All of EstateVue’s products and services are limited to be used under the following conditions. We own all rights to our products and services. No rights of our delivered solutions are transferable to others. Our productions, solutions, delivered products and services underlie international copyright law and are intellectual property and may not be changed, copied or adapted by you and/or others.

No ownership or copyright in any material supplied by us to the client shall pass to the client. The clients and/or others do not have the right to resell our products completely or in part.

Customer assets & content

When entering these TC, it is the client's responsibility to supply us with all necessary supplies before production starts. This can include logos, corporate identity colors, text and other materials. All supplies have to be delivered digitally. To ensure a high quality standard, all Logo files must be provided in one (or more) of the following formats: Illustrator, PDF, EPS, Photoshop. Graphic and image files must be provided in one (or more) of these formats: Illustrator, PDF, EPS, Photoshop, TIFF, RAW, JPEG, GIF. If all supplies are not delivered before production starts, we cannot be held responsible for any production delays and product delivery delays.

Service

Point Person

Upon service order the client will have to supply us with a management contact person, responsible for all management communications.

We reserve the right to request a new contact person if the person responsible for the project is preventing us from: completing the job either by way of delayed or inconsistent communication, belligerent, condescending or argumentative, threatening or verbally abusive either in written or spoken word.

If we can not come to a suitable contact agreement and we both feel that the situation is untenable then the customer/website owner has the right to buy out the remaining balance of the website and remove the website from our control.

Launching and Approvals

LOCATION PHOTOGRAPHY: After project completion, the client will be presented with a base number of 4 images to immediately send to the MLS®. The remainder of the images will be directly uploaded into the EstateVue Platform. A project is considered finalized after the files are uploaded. Any time spent on revisions will add to the production time and will be charged accordingly.

WEBSITE: In some situations, the client will be sent an approval to launch form (***excluding Optimized EstateVue websites which are assigned a scheduled launch date). Once signed and submitted electronically, this form indicates that the client has sufficiently reviewed the website, is satisfied with the outcome of the product and verified that the information procured is correct. Any change once this form has been submitted is billable to the client at our regular posted hourly rate, regardless of the error, change, or addition in question.

CONTENT: SEO and content packages do not require review or approval by the client. Articles (blog posts), content additions, removal and editing of any portion of the website are made at our discretion to attain SEO results. Any alteration of the content, page layout and structure in any manner by the website owner, its employees or contractors, subsequently absolves EstateVue and it’s employees of any obligation to achieve ranking results in any of our SEO programs.

DATA: The client understands that the data is procured throughout Canada and other countries via multiple 3rd party data providers. Due to the volatile nature of the providers, systems and data integrity there could be issues related but not limited to incorrect information; price, sq. footage, address, agent details, photos and any other information deemed necessary for a real estate listing.

The client acknowledges that they have access to be able to correct any of these inaccuracies if they arise by manually logging into the platform and editing the listing information. It is not part of any service level package for EstateVue to guarantee that the data is accurate, timely or otherwise perfect. It is solely the responsibility of the client to ensure that listings are correct. Any cancellations due to data integrity issues are subject to the cancellation policies outlined below.

Maintenance and service interruption

We cannot be charged by the client or other parties, nor does a refund apply for server downtime, due to server maintenance, updates or any other causes that could temporarily interrupt our services and the presentation of the EstateVue Platform or any of its related services and/or products. This also applies to data inaccuracies.

Refunds & Cancellations

NO REFUNDS ARE AVAILABLE ONCE THE SIGNED STATEMENT OF WORK IS SUBMITTED.
