These Terms shall apply to and be incorporated in the Contract. Any variation of the Contract shall be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the Client and Add People. The Terms will apply on the date of the written acknowledgement provided by Add People and the Services will commence within the agreed time thereafter.

These Terms apply as soon as we acknowledge receipt of the signed Contract and our Services will begin within an agreed time afterwards. |
Modifications of Terms
Add People reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace the Terms at any time. If the alterations constitute a substantial change to the Terms, we will notify you in writing (including via email) 14 days prior to the changes.

In addition, our Services may be interrupted from time to time as a result of equipment malfunction, as well as updates, maintenance and repairs of our systems that are outside the control of Add People. Add People reserves the right to suspend or discontinue the availability of any Service at any time and without prior notice. |
If our Terms change, we will notify you. Also, in the unlikely event that things go wrong, our Services may be interrupted. |
Our Responsibilities

In the event that the Client’s business is acquired or receives new ownership, the Charges must still be paid by the Client.

Also, if you cancel your Contract early, you will be required to pay out your remaining payments in full. |
