These are conditions that are concerning all areas of digital marketing with WSI Winnipeg (Pecunia Non Olet Corp.) as an agency, whether they apply to this specific proposal or not. This is a balanced approach and protects both WSI Winnipeg (Pecunia Non Olet Corp.) and Quality Realty from intentional harm. These terms are also standard terms within the digital marketing industry and will be part of any contract with a digital marketing agency. 


These Terms and Conditions are intended to supplement those to which you and WSI Winnipeg (Pecunia Non Olet Corp.)(“Consultant”) agreed in connection with the forgoing Digital Marketing Proposal. Please read these terms and conditions carefully.


Term of Agreement and Payment of Fees. 

This Agreement is for a term of 3 months and shall automatically renew thereafter on a month to month basis unless earlier terminated by either party in accordance with this Agreement.

Third Parties. 

If applicable, a significant portion of the work relating to the design, development, hosting, operating and support of your website and/or advertising campaign will be done by one of WSI’s third party authorized suppliers.

Hosting and Website Support.

 If applicable, an authorized WSI supplier will host your website at one of its business data centers and will provide you with support and reports as called for in the Marketing Proposal.

You are and shall remain responsible for the content of your search engine listings, including any Google Places (Maps) and all other search engine results listings. Consultant shall provide you with recommended content and work diligently to improve the position of your web site listing and maps listing in the search engine results, but it has not guaranteed and cannot guarantee that your listing will show up in the results. Furthermore, you acknowledge that the search engines control whether or not a map or other listing appears in the results and in what position. You specifically understand and agree that neither Consultant nor WSI shall be liable for any costs incurred, or compensation or loss of earnings suffered, as a result of or related to your listing moving lower on the results page or disappearing entirely from the search engine results, and you hereby indemnify Consultant and WSI and hold both harmless from and against any such claims, damages, costs or losses.


Online Marketing and Advertising.

 You are and shall remain responsible for the content of any advertising, promotional and other materials displayed or used in connection with the services contemplated by this Agreement, and you agree to indemnify and hold Consultant and WSI harmless from and against any and all claims by regulatory or legal authorities or third parties arising under or relating to that content.
