AMD Terms and Conditions

Terms and Conditions

Please read these Terms and Conditions, these do not affect your Statutory Rights under UK Law.

By placing an order with AMD, you confirm that you are in agreement with and bound by the terms and conditions below.

Definitions:
The Client: The company or individual requesting the services of AMD.

AMD: Primary designer/site owner & employees or affiliates.

General
AMD will carry out work only where an agreement is provided either by email, telephone, mail or fax. AMD will carry out work only for clients who are 18 years of age or above. An ‘order’ is deemed to be a written or verbal contract between AMD and the client, this includes telephone and email agreements.

The website, graphics and any programming code remain the property of AMD until all outstanding accounts are paid in full.

Any scripts, applications like webshops, online editing tools, PHP scripts, or software (unless specifically agreed) written by AMD remain the copyright of AMD and may not be commercially reproduce or resold with the permission of AMD.

AMD cannot take responsibility for any copyright infringements caused by materials submitted by the client. We reserve the right to refuse any material of a copyrighted nature unless adequate proof is given of permission to use such material.

AMD cannot take responsibility for any copyright infringements caused by materials submitted by the client. We reserve the right to refuse any material of a copyrighted nature unless adequate proof is given of permission to use such material.

Any additions to briefs provided will be carried out at the discretion of AMD and where no charge is made by AMD for such additions, AMD accepts no responsibility to ensure such additions are error-free and reserve the right to charge an according to the amount for any correction to these or further additions.

IMPORTANT! Failure to Provide Required Website Content: You must ensure that we are not delayed as a result of the late delivery of the material and content required to complete your website.

Travel Time and Travel Expenses: more than 30miles Traveling time to and from customer premises is not generally included in our estimate. AMD reserve the right to make a charge for travelling time at our current hourly rate. Likewise, AMD reserve the right to charge for travel expenses based on 65p per mile. (NOTE: There will be no charges for travelling time or expenses incurred during the quotation process, i.e. before you give your approval for work to commence.) Using email, online videos and the phone should save us both time and money. Plus help keep our carbon footprint down.

The validity of Quotation: Unless otherwise agreed any quotation provided will be valid for 30 days from the date of receipt.

Search Engine Promotion: If Search Engine Optimisation has been agreed as part of the contract the client must be aware that AMD is not responsible for ongoing website promotion outside our standard resubmission to around 5 of the major search sites. Should the client require the site to be promoted on an ongoing basis a separate contract must be agreed. The order in which websites are ranked in the natural search results is controlled by the search engines. While we can optimise your site initially for this by making it search engine friendly, it is impossible to make any guarantees on ranking position and Google etc will confirm if you need proof.

Should AMD waive any of these terms on an individual basis, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining clauses or commit AMD to waive the same clause on any other occasion.
