These Conditions shall, together with the Proposal issued to You by Us describing the Services, constitute the whole agreement between You and Mywebts.com (Us) OPEN DIROLINE BOOST S.R.L relating to the design and development of the Site.
2. The Services
2.1. We will:
– design, develop and deliver the Site in accordance with the Proposal.
– and, if We have agreed to provide You with Hosting Services, host the Site from a computer server administered by Us. The provision of the Hosting Services shall be subject to our Hosting Terms and Conditions.
2.2. Our ability to provide the Services is dependent upon your full and timely co-operation which You agree to provide and the accuracy and completeness of any information and data You provide to Us. Accordingly, you shall provide Us with access to, and use of, all content, information, data and documentation reasonably required by Us for our performance of the Services under this agreement.
2.3. If You don’t respond to a request for information or content within 30 days of such a request being made by a member of the team allocated to progress the Site, we may conclude that You have cancelled your requirement for the provision of the Services. The consequences of this are set out in clause 9 of these Conditions.
2.4. Save in respect of any content created by Us, you shall be responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the content of the Site.
3. Development and Acceptance of Site
3.1. Once We have completed the design and development of the Site in accordance with the Proposal, we shall run a series of “Acceptance Tests”. The Acceptance Tests test the technical functionality (but not the content) of the Site against any Site specifications in the Proposal or the agreed design. We will explain the detail of such tests at the relevant time.
3.2. “Acceptance” of the Site will occur when the Site has passed the Acceptance Tests. Please be aware that although we aim to deliver a Site that contains all of your requested content, Site Acceptance is not based on the inclusion of all required content if we have requested such content at least 30 days prior to acceptance, but it has not been provided to us.
3.3. Acceptance of the Site will trigger payment of the final instalment of the Fee. We will notify You when the Acceptance Tests have been passed and provide the results of the Acceptance Tests to You in writing if You request.
3.4. If any failure to pass the Acceptance Tests results from a defect which is caused by any act or omission by You, the Site shall be deemed to have passed the Acceptance Tests despite the defect. We will help You to remedy the defect by supplying additional services or products, but You may need to pay Us for such additional services at our then current Fees and prices.
4. Payment Terms
You will pay the Fee on the dates specified above. Invoices will be sent on or before each payment date and must be settled within 14 days of the payment date.
5. Consequences for Late Payment
5.1. If our Fee is not settled in accordance with our payment terms then, without prejudice to any other rights We may have, we reserve the right to suspend performance of the Services until payment is received in full. Prompt payment is therefore required in order that no disruption to the Services provided by Us takes place. We may also be entitled to assume that You no longer require the Services. The consequences of this are set out in clauses 9 and 10 of these Conditions.
6. Disclosure and Intellectual Property
6.1. Neither party will at any time disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the other that was acquired before or during the term of this Agreement or in the course of providing the Services.
