General Terms and Conditions of Sale

1. Subject Matter and Scope

These T&Cs define the conditions under which PageOneBoost ('the Service Provider') provides its natural search engine optimisation (SEO) services to professional or individual clients ('the Client'). Any order implies full and unconditional acceptance of these T&Cs, which take precedence over any other document from the Client, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

2. Services Offered

The Service Provider offers in particular the following packages:

• Essential Package — €300, one-time payment: intended for small businesses (micro-enterprises, tradespeople, retailers). It includes targeting of 50 keywords (local SEO within a 50 km radius or national), writing of 50 blog articles, generation of more than 5,000 static SEO pages, as well as technical and on-page optimisation of the website.
• Premium Package — €1,000, one-time payment: intended for SMEs and large companies. It includes targeting of 100 keywords (local and national), writing of 100 blog articles, generation of more than 10,000 static SEO pages, advanced technical SEO and a link-building service.
• Custom Package: scope and pricing defined specifically by quotation, according to the Client's needs.

The precise details of the services are defined in the quotation and/or purchase order accepted by the Client.

3. Quotation and Order

Each service is subject to a quotation or commercial proposal. The order is firm and final upon receipt of the signed quotation (or written acceptance, including by email) from the Client.

4. Pricing

Prices are stated in euros. Unless otherwise indicated, they are quoted exclusive of tax (ex. VAT); VAT at the applicable rate is added where applicable. The applicable rates are those in force on the date of the order. The Service Provider reserves the right to revise its rates, any such change being without effect on orders already validated and applicable only to subsequent orders.

5. Payment Terms

Services are settled by one-time payment. Unless otherwise agreed, the invoice is payable upon ordering, by bank transfer or credit card; a deposit may be requested before work commences.

In accordance with Articles L441-10 and D441-5 of the French Commercial Code, any late payment shall automatically give rise to late payment penalties calculated at the statutory interest rate plus a surcharge, as well as a fixed compensation for collection costs of €40, without prejudice to any other recourse.

6. Duration and Delivery

Services are provided in the context of a one-off project settled by one-time payment, with no subscription or tacit renewal. The project ends upon delivery of the agreed deliverables. In the event of cancellation by the Client after work has commenced, services already performed or engaged remain due.

7. Service Provider Obligations

The Service Provider is bound by a best-efforts obligation. It applies all its expertise and the necessary diligence to the proper execution of the services, in accordance with professional standards and search engine guidelines.

8. No Ranking Guarantee

Natural search engine optimisation depends on algorithms specific to search engines (in particular Google), over which the Service Provider has no control. Consequently, the Service Provider cannot guarantee a specific ranking, position, traffic volume or number of conversions. No performance guarantee may be inferred from examples, estimates or averages provided for indicative purposes.

9. Client Obligations

The Client undertakes to:

• provide in a timely manner the necessary access (website, hosting, analytics tools, Google Search Console, etc.) and required information;
• collaborate actively and validate deliverables within reasonable timeframes;
• warrant that it holds the rights to the content and elements it provides;
• settle invoices by the agreed due dates.

The Service Provider shall not be held liable for any delay or underperformance resulting from a breach by the Client of these obligations.

10. Intellectual Property

Deliverables (written content, recommendations, reports) become the property of the Client upon full payment of the amounts due. The Service Provider retains ownership of its methods, tools and know-how, and reserves the right to mention the project in its references, unless the Client objects in writing.

11. Confidentiality

Each party undertakes to maintain the confidentiality of information exchanged within the contractual relationship and not to disclose it to third parties without prior authorisation.

12. Liability

The Service Provider's liability is limited to direct and proven damages resulting from a proven fault in the performance of the services. In any event, it shall not exceed the amount of sums actually paid by the Client in respect of the last three (3) months of services. The Service Provider shall not be held liable for indirect damages (loss of revenue, clientele, data or reputation).

13. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be held liable for a failure to fulfil its obligations resulting from a force majeure event within the meaning of Article 1218 of the French Civil Code.

14. Personal Data

The processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with our privacy policy and the applicable regulations (GDPR).

15. Right of Withdrawal

In accordance with Article L221-3 of the French Consumer Code, the fourteen (14) day right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts concluded between professionals where the subject matter of the contract falls within the Client's main field of activity and the number of employees exceeds five.

Where the Client is a consumer within the meaning of the Consumer Code, they benefit from a right of withdrawal of fourteen (14) days from the conclusion of the contract. They acknowledge, however, that if they expressly request the commencement of services before the expiry of this period, they will be required to pay for the services actually performed up to the exercise of their right of withdrawal.

16. Complaints and Mediation

For any complaint, the Client may contact the Service Provider at contact@pageoneboost.com. In accordance with the Consumer Code, a consumer Client may have free recourse to a consumer mediator for the amicable resolution of a dispute: CM2C — Centre de la Médiation de la Consommation de Conciliateurs de Justice, 14 rue Saint-Jean, 75017 Paris (https://cm2c.net).

17. Applicable Law and Disputes

These T&Cs are governed by French law. In the event of a dispute, the parties shall endeavour to find an amicable solution. Failing that, and subject to the mandatory provisions applicable to consumers, the courts with jurisdiction over the Service Provider's registered office shall have sole competence.
