WHEREAS, Client desires to engage the Agency to provide Services related to web design, development, and eCommerce optimization (the "Services"), and Agency desires to be engaged by Client for the Services on the terms and in accordance with the pricing and schedule set forth herein and the applicable statement of work;
WHEREAS, Client and Agency further desire to agree on certain terms and conditions as set forth below that will apply to any Services provided by Agency to Client.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Client hereby engages Agency to provide the Services necessary to successfully complete projects in accordance with the specifications contained in the statement of work, and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the additional terms of any approved statement of work which will be signed by both parties and attached as a schedule to this Agreement (each referred to as a "SOW").
Agency hereby accepts such engagement and agrees to make itself available and to render the Services under this Agreement in a professional, high quality and timely manner, consistent with a high level of industry professional standards.
Client shall make every effort to fully cooperate with the Agency and provide such information as is reasonably required for the Agency to effectively fulfill and perform the Services. Client agrees to make its employees and representatives available to the Agency according to the relevant areas of responsibility as needed for completing the Services set forth in the SOW.
If the Client cannot or otherwise fails to meet required deadlines or deliver to the Agency the information necessary for the Agency to perform the Services listed in the SOW, then Client shall not hold the Agency liable for failure of execution of Services listed in the SOW.
Agency agrees to complete the Services in accordance with the specifications provided by Client, including but not limited to any written requirements documents provided to Agency (the "Specifications"), and including all information, documents and other materials provided by Client to Agency for inclusion in the Project.
The Services include those tasks and Deliverables set forth in the Specifications and the applicable SOW. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Deliverable" is any item (including intermediate and final work product) that Agency is obligated to prepare or provide to Client as set forth in the Specifications and/or in the applicable SOW, including but not limited to software requirement specifications, functional specifications, reports, software, templates, designs, implementations, schematics, prototypes, programs in source and object code form, interfaces and documentation and instructions.
All changes to the Deliverables must be approved in advance by both the Client and the Agency in writing.
Agency will use its best efforts to complete the Services to Client's reasonable satisfaction on or before the milestone dates set forth on the applicable SOW. Client agrees to timely provide Agency with any information and materials as reasonably requested by Agency if required by Agency to meet the foregoing delivery requirements.
All changes to the delivery schedule must be approved in advance by both the Client and the Agency in writing.
Agency will be entitled to, as compensation for all the Services described in this Agreement, payment at such times and in such amounts as set forth on the applicable SOW, and these amounts will be payable by Client within 7 days after the later of (a) the time specified in the SOW, or (b) receipt of an invoice from Agency describing the Services provided and the payment due.
There will be no other charges for the Services to be provided under the applicable SOW except for those fees and expenses expressly stated in that SOW, which will include all applicable taxes or other related charges.
If after repeated attempts to begin, continue, or finalize the delivery of Services, Deliverables or the final Project, the Client fails to participate, or becomes otherwise unresponsive to Agency requests for a period of thirty (30) days, the parties agree that the Project may be considered abandoned by the Client, and the Agency shall immediately be entitled to receive full compensation for all the Services, Deliverables or the entire Project described in this Agreement that have been delivered to, and accepted by, the Client.
The Agency shall also be permitted to charge Client, at the applicable hourly rate set forth in the SOW to this Agreement, for time incurred by Agency modifying any Project or Deliverable if the modification requested by Client causes the Project or Deliverable to materially deviate from the applicable Specification provided in the SOW. The Parties shall agree on the additional charges in writing before the Agency will commence the additional Services.
Except as otherwise agreed by Agency and Client in the applicable SOW, the following provisions will apply for delivery and acceptance of any Deliverables provided hereunder. The standard for acceptance for Deliverables will be material conformity to the specifications set forth in the Specifications and as otherwise expressly communicated by Client.
Client will, within 7 business days from receipt, accept or reject the initial version of the Deliverable and any corrected version of each version of any Deliverable, and will notify Agency in writing of any error, deficiencies or inadequacies in the version within that time period.
If Client rejects the initial version or any corrected version of any work, Agency will immediately commence using its best efforts to correct such error and will have a period of at least 14 business days from receipt of the written rejection to correct all errors, deficiencies or inadequacies specified by Client and submit a revised version.
Agency and Client agree that upon delivery by Agency of an accepted version of any Deliverable, Client will have 30 days to test the Deliverable and determine whether it has been delivered to its reasonable satisfaction. On or before the last day of such 30 day period, Client may provide Agency with written notice that final acceptance has occurred ("Final Acceptance").
All source code and other files with respect to any Deliverables that may be edited will be placed by Agency on the server location designated by Client.
Upon Final Acceptance of any Deliverable, all object code, together with all final source code, designs, passwords and other files and materials will be uploaded by the Agency to the Client's server location designated by Client ("Final Delivery").
It is understood and agreed by the Parties to this Agreement that the Project and software is being developed by the Agency for the sole and exclusive use of Client. The Agency agrees that the development of the Project (but excluding Developer Tools) is "work made for hire" within the meaning of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended from time to time, and that only upon the full and complete payment of all Compensation required by this Agreement to the Agency, the Project and software shall be the sole property of Client with the following exception of Developer Tools.

In the event that it should be determined that any of such Project or supporting documentation does not qualify as a "Work Made for Hire", Agency will and hereby does assign to Client for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged all right, title and interest that it may possess in such Project and the underlying materials and documentation including, but not limited to, all copyright and proprietary rights relating thereto.

Agency will not allow or permit disclosure or access to, or transmit or transfer the Confidential Information or Confidential Materials to any third party without the prior written consent of the Client.
Agency will disclose the Confidential Information only to those of its employees, independent contractors and consultants who have a need to know and who have given their agreement to keep such information confidential.
