The client may publish or disclose information regarding the work and shall acknowledge the support of the consultant in all such publications. Once the website is complete Dream Ventures Media will submit the client website to a one time search submission to most of the major web search engines. This submission does not include any directories or paid for inclusion search engines.
Text and content.
All text and copy for the website must be supplied by the client in (.doc) or (.txt) format via email or other official source. There will be an additional charge for typesetting and/or creating text and copy. Gathering of content/image from online is an extra cost.
Third party or client.
modification Some clients will desire to purchase editing software and independently edit or update their website pages after the completion of the website. Please note that Dream Ventures Media is not responsible for any damage created by the client or any agent of the client. Any repairs required will be assessed at an hourly rate.
Credit.
Invoices are payable upon receipt and late fees apply. Clients will be charged at the rate of 10% per month on amounts not paid within 30 days of invoice date.
Data protection.
The Company agrees to keep the confidential information of its clients confidential, including all administration areas of websites and details of referrers and those who are referred. All such data recorded by a website will be completely secure, and all information will be treated as confidential in accordance with the data protection act.
Customer coordination.
Client coordination during the project is very vital.
Deliveries, feedback, delays and rounds of changes
All feedback from the client to Dream Ventures Media must be delivered back to us within 2 business days from delivery (our default is 2 business days client feedback turnaround to keep to time frames, unless explicitly stated otherwise). For example, should Dream Ventures Media deliver the client a prototype at 10:00 am on a Monday, we will require feedback by 10:00 am on Wednesday.
Feedback delay.
It is vital to note that should feedback be delayed whatsoever, delays are not like-for-like. A day’s delay in feedback from the client does not equate to a day’s delay in Dream Ventures Media next version delivery to the client. Our production schedule is tightly scheduled to best utilise our resources, therefore – should a delay occur in feedback – Dream Ventures Media may need to wait for another free window of resource time to complete work based on feedback for the next version to be delivered back to the client. Unfortunately, we cannot rework the agency’s entire production schedule across all projects to accommodate one client’s delay, and may not be able to ‘make up’ for the delay later in the project. For a tightly scheduled project, one day’s delay may irreparably impact the ultimate deadline date. If not the fault of Dream Ventures Media, we cannot remedy or take responsibility for any missed deadline/launch due to a delay in feedback or the provision of material or information critical to the project.
Client responsibilities with regard to content and copyright.
(a) In situations where the client enters or provides images, text, animations, layouts or any other content for their website they are legally responsible for ensuring that this material does not infringe any copyright or other laws.
(b) Certain materials including images and font licenses provided by Dream Ventures Media may have been purchased under license from stock image suppliers. These images are generally only licensed for use on a website. The license may not permit them to be used in publicity material. The website owner is legally responsible for ensuring that this does not happen. If you wish to use any images from the site for other purposes please contact us for clarification.
(c) Unless explicitly stated otherwise by Dream Ventures Media in a project proposal or agreement as being an included service, the Client is always responsible for the entry/population of text and image content into the developed website or product via the CMS. Access by the Client to the CMS to begin content entry/population will be dependent entirely on the progress of development and, once granted, the pace of content entry by the client will likely determine the eventual go-live date the client arranges.
Terms of cancellation.
If any unforeseen problems occur throughout the design process or the production is terminated for any reason, you will only be billed for the total number of hours work finished.
Project delivery.
The project schedules, timelines and delivery dates expressed by Dream Ventures Media in this document, any other document or by any other means of communications are indicative estimates only. There may be occasions where product delivery or demonstration of completion of works does not correspond to these expressed schedules, timelines or dates. Project delivery may be delayed as a result of 3rd party vendors, internal delays or delays in the provision of client feedback, compatible materials or milestone sign off.
Exclusion of liability.
Except in relation to property damage (excluding loss of data), injury or death, it is agreed that either party will not be liable for any damages or loss incurred by either party including, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity and loss of profit. The parties also agree that neither party will be liable for any damages incurred indirectly by any third parties related to the parties or the parties’ businesses, where the third party may seek legal action or compensation of any kind from either party.
Termination.
Either party may terminate this agreement upon the provision of 30 days written notice to the other party. Dream Ventures Media may terminate the project immediately and without prior notice if the client does not make payments for invoices issued, or if the client obstructs Dream Ventures Media ability to work on or complete the project.
(a) If the Client terminates the project prior to its completion, all deposits made up to that date are non-refundable. The Customer will also be required to pay for any unpaid work or costs incurred by Dream Ventures in relation to the project. Upon receiving any outstanding balance Dream Ventures Media will provide works to the point of termination in disk format, conditional that the works can be provided in that format. If the works require additional costs to retrieve from or coordinate retrieval from a 3rd party, then these costs will be incurred by the client.
(b) Dream Ventures Media may immediately terminate this Agreement upon the Customer becoming Insolvent. The Client may immediately terminate this Agreement upon Dream Ventures Media becoming insolvent.
Payment – refund policy.
After work on a website or other services commences, advances are not refundable.
Payment methods.

Payment of balance.
Invoices are only issued corresponding to pre-defined payment milestones or pre agreed terms. Payment of invoices is required for works to commence on the quoted works. We reserve the right not to launch a website until full payment has been received.
Future support.
Your project will be handed over as a fully functioning, completed work. Unless it has been agreed beforehand, Dream Ventures Media is not responsible for future support. Support can be provided upon request for an agreed fee.
Access to client hosting space.
We may require ongoing access to our clients’ hosting space to allow us to support and monitor their websites. This access is via a user ID and password combination, which the client may change after the website is handed over. If the client chooses to change the password we will no longer have access to the website & further support will not be possible.
Third party impacts of conflicts.
(a) Dream Ventures Media does not accept responsibility for any failure in any third party software or other product outside of the warranty or covered service period.
(b) Dream Ventures Media manages the website hosting accounts for certain clients. For these clients there are additional terms and conditions supplied specifically for that hosting service.
(c) Dream Ventures media endeavours to estimate as accurately as possible for any third party integration work, based on all documentation (such as API guides), workflows, conversations and correspondence provided. Estimates are based on this information and our experience in prior integration work. However, Dream Ventures Media reserves the right to (at any time) require that integration work be re-scoped and re-estimated, should it become clear that the expected time effort/resources will be insufficient to complete the integration work.
Legal.
If at any point during the process of the web design a designer feels that the website is going to be used for an illegitimate purpose, then Dream Ventures Media have the right to refuse to complete the website, this is for the protection of our clients, the consumer and ourselves, as we have a responsibility to all three.
Malicious attacks.
If there is any malicious activity on the website once it has been completed, then there will be additional costs to amend any issues with the website.
Compliance with eCommerce, accessibility or other regulations
We design websites in accordance with the client’s specifications. It is the client’s responsibility to ensure that the website and its content comply with current online trading laws and regulations.
Compliance with laws and regulations.
We cannot accept responsibility for any failure to comply with laws and regulations related to accessibility, selling online or those related to a specific business or trade. We can research this on the client’s behalf upon request, but in any business where complex compliance issues may exist we recommend that the client takes legal advice from their company lawyer or other relevant 3rd party service provider.
