Service Terms & ConditionsMad River Consulting does business on a handshake. We will not use a contract unless that is your preference. An outline formulated in planning meetings and verbal discussion and agreement has proven more than ample to reach the desired goals. The materials you submit for a development project must be your own, or you have permission to use, or they reside in the public domain. Mad River Consulting takes no liability for copyright infringement. For new development projects, a deposit/retainer of 30 to 50% of the initial estimate is requested. Balance will be invoiced in one or two installments. Mad River Web maintains a list of client and colleague email addresses for the purpose of communicating individually or in bulk any information that meets the following criteria.
When sent in bulk, the email will be identified in the subject line by the words ACCOUNT, ALERT or NEW. You are offered the opportunity to opt-out of the ALERTs or NEWs. Website hosting and recurring services (such as IDX) are invoiced quarterly and are due in advance. Payment Terms & ConditionsMad River Web requires a current credit card**** on file for primary and/or back-up payment purposes. Invoices are payable upon receipt. Payment may be made by cash, check, MC, Visa, or EFT in US currency. Please make checks payable to Mad River Consulting and mail to the address below. Interest at the rate of 18% per annum (1.5% per month) will be charged on overdue payments. Client agrees to pay reasonable attorney and collection fees in the event that account becomes overdue. Payment not made within 30 days may result in website and/or email suspension. For accounts seriously overdue, MRW reserves the right to take over ownership of domain names as collateral. Suspended accounts will be assessed a $35.00 reactivation fee. We invoice by the quarter hour for work outside the scope of hosting support, including time for necessary email correspondence. The minimum charge will be a quarter hour. We reserve the right to get behind in our billing without forfeiting any right to payment for services provided. We make every effort to stay current with billing and will typically invoice every 3 to 6 months for sporadic services to ongoing accounts, and every month or two for more frequently serviced accounts. We have at times gone 12 months between billing for minimal services. If you need us to handle your account any differently than we have, please let us know. If you have any fiscal or calendar year-end requests, please let us know.
