  • DNS can not be liable or become involved in any disputes between the site owner and their clients and cannot be held responsible for any wrongdoing on the part of a site owner. E.g. any disputes related to content/images that have been provided to us for inclusion on the site.

Creative Services

  • All creative services (design, content writing, and others) include a minimum of fifteen days of free revisions by default, unless specified otherwise. All revisions after this period will only be considered at an extra cost and to be confirmed by the client.

  • The client is expected to test fully any application or programming relating to a site developed by us before being made generally available for use. Where “bugs”, errors or other issues are found after the application is live, we will endeavour to correct these issues for a limited period agreed between both parties at the beginning of the project.

Website Hosting

  • DNS hosting services are closely monitored 24×7 and our support team makes sure that the unavailability or interruption of this service is minimised.

Website Optimisation – SEO and SEM

  • Due to external factors, such as changes to the way search engines rank websites, we cannot offer any guarantees regarding the ranking position that websites will achieve. The process of optimising websites itself will bring in more traffic and hits and the client will the number of visitors naturally increase.

  • We only use ‘white hat techniques’ when optimising websites and our main goal is to achieve a top ten ranking for some pre-approved keywords or key phrases within six months of undertaking the optimisation process. Due to the work involved payment is always required in advance and we are unable to offer any refund to this type of service.

  • If accounts are not settled or if we have not been contacted regarding the delay, the service may be suspended or denied and contents may be deleted (e.g. website and its data, or domain name(s) may be lost forever). Since the suspension is a manual process, a re-activation or late payment fee may apply.
