The following terms and conditions apply to all services provided by GP Webs to the Client.
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 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
Charges for services to be provided by GP Webs are defined in project quotation that Client receives via e-mail. Quotations are valid for period of 30 days. GP Webs reserves the right to alter or decline to provide a quotation after expiry of the 30 days.
Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all 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 three (33) percent of the project quotation total due upon completion of the work, prior to upload to the server or release of materials.
Client Review
GP Webs will provide the Client with an opportunity to review the appearance and content of the website/app during the design phase and once the overall website/app development is completed. At the completion of the project, such materials will be deemed to be accepted and approved unless the Client notifies GP Webs otherwise within ten (10) days of the date the materials are made available to the Client.
Failure to provide required website content:
To remain efficient we must ensure that work we have programmed is carried out at the scheduled time. On occasions we may have to reject offers for other work and enquiries to ensure that your work is completed at the time arranged.
This is why we ask that you provide all the required information in advance. On any occasion where progress cannot be made with your website because we have not been given the required information in the agreed time frame, and we are delayed as result, we reserve the right to impose a surcharge of up to 25
If you agree to provide us with the required information and subsequently fail to do within one week of project commencement we reserve the right to close the project and the balance remaining becomes payable immediately. Simply put, all the above condition says is do not give us the go ahead to start until you are ready to do so.
Payment
Invoices will be provided GP Webs upon completion but before publishing the live website. Invoices are normally sent via email; however, the Client may choose to receive hard copy invoices. Invoices are due upon receipt. 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 per month of the total amount due.
Additional Expenses
Client agrees to reimburse GP Webs for any additional expenses necessary for the completion of the work. Examples would be purchase of additional email account, hosting or domain etc.
Web Browsers
GP Webs makes every effort to ensure websites are designed to be viewed by the majority of visitors.

Client agrees that GP Webs cannot guarantee correct functionality with all browser software across different operating systems.
GP Webs 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
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 GP Webs’s Web space, GP Webs will, at its discretion, remove all such material from its web space. GP Webs 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.

The Client must obtain permission and rights to use any information or files that are copyrighted by a third party.

Design Credit
A link to GP Webs 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. The Client also agrees that the website developed for the Client may be presented in GP Webs’s portfolio.
Domain Names
GP Webs may purchase domain names on behalf of the Client. Payment and renewal of those domain names is the responsibility of the Client.
