Client  Representations Indemnification. Client agrees to indemnify, defend and hold RESULTS  MARKETING and its licensor(s), agents, representatives, employee and affiliates harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, damages, claims or causes of action, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, arising out of or related to (a) any breach (or alleged breach) of a Client Representation; (b)  Client’s failure to comply with all Laws; (c) any act, omission or fault of  Client or Client’s employees, agents or contractors in connection with the  Client’s use of the Services; (d) any claim that the Client Content or other information provided by Client violates any applicable law or infringes on any third party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property or proprietary right; (e) any breach of any applicable export control laws; (e) any transactions initiated through Client’s website and/or payment processing services.   Client’s approval of any website content for launch by the completion of payment or other form of authorization approves the use of all elements (photos, videos,  content) included therein before its publication or broadcast. Indemnification under this provision shall survive termination of this agreement.   

Hold  Harmless:   Client guarantees that any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs,  trademarks, or other artwork or content provided to RESULTS MARKETING for inclusion on Client’s Website or any other posting, public or private, are owned by Client or that Client has received permission from the rightful owner(s) to use each of the elements, and that Client will hold RESULTS  MARKETING harmless, protect and defend RESULTS MARKETING and its subcontractors from any liability, claim, or suit arising from the use of such elements,  including but not limited to any copyright, trademark and royalty infringements. 

Client acknowledges the following with respect to SEO services:  RESULTS MARKETING endeavors to perform its SEO services to provide Client with maximum effect. However,  Client acknowledges that RESULTS MARKETING has no control over the policies of search engines, directories, article publication and social bookmarking sites with respect to the type of sites and/or content or linking strategies that they accept now or in the future, all of which are subject to change without notice by the site provider. Due to the competitiveness of some keyword/phrases,  ongoing changes in search engine ranking algorithms, and other competitive factors, RESULTS MARKETING does not guarantee ranking positions for any particular keyword, phrase, or search term. Client site may be excluded from any of these at any time at the sole discretion of the search engine or other site. RESULTS MARKETING has no control over ongoing changes in search engine ranking algorithms that may affect client site ranking. Search engine algorithms change frequently and without notice and methods applied by RESULTS  MARKETING for optimization change frequently and may not work as effectively due to changes made by the site provider. Google has been known to hinder the rankings of new websites or pages until they have proven their viability to exist for whatever period of time Google is then using, which can change without notice, or until the site or pages have enough strength as considered by the particular search engine or site. RESULTS MARKETING disclaims all liability for ranking, traffic, indexing issues related to such penalties.  Consequently, Client understands that ranking new website or pages is much more difficult than ranking old and established sites and Client agrees to hold RESULTS  MARKETING harmless should RESULTS MARKETING’s efforts to raise the ranking,  traffic and/or revenue of any such new site or pages not result in immediate success. Client acknowledges that occasionally search engines will drop or modify listing for no apparent reason. Often the listing will reappear without any additional SEO efforts, but should Client identify any site which no longer identifies Client’s site, Client will immediately notify RESULTS MARKETING of this change.   

Technology  Limitations and Failures: Client acknowledges that tracking technology, websites, hosting, email, website forms and other technology-related components is subject to change without notice,  may be managed by others outside the control of RESULTS MARKETING, or can, at times and for any number of reasons, not be available for their intended use due to many factors within or beyond RESULTS MARKETING’s control.  Client acknowledges said limitations and will hold RESULTS MARKETING harmless for any possible damages resulting from any such technology limitations, malfunctions or failures whether or not such they are the result of actions or inactions taken by RESULTS MARKETING or within RESULTS MARKETING’s managerial control.  

No Inconsistent  Terms: In the event that RESULTS MARKETING, and/or its licensor’s Website has any terms that are inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.   

Governing law and jurisdiction. This  Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado and the parties exclusively submit to the jurisdiction of Arapahoe, Denver & Boulder County, Colorado,  with respect to any dispute arising from the enforceability of this Agreement or the claimed breach of any of its terms. All Digital Ads and/or Services shall be deemed to have been created in Arapahoe, Denver, or Boulder County, Colorado.   

