Meere Marketing Limited

Terms of Service

The terms you are agreeing to when you use this website or engage us to do work.

The short version. No tie-in on ongoing work — 30 days’ notice either way. Invoices are due in 7 days, with a 5 day grace period and then a £100 late fee. Everything we make becomes yours on final payment. We do not promise a number of leads, and we say so plainly rather than in small print.

01Who these terms are between

These terms are between you and Meere Marketing Limited, a company registered in Scotland (number SC783462), registered office 68 Old School Crescent, Mayfield, Dalkeith, EH22 5DW.

They apply in two situations: when you use this website, and when we do work for you. If we have given you a signed proposal or contract, that document governs the work and these terms fill in anything it does not cover. Where the two genuinely conflict, the signed document wins.

We work with businesses. These terms are written on that basis, and the consumer cancellation rights that apply to individuals buying for personal use do not apply to a business contract.

02Using this website

You may read it, print it and share links to it. You may not copy our copy, design or photography for your own commercial use, scrape it, or attempt to interfere with it. What is and is not acceptable is set out in our Acceptable Use Policy.

The case studies and figures on this site are real and dated. They describe what was achieved for a particular client in particular circumstances, and they are not a promise that the same will happen for you — see section 9.

03Quotes, proposals and when a contract starts

A price we give you is valid for 30 days unless the document says otherwise.

A contract starts when you sign the proposal or contract we send you. Signing is a typed full name and a tickbox, which is a valid electronic signature under the Electronic Communications Act 2000 — the same as signing on paper. We counter-sign before sending, so what you receive is already signed by us.

Work starts once the first payment has cleared, not when the document is signed.

04Fees and payment

Our prices are in pounds sterling. We are not VAT registered, so the price quoted is the whole price and there is no VAT to add.

Unless your document says otherwise:

  • Project work (a website, for example) is 50% on signature and 50% once you have seen the finished work and approved it. The site goes live when the second payment clears.
  • Ongoing work (advertising management and the like) is invoiced monthly in advance.
  • Invoices are payable by bank transfer within 7 days, or by card using the payment link on the invoice.

Advertising budget is separate from our fee. What you spend with Meta, Google or any other platform is paid by you to that platform on your own card. We never take a margin on it and it never appears on our invoice.

05Late payment

Invoices are payable by the date shown on the invoice.

If a payment fails, or an invoice is still unpaid after that date, there is a 5 day grace period to settle it. Nothing is added during those 5 days and a reminder is all you will get.

Once the grace period has passed, a £100 late fee is added. It is a single charge per invoice to cover the cost of chasing it — not a daily charge, and it does not compound.

If an invoice remains unpaid after the grace period we may also pause work and pause live advertising campaigns until it is settled. We will tell you before we do, rather than letting your campaigns go dark without warning.

We reserve our statutory rights. Under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 we are entitled to interest and fixed compensation on overdue commercial debts; the fee above is charged instead of pursuing those routinely, not in addition to any remedy we are later obliged to use. Reasonable costs of recovering a genuinely unpaid debt are recoverable from you.

06Ongoing work: no tie-in, 30 days’ notice

Advertising management and other ongoing services run month to month. There is no minimum term, no fixed contract and no automatic annual renewal.

Either of us can end it by giving 30 days’ written notice. Email counts as writing. You pay for the notice period, we work it properly, and at the end of it we hand over what is yours (section 10).

Project work is not a subscription and is not covered by this section — it ends when the project is delivered and paid for.

07What we need from you

Most delays are not technical. To do the work we need, in reasonable time:

  • Content, photographs, logos and brand material that you own or have the right to use.
  • Access to the accounts we need — advertising, hosting, domain, analytics — and for you to keep that access live while we are working.
  • Decisions and approvals when we ask for them, and one named person able to give them.
  • Accurate information about your business, including anything that affects what we are allowed to advertise.

If work stalls waiting on you for more than 30 days we may invoice for what has been done and close the project. Picking it back up afterwards is fine and we will not charge you twice for the same work.

08Advertising platforms are not ours

We run campaigns on platforms owned by other companies — Meta and Google chief among them. Their rules are theirs and they change them without telling us.

So: we cannot guarantee an advert will be approved, that an account will not be restricted, or that a platform will not change how its system works mid-campaign. We will tell you promptly when it happens, and we will do the work to put it right. What we cannot do is be responsible for their decision.

Advertising accounts and the data in them remain yours. Where we work inside your account we do so with your permission and you can withdraw it at any time.

09What we do and do not promise

We promise to do the work with reasonable skill and care, to the standard you would expect from a professional agency, and to tell you the truth about how it is going.

We do not promise a particular number of leads, a particular cost per lead, a particular position in search results, or a particular return. Anyone who does is guessing, and marketing results depend on your market, your pricing, your capacity and how quickly you answer the phone — most of which is yours, not ours.

Where we have given you a specific written guarantee, that guarantee is binding on exactly the terms it is written in. This section does not cancel it.

10Who owns the work

Everything we make for you — website, copy, design, creative — becomes yours outright on final payment. Before final payment it remains ours, which is the only real security we have.

Three things sit outside that. Material licensed from someone else (stock photography, fonts, plugins) is governed by that licence and passes to you on the same terms. Our own tools, templates, processes and internal systems stay ours — you are buying the output, not the workshop. And we may show finished work in our portfolio and case studies unless you ask us in writing not to, which you are free to do at any time.

11Hosting and support

Where we host a site we build, hosting is included for as long as you are a client. If you leave, we will hand over the files and help your new provider take it on; we will not hold a site hostage.

The 30 days after launch include hands-on support and training. After that, a quick question is still a quick question and we will not bill you for it. Anything that is really new work is quoted first, and you decide before it starts.

12Confidentiality

We will not disclose your commercial information to anyone outside our team and our suppliers, and we expect the same of you regarding our pricing and methods. This survives the end of the contract.

How we handle personal data is set out in our Privacy Policy. Where we process personal data on your behalf — your leads and customers — we do so under your instructions as your processor, with the terms required by Article 28 UK GDPR.

13Liability

Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited. Those limits are not ours to set and we are not trying to.

Subject to that, and because this is a business-to-business contract:

  • Our total liability for all claims connected with the work is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.
  • We are not liable for loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of anticipated savings, loss of business or loss of goodwill, where that loss is indirect.
  • We are not liable for advertising spend you paid to a platform, or for a platform’s own decisions (section 8).

You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of what you ask us to publish about your business, and for having the rights to material you give us. If a claim is made against us because of something you supplied, we may pass the cost of it to you.

14Ending the contract

Ongoing work ends on 30 days’ notice (section 6). Either of us may end any contract immediately, in writing, if the other materially breaches it and has not put it right within 14 days of being asked, or becomes insolvent.

On ending: you pay for work done and for anything we have committed to on your behalf; we hand over work that has been paid for, together with access to accounts that are yours; and we stop. Sections that are meant to last — ownership, confidentiality, liability — carry on.
