  10. Sole Agreement.
       The agreement contained in terms and conditions constitutes the sole agreement between WebClientMagnet and the client for the agreed web site. The client may not hire another party, or attempt themselves, to promote the web site/services at any stage during the lifetime of the contract for each phase. Any such actions may prove detrimental to the work of WebClientMagnet during the promotion. In other words, please don't try to do the promotion yourself.
     

  11. Minimum notice.
      
    For all contracts there exists a minimum agreement term of 18 months, after which the customer must provide 4 months prior notice of termination of the agreement, if the customer wishes to end the arrangement. The notice must be provided by the authorized contact person only. The 12 month policy is in place to ensure that customers have time to see the results of our work. Search engines and directories can be very slow to add web sites and the process can take up to 6 months in some extreme cases. Therefore the arrangement between WebClientMagnet Web Site Promotion must exist for a minimum term of 18 paid months.
