Terms of Service

Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using our services.

1. Introduction

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website, services, and products offered by DataFirst SEO ("we," "us," or "our"). By accessing our website at datafirstseo.com or using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Your continued use of our services after any changes indicates your acceptance of the modified Terms.

2. Service Description

DataFirst SEO provides search engine optimization (SEO) and related digital marketing services to business-to-business (B2B) companies. Our services may include, but are not limited to, technical SEO audits, keyword research, content strategy, on-page optimization, link building, and analytics.

We commit to using ethical, "white hat" SEO practices that comply with search engine guidelines. However, we cannot guarantee specific rankings or results, as search engines frequently update their algorithms and ranking factors.

3. Client Obligations

As a client, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate information about your business and website
  • Respond to our communications in a timely manner
  • Provide necessary access to your website, analytics, and other platforms as required to perform our services
  • Implement recommendations in a timely manner or authorize us to implement them
  • Use our services only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws

We reserve the right to terminate services if you engage in activities that violate search engine guidelines or may damage our reputation.

4. Payment Terms

Payment terms will be outlined in your service agreement or proposal. Unless otherwise specified:

  • Monthly services require payment in advance
  • Project-based services may require a deposit before work begins
  • Payment methods include credit card, direct deposit, and electronic funds transfer
  • Late payments may result in service suspension
  • We reserve the right to change our pricing with 30 days' notice

5. Intellectual Property

All materials, strategies, reports, and deliverables created by DataFirst SEO remain our intellectual property until full payment is received. After payment, clients receive a limited license to use these materials for their business purposes.

We respect intellectual property rights and expect our clients to do the same. Content created for your website should not infringe on any third-party rights.

6. Confidentiality

We treat client information as confidential and will not disclose sensitive business information to third parties without consent, except as required by law.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, DataFirst SEO shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages resulting from your use of our services.

Our total liability for any claims arising under these Terms shall not exceed the amount paid by you for the services in the six months preceding the claim.

We do not guarantee specific results, including rankings, traffic increases, or revenue growth, as these depend on many factors beyond our control.

  • Either party may terminate with 30 days' written notice
  • We may terminate immediately if you breach these Terms
  • You remain responsible for payment of services rendered prior to termination
  • Upon termination, we will provide a reasonable transition period to transfer necessary information