Dispute resolution, waiver of class action and jury trial, and consent to binding arbitration. In the event Client asserts a claim that RESULTS MARKETING has failed to properly provide the Services identified in this Agreement, Client shall notify RESULTS  MARKETING of such alleged default, in detailed writing, and allow RESULTS  MARKETING a reasonable time, in no event to be less than ten (10) working days,  to commence appropriate corrective measures of any alleged deficiency (or demonstrate the absence of default) before terminating this Agreement or RESULTS  MARKETING’s services. Any dispute between Client and RESULTS MARKETING arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any breach thereof shall first be subject to mediation. In the event the dispute is not so resolved, such dispute shall be decided by arbitration. In any legal proceeding relating to this Agreement, the  Parties agree to waive any right they may have to participate in any class,  group, or representative proceeding and to waive any right they may have to a trial by jury. Any claim, controversy, or dispute that arises under or relates to this Agreement, including any dispute regarding any Service, omissions,  incorrect information, or other errors in RESULTS MARKETING’s work, shall be referred to binding arbitration under the Commercial Rules of the American  Arbitration Association. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction thereof.    

Legal fees and costs.  Should RESULTS MARKETING prevail in any affirmative claim, or successfully defend against Client’s claims, RESULTS MARKETING shall be entitled to its attorney’s fees and cost incurred therein.

Savings  Clause. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement are determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall  be modified to the minimum extent necessary for enforceability. To the extent it cannot be so modified, the Agreement shall be construed as if such provision(s) had never been contained herein.

No refunds for Ad Buys and other services once rendered. The client understands and agrees that payment for all Ad Buys and many other internet services is required in advance. Once RESULTS MARKETING places an ad campaign with any website on  Client’s behalf or obligates itself to any other service on Client’s behalf that requires pre-payment, Client agrees that it will not seek to cancel payment for that service with RESULTS MARKETING or any third-party credit administrator (Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, or any other credit card provider)  which Client uses to issue payment for this service to RESULTS MARKETING.  Client acknowledges that RESULTS MARKETING may provide Client’s credit card provider with proof the Ad Buys or other service was provided prior to Client’s efforts to cancel payment for those services, at which time Client authorizes its third-party credit administrator to reinstate payment to RESULTS MARKETING  without further inquiry.

RESULTS  MARKETING’s Remedies. If  Client does not pay all charges by 30 days after the due date, fail to meet any other obligation under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the  Parties, or make any Client Representation or warranty that is or becomes untrue, RESULTS MARKETING may, without notice: (i) require Client to pay immediately all unpaid amounts Client owes and will owe for all Services due for the entire term of this Agreement; (ii) remove from Publication any ads or other Services that have not been published; (iii) suspend or terminate any  Services without liability; (iv) recover all collection costs and attorneys’  fees, and (vii) pursue any other available legal or equitable remedies. If RESULTS  MARKETING receives notice from another party contesting Client’s right to use or display a name, trademark, service mark or other content, in addition to the remedies above, RESULTS MARKETING may, without liability to Client, suspend any further work on Client’s behalf until Client has resolved the dispute with the other party to RESULTS MARKETING’s satisfaction.

Confidentiality. Each party agrees to preserve the confidentiality of all the terms of the Agreement, including all financial provisions, and any information it has received from the other party in the performance of the Agreement which is not publicly available. The Parties acknowledge that during the course of the Agreement, a party (“Confidant”) may acquire or otherwise gain access to the other’s (“Discloser”) proprietary or confidential information (collectively, such entity’s “Confidential  Information”). Confidential Information shall not include any information which is (i) otherwise publicly available through no fault of the Confidant, (ii)  rightfully received from a third party in good faith on a non-confidential basis and not derived directly or indirectly from any breach of a  confidentiality obligation, (iii) independently developed by the Confidant without use of Discloser’s Confidential Information as evidenced by such party’s written records or (iv) disclosed pursuant to the receipt by the  Confidant of written permission from the Discloser to disclose.   

Agreement binding.   This Agreement is binding on and for the benefit of Client and its successors. RESULTS MARKETING may assign this Agreement, but Client may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement without RESULTS MARKETING’s prior written consent. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, RESULTS MARKETING shall not lose its rights under this  Agreement, even if RESULTS MARKETING does not enforce a right or delays in enforcing a right. RESULTS MARKETING shall not be liable for any damages arising from acts of God or events outside of RESULTS MARKETING’s reasonable control. Client agrees that its acceptance of this Agreement, given electronically, will have the same legal effect as if this Agreement had been personally signed in writing by Client. Imaged copy of this Agreement will be deemed a duplicate original for evidentiary purposes. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties, supersedes any previous understanding or agreement of the  Parties, and may be changed only by written instrument, signed by all Parties.  There are no representations, either oral or written, other than those set forth herein.
