MPS Digital Services
Acceptance
It is not necessary for any Client to have signed an acceptance of these terms and conditions for them to apply. If a Client accepts a quote, then the Client will be deemed to have satisfied themselves as to the terms applying and have accepted these terms and conditions in full.
Please read these terms and conditions carefully. Any purchase or use of our services implies that you have read and accepted our terms and conditions.
Charges and payment
Charges for services to be provided by MPS Digital are defined in the project quotation that the Client receives via e-mail. Quotations are valid for a period of 30 days. MPS Digital reserves the right to alter or decline to provide a quotation after expiry of the 30 days.
Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all website design services require an advance payment of a minimum of thirty three (33) percent of the project quotation total before the work is supplied to the Client for review. A second charge of thirty three (33) percent is required after the development stage, with the remaining thirty four (34) percent of the project quotation total due upon completion of the work and the live site has been signed off.
Payment for services is due by cheque or bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to Maciver Project Services Ltd and bank details will be made available on invoices.
Invoices will be provided by MPS and are normally sent via email. Invoices are payable within 30 days. Accounts that remain unpaid thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice will be assessed a service charge in the amount of the higher of one and one-half percent (1.5%) or £30 per month of the total amount due.
The Client agrees to reimburse MPS Digital for any additional expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Examples could include stock photography, fonts, logo design etc. We will provide details and quotations for approval in advance.
Client Review
MPS Digital will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website during the design phase and once the overall website development is completed. At the completion of the project, such materials will be deemed to be accepted and approved unless the Client notifies MPS Digital otherwise within ten (10) days of the date the materials are made available to the Client.
Turnaround Time and Content Control
MPS Digital will install and publicly post or supply the Client's website by the date agreed with the client upon MPS Digital receiving initial payment. In return, the Client agrees to delegate a single individual as a primary contact to aid MPS Digital with progressing the commission in a satisfactory and expedient manner.
During the project, MPS Digital will require the Client to either provide website content; text, images, movies and sound files, or approve the brief for the development of content, text, images, movies and sound files as outlined in the quote and sign off the completed content without undue delay for inclusion in the website.
Failure to provide content or sign off content provided by us within a two week period after requested may delay the delivery date. Please consider this when approving the start of the project.
MPS Digital provides a content management system that allows the Client to update content as required. MPS Digital reserves the right to quote for any work in changing the content at the Client’s request.
MPS Digital cannot accept responsibility for any post-placement alterations caused by a third party occurring to the Client's pages once installed. Such alterations include, but are not limited to additions, modifications or deletions.
Web Browsers
MPS Digital makes every effort to ensure websites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors. Websites are designed to work with the most popular current browsers (e.g. Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari). The Client agrees that MPS Digital cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems.
MPS Digital cannot accept responsibility for web pages which do not display acceptably in new versions of browsers released after the website have been designed and handed over to the Client. As such, MPS Digital reserves the right to quote for any work involved in changing the website design or website code for it to work with updated browser software.
Default
Accounts unpaid thirty (30) days after the date of invoice will be considered in default. If the Client in default maintains any information or files on MPS Digital's Web hosting space, MPS Digital will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web hosting space. MPS Digital is not responsible for any loss of data incurred due to the removal of the service. Removal of such material does not relieve the Client of the obligation to pay any outstanding charges assessed to the Client's account.
Termination
Termination of services by the Client must be requested in a written notice and will be effective on receipt of such notice. E-mail or telephone requests for termination of services will not be honoured until and unless confirmed in writing. The Client will be invoiced for design work completed to the date of first notice of cancellation for payment in full within thirty (30) days.
Indemnity
All MPS Digital services may be used for lawful purposes only. You agree to indemnify and hold MPS Digital harmless from any claims resulting from your use of our service that damages you or any other party.
Copyright
The Client retains the copyright to data, files and graphic logos provided by the Client, and grants MPS Digital the rights to publish and use such material. The Client must obtain permission and rights to use any information or files that are copyrighted by a third party. The Client is further responsible for granting MPS Digital permission and rights for use of the same and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless MPS Digital from any and all claims resulting from the Client's negligence or inability to obtain proper copyright permissions. A contract for website design and/or placement shall be regarded as a guarantee by the Client to MPS Digital that all such permissions and authorities have been obtained. Evidence of permissions and authorities may be requested.
Design Credit
A link to MPS Digital will appear in either small type or by a small graphic at the bottom of the Client's website. If a graphic is used, it will be designed to fit in with the overall site design. If a client requests that the design credit be removed, a nominal fee of 10% of the total development charges will be applied. When total development charges are less than £2000, a fixed fee of £200 will be applied. The Client also agrees that the website developed for the Client may be presented in MPS Digital's portfolio.

Severability
In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired and the Agreement shall not be void for this reason alone. Such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and enforceable provision, which comes closest to the intention of the parties underlying the invalid.
Production quotes and costs

Cancellation by the client prior to 48 hours notice may result in a charge being made to cover costs already incurred. Cancellation by the client when the production has commenced, or with less than 48 hours notice, may result in up to 100% of the total charge being made.

If the client can show good reason to use the “unsuitable” information, its inclusion may be considered.
Liability
MPS Digital shall be under no liability if unable to carry out any provision of the contract for any reason beyond its control including (without limiting the foregoing) Act of God, legislation, war, fire, flood, drought, failure of power supply, lock-out, strike or other action taken by suppliers or owing to any inability to procure materials required for the performance of the contract.

Copyright and ownership
In alignment with UK law, when a client asks or commissions another person or organisation to create a copyright work, the first legal owner of copyright is the person or organisation that created the work and not the commissioner or client, unless otherwise agreed in writing. For productions commissioned, Maciver Project Services Ltd assigns joint copyright/ownership and in perpetuity usage license for all platforms and territories.

Electronic project files (for editing, motion graphics and other associated audio and visual works) remain the property of MPS Digital, and copies will be given over to client at the discretion of MPS Digital.
