“Client,” “You” or “Your” means a company, entity or individual having work performed with Rounded Digital, sometimes under a SOW.
“Party” means Rounded Digital or Client, and “Parties” means FYD and Client collectively.
“SOW” or “Project” means one or more Rounded Digital Statements of Work”, “Services Agreements” or online transactions between Rounded Digital and You.
“Web Site” means a connected group of pages on the Internet.

Subject to these Terms and Conditions, Rounded Digital will provide the services set forth in any SOWs You accept (“Services”). Each SOW will only be effective when accepted by You and will be governed by these Terms and Conditions. Any revisions, additions or redesign You want Rounded Digital to perform that are not specified in a SOW shall be considered “additional,” will be the subject of a separate SOW and will be billed separately for the particular service.

The manner in which the Services are to be performed and the specific hours to be worked by Rounded Digital shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of Rounded Digital.

You agree to pay us a fee for the Services we perform for You in an amount provided in the SOW. All payments are to be paid in USD. You shall pay us according to the payment terms stated in the SOW, provided, however, that to the extent the SOW does not specify a payment schedule, You shall pay all fees and charges according to the payment terms stated on our invoice. You shall reimburse us for pre-approved travel and out-of-pocket expenses as provided in each SOW, upon receipt of our invoice for those charges, substantiated by receipts, paid invoices we received from others or other proof of payment. We will invoice You monthly. If a client’s payment due date falls on a Saturday or a Sunday, the client will be charged on the nearest previous business day, regardless of the invoice date.

Once an account is five (5) days past due, a late fee in the amount of $50.00 will be added to the total balance. This fee will increase by $10.00 USD per day until the account is paid in full, or until payment arrangements have been made and agreed upon by both parties.

If a client disputes or places a stop-payment on a payment without first notifying us or reaching out for a resolution, the website will be shut down immediately until future payment arrangements have been made. There is also a $250 one-time fee to reactivate the website. For reactivation of a website, the client must pay what is past due, along with the $250 reversal fee, and Rounded Digital reserves the right to require this be paid in certified funds or a cashiers check.

Accounts must be current and kept in good standing. Unless otherwise agreed upon, all payments are due before work is initiated. Rounded Digital reserves the right to suspend accounts and SOWs when payment is ten (10) days or more late. If payment is not received within thirty (30) days, Rounded Digital reserves the right to immediately terminate a Contract/SOW, in which case we will consider the account canceled, and our cancellation fees equal to 100% of the remaining contract amount will apply. Returned checks due to insufficient funds will be charged a $35.00 fee to cover the cost of bank fees.

You shall be deemed to have consented to the balance stated in any invoice unless You object to the invoice in writing within thirty (30) days. You shall reimburse Rounded Digital for all its reasonable attorney fees and its costs and expenses if Rounded Digital engages legal counsel to assist in the collection of any amounts past due to Rounded Digital pursuant to this Agreement, without regard to whether a settlement is reached or formal proceedings are commenced to effect collection. Rounded Digital shall be entitled to recover from You all such attorney fees, costs and expenses in any arbitration or legal proceedings related thereto, including any and all appeals of any arbitration award or court determination.

Both Parties acknowledge and agree that all documents and information that one Party provides to the other Party related to the marketing of the Web Site and all information concerning a Party’s pricing, costs and sales (the “Confidential Information”) will constitute the valuable trade secrets of the Party disclosing it. “Confidential Information” does not include any information that (a) can be seen by the public on the Web Site when each page of the Web Site is accessed, (b) that at the time of disclosure is within the public domain, (c) that becomes a part of the public domain after disclosure through no fault, act or failure to act, error, effort or breach of this Agreement by the recipient, (d) is known to the recipient at the time of disclosure, (e) is discovered by the recipient independently of any disclosure by the disclosing Party, or (f) is obtained from a third party who has a legal right to possess and disclose such information. Each Party shall keep the Confidential Information of the other Party in confidence, excluding the existence of a business relationship between Rounded Digital and You for publicity or marketing purposes, and shall not, at any time during or after the termination of the work under any SOW, disclose or otherwise make available to anyone, either directly or indirectly, all or any part of the Confidential Information or use the Confidential Information of the other Party for any purpose other than to exercise its rights or fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. The limitations on disclosure of a Party’s Confidential Information shall not apply to any Confidential Information that a Party is required by order, statute or regulation, of any government authority to be disclosed to any federal or state agency, court or other body, provided, however, that any Party directed to disclose Confidential Information pursuant to a subpoena or other legal compulsion shall use its best reasonable efforts under the circumstances to notify the Party claiming confidentiality of same, and thereafter, shall disclose no more of the other Party’s Confidential Information than it is legally compelled to disclose.

1. Each SOW shall commence on the SOW Effective Date and continue for the minimum term or through the completion date listed within the SOW. A failure to communicate the cancellation of the contract will result in the client going into month-to-month payments of the initial agreed-upon amount until a cancellation notice is received. Upon completion of the minimum term, Either Party may terminate any SOW upon thirty (30) days notice for its convenience upon providing prior written notice to the other Party, given that the date of termination within the notice is at least thirty (30) days from the date of notice, or if no termination date is stated, then effective upon thirty (30) days of giving of notice.

If the breach is not cured within such period, the non-breaching Party may terminate the SOW by providing the breaching Party with written notice of termination.
