Projects
1. Disclaimer
The following terms and agreements apply to all projects commenced in agreement between the reader of these terms and James Norris, Sole Trader with ABN 63 627 829 100 trading as ManeCloud, henceforth referred to as ‘ManeCloud’. ‘You the client’ henceforth refers to any person who has chosen to engage ManeCloud for a quotation or other provisional service.
By using ManeCloud’s services, and/or by paying the first milestone payment for any project, you the client agree to be legally bound by these terms. You also agree that by accepting any quote from ManeCloud, you have read and are in agreement with all points stated below.
You also agree that these terms are subject to change at ManeCloud’s discretion and that you may request the most current terms and conditions from ManeCloud at any time by contacting [email protected] or by visiting this page.
2. Quote Validity
You the client agree that any quote provided to you by ManeCloud is valid for up to a maximum of 90 days from the date of issue, after which it is no longer valid. If any provided quote is not accepted by you prior to this date, ManeCloud will need to re-assess whether the quote in question can reasonably achieve your specific requirements and may need to prepare a new quote with adjusted scope, cost, timeline and other relevant factors.
3. Copyright
Copyright for any project commenced with ManeCloud, to the extent of applicable law, within reason and excluding third party contributors’ copyrights, will be transferred to you the client, upon receipt of final payment from you against the project. Up until that point, ManeCloud will maintain copyright of the work as a whole, with the same reasonable exclusions.
4. Timelines
All demonstrated timelines are approximate and commence on the first working day of the week immediately following receipt of initial payment, or in the case of ‘ad-hoc tasks’, as agreed between ManeCloud and you the client. ManeCloud will do its utmost to deliver within proposed timelines, however certain events may inevitably change or delay actual delivery times. Timelines are also subject to change depending upon your timely provision of requested feedback to ManeCloud. ManeCloud will make reasonable attempts to inform you if delays are expected during your project.
5. Content
Text and image content must be provided by you the client unless explicitly arranged otherwise. Where it is not possible to source real content, ManeCloud will develop with placeholder content such as lorem ipsum text and stock imagery, or content from a previous website. We encourage you to provide real content as early as possible in the project’s timeline to avoid delays. If preferred, ManeCloud can be engaged to write paid content for you at your request.
6. Payment
For projects higher in value than $1000, ManeCloud is to be paid by you the client – one third of the value stated in this quote as a deposit prior to work commencement, one third of this value upon ManeCloud’s completion of Sprint One (or other appropriate during-project milestone at ManeCloud’s discretion), and one third of this value upon ManeCloud’s completion of the entire project.
For projects lower in value than $1000, ManeCloud is to be paid by you the client – half of the value stated in this quote prior to work commencement, and half of this value upon ManeCloud’s completion of the entire project.
ManeCloud will inform you when any payment milestone is reached, provide a reasonable selection of payment methods and provide reasonable notice of up to 14 days from invoice date to allow for payment, excluding deposits which must be paid prior to project commencement.
Payment is not dependent upon nor linked with website launch in any way. You agree to pay at appropriate milestones and upon completion of the work by ManeCloud at our discretion, and that product launch is at your discretion thereafter. ManeCloud is happy to assist you to launch at your earliest convenience.
7. Scope
You the client agree to thoroughly check the scope of all provided quotes or documents to ensure everything you have requested specifically is included. You agree that you will notify ManeCloud should you require any modifications to any provided quote or document, and ManeCloud will do its utmost in good faith to amend the quote or document to suit your needs.
You also agree that for any work which you request from ManeCloud, should the work lie outside the scope of any quotes or documents provided to you by ManeCloud, you will renumerate ManeCloudbased on our stated hourly rate, included within the specific quote or document. ManeCloud will advise you where requested work lies outside the scope of provided quotes or documents.

ManeCloud requires that adequate time is available as a buffer to ensure that all project launches go as smoothly as possible and will strictly not break this policy in any circumstance.
13. Termination
Upon request of early termination of a project by the client, the full amount quoted for that project will still be payable, unless special circumstances have been otherwise arranged between you the client and ManeCloud.
