Go Media International Terms and Conditions

 

Introduction

 

Thank You for choosing Go Media International

 

 All agreements are made solely between the Client, “You” (the party to whom the Company provides services) and “Go Media International”.

 

Project Action Plan

 

These Terms of Business should be read in conjunction with the Project Action Plan sent to You at the same time (“Project Action Plan”) which incorporates these Terms of Business.  The Project Action Plan sets out, amongst other things, the services Go Media International will provide to you (“Works”) and the fees which will be charged (“Fees”).  Additional defined terms are set out in the Project Action Plan.

​

 Go Media International aims to offer a friendly and efficient service and will exercise reasonable skill, care and diligence in carrying out the Works.

These Terms of Business come into force with immediate effect upon your first instructions or order and these Terms of Business will apply to any current and future instructions or commission that You are kind enough to give Go Media International and to any specific Works referred to in the current or a future Project Action Plan.

​

These Terms of Business and the Project Action Plan constitute the entire agreement between Go Media International and You regarding the Works.  Any additional work not specified in the Project Definition must be authorised by a written change order signed by You and Go Media international and may result in changes to Fees and Disbursements.

​

Your Brief

​

You, as Go Media Internationals client, represent, undertake and warrant to Go Media International that, to the best of Your knowledge:

 

1. any instructions given and materials supplied by You will be accurate and complete and will not cause Go Media International to infringe the rights (including intellectual property rights) of any third party or the laws or regulations (including data protection legislation) of any country.

2.  You have complied and will comply with the Minimum Client Requirements set out in the Project Definition.

 

Go Media International and You agree to work together to complete the Works in a timely manner. Go Media International agrees to work expeditiously to complete the Works in line with the Time frame agreed in the Project Action Plan however this time frame is dependent on Go Media International being provided with Your continued cooperation in order to approve Works at various stages. Go Media International cannot be held responsible for any loss incurred where You (or any third party instructed by You) have not provided clear and complete instructions within any given time limit and with sufficient notice.

​

If You request changes to the Works Go Media International reserves the right to revise the Project Action Plan. If the Works are shortened, delayed, cancelled or terminated early by You, the final invoice will include the balance of the Fees for providing the Works plus any reasonable costs and disbursements incurred by Go Media International due to Your acts or omissions. For example, You shall be liable for the costs and disbursements incurred by Go Media International for pre booked fieldwork, which is delayed, not used or not fully used.

​

Go Media International recommends that You retain copies and back up’s of all materials, data or information provided to and from Go Media International. 

 

Sub-contracting

​

Go Media International reserves the right to assign sub-contractors to this project to ensure the right fit for the job as well as timely completion. Go Media International shall be the primary obligor in relation to such sub-contractors.

​

Go Media International is only responsible for the quality of the service provided by sub-contractors if those sub-contractors have been selected and paid for directly by Go Media International. If You designate a specific sub-contractor, then Go Media International shall not be responsible for the accuracy, completeness or quality of the work of that sub-contractor.

​

Fees and Disbursements

 

Go Media International Fees are exclusive of VAT which must therefore be added at the current rate.  This will be indicated on invoices.  Go Media International’s Fees are also exclusive of disbursements (including travel), which are therefore charged in addition.  Disbursements include payments made or incurred on Your behalf as well as miscellaneous office expenses such as printing, travelling and out of pocket expenses.  Mileage will be charged in line with HMRC guidelines.

​

Payment of Fees for Works shall be on delivery of the Works. Any Works provided over more than one calendar month will be subject to invoicing at the start of each calendar month with the final invoice raised on delivery of the final Works. All invoices shall be due on the invoice date and shall be subject to payment within 14 days.

If You dispute, deem incorrect or inaccurate any invoice, contract or agreement Go Media International must be notified, in writing, within 5 days of receipt. Failure to do so renders any future claim inadmissible.

​

In order for Go Media International to remain in business, payments must be made promptly. A twenty pound (£20.00) additional fee will be incurred if payment is not received within fourteen (14) days of the due date. If an amount remains delinquent thirty (30) days after its due date, an additional five per cent (5%) interest will be added for each month of delinquency from the date of the invoice. Go Media International reserves the right to suspend work without notice until Final Payment is made. Where debt collection or proceedings prove necessary, You agree to pay all fees and costs incurred by that process.

​

Confidentiality and Intellectual Property

​

All information You provide Go Media International will be regarded as confidential to the extent that it is not in the public domain, but You should advise Go media International in writing if any information is particularly sensitive. Go Media International will not divulge any confidential information obtained from You otherwise than in accordance with Your instructions.

​

You unconditionally guarantee that any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks, or other artwork (including all associated intellectual property) furnished by You (or on Your behalf) to Go Media International for inclusion in the Works are owned by You, or that You have permission from the rightful owner to use each of these elements, and will hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Go Media International and its subcontractors from any claim or suit arising from the use of such elements furnished by You.

​

Intellectual property rights (including but not limited to copyright and database rights) in all Works are owned by Go Media International in the first instance.  All intellectual property rights owned by Go Media International in finished, approved Works created specifically for You will be assigned to You automatically on receipt by Go Media International of the Final Payment of Fees in cleared funds.  All Intellectual property rights in third party materials are owned by those third parties and will be licensed to You on the terms set out in the Project action Plan.

​

Go Media International and its sub-contractors retain the right to display Works, graphics and other design elements as examples of their work in their respective portfolios (including online).
