the nature of electronic communications,
even communications that seem to be

9. Website Construction Procedure:
With the help and input from the Client,
BS will prepare the appropriate custom
design and text for the BandSpace. Client
must submit complete Content to the
design department before site construction
begins on the custom Website. Client
may submit Content directly to designer
through e-mail, or regular mail. After
Content is submitted by the Client the
site will move to the layout and design
department. Once the layout and design
are approved by the Client the site
will move to the text and html department.
BS will add the text and Content to
the Website. After the Client approves
the text and Content added to the Website,
the Website will go live. BS will not
be held liable for accuracy of information,
typos, or spelling errors in any of
the content approved by the Client and
published on the Website. Client will
be notified by e-mail that the Website
is now live. Client understands that
the Website may be taken live “as-is”
or “under construction”
if we do not receive Client’s
response to missing information requests
or requests to approve completed Website
within two weeks.
BS does not guarantee a time frame
for completion of the custom Website
as Content may continue to be submitted
by Client throughout the design process.
BS cannot start and complete the design
of the custom Website until complete
Content is submitted. If Client continues
submitting additional Content, this
increases the design time frame. If
Client does not submit complete Content
and BS is not able to start or complete
the custom Website design, Client is
still responsible for all fees incurred
including, but not limited to, set-up,
enhancement and monthly hosting charges
that begin accruing from date of sale.
10. Website Change Requests
During Design Process:
BS agrees to build a BandSpace to specifications
quoted per the original sale and original
invoice. Any additions or changes requested
outside of the scope of the original
sale prior to the custom Website going
live will be billed at BS’ standard
hourly rate. BS is not obligated to
complete Client requests or changes
outside of the scope of work or the
original invoice quote. If BS does not
agree to Client requests or changes,
Client is still obligated to pay all
fees incurred and due.
There will be NO REFUNDS of any kind
for pages that have already begun the
designing process. All hours of designing
work put into each BandSpace has to
be accounted for. Unlike a product,
we are a service that's time and effort
cannot be refunded. If Client has received
an initial or completed BandSpaces design,
BandSpaces Inc. is in no way obligated to
refund complete payment. By accepting
these Terms of Service, you are agreeing
that no chargebacks will be placed or
refunds be demanded. Failure to meet
these terms could result in legal action.
11. Billing Policy:

full at the time of the original sale.
Failure to pay will result in ceasing
completion of the BandSpace.

the original site will be due and billed
separately and at the time of request,
unless an updating package was purchased.
BS reserves the right to change prices
at any time including hourly design
fees.
BS charges a $25.00 fee for returned
cheques.
BS does not offer refunds on any projects
that have begun the designing process.
Refunds will only be given proir to
any initial creation, and you agree
that BS may keep a small deposit to
cover any fees incurred such as Paypal
transaction fees as well as an administration
fee. This administration fee covers
any research time and/or hourly rate
the project manager has contributed
to your project.
BS reserves the right to collect late
fees from non-paying clients at our
discretion. Failure to complete payment
for projects that have reached the final
stage of completion will result in ceasing
or removal of all BS work until full
payment is made. If client decides to
hault or stop the project at hand, remaining
payments will be due immediately. If
BS receives no response over a prolonged
period of time regarding the project,
all remaining payments will be due immediately.
Client agrees to pay in a timely manner
and recognizes BS's no-tollerance payment
schedule. Failure to meet these requirements
may result in filing a report with a
collections agency and legal action.
