The exact scope, price, timeline, and deliverables for a specific service will normally be described in a proposal, quote, invoice, written agreement, email confirmation, or project specification.
5. Proposals and Quotes
Proposals and quotes are based on the information available at the time they are prepared. A proposal may include assumptions regarding project scope, required content, technical requirements, third-party services, timelines, customer responsibilities, and estimated work.
Unless otherwise stated, proposals and quotes are valid only for the period stated in the proposal or quote. If no validity period is stated, Bremnes Data & Consulting may change or withdraw the proposal before it is accepted.
A proposal or quote may be considered accepted when the customer confirms acceptance in writing, pays an invoice, gives instructions to start work, provides required access, or otherwise clearly approves the service.
6. Prices, Fees, and Payment
Prices, payment schedules, deposits, recurring fees, due dates, and currency will be stated in the relevant proposal, quote, invoice, service agreement, or order confirmation.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices must be paid by the due date stated on the invoice.
Bremnes Data & Consulting may require payment before starting work, purchasing third-party services, registering domains, setting up hosting, delivering final files, transferring ownership, or launching a website.
Late payment may result in delayed work, suspension of services, withholding of deliverables, or termination of services where permitted by applicable law and agreement.
7. Taxes, VAT, and Public Fees
Prices may be shown with or without VAT, taxes, public fees, transaction fees, domain fees, licence fees, or third-party charges depending on the offer, invoice, and customer type.
The customer is responsible for paying all agreed prices, applicable taxes, public fees, third-party costs, and other charges connected to the services ordered.
8. Customer Responsibilities
The customer is responsible for providing accurate, complete, and timely information required for the delivery of services.
Customer responsibilities may include:
- Providing website content, images, videos, logos, product information, and branding materials
- Providing access to hosting, domains, CMS systems, email accounts, databases, and third-party platforms
- Reviewing and approving designs, content, functionality, proposals, and technical work
- Testing delivered work and reporting issues within a reasonable time
- Ensuring that supplied content is lawful and does not infringe third-party rights
- Keeping passwords, accounts, and access credentials secure
- Maintaining correct billing and contact information
- Complying with applicable laws, regulations, third-party terms, and licence requirements
Delays in receiving information, content, access, approvals, or feedback from the customer may delay delivery and may affect agreed timelines.
9. Project Scope and Additional Work
The agreed project scope is limited to the work described in the accepted proposal, quote, agreement, or written confirmation.
Work outside the agreed scope may be treated as additional work and may require a separate quote, revised timeline, or additional invoice.
Additional work may include, but is not limited to:
- Additional pages, layouts, features, or integrations
- Extra design revisions beyond what was agreed
- Changes to approved designs, approved content, or completed work
- Repair of issues caused by customer changes or third-party changes
- Emergency support, urgent troubleshooting, malware cleanup, or recovery work
- Work caused by missing information, incorrect information, or changed requirements
10. Timelines and Delivery
Delivery dates and timelines are estimates unless expressly agreed as fixed deadlines in writing.
Timelines may depend on customer response times, content delivery, access to systems, third-party services, hosting conditions, software compatibility, technical issues, payment status, and other factors outside Bremnes Data & Consulting’s direct control.
Bremnes Data & Consulting will make reasonable efforts to deliver services within agreed or estimated timelines, but we are not responsible for delays caused by customer actions, third-party providers, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
11. Review, Approval, and Acceptance
The customer is responsible for reviewing delivered work, testing relevant functionality, and reporting issues within a reasonable time.
Work may be considered accepted when the customer approves it in writing, uses the delivered solution, publishes the work, pays the final invoice, or does not report material issues within a reasonable review period.
Minor issues, adjustments, or corrections do not normally prevent acceptance unless they materially affect the agreed functionality or agreed deliverables.
12. Recurring Services
Recurring services may include hosting, support, maintenance, monitoring, backups, consulting retainers, automation services, or other ongoing services.
Recurring services continue until cancelled according to the applicable agreement, invoice terms, service plan, or written cancellation arrangement.
