1. Authorization

You (“Client”) are engaging magIMPACT Inc. (“Company”) as an independent contractor for the development, deployment, hosting & support of Client website.

2. Prohibited/Restricted Content

For various reasons, including contractual obligations, legal liability, conflict of interest, etc. there are certain websites we cannot and/or will not create. These include websites that are related to, contain or endorse any of the following subject matter:

• Hate speech
• Offensive, derogatory, or objectionable content
• Political content
• Illegal activities
• Counterfeit goods
• Dangerous products or services
• Pharmaceutical/psychiatric pills, products or services
• Pornographic or sexual content
• Dishonest behavior
• Fake or questionable news and information
• Any misrepresentation or deception

Client agrees that Client website will not contain, relate to, or endorse any of the above-listed subject matter. Furthermore, Client agrees that Company may at Company’s own sole discretion refuse to create a website on any subject matter that it deems to be a legal liability or otherwise inappropriate for Company to be involved with.

3. Payment

Fees to Company are due in accordance with the following pricing agreement:

If one-time payment option is selected, Client shall pay $750 up front.

If 3-payment installment plan option is selected, Client shall pay $300 up front, $300 the following month, and $300 the next month after that, for a total of $900.

No work will begin on design and development until full payment is received, unless an installment payment plan is agreed to up front.

In the case of an installment payment plan, the initial payment is due prior to commencement of project, and subsequent payments are due on the same day of the month for each following month until the full amount is paid. For example, if the initial payment was made on March 7, and three total payments are required, additional payments will be due April 7 and May 7.

If a due date for a particular month doesn’t exist as an actual date on the calendar, then that due date for that particular month will be moved to the next immediately following day. For example, if initial payment is made on January 30, the next payment will be due March 1 (because Feb 30 doesn’t exist on the calendar) and the payment after that will be due Mar 30.

All payments will be made in U.S. Dollars.

If any payment on an installment payment plan is not made by its due date, work on the project will immediately be suspended. Furthermore, a $10 late payment fee may be assessed for each late payment. The late payment fee becomes part of the current payment due, and the payment is not considered paid until any late fees are also paid.
