TERMS OF
BUSINESS
Unless otherwise agreed below, these terms and conditions of ETHORITY Global Network, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “contractor”) apply exclusively to all orders. Deviating or supplementary conditions of the customer (hereinafter referred to as “client”) as well as side agreements are only binding if they are confirmed in writing by the contractor.

ETHORITY » BUSINESS TERMS & CONDITIONS
Execution Of Contract / Scope Of Services / Fees
1. Obligations of the contractor

The contractor undertakes to protect business secrets, which are communicated to it by the client in the context of placing the order / order execution, with the diligence of a prudent businessman and to treat all related information and documents confidentially.
The contractor undertakes to carry out the execution of the contract in close coordination with the client. For this purpose, the contractor usually creates a service description, from which the scope of the contractual services and your fee claim result. If no fee has been determined for a contractual service of the contractor, the fee claim is calculated according to the price list of the contractor valid at the time of the assignment.
If the contractor makes an additional effort that was not yet recognizable at the time the contract was concluded, e.g. B. due to change and / or supplementary orders from the customer, this additional effort is to be remunerated according to the hourly rates agreed between the parties. If no hourly rates have been agreed between the parties, the client owes remuneration for the additional work in the amount of the contractor’s price list applicable at the time the order was placed.
The contractor is generally permitted to have the services to be provided by third parties as vicarious agents. This only does not apply if there is an important reason in the person of the third party.
Unless otherwise stated in the service description, the contractor is not obliged to check the services commissioned by the customer for their admissibility under trademark, competition or copyright law. If the contractor is commissioned with such an inspection by the customer, the customer shall bear the resulting costs and/or fees of third parties (lawyers, authorities, etc.) at standard market conditions.
If the client is granted access to the contractor’s servers/dashboards, the client’s right to access ends with the underlying contract, unless the parties have agreed otherwise.

2. Obligations of the client

The client undertakes to provide the contractor with all the information required for the execution of the respective order in a timely manner. Insofar as the customer provides the contractor with working documents (e.g. photos, logos, texts, etc.) that the contractor uses in the course of carrying out the order for the customer, the customer must deliver these working materials free of third-party rights and the contractor must be free from any third-party claims for damages to release.
Insofar as the client is given work results for approval by the contractor
(e.g. printed matter, films, websites, statistics, etc.) are submitted, the customer must finally check the work results for correctness and completeness and release them. With the release, the client assumes responsibility for the correctness of content, text, image and sound.
If the contractor is commissioned to provide services that can be registered or protected (e.g. trademark rights, copyrights, design rights and utility model rights), it is the client’s responsibility to have the registration or protectability legally checked. The contractor’s services are therefore also provided in accordance with the contract if they cannot be registered or protected.
If the contractor owes a certain work success, the client is obliged to accept the work. If the work essentially corresponds to the contractual agreements, the acceptance shall be deemed to have taken place and be in accordance with the contract unless it is declared or refused within seven working days of receipt.
If the client is granted access to the contractor’s servers/dashboards, the client must ensure that its use prevents the transfer of so-called malware to the contractor’s servers.

3. Supervision of the production of advertising media/advertising media

As part of the execution of the contract, the contractor selects suitable advertising material manufacturers and/or advertising material carriers. Orders to advertising material manufacturers and/or advertising material carriers are only placed in text form after approval by the client. Within the framework of the execution of the contract, the contractor takes over the coordination of the production process as well as the performance and price control of the respective advertising material manufacturer services.

TERMS OF
BUSINESS
Unless otherwise agreed below, these terms and conditions of ETHORITY Global Network, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “contractor”) apply exclusively to all orders. Deviating or supplementary conditions of the customer (hereinafter referred to as “client”) as well as side agreements are only binding if they are confirmed in writing by the contractor.

Execution Of Contract / Scope Of Services / Fees
1. Obligations of the contractor

The contractor undertakes to protect business secrets, which are communicated to it by the client in the context of placing the order / order execution, with the diligence of a prudent businessman and to treat all related information and documents confidentially.
The contractor undertakes to carry out the execution of the contract in close coordination with the client. For this purpose, the contractor usually creates a service description, from which the scope of the contractual services and your fee claim result. If no fee has been determined for a contractual service of the contractor, the fee claim is calculated according to the price list of the contractor valid at the time of the assignment.
If the contractor makes an additional effort that was not yet recognizable at the time the contract was concluded, e.g. B. due to change and / or supplementary orders from the customer, this additional effort is to be remunerated according to the hourly rates agreed between the parties. If no hourly rates have been agreed between the parties, the client owes remuneration for the additional work in the amount of the contractor’s price list applicable at the time the order was placed.
The contractor is generally permitted to have the services to be provided by third parties as vicarious agents. This only does not apply if there is an important reason in the person of the third party.
Unless otherwise stated in the service description, the contractor is not obliged to check the services commissioned by the customer for their admissibility under trademark, competition or copyright law. If the contractor is commissioned with such an inspection by the customer, the customer shall bear the resulting costs and/or fees of third parties (lawyers, authorities, etc.) at standard market conditions.
If the client is granted access to the contractor’s servers/dashboards, the client’s right to access ends with the underlying contract, unless the parties have agreed otherwise.

Insofar as the client is given work results for approval by the contractor
(e.g. printed matter, films, websites, statistics, etc.) are submitted, the customer must finally check the work results for correctness and completeness and release them. With the release, the client assumes responsibility for the correctness of content, text, image and sound.
If the contractor is commissioned to provide services that can be registered or protected (e.g. trademark rights, copyrights, design rights and utility model rights), it is the client’s responsibility to have the registration or protectability legally checked. The contractor’s services are therefore also provided in accordance with the contract if they cannot be registered or protected.
If the contractor owes a certain work success, the client is obliged to accept the work. If the work essentially corresponds to the contractual agreements, the acceptance shall be deemed to have taken place and be in accordance with the contract unless it is declared or refused within seven working days of receipt.
