Escort Web Site Design -Terms & Conditions for DESIGN FOR NEW WEB SITE
1. Authorization.
The named client is engaging Escorts Web
Design, as an independent contractor for the specific web
design project of developing and/or improving a web site,
hereinafter referred to as "web design project" to be installed
on the client's account on an Internet Service Provider
(ISP) / Web Presence Provider (WPP) computer, hereinafter
refer to as "Hosting Service". The client hereby authorizes
Escorts Web Design Service to access this account, and authorizes
the Hosting Service (if hosting elsewhere) to provide Escorts Web Design Service
with "full access" to the client's account, and any other
programs needed for this web design project that are included
as part of the client's service agreement/level. The client
also authorizes Escorts Web Design Service to submit the
completed web design project to major Web Search Engines.
2. Development.
The following is included in the quoted
web design project rate:
Web Design Package Features
Web Design Additions or Options
Designing a web site to fully work in multiple browsers
(and browser versions) can require considerable, extra effort.
It could also involve creating multiple versions of code/pages.
Escorts Web Design Service guarantee that the web site we
design for you will work in:
Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 5
and up
Current Firefox
While Escorts Web Design Service will make
every effort, always, to design a fully functional web site,
our guarantee does not cover every browser or
any requested special effect that we have advised you against.
We do not recommend full flash sites as they perform poorly in search engines, are not functional on all computers, and are much more time consuming to develop. Sites developed will not be in flash unless specifically requested and agreed upon in advance.
3. Assignment of web design project.
Escorts Web Design Service reserves the
right to assign subcontractors to this web design project
to insure that the terms of this agreement are met as well
as on-time completion.
4. Copyright and Trademarks.
The client unconditionally guarantees that
any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks,
or other artwork furnished to Escorts Web Design for inclusion
in the web design project are owned by the client, or that
the client has permission from the rightful owner to use
each of these elements, and will hold harmless, protect
and defend Escorts Web Design Service and its subcontractors
from any claim or suit arising from the use of such elements
furnished by the client. Any models used must be of at least 18 years of age at the time the photos were taken.
5. Web Site Maintenance.
This agreement allows for minor web site
maintenance to pages over a 1-month period, up to an average
of one half hour per regular web site, including updating
lines and making minor changes to a sentence or paragraph.
It does not include updating replacing nearly all the text
from a page with new text, major page reconstruction, new
pages, guest books, discussion webs, navigation structure
changes, attempted updates by client repairs or web design
projects delivered to the client via ftp. The period
of 1 months begins on the date the clients web design site
has been published to client's hosting service or 30 days
from the date this agreement was signed, which ever comes
first. Any text changes must be provided by email.
6. Completion Date.
Escorts Web Design Service and the client
must work together to complete the web design project
in a timely manner. We agree to work expeditiously to
complete the web design project no later than 30 days
after the client has submitted all necessary materials (most projects can be completed in less than 2 weeks. Basic templates often take less than 24 hours).
However, each page must receive final approval in writing from the client before we will proceed with work on the following pages. If the client does not supply Escorts Web Design Service
with complete text and graphic content for this web design
project within 45 days of the date this agreement was
signed, the entire amount of the agreement becomes due
and payable. If the client still has not submitted all
the required contents within 60 days after signing this
agreement, an additional continuation fee of 15% of the
total agreement price will be assessed for each month
until the web design project is published or the client
cancels the web design project in writing. If the client
ignores request for final design payment or final approval of completed pages within 60 days
from inception without explanation, the site and domain will be considered
"abandoned" and may be resold without refund.
7. Project Delivery.
If hosting occurs with a company other
than Escorts Web Design, the web site design project will
be published to the client's hosting service upon receipt
of the full payment or delivered via a zipped file online for download upon receipt
of full payment. If hosting occurs with a company other than Escorts
Web Design, the client agrees to select a hosting service
which allows Escorts Web Design Service full access to the
client's account via FTP. The client will be solely responsible
for all hosting service charges. If hosting is to occur
with a company other than Escorts Web Design, the client
must inform Escorts Web Design prior to the onset of project
design. Should the client choose a hosting service that
does not provide features such as formmail script, php,
cgi, MySQL or other necessary features to ensure that the
web site functions to desired specifications, Escorts Web
Design will not be held responsible for any hosting service
and feature limitations if not hosting with Escorts Web
Design and extra fees may be applicable in order to remedy
the limitations.
Publishing:
Escorts Web Design Service will use FTP
to publish to the site or provide a link to download a zipped copy over the internet. We do not mail disks due to varying laws regarding importation of adult material in various countries.
8. Electronic Commerce Laws.
The client agrees that the client is solely
responsible for complying with such laws, taxes and tariffs,
and will hold harmless, protect, and defend Escorts Web
Design Service and its subcontractors from any claim, suit,
penalty, tax or tariff arising from the client's exercise
of Internet electronic commerce.
9. Web Design Project Copyright
and Domain.
Project does not include the intellectual property in the form of .psd, .swi or .fla or any other working files used in the creation of the site.
Escorts Web Design Service and its subcontractors
retain the right to display graphics and other web design
elements as examples of their work in their respective portfolios.
All web design projects will contain a copyright/legal link to Escorts Web Design web site on each page.
For efficiency and client personal privacy
reasons, if we are registering a domain, Escorts Web Design will register the domain in
the account of Escorts Web Design and in its name
unless otherwise requested by the client. The client may
request transfer of domain into client's account at any
time at no extra cost. The client will then be fully responsible for all domain
management including personal privacy, renewal, DNS entries, forwarding, masking,
information updates, etc. Annual domain renewal, while under our care, is at a rate of $25 unless otherwise specified.
10. Hosting.
Hosting cost is dependent on site size and bandwidth consumption. If you are hosting with us, please inquire about renewal rates which are subject to change from the time of this publication. Should the client decide to change hosting providers, we will not be responsible for transfer of any data or databases. The client must hire his/her own programmer to transfer any data. By having your site on our server, you are agreeing to our hosting terms and conditions. Hosting terms are found here.
11. Payments.
Payments must be made promptly based on
the schedule below. A 50% deposit is required to begin work, 100% on some templates. This amount is non-refundable once work has begun. Delinquent bills will be assessed a
$15 charge if payment is not received within 10 days of
the due date. If an amount remains delinquent 30 days after
its due date, an additional 5% penalty will be added for
each month of delinquency. Escorts Web Design Service reserves
the right to remove any web design project from viewing on the Internet, use the site to recoup losses due client non-payment, forward the domain,
or withhold domain and site transfer until final payment is made on any outstanding balance for any service. In case collection
proves necessary, the client agrees to pay all fees incurred
by that process. Adding of Meta Tags (Description and Keywords)
the submission of the web design project to Web Search engines,
updating and banner exchanges only occur after the full
final payment is made and if included in package purchased. All payments will be made in US currency
unless otherwise agreed upon.
