Terms & Conditions of Service





The following Terms and Conditions of Service apply to all products and services provided by Bureau Bonanza and in the event of any dispute are governed by the laws of Ireland.

All work is carried out by Bureau Bonanza on the understanding that the client has agreed to our terms and conditions.

Copyright is retained by Bureau Bonanza on all design work including words, pictures, ideas, visuals and illustrations unless specifically released in writing and after all costs have been settled.

If a choice of designs is presented and one is chosen for your project, only that solution is deemed to be given by us as fulfilling the contract. All other designs remain the property of Bureau Bonanza, unless specifically agreed in writing.

Project Acceptance


At the time of proposal, Bureau Bonanza will provide the customer with a written estimate or quotation by email.

A copy of the written estimate or quotation is to be signed and dated by the customer to indicate acceptance and should be returned to Bureau Bonanza.

Alternatively, the client may send an official purchase order in reply to the estimate or quotation which binds the client to accept our terms and conditions, or an email acknowl- edging acceptance of the quotation.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Bureau Bonanza Terms & Conditions are what govern the job, not any conditions on the customer’s purchase order.

Design Charges


Charges for design services to be provided by Bureau Bonanza will be set out in the written estimate or quotation that is provided to the customer. At the time of the customer’s signed acceptance of this estimate or quotation, indicating acceptance of the Terms & Conditions, a non-refundable payment of 50% of the quoted fee will become immediately due.

Unless agreed otherwise with the Client, all design services require an advance payment of a minimum of fifty (50) percent of the project quotation total before the work commences or is supplied to the Client for review. The remaining fifty (50) percent of the project quotation total will be due upon completion of the work prior to upload to the server or release of materials.

Source Files


We will supply proofs and PDF files as appropriate for printing, or other graphic files as detailed in the job scope or request.

Charges for design work do not cover the release of our copyright design source files, including but not restricted to indd, psd, AI, png, fla or other source files or raw code; if the Client requires these files for transfer to an in-house or other designer, they will be subject to a separate quotation or ‘buy-out’ charge.

Charges for Other Services


Charges for any additional services requested during the project that are over and above the estimated time or out of scope, will become fully payable (100% of the quoted amount) at the time of estimate or quotation acceptance.

Payment


The customer will be provided with an Approval Form or Proof Email, and an Invoice prior to final publication. At this time the remainder of the amount due will become payable and the customer will also be required to sign and return the Approval Form or signify approval by email to Bureau Bonanza.

Any invoice queries must be submitted by email within 14 days of the invoice date.

Accounts which remain outstanding for 30 days after the date of invoice, will incur late payment interest charge at the Bank of England Base Rate plus 8% on the outstanding amount from the date due until the date of payment.

Payments may be made by online transfer.

Payments made by cheque must be previously agreed and may be subject to an administra- tion charge. Cheques should not be sent in regular mail unless sent recorded delivery.

Publication and/or release of work done by Bureau Bonanza on behalf of the client, may not take place before cleared funds have been received.

Returned cheques will incur an additional fee of €50 per returned cheque. Bureau Bonanza reserves the right to consider an account to be in default in the event of a returned cheque.

Default


An account shall be considered default if it remains unpaid for 30 days from the date of invoice, or following a returned cheque. Bureau Bonanza shall be entitled to remove Bureau Bonanza‘s and/or the customer’s material from any and all computer systems, until the amount due has been fully paid. This includes any and all unpaid monies due for services, including, but not limited to, hosting, domain registration, search engine submission, design and maintenance, sub-contractors, printers, photographers and libraries.

Removal of such materials does not relieve the customer of its obligation to pay the due amount.

Customers whose accounts become default agree to pay all Bureau Bonanza ‘s reasonable legal and accounting expenses and third party collection agency fees in the enforcement of the debt and these Terms and Conditions.

Copyrights and Trademarks


By supplying text, images and other data to Bureau Bonanza for inclusion in the customer’s website or other medium, the customer declares that it holds the appropriate copyright and/or trademark permissions. The ownership of such materials will remain with the customer, or rightful copyright or trademark owner.

Any artwork, images, or text supplied and/or designed by Bureau Bonanza on behalf of the customer, will remain the property of Bureau Bonanza and/or its suppliers unless other- wise agreed in writing. A licence for use of the copyright material is granted to the custom use materials (for which Bureau Bonanza holds the copyright) in forms other than for which it was originally supplied, and Bureau Bonanza may, at its discretion, grant this and may charge for the additional usage. Such permission must be obtained in writing before any of the aforesaid artwork, images, text, or other data is used.

Any software, code, plugin or other third party material used in a web or digital project remains the property of the creator and any ongoing licence fees or fees for upgrades are the responsibility of the client, not Bureau Bonanza.

By supplying images, text, or any other data to Bureau Bonanza, the customer grants Bureau Bonanza permission to use this material freely in the pursuit of the design.

Should Bureau Bonanza, or the customer supply an image, text, audio clip or any other file for use in a website, multimedia presentation, print item, exhibition, advertisement or any other medium believing it to be copyright and royalty free, which subsequently emerges to have such copyright or royalty usage limitations, the customer will agree to allow Bureau Bonanza to remove and/or replace the file on the site.

The customer agrees to fully indemnify and hold Bureau Bonanza free from harm in any and all claims resulting from the customer in not having obtained all the required copyright, and/or any other necessary permissions.

Alterations


The customer agrees that changes required over and above the estimated work, or in addition to the agreed scope, or where the client makes changes to the supplied copy or changes required to be carried out after acceptance of the draft design, will be liable to a separate charge.

The customer also agrees that Bureau Bonanza holds no responsibility for any amend- ments made by any third party, before or after a design is published.

Licensing


Any design, copywriting, drawing or idea created for the customer by Bureau Bonanza, or any of its contractors, is licensed for use by the client on a one-time only basis and may not be modified, re-used, or re-distributed in any way or form without the express written consent of Bureau Bonanza and any of its relevant sub-contractors.

Other services such as printing, display panel production, filmwork, website uploading, publishing etc either contracted on the client’s behalf constitute a separate project and can be treated as a separate charge.

The customer agrees to allow Bureau Bonanza to place a small credit on printed material exhibition displays, advertisements and/or a link to Bureau Bonanza own website on the customer’s website. This will usually be in the form of a small logo or line of text placed towards the bottom of the page.The customer also agrees to allow Bureau Bonanza to place websites and other designs, along with a link to the client’s site on Bureau Bonanza own website for demonstration purposes and to use any designs in its own publicity and portfolios.

Rights of Refusal


Bureau Bonanza will not include in its designs, any text, images or other data which it deems to be immoral, offensive, obscene or illegal. All advertising material must conform to all standards laid down by all relevant advertising standards authorities. Bureau Bonanza also reserves the right to refuse to include submitted material without giving reason.

Bureau Bonanza is to be held in no way responsible for any such data being included.

Cancellation
