DISPUTE RESOLUTION 

Binding Arbitration

If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website
www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Mesa County, Colorado. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Mesa County, Colorado, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Arbitration 

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration:

(a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party;

(b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and

(c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

  10. Guarantees and Warranties: Agency does not in any way guarantee increased traffic to your site, increase of revenue or profitability, increase of exposure, or anything that is not explicitly stated in this agreement. Agency will warranty all services that are contained within this scope of work and guarantees that all work will be performed and completed as stated. Agency will make every reasonable effort, in accordance to industry standards, to ensure the success of your website, however even with advanced SEO services, search engine placement is not guaranteed. Please see https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35291?hl=en to learn more about why we cannot guarantee placement.  According to an Ahref.com study, the average Top 10 ranking page is 2+ years old. And those that rank at position #1 are almost 3 years old and only 22% of pages that currently rank in the Top10 were created within 1 year.  This study selected 2 million pages that were crawled a year prior and Only 5.7% of all studied pages ranked in the Top10 search results within 1 year for at least 1 keyword. Looking into these 5.7% of “lucky” pages to see how quickly they got from nowhere to the Top 10, the majority of them managed to achieve that in approximately 61 to 182 days. In conclusion, the reason the 5.7% got to the Top 10 in less than a year is most likely hard work and great knowledge of SEO, not luck, so please consider realistic expectations as it relates to this project.
  11. Working with third parties: Agency will only accept requests from Client or Clients authorized employees, Agency will not perform any services requested by third parties.  Should Client require Agency to work directly with Clients suppliers, vendors, or any other third party, this will be in addition to the fees associated in this agreement.  All third party work, unless explicitly stated in this agreement will be billed at $89 per hour.
  12. Release of liability: By entering into this agreement, you hereby agree to release and hold harmless, Agency, its trustees, officers, servants, agents, volunteers and employees (hereafter referred to as the “Releases”) from and against any and all liabilities, losses, demands, or claims, that I and/or my company may sustain from this service.  You also waive the right to sue in a court of law for anything relating to this service or agreement that has not been a direct breach of this agreement and only after you bring any issue to the attention of Agency, in writing, and allow up to 7 business days to remedy those issues may you have the right to sue. You also agree to not publicly disparage Agency in anyway. Agency may, at anytime by providing a seven calendar day notice, cancel any hosting and editing packages. If Agency terminates Clients hosting, Agency will refund a prorated portion of unused hosting fees.  Agency reserves the right, at its sole discretion and without penalty, to cancel contract and refund any money paid within 30 days should Agency become aware of a pricing error, unauthorized addendum, or any additional errors that agency has been made aware of.
  13. Domain Name: Agency will only make record changes and offer complimentary support on domains we have in our GoDaddy account.  If you choose to remain the account holder all changes and updates will need to be performed by you or your IT company.  If you require Fusion Group USA’s assistance making changes or updating records, we will bill you $89 per hour with a 15 minute minimum fee.
  14. Email Hosting: Email hosting is included free of charge in your hosting package.  Fusion Group does not provide complimentary setup for email accounts.  Should you require assistance setting up email accounts on your devices or computers we will bill you a one time $99 set up fee for up to 5 devices.  We do provide detailed instructions on how to set up your accounts should you not want to pay for this service.
  15. Hosting and Editing Further Defined: After execution of this agreement Agency will include 12 months of our “Standard” hosting package complimentary.  Hosting will auto renew, with OR without advanced notice to you for an additional 12 months billed in monthly installments of $39.99 per month or $399 per year, payment at your discretion.  Each renewal term is a minimum 12 months.  Should you choose to upgrade to our “Full Service” hosting within the 1st year, this will cancel your current plan and commit to a new 12 month hosting agreement, Agency will bill you a pro rata difference to the end of its new term.  Should you choose to host the site with another provider, you will become immediately responsible for any and all updates, registrations, security, billing and support needed.  All sites built by Agency under standard rate published on  https://fusiongroupusa.com must be hosted on Fusion Group USA’s Servers.  If you would like the site export Agency will bill you $499 for standard sites and $129 per hour for enterprise sites to remove and redevelop any proprietary or licensed code/plugin before an export can be sent.  If Client hires Agency to develop a website property and has been provided a custom quotation indicating Client has right to a site export the previous statement does not apply.
  16. The following are our hosting packages defined:
    1. FULL SERVICE – $599 per year per month, all inclusive, Includes hosting, email, SSL, daily backups, unlimited full site editing and new page creation, training, support, and store management (if applicable).

IMPERATIVE ON-PAGE:

In Order to facilitate the work of SEO, it is imperative that the Company be provided the credentials to web properties owned by the client, if not already under control of the Company or has been provided by the Company. In addition to this, On-Page recommendations must be implemented in the first 30 days of every Campaign. The company does not warrant the effectiveness or lack thereof of performance if the On-Page recommendations it sets forth in accordance with this agreement are not implemented or whole implementation is not facilitated.

ALGORITHM UPDATES:

SEO, Social Media, and Digital Marketing is an ever changing environment. We are a company that prides itself in A-B Testing all our proprietary processes before they are implemented on client sites. Despite our testing, the industry is heavily driven by  the algorithm developed by Google, Facebook and other technology companies. We do not warrant our work from negative performance that are driven by algorithm changes.

WARRANTIES ON HUMAN ERROR:

In order to retain a natural feel and behavior to our strategy, many of our activities are people-intervened, and therefore it is impossible to remove human error  from the process.

Should there be questions arising due to the quality or volume of work, we would be more than happy to correct the situation and address the error and complete the fulfillment. Your active participation and vigilance in monitoring the quality of work is not just appreciated, but integral to our mutual success.

GUARANTEES

Agency does not in any way guarantee increased traffic to your site, increase of revenue or profitability, increase of exposure, or anything that is not explicitly stated in this agreement. Agency will warranty all services that are contained within this scope of work and guarantees that all work will be performed and completed as stated. Agency will make every reasonable effort, in accordance to industry standards, to ensure the success of your website, however even with advanced SEO services, search engine placement is not guaranteed. Please see
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35291?hl=en to learn more about why we cannot guarantee placement.  According to an A Href study, the average Top10 ranking page is 2+ years old. And those that rank at position #1 are almost 3 years old and only 22% of pages that currently rank in the Top10 were created within 1 year.  This study selected 2 million pages that were crawled a year prior and Only 5.7% of all studied pages ranked in the Top10 search results within 1 year for at least 1 keyword. Looking into these 5.7% of “lucky” pages to see how quickly they got from nowhere to the Top10, the majority of them managed to achieve that in approximately 61 to 182 days. In conclusion, the reason the 5.7% got to the Top10 in less than a year is most likely hard work and great knowledge of SEO, not luck, so please consider realistic expectations as it relates to this project.
