(2) Monthly Search Engine Advertising Budget (paid to Google directly or to Google via our payment allocation).

We work sincerely & dedicatedly to satisfy you. We unfortunately don’t offer refunds on any non-performing campaigns.

(c) Refund not applicable for any delays out of our control;

 

4) SUPPLY OF MATERIALS:

 

You must supply all materials and information required by us to complete the work in accordance with any agreed specification. Such materials may include, but are not limited to, keywords, written copy, logos and other material as needed. Where there is any delay in supplying these materials to us which leads to a delay in the completion of work, we reserve the sole right to extend any previously agreed deadlines by a reasonable amount. Where you fail to supply materials and information, and that prevents the progress of the work, we have the right to stop work and invoice you for any balance on the contract.

 

5) PROJECT DELAYS AND CLIENT LIABILITY:

 

We endeavour to set up your AdWords accounts as soon as possible, however in some cases it may take up to 7-10 days to complete set up of your new account. Any time frames or estimates that we give are contingent upon your full co-operation along with complete and final materials and information. During the period of contract, there is a certain amount of feedback required in order to progress to subsequent phases. It is required that a single point of contact be appointed from your side and be made available on a regular basis in order to expedite the feedback process. We will not be responsible if the work remains largely unfinished or is delayed, due to your own inaction, or by not approving written ad copies, keywords, etc.

 

6) APPROVAL OF WORK:

 

On completion of the initial setup you will be notified and have the opportunity to review it. You must notify us in writing of any unsatisfactory points within 7 days of such notification. Any of the work which has not been reported in writing to us as unsatisfactory within the 7-day review period will be deemed to have been approved.

 

7) REJECTED WORK:

 

If you reject any of our work within the 7-day review period and not approve subsequent work performed by us to remedy any points recorded as being unsatisfactory, and we, acting reasonably, consider that you have been unreasonable in any rejection of the work, we can elect to treat this contract as complete and take measures to recover payment for the contracted work.

 

8) CANCELLATION:

 

If you wish to suspend or cancel our services and management of your AdWords accounts at any time then please let us know by email. Upon cancelling, all amounts owing to Digital4Front will need to be paid in full; any outstanding amounts will be due within 3 business days of cancellation. There will be no prorated or any refunds on the Monthly Agency Management Fees already paid.

 

Cancellation of our agreement does not automatically stop your Google AdWords advertising from running and incurring Google AdWords “per click” fees. We will not be liable for any amounts that Google AdWords charges you are following the cancellation of your management with us. If you wish to cease advertising online at the same time that you cancel your contract with us, please notify us in writing so that we can cancel your Google AdWords online advertising for you as a courtesy. Alternatively, you may choose to directly access your own Google AdWords account to arrange cancellation.

 

9) PAYMENT:

 

1) The ongoing monthly “Agency Management Fees” for our services will be charged by us in advance on a monthly basis by automatically debiting your supplied credit card/debit card based on agreed management fees.
2) The “Search Engine Advertising Budget” will be charged by Google Inc, directly and by automatically debiting your supplied credit card/debit card based on monthly budget defined by you or payment allocation will take place should you opt to pay us your monthly budget.
