent hosting or domain name transfers into the Company’s facilities. Where the Company acts as the Customer’s registration agent, domain names will be registered by the Company and also registered to the Company’s current address. Although the domain names are registered to the Company, the Customer is the legal owner of the domain and if the Customer requests to have details changed or the domain transferred elsewhere, the Company will do this within a reasonable time. All costs involved in detail changes and domain transfers shall be met by the Customer.

3.77 If requested by the Customer, the Company will provide an email account on the domain within the quoted costs (or as an alternative, forwarding to an existing email account elsewhere can be arranged).

3.78 The Company accepts no responsibility for email server downtime or interruptions to service. Email accounts must not be used for “spam” emailing operations.

3.79 The Company is not responsible for establishing or troubleshooting the Customer’s Internet broadband facility, which provides the Customer’s Internet connection and outgoing mail server. This is the responsibility of the Customer’s own individual ISP which normally provides appropriate telephone support.

3.80 The Company reserves the right to feature the Website in future promotions without seeking prior consent.

3.81 The Customer grants the Company a non-exclusive licence to use the Website to the extent required for the Company to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under the Contract.

3.82 The Company may discontinue the website hosting services without liability to the Customer if the Company’s authority to provide the website hosting services should cease or be suspended.
