What we will not do

Basis of Charging Fees
- Our “Dedicated” service is supplied on a “Time and materials” based and sold in daily, weekly, or monthly blocks.
- Our “Ad-hoc” or “Bucket” service is also “Time and Materials”; the service is sold in minimum 10, 20, 40 hours blocks but worked in 10-minute blocks
Acceptance of Services
- At various intervals throughout a project, you will be asked to view, test, and signoff certain sections. As a project is a combination of these smaller sections we ask this is done in a timely manner; delay in this process can cause delay to the project as a whole and delay the overall timeframe.
- Once Trywebcloud has fulfilled the obligated booking period purchased or the project has been completed the project shall be tested accordingly. If any failure to pass the test results from a defect which is caused by an act of omission of you, or by one of your subcontractors or agents, the project will be deemed to have passed the test notwithstanding such non-Trywebcloud defect. We may provide assistance reasonably requested by you in relation to supplying a suitable remedy for any non-Trywebcloud defect by supplying additional services. These would be offered at the current fees and prices.
- Back-up: it is the client’s responsibility to ensure they have a back-up of the work. We recommend taking back-ups of the work at all stages (we recommend an automated scheduled back-up, which can be set-up alongside any work by our server technicians). Live servers, all development work takes place “off-site” on a Sandbox environment provided by us (Digital Marketing (SEO) work does take place on the live server). On occasion, it may be requested that development takes place on live servers (time constraints, upon client request, licensing reasons for example). This is done so at your own risk. We do not take responsibility for any impact this may have on either the live site or your ability to work. We strongly recommend the use of a Sandbox server.
