Terms and Conditions

Terms and Conditions

These are the standard terms and conditions for design, marketing and Web Development services and apply to all contracts and all work undertaken by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd for its clients.

A 50% deposit of the total fee payable, unless organized prior with a Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd project manager under our proposal is due immediately upon you instructing us to proceed with services provided by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd.

The remaining fees shall become due when the work is completed to reasonable satisfaction but subject to the terms of the “approval of work” and “rejected work” clauses. We reserve the right not to commence any work until the deposit has been paid in full, which may extend approximate time frames.

The 50% deposit is only refundable if we have not fulfilled our obligations to deliver services. The deposit is non-refundable if the services work has been started and you terminate the contract through no fault of ours.

Work produced whether experimentally or otherwise, at the customer’s request will be charged for unless otherwise agreed in writing. If a customer wishes to terminate a service order after services have started, a termination invoice will be drawn up charging for 50% of the remaining total project costing, on top of the 50% deposit paid.

Failure by the Customer to meet financial obligations may result in legal proceedings by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd under which circumstances all legal costs and other administrative expenses will be recoverable in full by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd.

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, photographs, written copy, logos, applications, servers and other printed material. Where there is any delay in supplying these materials to us which leads to a delay in the completion of work, we have the right to extend any previously agreed deadlines by a reasonable amount.

Where you fail to supply materials, and that prevents the progress of the work, we have the right to invoice you for any part or parts of the work already completed.

We are pleased to offer you the opportunity to make revisions to services outlined in the supplied project proposal with the revision allotments. However, we have the right to limit the number of revisions to the amount of time specified in the project proposal and may charge for additional changes at an hourly rate of $110.00 if you make a change to the original design specification.

Any time frames or estimates that we give are contingent upon your full co-operation and complete and final content. During the depending service there are 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 daily basis in order to expedite the feedback process.

On completion of the work you will be notified and have the opportunity to review it. You must notify us in writing of any unsatisfactory points within 5 business days of such notification. Any of the work which has not been reported in writing to us as unsatisfactory within the 5 business day review period will be deemed to have been approved. Once approved, or deemed approved, work cannot subsequently be rejected and the contract will be deemed to have been completed and the balance of the project price will become due.

Whilst every care is taken by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd to carry out the instructions of the Customer, it is the Customer’s responsibility to undertake a final proof reading of all services provided by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd. Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd shall be under no liability whatever for any errors not corrected by the client in the final proof reading or ready to publish stage. All clients are urged to check final proofs before publishing online or to print. Should the Customer’s alterations require additional proofs this shall be invoiced as an extra at an hourly rate of $110.00.

If you reject any of our work within the 5 business day review period, or 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 at an end and take measures to recover payment for the completed work.

Upon completion of the milestone or project, the balance of the project will be due. All services provided by Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd remains the intellectual property of Red Cup Media Group Pty Ltd until the balance is completed and cleared.

You must obtain all necessary permissions and authorities in respect of the use of all copy, graphic images, registered company logos, names and trademarks, or any other material that you supply to us to include in your website or web applications.
