    1. the Client is required to sign a waiver to confirm the Client is aware of the risks;
    2. the Client understands and recognises that not regularly updating the website software will eventually cause the website security to be compromised, and without the maintenance agreement that responsibility lies entirely with the Client;
    3. the Client has been informed that any damage done to the website by a third party that gains unauthorised access to the website will be repaired at the Client’s own expense, may impact the Client’s position and reputation with search engines and other third parties, and may lead to the website being unavailable for a period of time;
    4. the Client confirms that NIMBLER bears no responsibility for third parties gaining unauthorised access to the website or any consequences resulting from that unauthorised access, including but not limited to theft of personal or client information, harmful links added to the website and defacement of the website; and
    5. the Client has been informed that security breaches may in some cases lead to suspension of the hosting package to protect other clients operating from the same server, which may result in website and email outages for the duration of the suspension.
  3. If the Client takes out a website maintenance agreement, NIMBLER will:
    1. update the website software (i.e. WordPress and its plugins) regularly to maintain an adequate level of security on the website;
    2. fix any issues that arise from the aforementioned website software updates to maintain a similar appearance and similar functionality on the website; and
    3. enhance security by implementing technology that allows NIMBLER to monitor security and enforce a stricter security policy.
  4. The website maintenance agreement covers fixing the website after an unauthorised individual aiming to do damage (a “Hacker”) gained access and did damage to the website, provided the Client hosts the website on one of NIMBLER’s servers, the Hacker did not gain access through one of the Client’s own user accounts, and the Client was not in any way negligent with the website’s access credentials.

The Client reserves the right to make changes to the work within the allocated revisions at any time after that, provided the relevant invoice has been settled or is not overdue.
  6. The Client agrees to provide any information required by NIMBLER before commencement of the project to enable NIMBLER to complete the work speedily and efficiently. In the case of sensitivity to information being disclosed, such as trade secrets, patents, business know-how etc. a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) shall be signed between NIMBLER and the Client.
  7. The Client agrees that a HTML page built from a static design may not exactly match the original design due to differences in display size (i.e. resolution) and the rendering of HTML code by different internet browsers. NIMBLER agrees to try and match the design as closely as possible when developing the website code.
  8. NIMBLER endeavours to create pages that are search engine friendly, however, NIMBLER gives no guarantee that the website will get listed by search engines nor the ranking of the website in search results. In no event shall NIMBLER be held liable for any changes in search engine rankings.

  10. After completion of the website, the Client, or any third party of their choosing, may wish to edit their website code themselves to make changes. The Client agrees that in so doing they assume full responsibility for any issues which may occur as a result of changing the code. If the Client, or a third party, changes the website code and this results in functionality errors or the page displaying incorrectly, then NIMBLER reserves the right to quote for work to repair the website.
  11. The Client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless NIMBLER from any claim resulting from any damages resulting from security breaches, including but not limited to, prolonged website unavailability, defacement of the website, damage to reputation and theft of information. If the Client has maintained and paid for a maintenance agreement from the moment the website was launched, then NIMBLER will agree to repair the website to its original state at no cost to the Client.
  12. NIMBLER reserves the right to assign subcontractors in whole or as part of a project if needed.