If payment for recurring services is not received by the due date, Bremnes Data & Consulting may suspend or terminate the relevant service after reasonable notice where appropriate.
13. Hosting, Domains, Email, and External Providers
Some services may depend on third-party providers, including hosting companies, domain registrars, DNS providers, SSL providers, email providers, payment providers, CMS extension developers, software vendors, API providers, and automation platforms.
Bremnes Data & Consulting is not responsible for downtime, price changes, policy changes, software bugs, service limitations, account restrictions, API changes, security incidents, or discontinued services caused by third-party providers unless otherwise agreed in writing.
The customer is responsible for complying with the terms, policies, licences, and acceptable use rules of third-party providers used in connection with their project or service.
14. Website Content and Legal Compliance
The customer is responsible for all content supplied to Bremnes Data & Consulting or published on the customer’s website.
This includes, but is not limited to, text, images, videos, product descriptions, pricing, claims, legal notices, downloads, trademarks, privacy notices, cookie notices, and customer-facing information.
The customer must ensure that their website content and business activities comply with applicable laws, intellectual property rights, marketing rules, privacy rules, consumer protection rules, and industry-specific requirements.
15. Access Credentials and Security
Where the customer provides login details, API keys, server credentials, CMS accounts, hosting access, or other access credentials, the customer confirms that they are authorised to provide such access.
The customer should use secure methods for sharing access credentials. Bremnes Data & Consulting may recommend secure credential-sharing methods where appropriate.
The customer remains responsible for user management, permissions, passwords, two-factor authentication, and access control on their own systems unless a separate administration or maintenance agreement applies.
16. Backups
Unless backup services are specifically included in a written agreement, the customer is responsible for keeping reliable and current backups of websites, databases, email accounts, files, and other digital assets.
Where backup services are provided, backups may still be subject to technical limitations, storage limits, retention periods, third-party provider availability, configuration settings, and restore limitations.
The customer should verify that backups are working and suitable for their business needs.
17. Support and Maintenance
Support and maintenance are included only if stated in the relevant proposal, invoice, agreement, or service plan.
Support may include reasonable assistance with technical issues, updates, configuration, questions, bug fixes, or guidance, depending on the service purchased.
Support does not normally include new features, major redesigns, extensive training, third-party platform issues, customer-caused problems, emergency work, malware cleanup, or problems caused by unauthorised changes unless specifically included or separately agreed.
18. Acceptable Use
Customers must not use our services, systems, hosting, support channels, websites, or delivered solutions for unlawful, harmful, abusive, fraudulent, or unauthorised purposes.
Prohibited use may include:
- Illegal content or illegal activity
- Spam, phishing, fraud, malware, or deceptive activity
- Unauthorised access to systems, accounts, or data
- Distribution of malicious code or harmful files
- Violation of intellectual property rights
- Harassment, threats, abuse, or discriminatory content
- Excessive server load, resource abuse, or service disruption
- Any activity that may damage Bremnes Data & Consulting, its customers, providers, systems, or reputation
Bremnes Data & Consulting may suspend or terminate services if unacceptable use is detected or reasonably suspected.
19. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the customer owns the final customer-specific website content, custom text, and customer-specific materials created and paid for as part of the agreed project.
Bremnes Data & Consulting may retain ownership of reusable tools, code libraries, templates, frameworks, workflows, methods, documentation, internal systems, generic components, know-how, and pre-existing materials used to deliver services.
Third-party software, CMS platforms, extensions, plugins, templates, fonts, images, APIs, scripts, and other external materials remain subject to their own licences and terms.
The customer may not resell, redistribute, copy, or claim ownership of third-party software or reusable Bremnes Data & Consulting materials unless this is clearly permitted by licence or written agreement.
20. Portfolio and References
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Bremnes Data & Consulting may refer to completed work in a portfolio, case study, proposal, website, social media post, or marketing material.
This may include the customer’s business name, website link, public screenshots, and a general description of the work performed.
Confidential information, sensitive information, private login areas, unpublished material, and non-public business information will not be published without permission.
