- Business information
- Other platforms required for the agreed services
- Google Business Profile
- Google Search Console
- Social media accounts
- Branding materials
Clients are responsible for providing accurate information and maintaining ownership of their business accounts.
Delays caused by missing information, access, approvals, or client decisions may affect project timelines.
Payments
All service fees, payment schedules, and billing terms will be agreed upon before work begins.
- Services must be paid according to the agreed billing schedule.
- Monthly services are billed according to the selected plan.
- One-time projects may require an upfront payment or deposit.
- Additional work outside the agreed scope may require additional fees.
Failure to make payments on time may result in the suspension or termination of services.
Refund & Cancellation Policy
Because digital marketing services involve time, strategy, research, implementation, resources, and work performed specifically for each client, payments for services already performed are generally non-refundable.
Once work has started, fees covering completed work, time spent, third-party costs, advertising spend, subscriptions, or other committed expenses are not eligible for refund unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Clients may cancel ongoing monthly services by providing the notice period specified in their service agreement.
Cancellation will not automatically refund fees for work already completed or the current billing period unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Deposits or upfront payments for website development, design, SEO setup, or other projects may be non-refundable once work has begun because resources and project time have already been allocated.
Advertising budgets paid to third-party platforms such as Google Ads or Meta are separate from our management fees.
Advertising spend is generally non-refundable by us because those funds are paid to the advertising platform.
If you believe you have been incorrectly charged or have a legitimate billing concern, contact us as soon as possible.
We will review the situation and determine whether an adjustment or refund is appropriate under the applicable agreement.
No Guaranteed Results
Digital marketing results depend on many factors outside our control.
- Competition
- Market conditions
- Advertising costs
- Client responsiveness
- Industry conditions
- Search engine algorithm changes
- Customer demand
- Website quality
- Business reputation
- Third-party platform changes
We do not guarantee specific rankings, traffic levels, leads, phone calls, revenue, or other business outcomes unless a specific written agreement states otherwise.
Our goal is to build and continuously improve marketing systems designed to support measurable business growth.
SEO and Search Engine Changes
Search engines and platforms can change their algorithms, policies, ranking systems, features, and requirements at any time.
We cannot guarantee that a website, Google Business Profile, advertisement, or other digital asset will maintain a specific ranking or position.
Our strategies are developed using current best practices and may be adjusted as search behavior and platform systems evolve.
PPC and Advertising
For paid advertising services, clients are responsible for the agreed advertising budget in addition to any management fees.
Advertising results may vary depending on competition, demand, budget, targeting, landing pages, market conditions, and advertising platform policies.
We do not guarantee a specific number of clicks, calls, leads, conversions, or sales.
Third-party advertising platforms may reject, suspend, restrict, or modify campaigns according to their own policies.
Website Development
For website design and development projects, the scope of work, features, revisions, deadlines, and payment terms will be defined in the applicable project agreement.
Client delays in providing content, images, approvals, access, or other required materials may affect project timelines.
Unless otherwise agreed, third-party costs such as domain registration, hosting, premium plugins, software licenses, stock assets, or external services may be billed separately.
Third-Party Platforms
Our services may depend on third-party platforms such as Google, Microsoft, Meta, hosting providers, analytics platforms, advertising networks, directories, and other services.
We do not control these platforms and cannot guarantee their availability, policies, features, rankings, approval decisions, or continued operation.
Changes made by third-party platforms may affect the performance of our services.
Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, clients retain ownership of materials they provide to us.
Ownership of websites, designs, content, strategies, code, graphics, marketing materials, and other deliverables will be determined by the applicable proposal or service agreement.
Third-party materials, software, plugins, fonts, images, and licenses remain subject to their respective owners’ terms.
We may request permission to display completed work as a portfolio or case study unless the client has requested otherwise in writing.
Confidentiality
We will make reasonable efforts to protect confidential business information shared with us during the course of providing services.
Clients are also expected to keep confidential any proprietary strategies, materials, or information provided to them by us.
Communication and Approvals
Clients are responsible for reviewing and approving materials when requested.
Delays in communication or approval may delay implementation, campaigns, website launches, or other project milestones.
We may use email, project management platforms, messaging applications, or other agreed communication channels for business communication.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, HomeServiceSEO will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or loss-of-profit damages arising from the use of our website or services.
Our total liability relating to a service will be limited to the amount paid by the client for that service during the applicable period, except where such limitation is prohibited by law.
Termination
Either party may terminate an ongoing service relationship according to the cancellation terms stated in the applicable service agreement.
- Payments are overdue
- Required access is not provided
- The client materially breaches the agreement
- The client requests unlawful or prohibited activity
- Continued service creates unreasonable risk to our business
Termination does not remove payment obligations for services already performed or expenses already incurred.
