Terms

We aim to complete your design in a reasonable timeframe and to the best of our ability. You will provide all requested information required in your web site design in a timely fashion that allows us to comply with the agreed timeframe. 

We reserve the right to refuse to build and or host a web site that is deemed inappropriate. Bracora will be the sole judge of what is deemed to be inappropriate. This may include, but is not limited to, the following:

  • Site that infringe copyright
  • Site content that is contrary to UK Law
  • Site with adult oriented material including pornography
  • Site that contain content that is racially or religiously distasteful

We shall submit your website to the major search engines as part of the web design process. However clients may submit their own entries to particular search engines if they require. No client can provide a guarantee of placement or ranking in any given search engine but we optimise our sites by effective use of meta tags that are used by the major search tools such as Google. We accept no responsibility or liability if any search engine, online directory or search site chooses not to list a client's web site.

All material, including text and images, supplied by the client will remain the client's property. All such material will be assumed to be the property of the client. The client is responsible for the copyright of such material that will be used in their web site.
The copyright and intellectual property for all products and services provided by Bracora will remain the property of Bracora unless otherwise stated in writing to the client. This includes all the software programming required to run the site. The copyright of images or photos used in the design will remain with their respective owners.
Software written for a clients web site is provided 'as is' without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of fitness for a purpose, or the warranty of non-infringement.

The Company offers support on an email basis only. We shall provide free and unlimited support to the best of our ability on matters directly relating to the Client’s web. This lasts as long as the Client uses the Company service to host the website. The Company is under no obligation to provide ad-hoc support on general IT matters, not relating to our products or services.

We reserve the right suspend without notice any websites that have not been fully paid.

This agreement will be governed by Scottish Law

Hosting terms

We host your web site using the latest Microsoft web technology platform and we shall use reasonable endeavours to make sure your web site is online at all times. However we shall not, in any event, be liable for interruptions of Service or down-time of the Server.

You will also be bound by our hosting terms and conditions and these are available on request.

Each site, unless otherwise stated, is allowed 5GB of monthly data transfer. Clients exceeding this on a regular basis will be asked to pay for additional bandwidth. This is charged at £5 (GBP) per 2GB per month. Hosting charges for the first year are included in the price of the web site design. Hosting charges after the year are will be due on the anniversary of the contract. Standard hosting charges start from £75 for a year


All our websites come with 1 free domain name (co.uk or .com). Any other domain names variants will incur a small charge (details on request). Bracora will own these domain names and they will be rented to our customers. When the domain name expires (2 years for .co.uk and 1 year for .com) we will automatically renew this if you are still a customer of ours. If a customer wishes to own his domain outright then they are welcome to do this on their own or we can provide this service for a fee (£30 per 2 years for co.uk & £20 per year for .com). We will endeavour to remind our customers when the renewal is due but domain name renewal is the sole responsibility of the customer.

We make no representation that the domain name you wish to register is capable of being registered by or for you or that it will be registered in your name. You should therefore not assume registration of your requested domain name(s) until you have been notified that it has or they have been registered. Any action taken by you before such notification is at your risk. You are also bound by the terms and conditions of use applied by the relevant naming authority.

Prices and Charges

For our standard service a deposit of 20% is due before any work is undertaken. We shall begin working on your site when we have recieved this payment. Our standard package comes with a 30 day go-live no quibble money back guarentee subject to deductions already paid by us to third parties. This would nornally be no more than the initial 20% deposit. Bracora reserves the right to re-sell the design to other clients if you cancel our contract.

For the professional service you will issued a fixed quote for the work. This will include a breakdown of what fees are payable and when. This would normally include

  • initial fee
  • fees due after project milestones
  • completion fee  

Bracora reserves the right to re-sell the design to other clients if fees are not paid in full on completion of the project. 

We expect payment by credit/debit card using our credit card processing provider PayPal.

 
We reserve the right to alter prices at any time without notice. If a client has a valid quote that has not expired they will NOT be subject to any increase.

  • by the client emailing us with a reason for termination