21. Confidentiality
Bremnes Data & Consulting will treat non-public customer information as confidential where the information is clearly confidential by nature or has been identified as confidential.
Confidential information may include login details, business information, technical configurations, customer data, project materials, unpublished content, and private communications.
Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is already public, independently developed, lawfully received from another source, or required to be disclosed by law.
22. Privacy and Data Protection
Bremnes Data & Consulting processes personal data according to our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection rules.
Where Bremnes Data & Consulting processes personal data on behalf of a customer, the customer may be the data controller and Bremnes Data & Consulting may act as a data processor. In such cases, a data processing agreement may be required.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that their own websites, forms, databases, newsletters, analytics tools, cookies, and third-party integrations comply with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
23. Consumer Rights and Right of Withdrawal
If the customer is a consumer and the purchase is subject to mandatory consumer cancellation rights under applicable law, the customer may have a right to withdraw from the purchase within the legally required period.
If the consumer requests that work starts before the withdrawal period has expired, the consumer may be required to pay for services already delivered if permitted by applicable law.
For digital content, custom-made services, completed services, domain registrations, and business-to-business services, cancellation rights may be limited or may not apply depending on the circumstances and applicable law.
24. Cancellations and Termination
Either party may cancel or terminate services according to the relevant proposal, invoice, agreement, service plan, or written cancellation arrangement.
Cancellation does not remove the customer’s obligation to pay for work already performed, expenses already incurred, third-party services already purchased, domain registrations, licences, hosting periods, setup work, or recurring services already delivered.
Bremnes Data & Consulting may suspend or terminate services if the customer fails to pay invoices, breaches these Terms, misuses services, provides unlawful content, causes security risks, or fails to cooperate in a way that prevents service delivery.
25. Refunds
Refunds are handled according to the applicable proposal, invoice, agreement, service plan, and mandatory law.
Payments for completed work, started work, custom development, consulting time, setup fees, domain registrations, third-party licences, hosting periods, and non-recoverable costs are normally not refundable unless required by law or expressly agreed in writing.
26. No Guarantee of Specific Results
Bremnes Data & Consulting may provide services intended to improve website quality, performance, usability, search visibility, security, automation, efficiency, or business presentation.
However, Bremnes Data & Consulting does not guarantee specific rankings, traffic levels, sales, conversion rates, revenue, uptime, search engine placement, approval by third-party platforms, or business outcomes unless expressly agreed in writing.
27. Service Limitations
Services are provided with reasonable care and professional effort based on the agreed scope.
Websites, CMS platforms, hosting environments, extensions, plugins, integrations, APIs, email systems, automation tools, and third-party services may be affected by technical changes, compatibility issues, updates, security risks, or circumstances outside our control.
Bremnes Data & Consulting does not guarantee that any website, system, integration, or service will be completely error-free, uninterrupted, permanently compatible, immune from security issues, or suitable for every possible use case.
28. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Bremnes Data & Consulting shall not be liable for indirect loss, loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of data, loss of goodwill, downtime, consequential damages, or damages caused by third-party services.
Any liability connected to paid services shall be limited to the amount paid by the customer for the specific service giving rise to the claim, unless otherwise required by mandatory law or expressly agreed in writing.
29. Force Majeure
Bremnes Data & Consulting is not responsible for delay, failure, interruption, or non-performance caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Such circumstances may include internet outages, hosting failures, cyberattacks, power failures, natural events, war, strikes, government actions, supplier failures, third-party platform outages, serious illness, or other unforeseen events.
30. Changes to Services
Bremnes Data & Consulting may update, improve, replace, suspend, or discontinue services, website content, service descriptions, pricing, or technical solutions where necessary.
For active customer services, material changes will normally be communicated where reasonable and relevant.
31. Changes to These Terms and Conditions
Bremnes Data & Consulting may update these Terms and Conditions when necessary to reflect changes in our services, business practices, legal requirements, technology, pricing, or operational needs.
The latest version will be published on our website with an updated revision date.
32. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of Norway, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
The parties should first attempt to resolve disputes through good-faith dialogue.
