Subject to our right to amend the specification (see 4.3) we will supply the Services to you in accordance with the specification for the Services appearing on our website at the date of your order in all material respects, unless otherwise agreed with one of our authorised representatives in which case variations in terms will be clarified to you in writing via email.

Reasonable care and skill. We warrant to you that the Services will be provided using reasonable care and skill.
Time for performance for your initial order. We guarantee delivery of your initial order only within six months from your campaign live date. If you have not previously purchased any of our Services, you can reasonably expect a two to four week warming period prior to your campaign going live and us being able to deliver visible results from our Services. However, this estimated period may be shorter or longer and will be communicated to you upon acceptance of your order and on an ongoing basis thereafter should there be a variation in this estimate.The time for performance as indicated above excludes a two week period from 23rd December to 5th January, where we are closed for trading. Should the performance period above cover all or part of this closure period, the time for performance is extended by the period of the closure which overlaps with your campaign. Please note that we will only commence building your campaign on the first Monday after the week you have both made payment for your initial order and have provided a correctly completed onboarding form, unless this Monday is a UK public holiday in which case work will instead commence on the next working day.

If we are unable to fulfil our time for performance guarantee in full and provide a reasonable remedy to deliver our Services, we will refund you for the price paid for the Services by bank transfer or a method otherwise agreed with you in writing. We will deduct from the refund an amount for the supply of the Services provided for the period up to the date when you give notice of cancellation, in accordance with 4.2. The amount we deduct will reflect the amount that has been supplied as a proportion of the entirety of the order value.
Time for performance for subsequent orders: Due to the complex nature of our Services, for any subsequent orders beyond your initial order we are unable to make any guarantees as to the timing of when we will have delivered all and any of the Services which form part of these terms and conditions. However, we will endeavour to provide our Services to you in the shortest possible time frame whilst exercising reasonable care and skill. Any delivery dates communicated to you outside of these terms and conditions are estimates and indications only and do not automatically give you the right to cancel your Services and request a refund should these delivery dates not be met.
