These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Sequoia GEO website (sequoiageo.com) and services. By accessing or using our Site and services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Site or services.
Sequoia GEO provides digital marketing services for contractors and local service businesses, including but not limited to:
Specific services, deliverables, timelines, and pricing will be outlined in individual service agreements or proposals.
When you engage our services, you will enter into a separate service agreement that outlines the scope of work, deliverables, payment terms, and other specific terms. That service agreement, together with these Terms, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Sequoia GEO. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and a service agreement, the service agreement will prevail.
Fees for our services will be specified in your service agreement. Unless otherwise stated, fees are due upon receipt of invoice. We accept payment via credit card, ACH transfer, or check.
Invoices not paid within 30 days of the invoice date may be subject to a late fee of 1.5% per month (18% annually) or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. We reserve the right to suspend services for accounts with overdue balances.
For PPC and LSA management services, you are responsible for all advertising costs charged by third-party platforms (Google Ads, Google Local Services, etc.). These costs are separate from our management fees and are billed directly by the advertising platforms.
To enable us to provide effective services, you agree to:
While we use industry best practices and proven strategies, we cannot guarantee specific results, rankings, traffic levels, or revenue increases. Digital marketing results depend on many factors beyond our control, including market conditions, competition, platform algorithm changes, and your business operations.
SEO typically requires 3-6 months to show measurable results. PPC and LSA campaigns may show results within 2-4 weeks. Actual timelines vary based on market conditions, competition, and campaign specifics.
You retain ownership of all content, materials, and intellectual property you provide to us. By providing content, you grant us a license to use, modify, and display it for the purpose of providing our services.
Upon full payment, you own the final deliverables we create specifically for you (website designs, content, etc.). However, we retain ownership of our methodologies, processes, tools, templates, and any pre-existing intellectual property.
We may use your project as a case study or portfolio piece unless you request otherwise in writing. We will not disclose confidential information without your permission.
We will keep confidential any non-public information you share with us, including business strategies, financial information, and customer data. This obligation survives termination of our services. We may disclose confidential information if required by law or with your written consent.
The term of our services will be specified in your service agreement. Most services are provided on a month-to-month or fixed-term contract basis.
You may terminate services by providing 30 days' written notice. You remain responsible for payment of all fees incurred through the termination date, including any non-refundable setup fees or work in progress.
We may terminate services immediately if you breach these Terms, fail to pay invoices, or engage in conduct that damages our reputation or violates platform policies.
Upon termination, we will provide you with access to your accounts and any work product you have paid for. We are not responsible for maintaining or transferring data after termination unless separately agreed.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Sequoia GEO's total liability for any claims arising from our services will not exceed the total fees paid by you in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, or lost business opportunities.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sequoia GEO from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from: (1) your breach of these Terms, (2) your violation of any law or third-party rights, (3) content you provide to us, or (4) your use of our services.
Our services often involve third-party platforms (Google, Facebook, etc.). We are not responsible for changes to platform policies, algorithms, or pricing. You are responsible for complying with all platform terms of service. Platform suspensions or account issues beyond our control are not grounds for refunds or liability.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles.
Any disputes arising from these Terms or our services will be resolved through binding arbitration in Fresno, California, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. You waive the right to participate in class actions or class arbitrations.
We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last Updated" date. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.
