This term of service is for businesses and individuals seeking legitimate, white-hat SEO support. It is not for use to manipulate search engines, distribute spam, or conduct unlawful activity.
What Are Your Responsibilities as a User?
You are responsible for the accuracy of information you submit, the security of access credentials you share, and compliance with applicable laws when using our Website and Services.
| Your responsibility | What this means in practice |
|---|---|
| Accurate information | Provide current and complete details in contact forms, onboarding forms, account creation, and requests for website, analytics, or hosting access. |
| Credential security | Keep CMS, Analytics, Search Console, and hosting logins confidential. Notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access. |
| Legal compliance | Use Services in compliance with U.S. intellectual property, privacy, and anti-spam laws, including CAN-SPAM, plus applicable state privacy laws such as CCPA/CPRA where relevant. International visitors remain responsible for laws that apply to them. |
| Lawful use only | Do not submit false information, attempt black-hat manipulation, or use Services for fraudulent, harmful, or illegal purposes. |
We may suspend access if use creates a security risk, violates law, or breaches these Terms.
What Do SEO Clients Need to Provide and Approve?
An SEO client must provide timely access, review proposed work before implementation, and avoid changes that undermine agreed SEO work during the engagement.
Specifically, if you engage our SEO services, you agree to:
- Provide timely access to necessary systems, such as website CMS, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and hosting, when required for the agreed scope.
- Review and approve strategies, target keywords, and content before we implement or publish them.
- Avoid unapproved site, theme, plugin, redirect, robots.txt, or hosting changes that could negatively affect SEO performance during the engagement.
- Understand that SEO outcomes depend on factors outside any agency’s control, including search algorithm updates, competitor actions, site history, and industry demand.
Clear approvals and stable implementation help reporting reflect actual SEO work rather than unrelated site changes.
How Is Intellectual Property Handled?
Website materials owned by SEOSERVICES1 stay owned by SEOSERVICES1, client materials stay owned by the client, and paid SEO deliverables are licensed to the client for business use.
- Our property: Text, graphics, logos, images, software, and code on SEOSERVICES1 are owned by SEOSERVICES1 or its licensors and protected by copyright and intellectual property law. Do not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works without express written permission.
- Client property: Website content, brand assets, product data, customer data, and analytics data you provide remain your property. We do not claim ownership of your content.
- Deliverables: Upon full payment, you receive a license to use SEO deliverables created for you — such as reports, optimized content, and keyword strategies — for your own business purposes.
- Portfolio use: We may request permission to reference anonymized results or case insights. We publish identifiable client work only with consent where required.
Do not upload content you do not have the right to share.
How Do Payments, Cancellation, and Refunds Work?
Fees, payment timing, taxes, cancellation notice, and refund calculation are governed by your proposal, quote, or service agreement. This term of service states only the general principles.
- Fees: Fees are as stated in your proposal, quote, or service agreement. Fees are non-refundable unless your written agreement states otherwise.
- Payment terms: Payments are due as outlined in your agreement, for example upfront, monthly, or upon milestones. Late payment may result in suspension of Services until payment is received.
- Late balances: We may charge interest on overdue balances at the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, if stated in your agreement.
- Taxes: Fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, duties, or levies. You are responsible for applicable taxes for your purchase.
- Cancellation by you: You may cancel by written notice under the procedure in your agreement. Any prepaid but unearned fees are refunded on a prorated basis, subject to cancellation fees stated in your agreement.
- Suspension or termination by us: We may suspend or terminate Services for breach of these Terms, non-payment, or illegal or harmful activity.
No specific ranking, traffic, lead, or revenue outcome is promised. SEO performance varies by competition, search intent, budget, site condition, and algorithm change.
What Disclaimers and Liability Limits Apply?
Our Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without express or implied warranties to the maximum extent permitted by law. Liability is limited as described below and in your service agreement.
Disclaimers include no warranty that Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that results will meet any particular expectation. Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and accuracy are disclaimed to the extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- SEOSERVICES1 and its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses.
- Total liability for any claim related to the Website or Services will not exceed the amount you paid to SEOSERVICES1 in the six months preceding the claim.
Some U.S. states do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so some limitations may not apply to you. Your service agreement may contain additional liability terms.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SEOSERVICES1 and its partners, employees, and agents from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your use of Services, breach of these Terms, violation of law or third-party rights, or content you provide.
How Are Third-Party Tools, Changes, and Governing Law Handled?
Third-party platforms have their own terms, these Terms may be updated with notice on this page, and disputes are handled under applicable law and your service agreement.
Third-party tools: SEO work may involve Google Analytics, Google Search Console, WordPress, hosting providers, Ahrefs, SEMrush, and similar platforms. Those tools are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, or performance, and data shared with them is subject to their policies.
Changes to Terms: We may revise this term of service from time to time. The revised version will be posted on this page with a new Effective Date. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms. Material changes may also be communicated by email or prominent Website notice.
Governing law: These Terms are governed by applicable U.S. law. If your proposal, quote, or service agreement identifies a specific state governing law and venue, that provision applies to your engagement. Regulated privacy, accessibility, and consumer-protection questions may require qualified legal review.
