NARKED LTD does not control Search Engines’ algorithms and huge shifts can appear daily, weekly and even hourly.

Approval of Work

The Contract will remain in effect until all obligations have been completed in terms of this Clause.

4.4
Rejected Work
If the Client rejects the Work within the 7 day review period, or will not approve subsequent Work performed by NARKED LTD to remedy any points reported by the Client as unsatisfactory, and NARKED LTD considers that the Client is unreasonable in his repeated rejection of the Work, the contract will be deemed to have expired and NARKED LTD can take any legal measures to recover both payment for the completed Work and reasonable expenses incurred in recovering payment.

4.5
Payment
Upon completion of 7 day review period, NARKED LTD will invoice the Client for the 50% balancing payment in accordance with Clause 2.1 Fee Payable hereof, which, in the absence of agreement to the contrary, is to be paid by the Client within 21 days of the date that the invoice was issued.

4.6
Remedies for Overdue Payment
If payment has not been received by the due date, NARKED LTD has the right to suspend ongoing work for Client, until such time that full payment of the outstanding balance has been received. If full payment has still not been received 21 days after the due date, NARKED LTD has the right to replace, modify or remove the Website and revoke the Client's licence of the Work until full payment has been received.
